Why a Mommy Makeover?

Plastic surgery is often the only way to restore your body.

There’s no doubt that pregnancy is hard on your body. The muscle and skin tissues expand to accommodate the baby, especially in areas like the abdomen, hips, and breasts. The breasts lose volume and firmness as they shrink back down to their original size. Although diet and exercise may help you lose post-pregnancy weight, plastic surgery is often the only way to restore a tight, shapely figure.

The Mommy Makeover at Clevens Face and Body Specialists combines several techniques — often breast augmentation, breast lift, tummy tuck, and Liponique Body Contouring — tailored to your goals. Some patients even choose to add an arm lift or thigh lift, too. Watch the video to learn more about Mommy Makeover.

Mommy Makeover Benefits

The benefits of multiple procedures all at once. 

Since your Mommy Makeover is customized to your needs, you can realize numerous benefits in one procedure, allowing you to minimize downtime and address all your areas of concern for optimal results.

For many patients, that means adding lift and restoring fullness and volume with a breast augmentation and breast lift, as well as removing loose skin and tightening up abdominal muscles with a tummy tuck. You may also add Liponique, our signature approach to liposuction that safely removes excess fat deposits and, in turn, reveals beautiful body contours. Arm and thigh lifts can help you further tighten up your body and remove loose, sagging skin. Talk with the breast and body plastic surgery specialists at Clevens Face and Body Specialists about your goals to see what a Mommy Makeover can do for you.

Mommy Makeover Recovery

Begin recovery the same day as your procedure. 

Most women are home recovering from their Mommy Makeover the same day. The entire recovery process will take 10 days to six weeks, depending on the treatments you choose. To aid in the most comfortable recovery possible, we offer a game-changing local analgesic medicine, Exparel, used while you’re still asleep during your procedure. Exparel minimizes pain post-surgery and reduces the need for any narcotic pain medications and the nausea they cause.

Exparel is often combined with TXA (tranexamic acid) and your body’s own natural healing cells to reduce bruising, minimize pain, and speed healing. During your consultation, we can discuss whether this option is right for you so you can get back to your daily routine more quickly. 

Most patients return to work about 10 to 14 days after surgery, though we recommend waiting six weeks before resuming heavy exercise. As your body fully heals over three to four months, you'll see the benefits of your Mommy Makeover continue to reveal themselves.
