Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover is a generic term for a combination of cosmetic surgery techniques aimed at restoring the body’s physical appearance following childbirth. There are no cookie-cutter standards for a mommy makeover, as each procedure is tailored to address each patient’s unique anatomy and desired results. However, the surgical aspect of the procedure generally involves contouring of the breasts and abdomen with additional elements included per request of the patient.
A mommy makeover commonly involves contouring the shape and size of the breasts with either a breast augmentation (augmentation mammoplasty) or breast reduction (reduction mammoplasty). Postpartum changes to a woman’s breasts can lead to breast enlargement, which often results in variable sagging, or breast distortion. These alterations occur in reaction to hormonal changes during pregnancy, which stimulate milk production and breast enlargement. These changes are a sign of a healthy pregnancy because your body is getting ready to provide sustenance for your baby. But once a woman’s lactation period is over and breastfeeding nears its end, the breasts may decrease in size. These sudden and dramatic fluctuations in shape and size can stretch breast tissue and alter the appearance of the breasts. This is one aspect of a post-pregnancy body that some women want corrected by undergoing a breast augmentation, lift or reduction as part of a mommy makeover.
Mommy makeovers are very modifiable procedures that can address the unique needs of each patient. These procedures can also include a thigh lift, arm lift, buttocks lift, circumferential abdominoplasty, and liposuction.
