I Have a Scheduled Egg Donation End of April. Will I Be Able to Have the "Mommy Makeover" a Month Later in June?

Question

Are there risks or complications associated with that?

Larry S. Nichter, MD, MS, FACS · Answer

An egg donation is a minimally invasive surgery and so  a month's recovery time should be fine to wait prior to your Mommy Makeover.

J. Jason Wendel, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question.

	Yes, with the procedures separated by a month, it should be medically safe. 

	Best of luck.

Hi there-

	I agree that a minimally invasive procedure like Egg Donation should not affect the safety or success of your planned Mommy Makeover procedure.

	Congratulations!

C. Bob Basu, MD, MPH, FACS · Answer

Donation procedures are fairly minimally invasive.  You should be fully recovered from your donation procedure in a matter of weeks.   So yes, you should be perfectly fine to proceed with your mommy makeover.  Best of luck!

The procedure for harvesting eggs from your ovaries is usually very reliable with minimal recovery. It should not interfere with your plans to have plastic surgery a month later as long as all goes well. I am assuming your egg donation is for another person if you are planning a tummy tuck.
