A Combination Procedure Customized for You

What Procedures are Included with a Mommy Makeover?

While every mommy makeover surgical plan is as unique as the individual patient, there are a few breast and body procedures that are frequently included in the surgery to achieve optimal results.

Your mommy makeover can include any combination of procedures and treatments that safely achieve your goals.

This procedure is perfect for removing excess abdominal skin, localized fat, and even stretch marks. A tummy tuck can also repair the separation of abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), which can be an uncomfortable condition for some women.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding can take a toll on your breasts, causing them to droop or deflate; However, a breast lift can raise them to their original position.
This treatment is often included to remove pockets of diet- and exercise-resistant fat for a more contoured look. It is frequently performed on the abdomen, hips, thighs, or arms.
Child birth can affect tissue in this sensitive area, creating the appearance of additional tissue. A Labiaplasty can reduce the size of the inner and/or outer labia, or it can correct asymmetrical labia.

Recovery After a Mommy Makeover

Recovery After a Mommy Makeover

Recovery from a mommy makeover depends on the combination of procedures you undergo but can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months.

You can expect to experience bruising, swelling, and discomfort in the days following your procedure. Prescribed pain medication can help to alleviate any discomfort, and compression garments will help to reduce swelling by promoting blood circulation.

You will need the assistance of a friend or family member during the initial days of your recovery to help with all day-to-day chores, such as cooking, cleaning, and childcare. Most women return to work within one to two weeks, but strenuous exercise, including heavy lifting, should be avoided for at least four to six weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Mommy Makeovers

Every surgical procedure requires a period of recovery, and while undergoing two or three different procedures at the same time does not mean that you will heal any faster, it does mean that you will only have to go through the healing process once, rather than multiple times.
After the birth of a child, it may take several months for your body to return to its pre-pregnancy form. The abdomen and breasts will have undergone significant changes and the body will require time before it has fully returned to its pre-pregnancy state. Undergoing any form of plastic surgery while the body is in the process of growing or healing is not recommended. In order to ensure that you have a long-lasting result, you should be at your goal weight for at least six months and have stopped breast-feeding for six months before undergoing a mommy makeover.
A mommy makeover is really simply a term used to describe a combination of procedures that address significant changes in multiple areas of the body. Women, or even men, can experience similar changes as a result of significant weight loss or even the gradual effects of aging. There are many benefits to performing related cosmetic surgery procedures during the same surgical session.
The best results are achieved when you’re at or near your ideal weight and can maintain it long-term. A mommy makeover is not a weight-loss procedure but focuses on contouring and tightening areas that don’t respond to diet and exercise.
Your journey to renewed confidence begins with a personalized consultation with Dr. Amy Alderman. During this one-on-one appointment, Dr. Alam will take some time to understand your unique concerns, aesthetic goals, and lifestyle, ensuring that your Mommy Makeover is tailored just for you.
