What Procedures are Included in a Mommy Makeover?

Posted on November 10, 2018 by: Dr. Rocheford

The mommy makeover is becoming one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures today! This is because it is the ultimate procedure designed to specifically address common issues that are faced by women who have experienced pregnancy and breastfeeding.

At Rocheford Plastic Surgery, our all-woman staff understands the changes that pregnancy and breastfeeding can cause in the body and will work with you to create a customized mommy makeover plan to help meet your aesthetic goals.

Procedures Included

The mommy makeover is highly personalized, and there is number of procedures that can be included to help address your individual problem areas. These procedures may include a combination of:

Tummy TuckEliminates excess skin on the lower abdomen, as well as repairs loosened or separated abdominal muscles. This helps to create a flatter tummy.

Breast AugmentationEnlarges the breasts and corrects asymmetrical breasts with the use of breast implants.

Breast LiftLifts sagging or drooping breasts to a more youthful, perkier position.

LiposuctionEliminates stubborn fat deposits almost anywhere on the body. Is often done in conjunction with other procedures to help further improve results.

The mommy makeover is often performed as an outpatient surgery, which will allow you to recover at home. Recovery time may vary, but often takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the specific procedures that were included in your mommy makeover. Swelling may last for six months or longer, so be patient when waiting for full results.

Who is a Candidate?

Women who are having trouble losing those last few pregnancy pounds, have excess abdominal skin, or have experienced a decrease in breast volume may be able to benefit from a mommy makeover. However, the best way to determine if a mommy makeover is right for you is through an in-office consultation.
