What Is Involved in a Mommy Makeover?
Each surgeon has their own techniques and preferences, but the most common steps used during a mommy makeover include:
Step 1
You will be asleep and completely relaxed during your surgery using general anesthesia.

Dr. Rojas will perform the breast augmentation surgery that you desire, which may include adding volume with implants and repositioning the breasts higher up on the chest with a breast lift to restore their former “pre-pregnancy” position and appearance.
Step 3
Your tummy tuck will be completed next and may include liposuction to remove excess pockets of fat. The abdominal muscles are repaired, loose skin is trimmed and tightened, and stitched back into place, leaving your stomach flatter and smoother-looking.

You will spend a few hours in a recovery area under observation while you come off the anesthesia to ensure you are doing well before you are either transported to a room for an overnight stay or discharged to go home, depending on the circumstances.

You are sent home to recover and follow all the directions provided to you by Dr. Rojas and his team so your recovery goes smoothly and you get the beautiful results you wanted.
