Mommy Makeover

What Is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is a customized combination of cosmetic procedures designed to restore a woman’s body after pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. It typically includes treatments that target the breasts, abdomen, waist, hips, and sometimes thighs or buttocks.

This comprehensive approach helps women regain their pre-pregnancy figure, addressing stretched skin, separated muscles, volume loss, and stubborn fat that can be resistant to diet and exercise.

Why Do Women Choose a Mommy Makeover?

  • To lift and reshape the breasts after breastfeeding
  • To tighten loose abdominal muscles and skin after pregnancy
  • To remove stretch marks or sagging tissue
  • To eliminate stubborn fat deposits around the waist, hips, and thighs
  • To restore confidence, comfort, and body image
  • To feel great again in fitted clothing, swimwear, and daily life

Who Is a Good Candidate?

  • You may be a suitable candidate for a Mommy Makeover if you:

    • Are done with childbearing and not planning future pregnancies

    • Are at a stable, healthy weight

    • Have realistic expectations about your post-op body

    • Are in good health and a non-smoker

    • Are bothered by sagging breasts, loose abdominal skin, or localized fat that doesn’t respond to exercise

    Note: Mommy Makeovers can also be beneficial for women who haven’t had children but have experienced similar body changes due to weight loss or aging.

Common Mommy Makeover Procedures

Liposuction can be performed almost anywhere fat collects.

Common areas include:

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Raises and reshapes sagging breasts caused by pregnancy or nursing. May be combined with:

    • Breast Augmentation (implants or fat transfer) for lost volume

    • Breast Reduction to relieve back or shoulder pain

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

Removes loose skin and tightens the abdominal muscles (rectus diastasis) for a firmer, flatter midsection.

Liposuction

Targets stubborn fat in the flanks, thighs, arms, back, and waist, contouring your silhouette and enhancing other surgical results.

Fat Transfer (Optional)

Uses your own fat to enhance buttocks (BBL) or correct volume loss in the hips or breasts.

Labiaplasty (Optional)

Addresses stretching or discomfort in the labial area following childbirth, restoring both form and comfort.

Frequently asked questions

You should wait at least 6 months after delivery and 3–6 months after breastfeeding to allow hormones and tissue to stabilize.

Yes. Mommy Makeovers are routinely and safely performed together when done by a qualified, board-certified surgeon with proper planning and monitoring.

Yes, but incisions are strategically placed, and scars fade over time. Scar care regimens will be provided to help minimize them.

Technically yes, but pregnancy may reverse your results. It’s best to undergo the procedure when you’re finished having children.

You can begin light walking after 1–2 days, but strenuous workouts should be avoided for 4–6 weeks, depending on your healing progress.

Recovery varies, but most women resume basic activities in 2 weeks and full routines after 6–8 weeks.

Most women return to desk jobs within 2–3 weeks, depending on the extent of the procedures and support at home.

Yes—abdominoplasty removes the skin below the belly button, which often contains stretch marks. However, remaining marks outside that zone won’t be eliminated.

You may lose a few kilos of tissue, but the primary goal is contouring, not weight loss. Ideal results come with maintaining a healthy weight.

If breast augmentation or lift is performed without disturbing the milk ducts, future breastfeeding is possible, though not guaranteed.

No. While inspired by post-pregnancy body changes, this makeover can benefit any woman who has experienced aging, weight fluctuations, or physical transformation.
