What Is a Mommy Makeover?

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

Inside the Procedure Suite

Tummy Tuck: Flat, Firm, Supported

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

• Benefits: Improved posture, defined waist, lasting contour
• Incisions: Low and concealed to suit your garment preferences
• Finish: Refined belly-button shaping for an authentic look

Breast Lift / Augmentation: Projection & Balance

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

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

Liposuction: Targeted Contouring

Even with great habits, localized fat pockets can persist. Liposuction sculpts these zones to highlight your silhouette 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 precise reshaping that enhances comfort and symmetry while respecting natural form.

Patient Questions

Longevity of results?

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

What about scarring?

Incisions are placed low to be as concealed as possible; proper care helps them fade 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

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