Possible risks of mommy makeover surgery include bleeding, infection, healing problems, problems with breastfeeding and loss of nipple sensation.
It is imperative to quit smoking before surgery. In addition, blood thinners such as aspirin and herbal supplements should be avoided for a while.
Patients should wait at least 6 months after childbirth and 3 months after breastfeeding before considering a Mommy Makeover. This allows the body to fully heal and hormones to return to pre-pregnancy levels.
