How long should I wait after giving birth for a mommy makeover?
Consider a mommy makeover six months to a year after giving birth or six months after stopping breastfeeding. First, focus on exercising and dieting to lose post-baby weight. You might notice stretch marks and less skin firmness, and breastfeeding can affect breast and skin elasticity, leading to sagging.
Can I get a mommy makeover and still breastfeed?
Yes, it is possible to breastfeed even after a breast augmentation.

Ideally, mothers should wait six months after breastfeeding their last child before moving forward with a breast augmentation.
Do I have to be a mother to get a mommy makeover?
