Mommy Makeover
Recovery House
Mommy makeover combines multiple procedures - and recovering from all of them simultaneously requires more clinical attention than any single surgery alone. DR BetterSelf's nurses, therapists, and care team address every procedure area throughout your stay in Santo Domingo.
What Is Mommy Makeover Recovery?
Mommy makeover recovery refers to post-operative care following combination plastic surgery - typically tummy tuck, breast lift or augmentation, and liposuction performed simultaneously. Recovery is more complex than any single procedure because drain management, lymphatic drainage, wound care, and compression requirements must be addressed across multiple body areas at once. At DR BetterSelf Recovery House in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, our licensed nurses and certified MLD therapists are experienced in multi-procedure recovery management.
Multiple Procedures Mean
Multiple Care Requirements
When a tummy tuck is combined with a breast lift and liposuction, you are managing three distinct wound healing processes, potentially two separate drain systems, compression requirements across both the abdominal and chest areas, and lymphatic disruption from multiple treatment zones - all at the same time, with the same body.
Our licensed nurses are briefed on every procedure component before you arrive. Your care plan addresses each one specifically. MLD sessions target all affected areas. Wound assessments cover every incision site. Compression management addresses both abdominal and chest requirements.
For women who have invested in a mommy makeover, DR BetterSelf provides the clinical infrastructure capable of managing this complexity with genuine professional rigor - in a private, comfortable environment where your only job is to rest and heal.
