Should I get a body lift before or after trying to have more children? (Photo)

Congratulations on your weight loss! Ideally, yes you should wait until you have finished having children. If you have surgery before pregnancy, your skin will most likely stretch and become loose again and your muscle repair will separate.

Congratulations on your impressive weight loss! Your question about the optimal timing for a body lift relative to future childbirth is an important one.
If you're planning to have children in the next 12 months, I'd advise against having a body lift at this time. Pregnancy and childbirth could affect the outcomes of the surgery and may necessitate further surgical corrections.
However, if you're planning to have children in more than a year, or at some unspecified future point, I would recommend considering the 360-degree circumferential lower body lift. This procedure would address several areas including your abdomen, pubic region, hips, and buttocks.
Please note that a body lift will not specifically address arm areas, as you referenced in your photo. Other procedures could be considered for that area, depending on your goals.
Ultimately, the decision will depend on your personal timeline and plans for future children. It's about balancing your desire for body contouring with your family planning.
I hope this advice is helpful as you consider the next steps in your body transformation journey.
Sincerely,
Dr. Katzen

Congratulations on your weight loss journey! It is advisable that you complete your family before considering surgery as future pregnancies can impact your results. Typically you will want to be at least six months post partum, at your weight loss goal, and stable at that weight before considering surgery.
