What Plastic Surgery Procedures make up a Mommy Makeover?

Mommy Makeover Surgery Procedures

A mommy makeover is one of the most comprehensive cosmetic surgery procedures for women who want to restore their pre-pregnancy figure. It usually combines multiple aesthetic procedures to achieve an enhanced physical appearance in several areas of the body. During the initial consultation, the surgeon will discuss various procedures that may be included as a part of a mommy makeover.
Based on the patient’s personal aesthetic goals and her anatomical needs, the surgeon will create a customized mommy makeover surgery plan. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Thomas Fiala provides mommy makeover to patients in Orlando, Altamonte Springs, FL, and surrounding communities.

Key Procedures

Some of the major procedures that are typically included in a mommy makeover plastic surgery are described as below:
Breast Augmentation
If the woman’s breasts have deflated or lost volume following a pregnancy and breastfeeding, she may require breast augmentation as part of a mommy makeover. This will involve surgical insertion of saline or silicone implants to increase the size of the breasts as desired.
Breast Lift
If the pregnancy and breastfeeding has resulted in overstretching of the breast skin and consequent sagging of breasts, the surgeon may recommend breast lift. The procedure will involve excision of loose skin from the breasts to restore tighter and perkier breasts.
Breast Reduction
In some cases, the woman may develop oversized breasts following pregnancy and breastfeeding. To make the breasts proportionate to the rest of the body, breast reduction cosmetic surgery may be performed as part of mommy makeover.
Liposuction
Liposuction is one of the common body contouring procedures that is included in mommy makeover. The procedure is designed to reduce excess fat tissue from specific fat pockets in the hips, thighs, abdomen, flanks, upper arms, breasts, or other areas.
Tummy Tuck
The abdomen will typically take the maximum toll in a pregnancy. A woman may choose tummy tuck surgery as a part of mommy makeover to restore tighter, firmer and flatter abdomen. Stretch marks may also be reduced in some cases when tummy tuck is performed.
Body Lift
Lower body lift surgery can be performed to tighten loose skin in areas such as the buttocks and thighs. Thigh lift and Brazilian butt lift are two of the popular procedures that may be performed as part of a mommy makeover surgery.
Non-Surgical Procedures   
The surgeon may sometimes recommend a combination of plastic surgery and non-surgical aesthetic procedures. Laser, RF, or ultrasound based treatments are more popular because these can produce desirable results in a less invasive manner.
Cellulite reduction may also be performed as part of mommy makeover using non-invasive techniques. Dr. Fiala is a profound plastic surgeon receiving patients from Orlando, Altamonte Springs, FL, and nearby areas for mommy makeover surgery.

Recovery

Recovery period after a mommy makeover surgery will depend on the number of procedures and the extent of surgery performed. Most women will go through a downtime of one to two weeks, after which they can resume normal activity. Strenuous exercises should be avoided for at least one month.
