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, repair the core, and refresh the breasts and torso with an elegant finish.

Inside the Procedure Suite

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 sleeker abdomen and enhanced core support.

• Benefits: Improved posture, 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: Projection & Proportion

Post-pregnancy, breasts may sag 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: Restores 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 natural curves 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 change the labial tissues. Labiaplasty is a delicate reshaping that improves comfort and symmetry while respecting natural form.

Your Questions Answered

How long do results last?

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

Will there be scars?

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

When can I return to work?

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

Combining procedures

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

Is it painful?

Modern anesthesia and pain-management protocols keep discomfort manageable, especially during the first week.
