Mommy makeover: 1 week post-op — I am still in complete shock of the changes

1-week post-op. (Abdominoplasty, Breast lift with silicone implants, Lipectomy of hips, and posterior flanks). Extremely impressed with my procedure! I am still very swollen and understand with time and patience my results will keep enhancing. Dr. Pedersen and the staff made this experience worthwhile! Everything was explained and presented professionally.  After 2 large pregnancies and two c-sections, I desperately needed attention on my abdominal wall and tummy (and the breast lift and implants were a nice bonus)! I definitely can say 1-week post-op. I look even better than before kids! For me, the recovery is more intense than my c-sections. Luckily my kids are 4 & 6 and can do a lot on their own.  The first four days I had a grandma help with kids, cooking, and cleaning. With freezer meal prep and doing this at a time, the kids are off school made this easier. I still feel most comfortable sleeping in a recliner with pillows. Water and Tylenol extra strength are my best friends! Having a great surgeon and a supportive family at home it's been a nice recovery. Any questions I had after surgery Dr. Pedersen was easy to contact and assured me what I was feeling with was normal. I am still in complete shock at the changes and trying to adjust to my beautiful new shape! If you are thinking about a procedure like this I suggest getting a consultation with Dr. Pedersen!
