Post-Pregnancy Procedures

Childbirth can not only significantly change our lives, but our bodies, too. The physical stress of growing new life can leave the abdominal muscles and skin loose and cause breasts to look less supple. Many women choose to combat these and more postpartum changes with mommy makeover plastic surgery.
Mommy makeover surgery is actually a term that refers to several aesthetic procedures designed to help restore a mother’s shape, performed in conjunction with one another to cut down on overall recovery time. Frequently, these procedures include tummy tuck surgery and breast augmentation, but mommy makeover surgery may also feature liposuction, a breast lift, a Brazilian butt lift, and other treatments. In Indianapolis, I tailor every mommy makeover surgery to each unique patient so they can achieve their ideal results.

Breast Surgery
••
There are many reasons individuals consider their breast enhancement options. Many simply are dissatisfied with the size and shape of their natural breasts, and are hoping to increase their size or improve their symmetry with breast implants. Others still are displeased with the way their breasts have changed over the years—maybe with shifts in weight or after breastfeeding—and are interested in breast augmentation or a breast lift.
There are also some patients who have gotten breast augmentation surgery elsewhere, are unhappy with the results, and are in search of breast revision surgery.
There are many factors that weigh into selecting the best procedure. At my Indiana practice, I work directly with you, explaining all your breast enhancement options and understanding your aesthetic goals for your breasts, so we can help you achieve the silhouette you deserve.

Abdominoplasty
••
So many women (particularly mothers) and men who have undergone weight loss know the frustration of excess skin in their midsection. I perform tummy tuck surgery, also known as abdominoplasty, for Indianapolis-area patients who want to achieve a flat, contoured, and smooth abdomen.
Undergoing a full tummy tuck entails having excess skin and fat in the abdominal area removed and weak abdominal muscles tightened and repaired. The incision is made just below the bikini line, and the procedure can remove stretch marks on the lower abdomen.
I also perform mini-tummy tucks, which remove excess skin and fat just below your belly button and come with a shorter recovery period. I will review these options with you during your consultation and recommend the best choice for your situation.
My patients find that a contoured midsection improves their overall silhouette, and they report looking and feeling better in their clothes (especially during swimsuit season) after their tummy tuck.

Dr. Turkle and her entire staff have been amazing. She has great bedside manner and actually listens to you and your wants. I had several consultations before my surgery and she was by far the most down to earth and kind surgeon. She made sure I understood everything and knew what to expect. I would highly recommend her for any service.
My tummy tuck went relatively smoothly, although my recovery from the anesthesia was the roughest I've experienced (and I've been through anesthesia for surgery 7 or 8 times before). My scar is at least one inch higher on the left hip vs the right and looks crooked but I'm not too concerned about that. I have a large vertical incision which I understand cannot always be avoided. My belly looks much better after birthing 7 babies (one set of twins, and 5 of which were surrogate

I used realself to find a plastic surgeon near me that was highly rated. The reviews were not wrong, Dr. Turkle does wonderful work. I am so much more confident. The office is lovely, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I had a couple of concerns during recovery and they always fit me the same day to come in to make sure
...read moreI have been wanting to get a reduction since I had my baby boy...who will be 11 in the fall.
I turned 40 in last December and vowed this will be MY YEAR. I am an esthetician and asked my clients for recommendations. I asked 18 people who I've known to have had work done and 16 of them recommended Dr. Janet Turkle. So that was that and I scheduled my consult with the highly recommended doctor.
I had my reduction 4/22/22, and back pain relief was immediate! So far I am beyond pleased
...read moreI simply can't recommend Dr. Turkle highly enough. I was apprehensive about having surgery, but after breastfeeding 3 children, my breasts felt uncomfortable and bothered me daily. From my initial consultation with Dr. Turkle, I was certain that I was in the best hands. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable and experienced, she was very warm and welcomed my many questions and concerns. She was honest and realistic about what to expect and I never felt pressured. Most importantly,

After working hard to reach my health fitness goals Dr. Turkle & staff helped me make the impossible possible. 6.5 lbs of stubborn fat that I could not get rid of is gone. Had a small hiccup in healing from sutures being rejected but Dr & her nurses assured me that I would heal and I have so it’s been worth the wait :) I received a tummy tuck with lipo and 440cc gummy bear implants and it has restored so much confidence

Horrible swelling, intense itching, grid marks, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and face bumps. I’m heartbroken because I went in happy with my skin and just looking for maintenance. Now I look like I have scales. I’m one week out and hoping for improvement. I’ve been told everything will heal in two to three weeks, but no one really

Surgery on 7/10/20 with Dr Turkle, explained procedure what would happen, my expectations and desired outcome. Very pleasant, excellent beside manner and even called evening after procedure to check on me. The staff is amazing also, with timely response to emails and phone calls, they answer all questions, and explain everything.I definitely recommend her.
I've been thinking about breast augmentation on and off for years and finally decided to do it this time. The pandemic might have made me realize that life is too short to not do something I've wanted to do and helped me gain courage to do the procedure. I chose Dr. Turkle because 2 of my friends recommended her, the clinic is not too far from my location and she had great reviews for the most part.
I did the virtual consultation online and got called right away the next day
