Our personalized approach has made a real difference in these lives of our patients - here’s what they have to say about their journey with us.
"The all female team helped me feel comfortable..."
When searching for a surgeon for my Mommy Makeover, I was immediately drawn to Dr. Shih's clinic at Burlington Plastic Surgery. The all female team helped me feel comfortable in my surroundings from the start, especially since plastic surgery was completely new to me. During my first consultation with Dr Shih, I felt my concerns and questions were thoroughly and professionally answered, and I was certain that this was where I wanted to have my surgery preformed. The staff, and Surgical Coordinator, Ashley, were all very kind and attentive; excellent listeners, and ready to help with whatever questions I had.
"Erased any anxiety I had..."
When I met with Dr. Shih the morning of my surgery, she had a warm and confident energy that really erased any anxiety I had over having surgery for the first time. She set enough time to prepare me for surgery, to answer questions, to confirm my goals and to discuss after care. My recovery went better than I had anticipated. I appreciated having a follow up appointment within my first week and it meant I felt reassured that I was healing well. Dr. Shih supported my return to exercise and my daily routine with suggestions to help with minor swelling and discomfort.
"I couldn't be happier with the results!"
I recently had a breast augmentation with Dr. Shih, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From the very first consultation, Dr. Shih's expertise and attention to detail put me at ease. Dr. Shih and her assistant, Andrea, took the time to understand my goals and provided excellent guidance throughout the process. The surgery went smoothly, and the results are just fantastic—exactly what I was hoping for! Both Dr. Shih and Andrea, were incredibly supportive and responsive at every step. They made the entire experience feel personal and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Shih for anyone considering this procedure!

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the most common questions we hear about Mommy Makeovers in Burlington
What is a Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover is a customized combination of procedures—commonly tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), breast lift or augmentation, and liposuction—designed to restore body shape, strength, and confidence after pregnancy.
Who is a good candidate for a Mommy Makeover?
Ideal candidates are adults finished with childbearing (or delaying future pregnancies), in good overall health, and wanting combined surgery to address stubborn abdominal laxity, breast changes, and localized fat.
When is the right time to get a Mommy Makeover after pregnancy?
Wait until you’ve completed breastfeeding and your weight has stabilized—typically 3–6 months after finishing breastfeeding and 6–12 months after delivery—so tissues and hormones have settled for more predictable results.
Can I combine procedures into a single surgery?
Yes—many patients safely combine tummy tuck, breast lift/augmentation, and liposuction into one coordinated operation to minimize total recovery time. Your surgeon will advise the best staging for safety and outcome.
How long is recovery and when can I return to normal life?
Initial rest is usually 1–2 weeks; many patients return to light activities within 2–4 weeks and resume full exercise around 6–12 weeks. Recovery varies by procedure combination—detailed timelines are provided during consultation.
Will a Mommy Makeover affect breastfeeding or future pregnancies?
Breast procedures may affect breastfeeding depending on technique; discuss desires for future nursing with your surgeon. Future pregnancies can undo results—surgeons typically recommend completing childbearing before elective Mommy Makeover surgery.
How long do results last?
Results are long-lasting when paired with a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Aging and future pregnancies will affect outcomes; many patients enjoy durable improvements in contour and comfort for years.
What are the main risks and how are they minimized?
Risks are the usual surgical ones (bleeding, infection, scarring, wound-healing issues). Choosing a board-supervised surgeon, following pre/post-op instructions, and personalized perioperative planning significantly reduce risk and improve outcomes.
How do I prepare for a Mommy Makeover consultation?
Bring a list of medications, your surgical goals, photos if helpful, and your medical history. Be ready to discuss breastfeeding history, future pregnancy plans, and lifestyle so the team can recommend a safe, personalized plan.
How much does a Mommy Makeover cost and is it covered by insurance?
Cost varies by the procedures included, facility and anesthesia. Mommy Makeovers are typically cosmetic and paid privately; if a component addresses a medical issue (e.g., diastasis repair causing functional problems), partial coverage may apply—confirm with your insurer and get a detailed quote at consultation.
