I had a baby 13 weeks ago. I'm 5'7 and 120lbs. Prior to pregnancy I had abs, perkier breasts, and no saddlebags. Now 3-months postpartum I have no volume in my breasts, saddlebags, and a wrinkly ballooned midsection that's discolored. I also have a series of fibroids that need removal. Am I a candidate for a mommy makeover (with mini tuck). Are there less invasive procedures/things to consider that may reverse these issues? Can you combine laparoscopic myomectomy with a mommy makeover?
Answer: Full mommy makeover candidate? Can fibroid removal be done simultaneously? The answer is most likely yes! However, because you'll most likely need a full tummy tuck you won't need the laparoscopic myomectomy as the gyn will have full access to the abdomen during the tummy tuck portion. A mommy makeover appears to be exactly what you need to rejuvenate your breasts and contour your mid-section. Many plastic surgeons work with ob/gyns at the hospital to combine surgeries in a safe, comfortable setting. Even more, combining procedures will save you recovery time and money as insurance will most likely cover a good portion of the facility and anesthesia costs.

Answer: Laparoscopic Myomectomy with Mommy Makeover Thank you for your question. Based on your pictures you are a good candidate for Mommy makeover but a full tummy tuck will be required. Fibroids can be removed simultaneously as long as your Plastic surgeon and Gynaecologist are comfortable with the combined procedures.

Answer: Full mommy makeover candidate? From your photos you appear to be a good candidate for the Mommy Makeover. You will want to wait until the later of 6 months post partum or cessation of breastfeeding before having surgery. It is recommended to wait to have a tummy tuck until you have finished having children. If you have, I recommend a full tummy tuck versus a mini for you. The breasts can be lifted and you can elect to have implants if you want more volume. Liposuction can be added to the procedure to address the hips and flanks. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.
