What is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is a personalized package of cosmetic surgical procedures designed to correct the physical changes that a woman’s body undergoes during pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. These changes can include:

• Sagging or deflated breasts
• Excess abdominal skin
• Diastasis recti (separated abdominal muscles)
• Skin laxity
• Stubborn fat deposits

These procedures aim to restore a woman’s appearance and confidence, often combining multiple surgeries in one session to optimize results and reduce recovery time.

Common Procedures

Each Mommy Makeover is customized based on the patient’s specific needs, but the most common procedures include:

1. Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty):
   • Removes excess skin and repairs separated abdominal muscles, improving the shape and firmness of the abdomen.
2. Liposuction:
   • Eliminates excess fat from areas such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, and arms, sculpting and slimming the body.
3. Breast Augmentation:
   • Increases breast volume using saline or silicone implants, restoring fullness lost during breastfeeding.
4. Breast Lift (Mastopexy):
   • Raises sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissues for a more youthful and firm appearance.

Benefits of a Mommy Makeover

• Reduced Cost:
  • Combining multiple procedures in one surgery can significantly lower costs compared to performing each procedure separately.
• Consolidated Recovery Time:
  • A single recovery period for multiple procedures is more convenient and less time-consuming than separate recovery periods.
• Improved Physical Appearance and Confidence:
  • Women who undergo a Mommy Makeover often report a significant boost in self-confidence and overall well-being.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate for a Mommy Makeover is a woman who:

• Does not plan to have more children, as future pregnancies could alter the results.
• Is in good overall health and maintains a stable weight.
• Does not smoke, as smoking can interfere with healing and increase surgical risks.

Preparation and Recovery

Before the Procedure:

• Consultation: During the consultation, we will discuss your expectations and treatment options, assessing your overall health and medical history.
• Preparation: You will need to stop smoking at least six weeks before the surgery and maintain a stable weight to achieve the best results.

After the Procedure:

• Recovery: Recovery time varies depending on the specific procedures performed. Generally, patients can expect to take a break from work for about 1-2 weeks and avoid strenuous physical activities for at least 6 weeks.
• Post-Operative Care: It is crucial to follow post-operative instructions carefully to ensure optimal healing. This may include wearing compression garments, taking pain medications, and limiting physical activities.
