If the mommy makeover involves a tummy tuck, this is usually the greatest factor which determines your healing schedule. Many patients can drive after about seven days and return to work at about two weeks. You should expect to be sore, but functional, at these times.
Time off work after a Mommy Makeover depends on the type of work you do. In general women who return to a non physical job can do so after 2 weeks. If your job is physically demanding it will be longer. It is great if you are able to return to work slowly, perhaps working a part time schedule for your first week back, as you will wear out more easily. Speak to your surgeon about what is best for you.
