A Comprehensive Renewal for Moms

Motherhood is an extraordinary experience that brings joy and fulfillment, but it can also lead to significant physical changes. For many women, returning to their pre-pregnancy body can be challenging, despite diet and exercise. The Mommy Makeover procedure offers an integrated solution to address these bodily transformations, helping women regain their shape and confidence.

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.

A Mommy Makeover can include a tummy tuck, liposuction, breast augmentation, breast lift, and Brazilian butt lift. The exact combination of procedures will be tailored to the individual needs of the patient.
Recovery time depends on the procedures performed. Generally, patients can expect an initial recovery period of 1-2 weeks, with a return to normal physical activities after about 6 weeks.
It is possible but not advisable, as future pregnancies could compromise the results achieved with the Mommy Makeover. It is best to plan the procedure once you have decided not to have more children.
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks of complications, including infections, hematomas, unsatisfactory scarring, and reactions to anesthesia. It is important to discuss these risks during the consultation.

Where do I even begin? This review is long overdue.

I had surgery with Dr Marcellino for a scar revision, uplift, and implants back in November. Following a previous breast reduction with another surgeon that unfortunately left me with severe keloid scarring. This completely destroyed my confidence for years, so choosing to go through surgery again was a huge decision for me.

From my initial consultation a few months prior to surgery, right through to the operation itself and the aftercare, the entire process with Dr Marcellino and his team was nothing short of incredible. Everything was seamless, effortless, and reassuring with absolutely zero issues before or after surgery.

The results have honestly changed my life. My scarring is now minimal to almost nonexistent, and I have never felt this confident in my body throughout my twenties. Dr Marcellino’s attention to detail is second to none. The lift looks so natural that you would never even know I have implants. He truly listened to my concerns and fully understood my vision for how I wanted them to look — and he exceeded every expectation.

I cannot thank Dr Marcellino enough, along with his incredible team and nurses who work alongside him. If you are considering a cosmetic procedure anywhere in the UK, I genuinely believe this is the surgeon you should trust.

I first met Dr Marcellino in 2006 when I had an upper blepharoplasty performed by him. The results were amazing and although the change was subtle, to me it felt massive in that it gave me confidence and really opened up my eyes.
Now nearly 20 years later I noticed my eyelids were a bit droopy again and so went back to see him.. I have just had another upper blepharoplasty and could not be happier, just as good as the first time.
It has been clear to me throughout that Dr Marcellino is very skilled which has made me feel safe. He has such a nice warm, kind and caring way about him. His 2 P A’s Giunko and Winta have also been very helpful and always available. Nothing is ever too much trouble for this team.
I cannot recommend Dr Marcellino enough and feel he has given me back a spring in my step😀 Very happy.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for your continued trust over nearly 20 years. Dr. Marcellino and the entire team are delighted to hear that your upper blepharoplasty has once again met your expectations, helping you feel confident and rejuvenated. Providing skilled, attentive, and caring support throughout every step is always our priority, and we are thrilled that you felt safe and well-supported. Your recommendation means a great deal to us, and we are grateful to have contributed to your satisfaction and renewed confidence.

I Got breast implants once and notice things started to change plus it is against Jesus to get a nose job breast implants, or butt injection but if you do not get any breast implants nose job or butt injections then you have a really good chance at a better life and it is not against Jesus to not get breast implants. You can ask Jesus for forgiveness and has the power to forgive sin.

Mastoplastica additiva
Finalmente dopo anni il Dottor Marcellino mi ha permesso di avere il corpo che desidero.
Dopo aver perso molti kg il mio seno era completamente svuotato e dopo la gravidanza era anche sceso.
Con tatto, professionalità e profonda carineria il Dottor Marcellino da subito si è mostrato attento e comprensivo verso le mie esigenze e mi ha consigliato la protesi più giusta per me.
Ho così ottenuto un seno pieno sodo alto senza risultare però troppo vistoso o volgare.
Il post chirurgico è stato molto soft ed eccetto la stanchezza causata dall’ anestesia me la sono cavata con un blandissimo antinfiammatorio al giorno per soli tre giorni. Consiglio il dottore a ogni donna che vuole sentirsi bene con se stessa.
Grazie di vero cuore
Response from the owner:La ringraziamo di cuore per le sue parole così generose. Per il Dott. Marcellino è fondamentale ascoltare attentamente ogni paziente, comprendere le sue esigenze e accompagnarla con professionalità, tatto e attenzione in tutte le fasi del percorso. Siamo felici che il risultato abbia soddisfatto le sue aspettative, garantendo un aspetto naturale e armonioso, e che il post-operatorio sia stato gestibile e sereno. Grazie per la fiducia accordata e per consigliare la nostra esperienza ad altre donne.

I have done my surgery with dr max and im very happy with results he is a expert on breast surgery and that was one of the reasons that i choose him.
I highly recommend his clinic.

Received top eyelid surgery (Blepharoplasty) in June 2025 thank you to Dr Marcellino for taking great care of me the results are truly remarkable bravo grazie

I had a breast augmentation with Dr Marcellino and my experience was outstanding. I had seen a few surgeons already by the time I met Dr Max and as soon as I had my consultation, I knew I had found the right surgeon. He has a very relaxed demeanour which immediately puts you at ease and he takes a lot of time to go through all the questions you might have. I'd done my research on his track record so knew I was in good hands. The operation went smoothly and I can't believe it has been 5 months already - I'm delighted with the results and only wish I had done it sooner!

I had a breast augmentation with Dr Max Marcellino and I am so happy with the results. I had been wanting a breast enlargement for years + I did a lot of research into the procedure and different surgeons in London and I wasn’t happy with any surgeon until I came across Dr Marcellino, who was recommended to me by a relative. Probably the best decision I ever made, having this surgery done by him as he is simply amazing! From the first appointment to my surgery and now in my recovery he and his team have been beyond excellent. I was very nervous about my surgery, I wasn’t too sure what to expect but the anaesthesiologists were amazing with keeping me calm as well as my Nurse ‘Esther’. Really made me feel comfortable and reassured me that everything will be okay and it did. Nearly a month into my recovery and I couldn’t be happier with my results, I am so glad that I chose Dr Marcellino because realistically I wouldn’t of had the surgery done if I didn’t find him.

Thank you so much for making my confidence boost and making me feel beautiful :) I really recommend Dr Marcellino, and all the staff at The London Welbeck Hospital :)
