How long do I have to wait after a c-section to get a mommy makeover? It’s been 4 months (I also had my tubes tied)
Answer: Is 4 months too soon for a mommy makeover after a c-section? Six months would be a reasonable time to wait after C-section and cessation of breastfeeding before pursuing a mommy makeover. Best to ask your OB/GYN's advice as he/she will know how you are healing and your return to a stable weight. Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Is 4 months too soon for a mommy makeover after a c-section? Hello and congratulations on your baby! Four months is indeed a bit soon to consider a mommy makeover for a couple of different reasons. First, your C-section was a surgery that takes some time to recover from and you want to give your body ample time to heal before undergoing another operation. Second, your body continues to return to its pre-pregnancy state for many months after the arrival of your little one and if you have body contouring procedures too soon, the continued changes could interfere with your results. I would recommend waiting at least nine months, plus six months or more after stopping breastfeeding and then checking in with your OBGYN as well as a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine whether the time is right for a mommy makeover. Good luck to you!

Answer: 6 month wait It is generally recommended that women wait at least 6 months after they’ve given birth or stopped breastfeeding (whichever is later) before considering any cosmetic surgery. This would allow your body to return as close as possible to its pre-pregnant state. Getting surgery too soon can leave you with results that don’t last, since your body continues to “return to normal”.

Answer: Is 4 months too soon for a mommy makeover after a c-section? Thank you for your question. In general it is recommended to wait between 6 and 12 months depending on how fast you recover. Combination procedures can give powerful results but SAFETY is KEY. 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.
