What is a mommy makeover?
A Mommy Makeover consists of several surgical procedures designed to restore a woman’s body shape and appearance following pregnancy and childbirth. This transformative treatment targets common post-pregnancy changes in the breasts, abdomen, and buttocks. Often performed as a single-stage procedure, combining multiple surgeries helps reduce the risks associated with repeated operations, such as those linked to general anesthesia.
Pregnancy can lead to issues such as breast sagging, stretched abdominal skin and muscles, and volume loss in the buttocks. A Mommy Makeover addresses these concerns with a range of surgical options, including:
- Tummy Tuck: Repairs abdominal muscles and tightens skin
- Liposuction: Removes excess fat from the stomach area
- Breast Lift: Reduces breast sagging
- Breast Augmentation: Restores lost breast volume
- Buttock Augmentation: Enhances buttock volume
While these procedures are commonly chosen, other options such as a thigh lift, arm lift, or Brazilian butt lift can also be included in a Mommy Makeover at Galardi | Bowen Plastic Surgery.
Am I a candidate?
A Mommy Makeover is ideal for women who have completed their family and are seeking to rejuvenate their body after the physical changes of pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. Candidates for this procedure typically:
- Are in good overall health and at a stable weight
- Have realistic expectations about the outcomes of surgery
- Experience issues such as sagging breasts, excess abdominal skin, and stubborn fat deposits that don’t respond to diet or exercise
- Desire a comprehensive solution to restore their pre-pregnancy physique
- Are finished with childbearing, as future pregnancies may affect the results
If you’re looking to reclaim your confidence and achieve a harmonious, refreshed look, a Mommy Makeover might be the perfect solution for you.
What can I expect during a mommy makeover procedure?
During a Mommy Makeover procedure, you can expect a personalized combination of surgeries tailored to address your unique concerns. This comprehensive approach typically involves multiple procedures performed in one surgical session, such as a tummy tuck to restore a flatter abdomen, breast augmentation or lift to enhance and reshape your breasts, and liposuction to target stubborn fat areas.
The surgery is conducted under general anesthesia, ensuring you’re comfortable throughout. Depending on the complexity and number of procedures, the operation can last several hours. Our skilled team at Galardi | Bowen Plastic Surgery ensures a precise and compassionate approach, aiming to deliver transformative results with a focus on your safety and well-being.
What can I expect from the results?
A key aspect of the Mommy Makeover at Galardi | Bowen Plastic Surgery in Virginia Beach is not just enhancing a woman’s physical appearance but also boosting her confidence and quality of life. Many women find that a Mommy Makeover significantly elevates their self-esteem, which can positively impact various aspects of their lives. Post-pregnancy body changes can sometimes lead to psychological challenges such as depression and a loss of libido, but a Mommy Makeover aims to address and reverse these effects.
Each Mommy Makeover is tailored to meet the individual needs of the patient, allowing women to select the procedures that best address their personal concerns and desires. By transforming areas of their appearance that have previously caused dissatisfaction or insecurity, women can experience renewed self-care and confidence.
Additionally, some patients report enhanced sexual satisfaction from procedures like vaginal rejuvenation, contributing to improved relationships and overall well-being.
What is the recovery time for a mommy makeover?
Postoperative discomfort is expected but is usually well-managed with oral pain medication and tends to diminish after a few days. To help with recovery, drainage tubes may be placed for 4 to 10 days to remove excess blood and fluid. Depending on the procedures performed, you may need to wear a soft bra for breast augmentation or breast lift, and a compression garment for a tummy tuck or Brazilian Butt Lift. The specifics of your post-operative care will be tailored to the procedures you underwent.
While you can return home after surgery, it is recommended to have a responsible adult stay with you for the first 24 hours to assist with your recovery. Swelling typically decreases within the first few weeks, and your provider will schedule regular check-ins to monitor your healing progress. It’s important to avoid strenuous activities for 4-6 weeks. Scarring will naturally fade over the months following your surgery.
