Let the mommy makeover help you get the body you want and deserve.

How Long Does it Take to Recover from a Mommy Makeover?

Because a mommy makeover involves a combination of procedures being done at one time, it can take up to two to three months to fully recover from your surgeries. While only the first two weeks or so requires you to be on bed rest, you will not be able to lift more than 25 pounds for the first several weeks following your surgery. During your recovery, we recommend that you recruit a buddy to help you with your everyday activities. This buddy should be a close friend, family member or significant other, as they will most likely have to help you with the bathroom and preparing food.

How Much Does a Mommy Makeover Cost?

The cost of your mommy makeover is going to vary widely depending on the type and number of procedures you choose to get to achieve your desired results. The best way to find out the cost of your procedure is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Beam. He’ll sit down with you, listen to your concerns and develop a fully customized treatment plan to help you get the body you’ve been dreaming of. Dr. Beam also has financing options and monthly specials to make your treatments as affordable as possible.

What to Consider Before Your Mommy Makeover

While the mommy makeover may seem like the ultimate solution to your body’s needs, there are still a few things you need to keep in mind before having your surgery.

  1. You still need to be at a healthy weight. The mommy makeover can help you look more slim and trim, but it can’t do all the weight loss for you. We recommend being within 25 pounds of your weight goal going in.
  2. You’ll need to budget accordingly. While specials and financing options are available, the mommy makeover is still multiple procedures being done at once. Make sure to talk to Dr. Beam about your budget before committing.
  3. You should ideally be done having children. Yes, it is safe to get pregnant after your mommy makeover, but another pregnancy can reverse the results of your procedure. We recommend you get a mommy makeover when you stop having kids to maintain your results.
