- Stable weight at target
- Non-smoker (or 6+ weeks nicotine-free)
- No uncontrolled comorbidity
- Realistic expectations for scar and recovery
How the case is sequenced
Liposuction is performed first (often in prone position) to avoid distorting the abdominal skin flap. The patient is repositioned supine for the abdominoplasty and breast component. Sequential compression devices run throughout. Drains are typically placed for the abdominoplasty; breast drains vary by technique.
Anesthesia
General anesthesia in an accredited surgical facility, with standardized DVT prophylaxis and often overnight monitoring.

Frequently asked questions
- What is included in a mommy makeover with lipo?
- Typically an abdominoplasty (with diastasis repair), breast surgery (lift, augmentation, or reduction), and 360° liposuction of the flanks, back, and upper abdomen — combined in one operation with a single recovery.
- Is it safe to combine that much surgery?
- In appropriately selected non-smoking healthy patients, yes. Total operative time is the key metric — most Miami surgeons keep combined cases under 6 hours and use standardized DVT prophylaxis.
- When am I a candidate?
- Post-pregnancy, done having children (or accepting future pregnancy would affect results), at a stable weight, non-smoker, and medically cleared. Breastfeeding must be complete for several months.
- How much does a mommy makeover with lipo cost in Miami?
- Full mommy makeover with lipoabdominoplasty and breast surgery in Miami is $18,000–$32,000+ depending on breast component (implant vs. lift vs. reduction) and lipo volume.
- What is recovery like?
- Combined recovery is dominated by the abdominoplasty: 2–3 weeks off work, 6 weeks before cardio, 8–10 weeks before heavy lifting. Overnight stay is common.
- Can BBL be added?
- Adding BBL to a mommy makeover is technically possible but rare — it adds significant operative time and complexity. Many surgeons stage BBL as a separate operation.
- What are the risks vs. staging?
- Combined mommy makeover has higher DVT and skin-flap risk than isolated procedures. Staging reduces per-operation risk but doubles anesthesia exposure and doubles downtime.
