I am looking for a doctor to will perform on a plus size patient I am 255 lbs 5'5 and 41 never smoke drink or drugs need to get my tummy removed and lift my breast ASAP looking in miami area
Answer: Mommy Makeover Thank you for your question. Body-mass index is a way to standardize somebody’s weight for their height. Based on a height of 5’5 and a weight of 255 lb. you have a body-mass index of 42. This is considered morbidly obese and the risk of having a major complication as a result of your tummy tuck or breast lift would be unacceptably high. I would strongly recommend against shopping around for a doctor to find surgery on you until you’ve had the ability to lose the weight. This is a once in a lifetime procedure and you want to do things the right way to maximize your results and minimize your level of complications.

Answer: Best weight for Mommy Makeover As the other Plastic Surgeons have said, it is best to be close to your ideal weight.But if this is unlikely to happen and doing the surgery will give you an incentive to lose weight and get back on your feet, I would do the surgery. You would have to understand and accept the increased risk.We might limit the initial procedure to just a tummy tuck and some liposuction.Good luck.

Answer: Mommy Makeover /Breast Augmentation/Breast Implants/Anatomic Gummy Bear Implants/Tummy Tuck/Liposuction/BBL I appreciate your question. For health and safety reasons, best to be at a BMI less than 30 or within 10 pounds of your goal weight and stable at that weight for 6 months prior to surgery for optimal results. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck!

Answer: Mommy Makeover for Plus Size Patients It's difficult to determine without a one-on-one consultation. The Mommy Makeover is a combination of procedures to bring a woman’s body back to the way she looked prior to pregnancy. Most commonly some variation of a #TummyTuck and #BreastSurgery are performed. Additional procedures can include liposuction, umbilical hernia repair. The most common #breastprocedures include #mastopexy or #breastlift, #breastaugmentation, or #breastreduction. It is best to undergo #MommyMakeover procedures when your weight has been stable for at least one year. In addition to a one-on-one consultations with a board certified Plastic Surgeon, patients always need to be seen by their primary care doctor prior to such procedures. We screen every patient and their medical records for risks of blood clots (DVT) and then take appropriate measures. MWL (massive weight loss patients of 75 lbs or more) tend to have poor skin elasticity and will frequently need additional tightening even afte 6 -12 months regardless of who or how their surgery is performed. This is simply the nature of such body tissues and the ability to heal with the lack or limited elasticity.
