Mommy Makeover is a term to describe a set of procedures to help women restore and refresh their look after childbirth and breastfeeding. Common procedures performed as part of a Mommy Makeover are tummy tucks, liposuction, breast augmentation, and breast lifts. Each situation is unique and the procedures will be customized to you and your surgical goals. Visit with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.
I wouldn’t combine those procedures. That is not a Mommy Makeover, an artificial cage term. The most commonly associated procedures are Breast augmentation or lift, and some combination of Liposuction, Tummy Tuck and BBL. Arm o thigh lift should be reserved for separate procedures. Safety first.
A Mommy Makeover includes whatever YOU want it to include! The beauty of a Mommy Makeover is that it is customized to each individual patient, so that her specific concerns and trouble areas are addressed. I tell my patients there is no exact formula to my Mommy Makeover procedures. So if you want yours to include liposuction of the thighs and arms, then you absolutely can. I recommend consulting in person with a board certified plastic surgeon to confirm you are a candidate for these procedures. Best of luck!
I appreciate your question. Yes it can. A mommy makeover refers to multiple variants of combined procedures such as Breast augmentation/lift, Tummy Tuck, Liposuction and BBL.The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck! Dr. Schwartz Board Certified Plastic Surgeon #RealSelf100Surgeon
The Mommy Makeover is a combination of procedures to bring a woman’s body back to the way she looked prior to pregnancy. Most commonly some variation of a #TummyTuck and #BreastSurgery are performed. Additional procedures can include liposuction, umbilical hernia repair. The most common #breastprocedures include #mastopexy or #breastlift, #breastaugmentation, or #breastreduction. Healing after a #tummytuck will require time. Some patients are out of bed and walking the night of surgery and every hour while awake. I allow my patients to return to work at one to two weeks with 14 days preferred. However, no lifting or straining. At three weeks, increased level of activity and full with no restrictions, at 6 weeks. #MummyTummy is a term given to modified tummy tucks which can use liposuction and skin tightening with radiofrequency such Vanquish, Vela3, thermage, thermiRF and others. The actual fat contouring can be done non-surgically as well with #UltraShape or Cool-Sculpting.The costs of a #Mommy Makeover will depend on several factors. Such include the geographic location, the skill and experience of the surgeon, and operating room and anesthesia fees. Also, such #combined operations are often performed with our Gynecology colleagues. Tubal ligation is a common post pregnancy procedure which is done at the time of many of the surgeries included with Mommy Makeovers. Therefore, if you require a gynecologic operation or study (laparoscopy) and are considering a plastic surgery procedure, discuss these issues with your doctor. If your surgeon feels you are a candidate, it may be possible to add additional procedures such as those you mention. #Combining these procedures decreases anesthetics, costs, and recovery time. Most importantly, your procedures should be performed by a #PlasticSurgeon who is board-certified and has a great deal of experience specializing in cosmetic #surgery. You will then greatly improve your chances of getting the result you desire, and, without the need for a revision surgery. It is suggested that you look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients, and read patient reviews. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision.
