Mommy Makeover Recovery Week

On February 14, 2023 I had a mommy makeover that included: a tummy tuck, leg liposuction and a Breast Lift with a 100cc silicone implant.

What is Recovery Like?

Two words. Painful. Nauseous. As part of my Mommy Makeover surgery I got a breast lift, liposuction, and a tummy tuck. If you want to see into the operating room check out the video here. 

Back to the recovery, I remember getting out of surgery my stomach was the worst. On top of the soreness and pain, the nausea was nearly unbearable. Driving home I sniffed alcohol swaps in an attempt to hold it down. Even though I was taking Zofran, the recovery from the anestesia was a challenge.

Since I couldn’t keep anything down Jason attempted to get more anti-nausea medication for me. My biggest tip for getting your nutrients in would be beef bone broth!

Compression

In order to prevent blood clots and keep everything in place you need compression. Linked below are some of the products I used. 

Days 3-5

Drain Removal

As I had my drain removed I discuessed my nerve pain with the doctor. The incision was cut along the femoral nerve, making me worry something went wrong. However, swelling and pain on one or both sides is common with this Mommy Makeover Surgery. 

As I continued with recovery, my biggest tip is to walk. Recommended by the doctors, getting your steps in is necessary to make a healthy recovery. Though it was pretty difficult walking definitely helped speed along my recovery.
