Mommy makeover
Every woman has different motivation different goals and different anatomy; therefore each mommy makeover is unique and costumized to benefit each individual woman’s needs.

Mommy makeover is for pesonal reasons
Like all plastic surgery, my patients who have the mommy makeover do it for personal reasons and not to please someone else, which would be a poor reason. They may say things like "I just want my old body back" or "now it's time to do something for me." Often their husbands will say "I love her the way she is" but that she wants to do it so they support her. If you do get up the courage, you will find what most mommy makeover patients do, which is that...

Most my patients choose the mommy makeover because they are unhappy with the changes pregnancy has had on their body. They desire their pre-pregnancy body back. In addition, my patients feel that they have given so much of themselves to their children and loved ones, that they want to do something for themselves to improve their self esteem and confidence.
