Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover is a combination of surgical procedures designed to restore a woman’s body after pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. This customized treatment plan typically includes procedures like a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), breast lift or augmentation, and liposuction, though other procedures may be included based on the patient's individual needs. The goal of a mommy makeover is to rejuvenate the body by addressing common concerns such as sagging skin, loss of breast volume, and stubborn fat. The procedure is tailored to the patient's desired outcome, helping to restore a more youthful, toned, and balanced appearance. Recovery time varies depending on the procedures included, but many women enjoy a rejuvenated body and increased confidence after healing.
Key Benefits of Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover rejuvenates your body by addressing the most common post-pregnancy changes in the breasts, abdomen, and body contours. This comprehensive approach restores a firmer tummy, reshapes and lifts the breasts, and enhances overall body shape for a more youthful, confident appearance. By combining procedures, it provides more dramatic and balanced results with one recovery period. Patients enjoy a smoother silhouette, improved confidence, and a body that feels more like them again.

Recovery After Mommy Makeover
Mommy makeover recovery combines healing from multiple procedures, so the timeline is a bit longer, but results are absolutely worth it. You’ll notice improvements right away, with full results becoming more defined as swelling settles and tissues heal. Most patients return to light activities within a couple of weeks and feel progressively stronger each day. Following post-op instructions and giving your body proper rest helps ensure smooth healing and beautiful, long-lasting results.

Light walking encouraged from day 1 to support circulation
Return to daily routines in 10 to 14 days (depending on procedures)
Compression garment worn for 4 to 6 weeks
