Answer: Should I lose weight before having a mommy makeover? I am 5’4, 160 lbs Hello and thank you for your question. At your current weight, you are within the healthy parameters needed to safely undergo a mommy makeover procedure. However, if you believe you can successfully lose weight and maintain the weight loss before your surgery, then you should absolutely do so. Losing weight naturally will ensure that all of your excess loose skin can be removed during the procedure. It will also allow for more natural results following your procedure. Be sure that you are prepared to maintain a stable body weight once you feel ready to undergo your mommy makeover. Schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon to learn more about the procedure. Best of luck to you!

Answer: Should I lose weight before having a mommy makeover? Thanks for your question. Based on your information and photos you appear to be a good candidate for a tummy tuck procedure. I can't advice you on the breast augmentation as the photos don't show your breasts to evaluate them. Tummy tuck is a very powerful technique in the right hands, and can have dramatic results if done correctly. You definitely have to choose your surgeon correctly and make sure that he/she has the training and experience to meet your goals with absolute safety. Don’t settle for less than a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with specialized expertise in this procedure.

Answer: Candidate for Mommy Makeover Thank you for your question. Based on the photos alone you appear to be a candidate for a tummy tuck. Without photos, I am unable to determine if you are a candidate for a breast augmentation or if a breast lift would help give you the aesthetic appearance you are looking for. A tummy tuck will remove the excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen and tightens the muscle and fascia of the abdominal wall creating an abdominal profile that is smoother and firmer. I generally recommend my patients to be within 10 pounds of their goal weight as further weight loss could alter the results. I would consult with a plastic surgeon so they may best explain the procedures that will help you achieve the results you desire. Good luck! Kamran Azad MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
