Motherhood is one of life’s most fulfilling experiences. However, adjusting to your post-baby body can also be a challenge. If you are feeling uncomfortable in your skin after having a baby, a mommy makeover may be right for you.
Here, we’ll cover everything you need to know about mommy makeovers, including what they include, what results to expect, and why they’re an increasingly popular choice among new moms.
What Is a Mommy Makeover?
Designed to address the physical changes associated with pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, mommy makeovers are anything but one-size-fits-all.
Customized to each patient’s unique preferences, they can include some or all of the following:
- Tummy Tuck
- Breast Augmentation
- Breast Lift
- Liposuction
- Vaginal Rejuvenation Surgery
What Results Can You Expect with a Mommy Makeover?
While results vary depending on a patient’s chosen combination of procedures, a mommy makeover typically yields dramatic results, such as:
- Enhancing and lifting sagging breasts
- Improving breast symmetry
- Eliminating unwanted body fat
- Body shaping and contouring
- Removing stretch marks
- Tightening loose skin
- Firming the abdomen
- Increasing confidence
- Correcting c-section and hernia scars
- Improving the fit of clothing
- Faster recovery times than with separate surgeries
Are You a Good Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?
Mommy makeovers aren’t right for everyone. For starters, it’s best to give yourself time to heal after childbirth before considering a mommy makeover. Additionally, you may want to wait until you are done breastfeeding. And while it’s possible to have multiple procedures done over the course of your life, many women wait until they’re done having children to undergo a mommy makeover.
Many doctors require you to be in good physical health before undergoing a mommy makeover or other elective surgery. This may mean being at or close to your ideal weight, refraining from smoking, and reducing your alcohol intake.
