Your body after children, on your terms.

It's a personalized combination of procedures, not a set package. The most common are a tummy tuck, which can include repair of abdominal muscles that separated during pregnancy (diastasis recti), a breast lift, breast augmentation and liposuction. Some patients also discuss a breast reduction, an arm or thigh lift, labiaplasty or non-surgical skin tightening. Dr. Tehrani recommends a combination after evaluating you in person.

Dr. Tehrani generally recommends waiting at least six months after your last pregnancy and three months after you finish breastfeeding, and being at or near a stable weight. Ideally you've finished having children: a future pregnancy or significant weight change can affect your results, so if you're planning more children, waiting is usually recommended. Not sure? You can talk it through at your consultation.

Every surgery carries risk. Combining procedures can mean one anesthetic and one recovery, but a longer operation can also raise certain risks, such as blood clots. Dr. Tehrani decides whether to combine or stage procedures based on your health and your plan. In his words: “I limit anesthesia time to six hours, because the risk increases meaningfully after that.” Surgery takes place in a QUAD A–accredited surgical facility, with general anesthesia given by a board-certified anesthesiologist or a certified registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA).

Plan on at least two weeks away from work and caregiving. Many patients take two to four weeks, depending on the procedures combined and the demands of their job, and most daily activities resume within four to six weeks. Dr. Tehrani will give you a personal timeline.

Heavy lifting, including lifting young children, is restricted for six weeks or longer. Plan for another adult to take charge of little ones, especially in the first two weeks. Light walking starts early. Ask Dr. Tehrani how to hold and comfort your children safely while you heal; he will tell you when you are cleared to lift.

A tummy tuck removes stretch marks only on the skin that is removed. An existing C-section scar can often be incorporated into the tummy tuck incision, which is placed low so it can sit within underwear or bikini lines. Scars are permanent. They typically soften and fade over 12 to 18 months, and sometimes longer.

Some discomfort is expected in the first days. The practice offers EXPAREL®, a long-acting, non-opioid local anesthetic given during surgery and designed to ease pain for up to 72 hours; relief varies, so ask whether it's right for your plan. Drains may be used after a tummy tuck to prevent fluid buildup, and are removed at a follow-up visit. You'll wear compression garments for several weeks.

Swelling hides some of the change at first and settles gradually over the first months. Results continue to refine over roughly three to six months, and scars keep fading after that. Individual results vary.

Cost depends on the procedures you combine, the complexity of your plan and the surgical facility, so there's no single price. You receive a personalized quote at your consultation. Cosmetic procedures are self-pay. Monthly payment plans are available through CareCredit®, Alphaeon® Credit and Cherry, subject to credit approval; terms vary by lender.
