Great Mommy Makeover Results - Sacramento, CA

WORTH IT$10,700

I always had a nice figure (before 2 c-sections that is) but felt my boobies were a bit small. After deciding to finally 'upgrade' (with the overwhelming approval and support of my new husband) I thought I might as well take care of the streatched muscles and loose skin in my tummy at the same time.

Pros - Fabulous results (even at the short 3 week mark). Excellent value by having the procdures done together.

Cons - Pain is a factor. Although everything went great the TT was very hard to deal with for the first two weeks. The breasts were sore but not too bad. Advice - Don't even dream of doing anything other than eat, sleep and lay around for the first 2-3 weeks. Have friends/family help you in/out of bed, shower etc for at least 7-10 days. Read blogs for tips and support. Do you homework before selecting a PS.

I see that you got a benelli lift. How do you like the results?

Actually I was scheduled to get the Benelli lift (which is why the aerola incision)but my decided not to do it while I was on the table. He stated two things factored into not doing a lift. The first was the size of the implant(450/400) left little room due to the tightness of the skin. Secondarily he felt I was borderline for a lift to start with. I would like my nipples to be pointed up a bit more but more my PS and all the nurses have advised once the implants settled fully the nipples will actually be tweaked upwards a 1/2 to 1 inch which will leave me very satisfied. My PS said to wait 6 months or so to gauge my satisfaction before even consider doing a lift. He strongly feels any benefit would be outweighed by the additional scarring (not to mention pain and expense). I really like to results right now and am really looking forward to the swelling in my abdomen to go down so I can have the full effect seen in the mirror. :)

My biggest complaints to date are the slow reduced swelling in my tummy, the discomfort of the incision (especially on my hips-still cant sleep on my side) and the dramatically increased nipple sensitivity. All are getting a little better every day but I am tired of waiting. I want ot be able to do everything and flaunt my new body NOW!!! :p

Dr. Hause does great work. I am very pleased with my choice of surgeons and with the results. Now that I am 8+months post procedure I have a very good idea of what 'final' results look like. Once the coloration of the scars fade they will be hardly noticeable. Biggest surprise was the pain level and time of recovery but having said that I would definitely do it again AND I would choice Dr. Hause again as well. (Great staff too!)

Hello santana83! I am having a TT done by dr. Hause in April and I am also very nervous and scared. How did your TT turn out. Do you have any photos you would like to share?

Hello, following up to see who your TT went? My consult is this month! I'm scared out of my mind.

Hello Peabo! I have a TT scheduled with Dr. Hause for April 3rd. During my consult he said he does not use compression garments because they increase the risk of blood clots and necrosis due to the restricion of blood flow from the tightness and he feels there has been no scientific evidence that these help with healing or better results. Were you put in a compression garment after surgery or at least a binder?

HI there! This is my question, also. What did you do?

I waited until I got my drains removed and I purchased my own compression garment anyway. It really helped control the swelling and it helps train your muscles.

Did you put compression garnet on there or when you got home?
