What is a Mommy Makeover?

During pregnancy and breastfeeding, your breasts and abdomen stretch, often leading to permanent skin changes resulting in sagging and loose skin. While this is a natural and normal part of having children, there are many options to improve your appearance. You deserve to look and feel your best. A Mommy Makeover may help boost self-confidence by restoring a taut, youthful figure after having children. A Mommy Makeover combines procedures tailored to suit your unique needs and goals.

A Mommy Makeover may include a combination of the following:

  • Breast lift
  • Breast augmentation
  • Tummy Tuck/Abdominoplasty 
  • Labiaplasty
  • Liposuction

Are You a Candidate for a Custom Mommy Makeover?

As a Mommy Makeover is a highly individualized procedure, this will depend on your unique circumstances. If you are finished with having children and are in good health and at a healthy weight, it may be a suitable time for your Mommy Makeover. During your initial consultation, you and Dr. Cohen will review your medical history, goals, and expectations to ensure your surgery achieves what you envision for your body. 

What is the Surgery Itself?

A Mommy Makeover is usually performed as a single operation. In some cases, depending on the details of your surgery, it may be performed in two stages. You will go over the details of your surgery in depth with Dr. Cohen during your pre-op consultations. You will most likely be under general anesthesia, and the surgery may take between three and five hours. You can go home on the same day as your surgery.

  • Breast Lift: Elevates and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue, resulting in a more youthful and uplifted breast contour.
  • Breast Augmentation: Enhances breast size and fullness using implants or fat transfer, providing a fuller, more balanced appearance to the breasts.
  • Tummy Tuck: Removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening the underlying muscles, creating a firmer and flatter midsection.
  • Labiaplasty: Reshapes and reduces the size of the labia for improved comfort and aesthetics, addressing concerns related to excess tissue or asymmetry.
  • Liposuction: Removes stubborn fat deposits from various body areas, such as the abdomen, thighs, and flanks, to create a more contoured and defined silhouette.

What is the Recovery Time After a Mommy Makeover?

Your recovery will depend mainly on which procedures are included in your Mommy Makeover. Combining several procedures will shorten the recovery period compared to having each procedure done separately. You should be able to return to work after several weeks of recovery, generally two to three. The tissues and skin need time to knit together; a full recovery may take four to six weeks. Some of your results will appear immediately. The results will last many years if you continue to live a healthy lifestyle.
