How Severe is the Pain After a Mommy Makeover?

Each patient responds to pain after a mommy makeover differently,
depending on the invasiveness of surgery and on her pain tolerance.
Since you have described yourself as having a relatively high threshold
for experiencing pain, I would say that the idea
of discomfort should not be a major deterring factor from moving
forward with a potentially life-changing procedure. Just think of the
pain as one small bump on the road to a newer, more confident you. Also,
it is important to note that there are various medications
your doctor can prescribe which are very
strong prescribed medications. Many doctors use pain pumps or Experal
for long action pain control of 4 days.

Thank you for your question.  Pain and/or discomfort are subjective sensations and highly variable from patient to patient.  Mommy makeover procedures commonly include breast lifts, breast augmentations, abdominoplasty and liposuction.  Patients will often cite that a typical 'mommy makeover' recovery is comparable or easier than a c-section recovery and each surgeon will provide you with a recommendation and/or medications to alleviate any post-op pain.   Patient's, expecially those with high pain tolerances, typically do quite well and end up saying that they thought that their recovery was going to be much worse than it was, but if you are concerned with post-operative pain I would recommend discussing your concerns with your operating surgeon.
