Does insurance cover mommy makeover surgery?
Unfortunately, strictly cosmetic surgical procedures are not typically covered by insurance. However, some involved procedures, such as a breast reduction to alleviate aching shoulders and back pain, could be covered if it is deemed medically necessary.
Does Barone Plastic Surgery accept financing?
Yes. We partner with companies like CareCredit® and ALPHAEON® Credit to provide our patients with flexible financing options and low/no-interest monthly payment plans. We also offer reasonable cash rates and specials on certain procedures.
Factors We Consider for Mommy Makeover Candidates
Before mommy makeover surgery, there are several factors Dr. Barone considers to determine if you are a good candidate. Some key areas she looks at when evaluating candidacy include:
Future pregnancies can reverse your results. It is best to be sure you do not want to get pregnant again to maintain your results for as long as possible.
Breastfeeding can impact the size and shape of your breasts. For optimal results, it is best to give your breasts at least six months to stabilize their size and shape.
A mommy makeover involves surgical procedures such as tummy tucks. Surgery carries risks. We want to ensure the safest possible procedure, so you must be in good overall health.
A mommy makeover can have transformative results. However, it is important that you have realistic expectations. Dr. Barone can work with you to help determine if your desires are achievable and help you set goals for your transformation.
Tobacco can hinder healing and increase your risk of developing issues such as blood clots and stroke. It is best to stop using tobacco products before your mommy makeover to ensure the safest possible procedure.

Your Mommy Makeover Timeline From Consultation to Recovery
Every mommy makeover at our San Antonio, TX, office follows a clear path designed to keep you informed and comfortable. The process involves these steps:
Life After Your Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover can be a turning point, but the months and years that follow are just as important as the procedure itself. Here is what San Antonio patients can expect once recovery is behind them.
Scar Care and Fading
Incision lines will continue to fade over the first year. Dr. Barone places incisions strategically so they can be concealed by most clothing and swimwear. She can also recommend scar care treatments to help them heal as smoothly as possible.
Enjoying Your Results
Once healing is complete, most patients experience a dramatic improvement in how they look and feel. Clothes fit better, confidence increases, and many women say they feel more like themselves. The physical changes from breast surgery, tummy tuck, and liposuction are designed to be long-lasting.
Maintaining Your Results
The best way to preserve your mommy makeover results is to maintain a stable weight through regular exercise and a balanced diet. Significant weight fluctuations can alter your contours over time. Dr. Barone will provide personalized guidance during your follow-up visits on how to protect your investment for years to come.
What About Future Pregnancies?
While a future pregnancy will not undo all of your results, it can reverse some of the improvements, particularly to the breasts and abdomen. That is why Dr. Barone recommends that mommy makeover candidates in San Antonio, TX, finish having children before moving forward with surgery.

Dr, Barone is one of the best surgeons I have met. I have worked for plastic surgeons and dermatologists during my long medical career, therefore I have a good judge of talent and character. Her experience, knowledge and skills are the best in San Antonio. I always have complete confidence when I have a procedure done that the outcome will be exactly as expected and looks natural! Why anyone would trust a subpar provider (not a surgeon) when they could have Dr Barone do procedures is beyond my comprehension. She is 100% the best!!

View on GoogleWe Also Provide Non-Invasive Options
/
If Dr. Barone believes she can meet your needs without surgery, she will always discuss those options. Our surgery center includes a spa area where you can receive several types of nonsurgical body sculpting procedures. These include fat transfer to enhance the breasts and ThermiTight™ skin-tightening.
We Offer Awake Surgery
The procedures involved in a mommy makeover are typically performed with the aid of general anesthesia. However, many patients suffer from nausea, disorientation, and decreased function due to general anesthesia. That is why Dr. Barone learned to provide awake breast lifts, breast augmentations, tummy tucks, and liposuction.
Awake surgery is completed with the use of a local anesthetic instead of general anesthesia. This allows San Antonio patients to remain conscious during their procedures and avoid negative side effects associated with more intensive sedation. After understanding your needs, she can recommend awake procedures or suggest the use of general anesthesia.
Frequently Asked Questions About Mommy Makeovers in San Antonio, TX
Q. How long does it take to heal after a mommy makeover?
A. This will depend on the procedures you have performed. For example, patients who undergo body contouring surgeries like liposuction or tummy tucks can expect to feel better within about two weeks. However, complete healing and final results may not be visible for up to six months. Healing time after breast surgeries can also depend on the type, as well as whether you have breast implants inserted. However, typical healing times for breast surgeries are up to six weeks.
Q. Can body contouring surgeries like tummy tucks and liposuction help me lose weight?
A. While these surgeries can address some stubborn body fat that does not respond to diet and exercise, they are not designed as weight loss procedures. Patients should be at or close to an ideal weight before any body contouring procedures for the best results.
