Mommy Makeover
in Beverly Hills
A personal plan for changes after pregnancy.
A Mommy Makeover is a customized combination of breast and body procedures. Dr. Henry builds each plan around the changes you want to address, your anatomy, health, and recovery needs. There is no standard package that fits everyone.
RESTORE YOURSELF
What a Mommy Makover may include
Pregnancy and breastfeeding can change the breasts, abdomen, and waist. The options on Dr. Henry’s current site include a mini, standard, extended, or reverse tummy tuck; a body lift; breast implants, lift, reduction, or fat transfer; liposuction 360; and, for selected patients, a BBL. A plan may combine some procedures or stage them over time. The options, order, and timing depend on your goals, anatomy, health, and recovery needs.
​
Dr. Henry’s plan is shaped around your anatomy, concerns, health history, and the result you want to see. The consultation also covers what the procedure can and cannot address.
IS IT RIGHT FOR YOU?
Who may be a good candidate?

Your priorities are clear
Timing fits your plans
Identify which changes to the breasts, abdomen, or waist matter most to you.
Breastfeeding status and plans for future pregnancy can affect timing.
Candidacy can only be determined after a medical history, examination, and discussion of your goals. Smoking or nicotine use, unstable health conditions, and unrealistic expectations may affect whether or when surgery is appropriate.
Candidacy depends on your health, weight stability, breastfeeding status, future pregnancy plans, and the procedures under consideration. Future pregnancy or significant weight change can affect results.

YOUR RECOVERY
Healing happens in stages.
Tummy tuck recovery varies with the extent of surgery and your individual healing. You will receive instructions for incision care, activity, medications, and follow-up. Ask what help you may need at home and when you can return to work, driving, exercise, and other activities. Your personal instructions take priority over general timelines.

Rest and protect
Begin standing straighter
Ease back carefully
Gradually resume activity
Expect soreness, swelling, and tightness. You may need to walk slightly bent at first and gradually work toward standing straighter. Wear your faja and bra full-time as directed, and care for your drain according to your instructions.
Pain and mobility often begin to improve, and you may find it easier to stand more upright. Continue wearing your faja full-time. May begin breast exersies to help drop the implant. A drain may be removed at a follow-up visit if its output is low enough; some patients need it longer.
Many patients are standing upright by this stage. Continue wearing your faja as directed, and follow your drain plan if a drain remains. Avoid heavy lifting, strenuous activity, and abdominal muscle use until your surgical team clears you.
Your team may allow you to stop wearing the faja and ease back into more activities. Restrictions are lifted according to your healing and your surgeon’s guidance. Swelling continues to settle, and your contour often becomes more apparent around three months and beyond; healing continues after that.
MOTHERHOOD JOURNEY
Every Mother is Different
Every mother has a unique journey through pregnancy and motherhood, which influences her body in different ways. Factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and the number of pregnancies can lead to varying degrees of physical changes, making each woman's experience distinct. For some, pregnancy may result in significant weight gain and loss, leading to excess skin and stubborn fat pockets, while others may experience minimal changes. Additionally, individual preferences and goals for body image play a critical role in determining what a mommy makeover entails. As a result, the mommy makeover process is highly personalized, allowing mothers to choose specific procedures that address their unique concerns and help them feel confident in their post-baby bodies.
