Mommy Makeover is a cosmetic surgery procedure performed to restore the body to its pre-pregnancy beauty. It is a complex surgery customized according to needs and wishes of the patient.
Like all kinds of surgery, mommy makeover requires anesthesia. Because of the fact that surgery will be performed at more than one part of the body at one setting, general anesthesia is typically preferred. Depending on the case and the preference of the surgeon, anesthesia requirements may vary. In either case, you will not feel any pain.
There are multiple variations of mommy makeover procedure, and the details of the surgery depend on the patient’s needs and the surgeon’s approach. Before accepting a patient for a mommy makeover surgery, our contracted surgeons determine the best options for a patient along with the patient’s desires. This surgery is a highly customized procedure. After a meticulous consultation process, the surgeons make their surgical plans in coordination with their patients. What’s suitable for you depends on your anatomical characteristics and your desired goals.
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure involves the placement of breast implants inside the breasts to provide augmentation of volume and projection to your breasts. Through breast augmentation you can have larger, rounder, and fuller breasts.
Breast lift is a surgical procedure performed to raise and shape the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the neighboring supportive tissues. The nipple and areola are relocated to the ideal position. If there is an asymmetry, it is also corrected. In this way, your breasts will be more in shaped and uplifted form.
Breast reduction is performed to remove excess fat, skin, and glandular tissue from the breasts to make them smaller, lighter, perkier and more in proportion with your body.*2 The goal is to achieve youthful and well-shaped breasts and to alleviate the discomfort of large breasts.
Abdominoplasty, also known as Tummy Tuck, is a surgical procedure performed to remove excessive fat and skin in the abdomen, and to tighten muscles in the abdominal wall.*3 After the surgery, a flatter and firmer appearance is achieved. It is an especially excellent treatment for women who had multiple pregnancies.
Liposuction is a surgical procedure involving the suction of excess fat deposits from specific areas of the body. The objective is sculpting the body by removing fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. Many different regions of the body may be targeted for liposuction*4. Through liposuction, you can achieve a leaner and more harmonious appearance.
Mommy makeover is a customized surgery that combines multiple cosmetic procedures in one. Because of that, depending on the included procedures, the complications differ. For more information, you can check the respective pages for their individual complications list. And keep in mind that the more the surgical sites, the more the risk of complications.
After surgery, there might be bandages or dressings to reduce swelling. A small tube can be temporarily placed under the skin to drain excess fluid. Besides, there might be stitches or sutures on your incisions that are not absorbable. These will be removed by your surgeon within the next two or three days after surgery. You may be tender, feel tired and experience moderate pain for several days following the surgery, but this can be managed through pain medication. Most patients are able to return their daily activities within one week but be prepared that your recovery may be longer.
You may need to take 2-3 weeks off work, but it can change from patient to patient. Swelling and bruises will gradually disappear, but it may take a longer time for swelling to subside. It may take 3 to 6 weeks to subside, but you may easily camouflage them with makeup. It is best to avoid tiresome activities for at least two weeks. You should refrain from strenuous exercises, avoid stretching and heavy lifting for at least 6 weeks after the surgery. Your surgeon will follow your recovery and tell you when you are ready. It is very important to follow post-op instructions. Your surgeon will provide customized recovery plan based on your needs and your level of healing.
