Answer: How long after consultation should you have surgery
The first priority is that you are in good overall medical health before considering a mommy makeover. You will need to be seen by your primary care physician to have medical clearance prior to surgery. After your consultation you should meet with the surgeon one more time, perhaps a week later so that you can ask addtional questions that were not addressed at the first visit. You may also want to meet with more than one plastic surgeon to determine which surgeon is right for you.
You could have surgery within days or within weeks/months of your consultation depending upon the schedule of your surgeon and yourself.
There is no specific time frame between consultation and surgery, but you do need to be in good health (no smoking and off all aspirin/motrin products). Please take your time and don't rush into an elective procedure.
Best wishes,
Dr.Bruno

Answer: Mommy Makeover Thanks for your question! Depends on when your surgeon has an opening in his/her surgery schedule. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options. Best wishes!

Answer: A Proper Medical Evaluation Needs to Be Done Before Undergoing the Mommy Makeover Procedure
Safety should be everyone’s first priority. Therefore, it’s absolutely essential that you undergo a proper medical evaluation before proceeding with this procedure. Particular attention should be given to drugs that might effect how blood clots. Drugs like Ibuprofen and Aspirin, for instance, can lead to post-operative bleeding.
Once this work-up is complete, the only limiting factors are your schedule and your surgeon’s schedule. When you are both ready, it’s acceptable to proceed.

Answer: Mommy Makeover is a process, not just a procedure
Getting mommy her body back is more than just a popular procedure. All patients need to be assessed for medical stability and general health as safety is a priority consideration. We need to then look at all that needs to be done, considering effective staging if we cannot complete your list in one setting. Scheduling usually needs a few weeks at least to get the patient prepared properly with opportunities to learn about the process and to answer all questions. This is a serious investment and a serious undertaking that requires careful attention to detail for best results and happy patients.

Answer: Mommy makeover: From consultation to surgery
In our office we often can book the surgery in conjunction with the consultation so that you can have your surgery the next day (assuming that you are in good condition and have no medical problems that need to be further investigated). We see a lot of patients from out of state who come to us for surgery. With that in mind, we can often compress the time frame from consultation to surgery.

Answer: Scheduling surgery soon after a consultation Depending on the availability of the surgery schedule, I would try my best to accommodate the date that you wish for. However, in order to be prepared for surgery, it is in your best interest to be in good health. I ask my patients to reach their ideal weight prior to proceeding with surgery to avoid additional surgery. During your consultation, your surgeon will discuss the best and safest possible option for you. A mommy makeover may involve multiple procedures including a tummy tuck, breast augmentation, and/or breast lift. Communicate your goals with your surgeon to determine which procedures you would benefit from. On this site, I do my best to give advice without a physical examination but I want you to know that a physical examination by a board certified physician is always the best way to get the most accurate information.
