What kind of results should I expect after mommy makeover?

 

 

The final results of mommy makeover surgery may not be obvious for several months after the surgery.

Over time, breast implants will settle in and get better, although the scars never completely disappear.

Get medical help right away if you feel short of breath, chest pain, or unusual heartbeats when you get home. If any of these complications occur, hospitalization and additional treatment may be required.

The practice of medicine and surgery is not an exact science. Although good results are expected, there is no guarantee. In some cases, it may not be possible to achieve optimal results with a single surgical procedure and another operation may be required.

Following your doctor's instructions is key to the success of your surgery. It is important that surgical incisions are not subjected to excessive force, abrasion or movement during the healing period. Your doctor will give you specific instructions on how to care for yourself.
