Mommy makeover

A mommy makeover is a personalized aesthetic surgery designed to restore body contours after pregnancy and childbirth. Each case is different, and the exact combination of procedures is decided during consultation with a surgeon. The most common approach combines a breast lift with or without implants and a tummy tuck, sometimes complemented by liposuction for refined results.

Preparation: Prior to surgery, patients attend a pre-assessment appointment to review overall health and discuss medications or lifestyle factors that may affect recovery. Surgeons outline the suitable combination of procedures based on individual goals. Patients are usually instructed to follow fasting rules before general anesthesia and to arrange help at home and transportation after discharge.

Procedure: A mommy makeover is typically performed under general anesthesia. It often includes breast surgery to restore volume and shape, along with a tummy tuck to remove excess skin and tighten abdominal muscles. The surgery usually takes between three to six hours, depending on the scope of procedures involved.

Recovery: After surgery, patients can expect swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated areas, which usually improve within a few weeks. Wearing compression garments and following the surgeon’s aftercare advice are essential. Most patients gradually resume light daily activities after two weeks, while full recovery and return to normal routines generally take four to six weeks.
