Which Areas Can Be Treated with Mommy Makeover Surgery?

The Mommy Makeover is a comprehensive cosmetic procedure designed to help mothers restore their pre-pregnancy bodies and regain confidence after childbirth. 06 Dec 2024

A Mommy Makeover is a set of surgeries designed to restore your physique, which may have changed due to childbearing and breastfeeding. Today’s working moms often find it inconvenient to carry the physical changes left by pregnancy and breastfeeding. The hectic lifestyle makes it even more important to restore fitness so that moms can give enough time to their babies—the apple of their eye.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

The effects of pregnancy and lactation-inducing hormones vary significantly across women. Some may develop fat deposits, while others may experience sagging. Stretch marks, changes in breast size, laxity in abdominal muscles, and changes in private parts vary from person to person. A Mommy Makeover is a customized set of surgeries performed based on the mother's specific needs, after the effects of lactation have passed, and once breastfeeding is finished (at least 9 months to 1 year after childbirth).

Which Are the Common Surgeries Done in a Mommy Makeover?

We can categorize the surgeries based on the areas being treated. The choice of surgery depends on the changes the mother has experienced and her specific concerns.

A. Breast Surgeries

  1. Breast Reduction: For women whose breasts remain enlarged even one year after breastfeeding has stopped.

  2. Breast Lift: For sagging breasts, which may cause discomfort like sweat accumulation, rashes, itching, or fungal infections. A breast lift can be done through surgery or with BreastTite (Embrace RF). This non-invasive procedure is ideal for smaller breasts that sag and involve minimal incisions, leaving no visible scars. A traditional breast lift, however, involves surgery, and an imperceptible scar is to be expected.

  3. Breast Augmentation: If the breasts have lost volume or appear deflated, breast implants or fat-based enhancement are options. A combination of implants and fat grafting, known as hybrid augmentation, is often recommended for optimal results. Our plastic surgeon is particularly skilled in this method, which offers the benefits of both fat and implants.

B. Axillary Breast

Many women experience the enlargement of the tail of the breast into the armpit, which can cause discomfort. This condition can be addressed during the breast treatment, as it lies within the same surgical area. Our plastic surgeon has extensive experience in this field and has even written a chapter on the subject.

C. Tummy Tuck and 360° Liposuction

Pregnancy often leads to the separation of core muscles (rectus abdominis) and skin laxity. After delivery, these muscles may not return to their pre-pregnancy state. Many women suffer from excess skin, fat rolls, and stretch marks on the abdomen. The flanks and love handles may become fuller, further impacting fitness and causing discomfort when breathing.

A Tummy Tuck or 360° Liposuction can effectively restore the body to its pre-pregnancy shape, helping moms feel more energetic and active. The stretch marks above the belly button cannot be eliminated with a tummy tuck, but treatments like Morpheus8 and fat grafting can significantly improve their appearance.

D. Liposuction of Arms and Thighs

Liposuction can slim and contour the arms and thighs, reducing issues such as rubbing between the inner thighs, which can cause rashes and irritation. Additionally, liposuction helps restore proper posture of the arms and shoulders.

E. Perineal Surgery

Many women experience vaginal laxity, urinary leakage, or enlargement of the labia. These concerns can be addressed through surgical tightening to improve hygiene and enhance marital satisfaction.

F. Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)

Some women experience deflation of the buttocks, which can be restored with fat harvested during liposuction. This procedure helps to balance the body and enhance overall shape.

Why Opt for a Mommy Makeover?

  1. Customized Approach: Tailored to your specific needs, procedures can be done in a single session if deemed safe, or staged over time.

  2. Restored Fitness: Helps moms regain pre-pregnancy energy levels and physical fitness.

  3. Boosted Confidence: Improves self-esteem and body image, contributing to overall well-being.

  4. Improved Sexual Health: Addresses concerns related to intimacy and comfort.

  5. Enhanced Hygiene: Resolves issues like rashes, excessive sweating, and irritation, allowing for better overall health management.


Who Should You Approach for a Mommy Makeover?

Consult a fully qualified plastic surgeon with expertise in Mommy Makeover procedures. The surgical facility should be well-equipped to handle any risks or complications. Ideally, it should be a nursing home with well-trained staff and state-of-the-art facilities.

If you want to restore your fitness after childbirth and become the best version of yourself for both you and your baby, a Mommy Makeover can be an excellent option.
