What does a mommy makeover actually do for a patient’s confidence and body? In this episode of Big Butts No Lies, Mavi sits down with Houston-based board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Cara Downey to break down how breast augmentation, liposuction, and abdominoplasty work together to restore what pregnancy or weight loss has changed. 

Dr. Downey shares her expertise on why this journey is about more than just "getting a surgery"—it’s about safety, timing, and understanding how your body heals. We dive into the rise of GLP-1 weight loss medications, how they impact anesthesia, and what you need to know about tummy tuck recovery before stepping into a consultation.

Inside this conversation:
-The real impact of a mommy makeover on patient lives 
-Why you must stop GLP-1 weight loss meds before a tummy tuck 
-Combining breast augmentation surgery with body contouring 
-Tummy tuck recovery tips: Drains, garments, and the healing process 
-Addressing skin laxity after massive weight loss 
-Why choosing a board-certified surgeon is your #1 safety move
