Mommy Makeover

Comprehensive Structural Restoration After Pregnancy

What is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is a personalized surgical plan designed to address the structural changes that occur with pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight fluctuation.

Pregnancy can stretch the abdominal wall, separate the rectus muscles, reduce skin elasticity, and alter breast volume and position.

Rather than treating one area alone, this approach restores balance between the breasts, abdomen, waist, and surrounding contours. Each plan is tailored to your anatomy, tissue quality, and goals to restore proportion and support.

Frequently asked questions

Timing is important for long-term stability. Surgery is typically recommended once childbearing is complete and breastfeeding has concluded, allowing tissues and hormone levels to stabilize.
Pregnancy is still possible after surgery. However, it can alter the surgical result, particularly in the abdomen and breasts. For this reason, most patients choose to proceed after completing their family.
A Mommy Makeover combines procedures to address post-pregnancy changes in the breasts and abdomen. This often includes a tummy tuck, breast lift with or without augmentation or reduction, and liposuction. The plan is fully customized to restore structural balance across treated areas.
Recovery varies based on the procedures performed. Most patients require approximately 2 to 3 weeks of initial downtime, with a gradual return to normal activity over the following weeks. A structured recovery protocol is used to support safe healing across multiple surgical sites.
Yes, when carefully planned. Combining procedures can be performed safely in a single operation, reducing overall recovery time compared to staging. Surgical planning is based on operative time, complexity, and overall health.
Cost varies depending on the number of procedures, surgical complexity, and whether treatments are combined or staged. A personalized plan is developed during consultation, and exact pricing is reviewed afterward with the surgical coordinator.
