I am 6'2 and 190lbs. I've lost 70lbs since having my baby in October. Would I need a full tummy tuck? Can I do a bbl at the same time? I'm still breast feeding would I have to wait? How much would it cost thank you!
Answer: Mommy makeover Thanks for your question! First of all, I would advise that you finish breastfeeding first. You do need a full tummy tuck, but you will want to get that hernia looked first OR find a surgeon that will repair it during a tummy tuck. Lastly, a TT and BBL in one surgery is a lot of surgery. Personally, I would break it up, but the choice is always yours. Good luck!

Answer: Mommy Makeover You look like a great Candidate for a mommy makeover. Finish breastfeeding before you book procedure. You can still do procedure while breastfeeding but would need to pump and dump your milk while on the pain relievers and it’s best to just not waste that liquid gold you are providing for your little one. They are only tiny for a tiny while, enjoy it. It’s hard to tell from the photos, but you could possibly get away with a mini Abdominoplasty instead of a full. You can do breast, abdomen, and bbl at same time. Overnight care is recommended at our facility. As for cost, that varies depending on what procedures you decide to do. If you would like to schedule a consultation here at Smith Plastic Surgery feel free to contact my office. 702-838-7055

Answer: Regarding Mommy Makeovers, Breastfeeding, and Surgical Timing Thank you for reaching out about the possibility of combining a mommy makeover with breastfeeding. After reviewing your history and images, I recommend a full tummy tuck due to muscle weakness and an umbilical hernia. Excess skin removal is also advisable. Regarding a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), limited fat availability might affect the outcome's quality. For optimal results, it's best to consider this cautiously. For a safe procedure, I suggest completing breastfeeding before the tummy tuck. Alternatively, freezing a two-week breast milk supply is an option, but continued pain medication while breastfeeding is not advised. Costs can vary, influenced by your surgeon's expertise, location, and the extent of surgery. Individual components, like hernia repair, may impact the overall expense. Please consult an experienced plastic surgeon to discuss these options further. Best regards, Dr. Katzen

Answer: Mommy makeover cost and breast feeding Dear Straightforward176901, you should wait until you are done with breastfeeding. Based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a TT. Full tummy tuck should tighten your abdominal muscles and remove the excess skin. Flanks liposuction would give you a better shape. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Do it right First you need to complete breast feeding for 3 months and you should not plan for further pregnancies. You can do a BBL at the same time as an abdominoplasty, but I usually do not recommend it because you will not be able to lay on your stomach and your only option is to lay on your side. It also increase your rate of complications. The abdominoplasty cost average is $12,000. If you add a BBL you are $20,000

Answer: Mommy Makeover include Tummy Tuck and a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) "Congratulations on your weight loss! Given your details, it's possible a full tummy tuck and a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) to be performed in the same session, offering a comprehensive ""mommy makeover."" However, it's crucial to wait until you've been done with breastfeeding for about three to six months before getting surgery to ensure stability in your body's hormonal and tissue states. Recovery and healing could be compromised if done before. As for costs, they will vary, so it's best to schedule consultations for a more accurate quote. Always ensure your surgeon is a board-certified plastic surgeon for your safety. "
