As with any surgical procedure, mommy makeover does require some rest for your body to heal. Healing time will depend upon the combination of particular procedures involved in an individual’s mommy makeover, any of Dr. Orringer’s patients are able to return to work after one to two weeks, but in addition to the procedure done, this will depend upon the nature of a patient’s job. Breast augmentation, breast lift, tummy tuck and liposuction are among the procedures most often included as part of a mommy makeover while the results are usually very pleasing for patients, tummy tuck tends to require the most recovery time. Be mindful that there are some recommended restrictions with regard to lifting weights and/or vigorous exercise early after your mommy makeover procedure. Dr. Orringer will discuss with you certain exercises and/or activities he believes may help optimize your recovery.
