What is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is a personalized combination of cosmetic procedures designed to address the physical changes many women experience after pregnancy and breastfeeding. It typically includes a mix of breast enhancement, tummy tuck, and body contouring procedures to restore the body to a more youthful and toned appearance.

Who is a Good Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is an excellent option for women who are bothered by the following post-pregnancy changes:

Sagging or Deflated Breasts

If pregnancy and breastfeeding have left your breasts with a loss of volume and sagging, breast augmentation and/or lift procedures can restore fullness and uplifted contours.

Stubborn Abdominal Pooch

Many women struggle with excess skin and weakened abdominal muscles after childbirth. A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, can tighten the abdominal muscles and remove excess skin, providing a flatter and more sculpted midsection.

Excess Fat and Body Contour Irregularities

Even with a healthy diet and regular exercise, some women find it challenging to eliminate stubborn fat deposits. Liposuction can target these areas and improve overall body contours.

Stretch Marks and Skin Laxity

A Mommy Makeover can include skin rejuvenation treatments, such as laser therapy or radiofrequency, to reduce stretch marks and tighten loose skin, restoring a smoother and youthful appearance.

Is a Mommy Makeover Right for You?

While a Mommy Makeover offers transformative results, it’s essential to be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the outcomes. Ideal candidates should have:

Stabilized Weight

Achieving and maintaining a stable weight before considering a Mommy Makeover is essential for optimal and long-lasting results.

Completed Childbearing

Women considering a Mommy Makeover should be done having children, as future pregnancies can diminish the impact of results.

Good Physical Health

Good overall health and being a non-smoker are essential for safe and successful surgical procedures.
