Mommy makeover - can I get my shape back?

Hello Generous119228,

I'm Dr. Katzen. First off, I understand the desire to regain one's body confidence after childbirth, and I commend you for wanting to take this step towards self-improvement. It's essential to remember that while BMI can be an indicator of health, it isn't the only factor I consider when evaluating a patient for a mommy makeover.

Instead of focusing solely on BMI, I prioritize the overall health of my patients. Before any surgical procedure, it's crucial to ensure that the patient is in optimal health to reduce potential complications and promote a smoother recovery. To determine this, I conduct a series of health tests and evaluations.

If you're considering a breast reduction and tummy tuck, I would recommend a consultation to review your medical history, discuss your goals, and determine the best approach for your unique situation. The main objective is to achieve the results you desire while ensuring your safety throughout the process.

Your well-being is my utmost priority, and I'm here to guide and support you every step of the way. Let's work together to help you regain your shape and confidence.

So, to start out, your BMI is a little high @ 37, you ideally would want it to be no higher than 30 to decrease your healing, anesthesia risk, etc. There are a lot of options to get you to an ideal weight so you can proceed to your dream body. Feel free out to reach out to my office and we can go over details. Smith Plastic Surgery 702-8383-2455
