Get your pre-pregnancy body back with a Mommy Makeover.

The Mommy Makeover is a rejuvenating set of cosmetic surgical procedures designed to restore your pre-pregnancy figure. Normally, the procedure will include breast augmentation and/or breast lift and a tummy tuck. Depending on the patient, some women will also add a corrective surgery, such as liposuction, for a more sculpted, youthful result.

A woman who notices her figure change with age, following childbirth, or after a dramatic weight loss may make an excellent candidate for the Mommy Makeover. The ideal patient will be in good health, understand the surgical procedures, and hold realistic expectations for their final results.

Recovering from a Mommy Makeover will normally take from 10 days to six weeks. 

Most patients can return to work and other non-strenuous activities in less than one week.

The Mommy Makeover procedure is not a means of weight loss. While liposuction can help remove excess fat, the tummy tuck and breast enhancement are purely sculpting procedures. In fact, the ideal candidate for the Mommy Makeover will be someone close to an ideal, stable weight. However, some patients may have a Mommy Makeover as part of their ongoing weight loss efforts.

While the results from a Mommy Makeover can be long lasting, it is important to continue with a healthy lifestyle and consistent exercise routine. Significant weight gain or additional pregnancies can undo the surgical results. The longest-lasting results are found in women who maintain a stable weight.

Visible scarring will occur after a Mommy Makeover at the locations of the incisions; however, the scars typically fade over time. Incisions are carefully placed and meticulously closed with expert plastic surgical technique so they can easily be concealed under clothing or swimwear.

Mommy Makeover is considered a safe procedure. Any surgical technique will carry some risk of complications. Although rare, potential problems following a Mommy Makeover can include excessive bleeding, infection, and scarring.

Like other plastic surgery procedures, the price of a Mommy Makeover will vary based on a number of factors including the training, education, and experience of your plastic surgeon, as well as where the procedure is performed. In addition, because a Mommy Makeover typically includes a combination of procedures such as breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, liposuction, or a tummy tuck, the cost of your Mommy Makeover will depend on exactly which procedures you choose.

A Mommy Makeover is typically a combination of plastic surgery procedures that may include a breast surgery such as breast augmentation, breast lift, or breast reduction, as well as body contouring. The most popular body contouring options include liposuction and tummy tuck. For optimal results, a patient may add on other procedures at the same time such as arm lift or thigh lift.
