Plastic Surgery Getting Ready for Summer! Let’s Talk Timing, Transformations, and Confidence!

Hey everyone,

As the weather warms up and we all start shifting into summer mode, I wanted to take a moment to talk about something many of my patients start thinking about around this time of year: getting summer ready.

Whether that means feeling more confident in a swimsuit, wanting to restore your body after having kids, or simply investing in the version of yourself you’ve been envisioning..this is the time to start planning.

Timing Is Everything

One of the most common questions I get is, “When should I get my procedure done if I want to be ready for summer?” My honest answer: right about now. Most procedures, especially body contouring and combination surgeries like mommy makeovers require a solid recovery window of at least 6-8 weeks for optimal results. Swelling goes down, the body adjusts, and results begin to reveal themselves more and more each week.

So, if you’re thinking July or August , May and June are the months to move forward.

Procedures That Shine in the Summer

Here are a few of the most popular transformations I perform leading into the warmer months:

Mommy Makeovers

These are one of my specialties and a favorite among my patients. A mommy makeover typically combines procedures like a tummy tuck, breast augmentation or lift, and liposuction. It’s all about restoring your body after pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight changes, and helping you feel like you again.

Breast Augmentations

Whether you're looking for volume, symmetry, or shape enhancement, breast augmentation continues to be one of the most impactful confidence-boosting procedures. My focus is always on achieving a natural, balanced look that compliments your frame and goals.

360 Lipo + BHeart® BBL

This combo is for those looking to sculpt the waistline and enhance the curves. I use VASER HiDef Lipo to contour the body with precision, and the BHeart® BBL technique for adding subtle volume and shape to the hips and glutes, without an overdone look. The result? A smoother silhouette and enhanced proportions that look natural.
