Mommy Makeover

For women who have trouble bouncing back to their pre-pregnancy figure, a mommy makeover could be just the thing to get them back in their favorite clothes. If you are struggling to drop the baby weight and want your breasts to be back where they were before breastfeeding, this combination of procedures is designed to help you. Dieting and exercise are not always enough for some new mothers.

To be considered a good candidate for a mommy makeover, the patient must be at a stable, healthy weight, a non-smoker, and in good overall health. Women who have not yet fully recovered from childbirth, women who are still breastfeeding, and women who plan to be pregnant again, especially if they plan to do this within a year, should not consider having this surgery. It is also important to remember that realistic expectations are an important part of a successful cosmetic surgery procedure.

Rather than just one procedure, this is actually a combination of several possible procedures, including a tummy tuck, breast implants or breast lift, liposuction, or other surgery that targets the areas of the body affected by pregnancy. The reason for this combination of surgeries is so that the patient only has to be put under anesthesia once and has only one downtime period for recovery. The patient also saves money by having all the procedures done at once compared to having them consecutively.

When you are ready to restore your body to its pre-pregnancy condition, a mommy makeover could be the best option for you. To find out if this could help you or if you are a good candidate, consult with an experienced plastic surgeon.

  • "Painless Breast Augmentation" - Fact or Fiction

    There seems to be a lot of attention recently about pain-free cosmetic procedures and especially breast augmentation. Most of this surrounds a new promising long-term local numbing medicine that has far-reaching implications. This local numbing medicine, specifically studied with breast augmentation, showed good results with little to no complications. This is potentially exciting to aesthetic patients who often fear discomfort associated with various cosmetic procedures. Often this is the only reason they do not proceed with their desires. However, there has been no study showing that any method of breast augmentation or use of special medicines has led to consistent “painless breast augmentations”.
