Mommy Makeover | Tucson, AZ

Home   »  Cosmetic Surgery  »  Body Procedures  »   Mommy Makeover

Pregnancy and breastfeeding lead to significant changes in the body, leaving many patients wishing they could restore the look they once had. A mommy makeover combines procedures such as tummy tuck, breast augmentation, and labiaplasty to enhance a woman’s confidence.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

For many women, pregnancy can change many areas of the body, which do not always return to normal. A mommy makeover is a personalized set of procedures that aim to help a woman address common changes in the breasts and body for a more youthful appearance. Some common goals of the mommy makeover procedure include:

  • Correcting sagging breasts.
  • Restoring volume to the breasts.
  • Improving breast asymmetry.
  • Removing sagging and excess skin from the abdomen.
  • Repairing separated abdominal muscles.
  • Reducing stubborn fat pockets.

Who is a Good Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?

Patients who are unhappy with the changes that pregnancy has caused in their body who wish to achieve a more youthful look can often benefit from a mommy makeover. Women who are fully recovered from childbirth who are finished breastfeeding and are finished having children are ideal candidates. A consultation with one of our plastic surgeons is needed to best determine if this procedure is a good fit for you.

Mommy Makeover Procedure

The mommy makeover procedure is a highly personalized one meant to address each individual patient’s aesthetic concerns. Because of this, no two mommy makeovers will look exactly the same. Multiple procedures can be performed during one single surgery, allowing women to improve multiple areas at once. These procedures may include:

Breast Augmentation

Involves enhancing the breasts using silicone or saline breast implants for more balanced overall body proportions.

Breast Lift

Is done to lift sagging breasts to a more youthful position for a more perky appearance.

Tummy Tuck

Eliminated excess fat and sagging skin from the abdomen for a slimmer abdominal profile.

Liposuction

Removes excess, stubborn pockets of fat from various areas of the body for a slimmer, more balanced appearance.

Labiaplasty

A procedure that alters the labia minora and majora to improve comfort and aesthetic appearance.

They are the most compassionate and empathetic doctors I have ever met.”

Mommy Makeover Recovery

Because mommy makeovers are highly personalized, surgery recovery time may vary. Most surgical procedures require patients to avoid lifting for 4-6 weeks after surgery, so if you require child care, it is best to schedule that before your procedure. Your plastic surgeon will provide you with instructions on how to best care for yourself during recovery, and how to properly take any medications that are prescribed to you. Do not hesitate to contact our office if you have any questions or concerns post-surgery.

Mommy Makeover FAQs

Are Mommy Makeovers dangerous?

Your reasons and decision to have a mommy makeover is tremendously personal. Every surgery has risks and a mommy makeover is no exception. The key part is to compare the risks and benefits. We will help you understand the procedure and potential complications and explain what you can expect for a result. Then, together, we can decide through a shared decision-making process whether this is the right operation for you.

Can a tummy tuck be considered medically necessary?

A tummy tuck or abdominoplasty is a surgery designed to flatten the abdomen by removing extra skin and fat and to tighten the abdominal wall (six pack) muscles. Despite some added medical benefits of potentially reducing stress incontinence, decreasing back pain and improving posture, abdominoplasty is always considered cosmetic.

How long does it take to recover from a mommy makeover?

We use enhanced recovery and Exparel, a long-lasting local anesthetic, to boost the recovery, minimize discomfort and have you back to normal much quicker than you might expect. You will be up and walking the same day and, depending on your job, you may be back to work in a week or two. Bruising and swelling may persist for 2-3 weeks. While light walking and lifting may be resumed fairly quickly after surgery, you cannot return to a regular workout routine for 6 weeks.

What is all included in a Mommy Makeover?

The mommy makeover is one of todays most popular operations custom designed to address the issues you face having been through pregnancy and breastfeeding. There are no set components as it is tailored to fit your individual needs and desires. The most common areas are the breasts (with implants to restore volume and a lift to remove the sagging skin) and the abdomen (with a tummy tuck). Other possible surgeries that can be done at the same time include brachioplasty (arm lift), liposuction, and facial rejuvenation.

How much fat can be removed during liposuction?

Liposuction is a procedure that we do just about every day and you will be amazed at how much fat can be permanently removed. The maximum amount of fat that can safely be removed in an outpatient surgery is 6 to 8 pounds (3-4 liters). If you require more than that, it is safest to either divide the liposuction into separate procedures or stay overnight after surgery.

How many plastic surgeries can be done at once?

It is not so much the number of surgeries as it is the length of surgery. For an outpatient surgery, we typically limit it to 4 or 5 hours. For longer surgeries, we will either have you stay overnight at the hospital or have a nurse go home with you (one on one care) so that we can ensure your safety.

How much did you pay for your mommy makeover?

There are no set components as it is tailored to fit your individual needs and desires. The most common areas are the breasts and the abdomen and together cost around $20,000 (Our prices are all inclusive: the consult, all pre-operative visits, the surgery, anesthesia and surgery center, as well as all post-operative visits and garments). Other possible surgeries that can be done at the same time include arms, thighs, labia and facial rejuventation. Each patient is unique as is each surgery performed and the cost. Please call us or click here to contact us regarding a private consultation with one of our board-certified plastic surgeons. We pride ourselves on a patient-centric approach to serving you and look forward to meeting you soon.

Do you lose weight after a mommy makeover?

Yes, you lose weight after surgery. Not initially, as fluid retention, swelling, inflammation, stress and limitation of activities can lead you to gain a few pounds in the first week. You can minimize this by drinking plenty of water, eating well (high fiber, whole grains and fresh fruit while minimizing comfort foods) and walking short distances. But eventually, you will see a drop on the scales. For some, its a few pounds from the extra skin and fat removed from the tummy tuck. For others, it may be as much as 15-20 pounds if liposuction is done.
