Mommy Makeover Overview

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 restore proportion, tighten the core, and rejuvenate 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 sleeker abdomen and enhanced core support.

• Benefits: Better core support, defined waist, reliable contour
• Incisions: Low and concealed to suit your garment preferences
• Finish: Refined belly-button shaping for an authentic look

Breast Lift / Augmentation: Shape & Proportion

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

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

Liposuction: Targeted Contouring

Even with great habits, isolated fat pockets can persist. Liposuction refines these zones to highlight your silhouette and improve garment fit.

• Zones: Abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, back
• Approach: Strategic reduction for smooth transitions
• Option: Fat transfer to hips or buttocks for proportion

Optional Labiaplasty: Comfort & Symmetry

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