How Long After a Mommy Makeover Before I Can Have Sex?

Since mommy makeovers vary to the amount of surgery, you should ask your surgeon or the nurse or PA in the office. Generally for my patients who have undergone breast and tummy surgery, I suggest refraining from sexual relations for at least one month and taking positioning precautions as required.

Thank you for your question. Any sexual activity should be avoided for a minimum of two weeks. You can resume most of your normal activities, including some form of mild exercise, after a few weeks. You may continue to experience some mild, periodic discomfort and swelling during this time, but such feelings are normal. Best of luck!Dhaval M.

Usually a month is sufficient to resume gentle intercourse with your husband.  Please check with your surgeon as well as he or she will know the situation the best.
