Mommy Makeover
Becoming a mom changes your life forever in an amazing way! However, pregnancy may permanently alter your body by stretching out abdominal muscles, leaving behind sagging skin, or creating unwanted fat deposits. A Mommy Makeover combines several procedures in one to restore your body, recreating youthful, feminine contours that inspire confidence in your appearance.
Am I a good candidate for a
Mommy Makeover?
If you are otherwise healthy, a non-smoker and at a stable weight, you could be a good candidate for a mommy makeover to rejuvenate breasts and body that have undergone changes due to pregnancy, weight loss or aging. A Mommy Makeover is not recommended for women who plan to have more children or who are still nursing a child.
Which procedures can I include in my Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover typically involves any combination of the four procedures listed above (tummy tuck, liposuction, breast augmentation, and/or breast lift). However, this procedure is completely customizable and may combine other related procedures such as facial resurfacing or vaginal rejuvenation to get you closer to your pre-pregnancy appearance.
1
Tummy Tuck
A Mommy Makeover typically includes a tummy tuck, also known as an abdominoplasty, to repair separated abdominal muscles called a rectus diastasis, remove sagging skin, and eliminate stubborn belly fat. Afterward, you will have a firmer and flatter abdomen with a narrower waist contour and an “innie” bellybutton.
2
Liposuction
A Mommy Makeover may incorporate liposuction anywhere on the body. Whether you have extra fat on your abdomen, hips, thighs, upper arms, or anywhere else, liposuction can help you smooth these areas to achieve a better contour.
3
Breast Augmentation
A Mommy Makeover may include breast augmentation for women whose breasts have become deflated after pregnancy and nursing. With the use of implants or fat grafting, this customizable procedure adds volume for fuller looking breasts.
4
Breast Lift
A Mommy Makeover may include a breast lift to reverse tissue sagging. This procedure brings the nipple and areola back to the correct location to give a youthful shape to the breast. It can also be done in combination with breast augmentation.
