Mommy Makeover Thousand Oaks, CA | Zol Kryger, M.D.

Understanding the Mommy Makeover Procedure

A Mommy Makeover is a personalized surgical approach addressing the physical changes women experience after pregnancy and childbirth. The procedure typically focuses on two primary areas most affected: the abdomen and breasts.

Key Procedure Components

• Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
• Breast Enhancement (Augmentation, Lift, or Combined)
• Simultaneous surgical correction

Ideal Candidates for Mommy Makeover

Optimal candidates for a Mommy Makeover are women who have completed childbearing, returned to their pre-pregnancy weight, and seek comprehensive body restoration. Patients should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes.

Surgical Considerations

• Completed family planning
• Stable body weight
• Good general health
• Commitment to recovery process

Anesthesia and Surgical Approach

The Kryger Institute offers two anesthesia options: twilight sedation with local anesthesia or general anesthesia. Board-certified plastic surgeons perform the procedure simultaneously, minimizing surgical time and associated risks.

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery from a Mommy Makeover involves managing pain, swelling, and gradually resuming normal activities. Most patients experience significant improvement within the first two weeks and can return to light activities under medical guidance.

Recovery Timeline

• First 48 hours: Rest and limited movement
• 1-2 weeks: Light walking and household activities
• 6 weeks: Full return to strenuous activities

Financial Considerations

Mommy Makeover procedures are typically considered cosmetic and are not covered by insurance. Combining multiple procedures offers cost-effective benefits compared to separate surgeries.
