The exact specifications of your procedure are the main topic of your consultation. Since no two patients are alike, Dr. S. Darrell Lee ensures that your mommy makeover addresses your unique concerns. At this stage, you can also discuss your current diet and exercise plan to see how your procedure can accelerate your progress toward your ideal body.

When you enter our properative room, our team answers any final questions you may have about the procedure while getting you comfy. Then, in the operative room, we put you under general anesthesia so you do not feel a thing over the duration of your makeover.

Dr. S. Darrell Lee makes precise incisions along the treatment areas you have specified, giving him access to the tissues underneath your skin. Once he has reinforced your muscles, he also reduces the amount of skin and fat in the area. After sutures, your midsection and lower back will be slimmer and tight.

Abstain from alcohol and tobacco products starting 2 weeks before your appointment. These substances can interrupt the healing process by altering your blood flow. You also need to stop taking blood-thinning medications within 1 week of your procedure, such as:

• Aspirin
• Ibuprofen
• Vitamin E
• Herbal or diet supplements

Arrange for someone to drive you home after your treatment. Since we put you under general anesthesia, you will not be safe to drive once awake. Wear loose-fitting clothing to your appointment without any metal pieces. This includes jewelry. Metal attracts the electrical pulses of the radiofrequency energy, which can cause damage during treatment.

Once your procedure is complete, follow all instructions given to you by our team. Expect to spend the next few days recovering, as this process can be uncomfortable for many patients. Wait to work out for at least 6 weeks, and avoid all other strenuous activity in the meantime.

Though you may see changes in your body right away, initial results take about 2 weeks to become visible. Once the bruising and swelling goes down, you likely need about 2 months before regaining your full energy. Full recovery typically takes about 3 months.

Afterward, you can enjoy that slim, revitalized figure you had before your pregnancy. Keep in mind that regular diet and exercise will be necessary to maintain results.
