Mommy Makeover Overview

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

Common Goals

Tighten separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti)
Remove stretched skin and smooth the waistline
Restore breast position and volume
Reduce localized fat for smoother contours

Procedures Often Included

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty): Muscle repair + skin tailoring
Breast Lift/Augmentation: Lift shape; replenish volume if desired
Liposuction: Target stubborn fat in abdomen, flanks, thighs, or arms
Optional: Labiaplasty; autologous fat grafting for subtle volume

Procedure Deep Dive

Abdominoplasty: Flat, Firm, Supported

Pregnancy can stretch the midline fascia, leading to diastasis recti. A tummy tuck plications the muscle layer and tailors 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 & Balance

Post-pregnancy, breasts may descend or relinquish volume. A lift repositions tissue while augmentation restores fullness using fat transfer depending on your goals.

Lift (Mastopexy): Re-centers the nipple-areola complex and firms tissue
Augmentation: Adds volume with saline 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 refines these zones to highlight your silhouette and enhance garment fit.

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

Optional Labiaplasty: Comfort & Symmetry

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