A mommy makeover is a completely customizable combination of procedures designed to address your unique concerns related to body changes after pregnancy. Here are some of the procedures you should consider including in your mommy makeover.
-
Breast Augmentation + Breast Lift
After pregnancy and breastfeeding, many women feel unhappy with the appearance of their breasts, and breast surgery of some kind is a common component of a mommy makeover. A breast augmentation can restore lost volume, while a breast lift can correct sagging that often occurs as a result of pregnancy and breastfeeding.*
-
Tummy Tuck
With very few exceptions, almost all women will choose to include a tummy tuck as part of a mommy makeover. The tummy undoubtedly endures the largest changes during pregnancy, with stomach skin and the underlying muscles stretching and expanding to accommodate your growing baby. A tummy tuck helps on both fronts by removing excess skin to smooth the midsection and repairing and tightening the abdominal wall.*
-
Liposuction
A tummy tuck is a comprehensive surgery, but there are limitations to what it can do. Abdominoplasty can remove excess fat that is connected to the loose skin being removed, yet it doesn’t improve the rest of the abdomen. Liposuction can be an ideal complement to a tummy tuck because it allows your plastic surgeon to target and remove excess fat around the entire waistline.* Most women agree that including liposuction in a mommy makeover delivers a better overall result.*
