Is there such a thing as a grandmother makeover?

Absolutely, a "grandmother makeover" is a term used to describe cosmetic procedures tailored to address the unique aesthetic concerns and desires of older individuals, often grandmothers, who wish to rejuvenate their appearance.

This makeover might involve a combination of procedures designed to address signs of aging, such as sagging skin, wrinkles, volume loss, and other age-related changes. Common procedures included in a grandmother makeover might be:

Facial Rejuvenation: This can include facelifts, neck lifts, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), or non-invasive treatments like injectables (Botox, dermal fillers) to restore volume and reduce wrinkles.

Breast Lift or Augmentation: To address sagging or volume loss in the breasts.

Body Contouring: Procedures like tummy tucks, liposuction, or body lifts to address excess skin or fat deposits.

Skin Treatments: Skin resurfacing procedures such as chemical peels or laser treatments to improve skin texture and tone.

The aim of a grandmother makeover is to help individuals regain confidence, feel rejuvenated, and look as vibrant and youthful as they feel. It's crucial to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in procedures for older individuals. They will assess your concerns, health status, and goals to create a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific needs while ensuring safety and optimal outcomes.

Life is not over at 65, darling!
It sounds like you could benefit from labiaplasty to remove excess skin, and a vaginoplasty to tighten the muscles to enhance life in the bedroom. As for urinary incontinence, you need to see a general practitioner. There are so many over the counter meds you can take for a short period of time that can help with bladder spasms. If you would like to have a virtual or in person consult with me here at Smith Plastic Surgery, feel free to contact my office 702-838-2455

Hi & thanks for your question!As long as your health is stable you can have the surgery. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options. Best wishes!

Yes it seems like you would be a very good candidate for a grandmommy makeover. Depending on your examination sometimes you do need to lose more weight before surgery and I would discuss this specifically with your surgeon. You can get a tummy tuck and breast augmentation/lift at the same time and this is part of what people talk about when they use the term  "mommy makeover". Of course, these procedures can be done separately though the cost is usually more. It is very common for women to want a mommy makeover, especially after having had children. Pregnancy definitely is hard on the abdominal and breast areas and this is a comment complaint among women visiting my office. I would recommend that you see a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area that is a member of both ASPS & ASAPS and performs a lot of mommy makeovers. Good luck with your future surgery!I hope my answer helped you and if it does, please take a moment to up vote this answer on the “respond” button on the top right.  Have a great day.

Dear SLRoeder,
your age is not a contraindication for surgery. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Hi SLRoeder, First of all, do not write yourself off because you are 65! You are still young! With regard to your questions about your sexuality and anatomical issues in the genitourinary arena, you should see your own gynecologist to discuss the urinary issues and lack of sexual enjoyment. A gynecologist or plastic surgeon who specialize in vaginal rejuvenation may be able to help you with the anatomical issues in that area. A labiaplasty can be very helpful with excessive skin in the vaginal area as well, but no one on this site can give you an informative plan without a thorough in person exam and discussion first.The DIVA laser vaginal treatments can help you a great deal with vaginal lubrication and urinary incontinence in certain circumstances, but, again, a visit with the appropriate doctors is necessary before embarking on any treatments.  Do not give up on a healthy sexual life. I would suggest that you see both a Board certified plastic surgeon and gynecologist who can help you with these issues. They are common as we women age, but they are problems that can be helped!Good luck!Best,Dr. Christine Rodgers

Dear SLRoeder,Thank you for your question. Age is less important in plastic surgery than overall health. If you are 65 years old and in good health, there should be many options for you. Keep in mind you incontinence symptoms are a different issue and will not be improved by any standard cosmetic procedure.Good luck,Nirmal R. Nathan, M.D.

Common procedures that might be considered include:1. Facial Rejuvenation: This may involve procedures such as facelifts, neck lifts, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), or non-surgical treatments like dermal fillers and Botox to address signs of aging on the face.2. Breast Procedures: Depending on the individual's preferences, procedures like breast lift, breast augmentation, or breast reduction could be considered to enhance or restore the appearance of the breasts.3. Body Contouring: Procedures such as tummy tucks (abdominoplasty), liposuction, or body lifts may be included to address concerns about excess skin, sagging, or stubborn areas of fat.4. Skin Treatments: Non-surgical treatments like chemical peels, laser resurfacing, or other skin rejuvenation procedures can be part of the overall plan to improve skin texture and tone.5.

Always choose an experienced surgeon who understands the unique needs of individuals in the grandmother stage of life.

Hello and thank you for your question . You definitely can have a make over if your over all health is good. A tummy tuck will help with reducing the camel toe appearance, and as far as your bladder, a urologist can help with that !
