How soon can someone have a mommy makeover after miscarriage?

Question

Hello, I just had a possible miscarriage (although undiagnosed) and it got me wondering about the safety of the mommy makeover procedure, I will be undergoing in two months time. The pregnancy would have been about 4 weeks along and was unplanned. Is it unsafe to undergo this procedure within that time frame? If so, what would a reasonable time frame be to reschedule? Thank you.

Best to be tested to make sure you really aren't pregnant and then reschedule in 6-8 weeks if all is negative. Good luck!

I am so sorry to hear about your miscarriage. First, see your Ob/Gyn to insure that you are definitely no longer pregnant. Then, I would suggest waiting at least 6-8 weeks before scheduling your surgery. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Thank you for your question and I am sorry to hear about your miscarriage.  If you are interested in continuing with your mommy makeover, the first step would be to prove that you are not pregnant. You can see your ob/gyn for this to obtain appropriate hormone testing (HCG-quants). Once negative, surgery would best be performed 6-8 weeks later in order for your body to fully return to its baseline.

As soon as you are physiologically stable there's no problem with proceeding with the mommy makeover. Certainly six weeks would be an adequate interval.

From your description, you must have had a miscarriage early in the pregnancy.As long as you are healthy and you are at your goal weight, you should be able to undergo  mommy makeover safely in two months.With any elective surgery, your plastic surgeon will ask you to have urine pregnancy test and basic blood work prior to your surgery.Best regards.
