Mommy makeover for fit person? 36 YO 5’9” steady weight of 135. Mom-of-4 with twins + 2. I run 4 times a week am athletic. Looking for breasts that look NATURAL and compliment frame + activity. Curious if tummy tuck is okay for an athletic person? I don't have much saggy or excess skin. Wanting to + breasts & flatten the lower tummy bulge & refine thigh/butt. Should only lipo on tummy, waist AND THIGHS (see pic) to re-shape - or will the tummy tuck + breasts be best for outcome?
Answer: Mommy makeover candidate Thank you for your question. Based on your information and photos you appear to be a good candidate for a breast augmentation with possible lifting, tummy tuck and liposuction. You ould also have a brazilian butt lift for better contouring of your body. Combination procedures can give powerful results but safety is key. You definitely have to choose your surgeon correctly and make sure that he/she has the training and experience to meet your goals with absolute safety. Don’t settle for less than a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with specialized expertise in this procedure.

Answer: Is tummy tuck and lipo ok for an athletic person? What would be an ideal natural breast implant size for my MM? (photos) A short-scar tummy tuck was developed to enhance a patient’s abdomen and get rid of excess fat and skin in a way that created more attractive results. The shorter scar it leaves is the same length as that of the mini tummy tuck. While the mini tummy tuck is less invasive, it also isn’t as comprehensive as the full tummy tuck. A short-scar tummy tuck, however, offers double the amount of loose skin and fat removal that a mini offers.As a bodybuilder, I augment professional athletes frequently. I think for those people in whom the living is made by athletic performance, the implant can be placed above the muscle. Other patients will be happier longterm with submuscular placement. Schedule an in-office consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of BAMs and TTs annually for an evaluation of your goals and selection of the best size/type implant for you.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Mommy Makeover Thanks for submitting your question and photos. A comprehensive makeover is quite an undertaking so make sure you plan your recovery as carefully as you plan your surgery, especially with four kids running around. Conservative liposuction can certainly address the stubborn areas on the hips and thighs that don't go away no matter how much you exercise. Your abdomen looks more like muscle stretching than loose skin so just repairing the separation of the muscles is the best approach since there really isn't a lot of skin to remove. Your surgeon can guide you as to breast implant selection. There are a number of measurements in addition to your personal desires that are variables in the decision on implant size. I think you can achieve a fabulous result, remain athletic and enjoy a very natural appearance. Make sure you choose a board-certified plastic surgeon and best wishes on a speedy recovery and great result.

Answer: Your choice of procedures depends on what you see as problematic. I will go through the various areas of concern.Your breasts: it depends on what volume you would like to have added to your breasts. If you add enough volume then you will not need any lifting of the breast. This is something that we determine in the office with sizing implants. If you don't want to increase the volume at all then a breast lift would be an option.Your abdomen: based on your history you probably will benefit most from a tummy tuck. This will tighten the muscles and skin, and improve your waistline as well as correcting the bulging of the lower abdomen.Flanks and buttocks: liposuction of your flanks will be helpful to improve your overall contour and you may want to transfer some or all of that fat to the buttocks to improve your contour in this area.These options are personal preferences and it is something that you need to go through with your plastic surgeon to see what makes sense for you within your budget.
