Tummy Tuck & Breast Augmentation in Mommy Makeover

This 38-year-old New York-area woman was 5 feet 3 inches tall and 126 pounds. After giving birth to 3 children, she felt that she had lost her figure and said she only wanted her old body back. We decided to perform both a breast augmentation and a tummy tuck as a "mommy makeover" in NYC.
