Why Get a Mommy Makeover Instead of Just Having a Tummy Tuck?

Over the years, there has been an increase in the number of individuals opting for mommy makeovers to help reach their aesthetic goals. This is due to the advantages that this surgery provides. One of the benefits of having a mommy makeover instead of just a tummy tuck is that you combine two or more surgeries into one, so you have just one recovery time. You are only out of work and recovering once instead of two or three times. While a mommy makeover can include whatever procedures you want, the most common are a tummy tuck and breast lift. Some women choose to do liposuction, a tummy tuck, and a breast lift. Others may choose to add breast augmentation to the surgeries.

Candidates for a Mommy Makeover

Most anyone can have a mommy makeover – you do not even have to be a mom! The best candidates will be non-smokers who are at their ideal weight. If you are a mom, it is best that you wait at least six months after giving birth. You should lose all or almost all of the pregnancy weight for the best results.

If you plan on having more children, you should wait for the mommy makeover. The changes to your body during pregnancy can undo the results of your mommy makeover.

During your initial consultation, we discuss your goals and details of the surgeries so you know that you are making the right decision as to which procedures you want.

What You Can Get In a Mommy Makeover

You can choose from several surgeries for your mommy makeover, including:

• Liposuction to remove fat
• Tummy tuck to remove excess skin
• Breast augmentation to increase the size of your breasts
• Breast reduction to reduce the size of your breasts
• Breast lift to reposition your breasts and reduce sagging

A mommy makeover is customized to your goals. Depending on which surgeries you choose, the mommy makeover could last anywhere from two to eight hours.
