Mommy Makeover Overview

A Mommy Makeover is not a single operation but a curated combination of procedures that may include tummy tuck, breast lift or augmentation, and targeted liposuction. The goal is to restore balance, tighten the core, and rejuvenate the breasts and torso with an elegant finish.

Procedure Deep Dive

Tummy Tuck: Flat, Firm, Supported

Pregnancy can weaken the midline fascia, leading to diastasis recti. A tummy tuck repairs the muscle layer and removes lax skin for a flatter abdomen and improved core support.

• Benefits: Better core support, flatter abdomen, reliable contour
• Incisions: Low and concealed to suit your garment preferences
• Finish: Natural umbilicus for an authentic look

Breast Lift / Augmentation: Shape & Proportion

Post-pregnancy, breasts may sag or relinquish volume. A lift elevates tissue while augmentation enhances fullness using fat transfer depending on your goals.

• Lift (Mastopexy): Repositions the nipple-areola complex and firms tissue
• Augmentation: Restores volume with silicone implants or autologous fat
• Combined: For patients who want both elevation and volume

Liposuction: Targeted Contouring

Even with great habits, localized fat pockets can persist. Liposuction sculpts these zones to highlight natural curves and enhance garment fit.

• Zones: Abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, back
• Approach: Measured reduction for smooth transitions
• Option: Micro-fat grafting to hips or buttocks for proportion

Optional Labiaplasty: Confidence & Symmetry

Pregnancy and delivery can stretch the labial tissues. Labiaplasty is a delicate reshaping that enhances comfort and symmetry while preserving natural form.

Patient Questions

Longevity of results?

If your weight stays steady, results can last for many years; natural aging continues but contours remain improved.

Will there be scars?

Incisions are designed to be as concealed as possible; proper care helps them mature over time.

Back to routine?

Many patients resume desk work in about two weeks, depending on the procedure mix.

Can I combine procedures?

Yes — combining procedures allows a comprehensive transformation with one consolidated recovery window.

Discomfort level

Contemporary anesthesia and pain-management protocols support a smooth recovery, especially during the first week.
