I am in the process of researching & learning everything to have plastic surgery. I want to have a tummy tuck, lipo & bbl with fat transfer. I'm going to DR to have my procedure done but I'm also trying to have a baby before. If so I would need a c-section. How long do I have to wait after giving birth to have plastic surgery?
Answer: Post-pregnancy plastic surgery There are different factors that determine the appropriate time for having a tummy tuck and other procedures after giving birth. In order to do such a procedure, I would advise you to wait until your weight is stabilized, until you have stopped breast feeding and this time must not be less than 8 months. Then you can communicate a board certified plastic surgeon and have the successful result that you desire.

Answer: How long to wait after giving birth to have plastic surgery? Most patients will undergo a tummy tuck procedure after they have completed their family and not planning on having any more children. It is advised to wait at least 6-12 months after you finished breast feeding before considering any plastic surgery.

Answer: Waiting after giving birth In general, it is best to wait at least 10-12 months before having an abdominoplasty after giving birth. This is for two reasons: first, the pregnant uterus doesn't return to normal size for some time, and second, the mother should not be 'removed' from her child for a recovery period in any way during the first six months, if possible.The most important thing is to seek a surgeon with at least 15 years of experience with patients in your situation. There are many such plastic surgeons available. Hope this helps.Leland Deane MD FACSNew York, Garden City , Babylon

Answer: Tummy tuck Hello and thank you for your question. I recommend waiting at least 6 months from the time of your delivery. If you are an appropriate candidate, a tummy tuck can be done through a low and short incision, all completely below the bikini line. Your muscles can also be plicated resulting in a flat abdomen. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon
