What do you recommend to improve my tummy and give me larger breasts?

A Mommy Makeover would benefit you

I would recommend a tummy tuck to help with sagging skin. If you have abdominal muscle separation, a tummy tuck can also repair that. For the breasts, implants would help with increasing their size. You may also want to consider a breast lift if you can hold a pencil under your breasts.

Drains typically come out 10-14 days post-op. Depending on your occupation, light-duty work is acceptable usually a week or so after surgery. Just be sure there is no lifting, tugging or pulling anything over 10 pounds. Most patients stop taking pain meds 5-7 days after surgery. All restrictions are released at 6 weeks post-op.

Severe diastasis recti tummy. Will this be fixed if I get a tummy tuck?

Jul 13, 2023

The diastasis recti is fixed during the tummy tuck or abdominoplasty. This is fixed by tightening (aka plicating) the rectus muscles back together. This is the “internal” part of a tummy tuck that allows for a flatter midsection. After the muscle is tightened the skin is tightened as well.
