Mommy Makeover at a Glance
-
Overview
A mommy makeover is a highly customized combination of surgical procedures designed to address the physical changes that occur after pregnancy and childbirth. It typically includes a tummy tuck to flatten the abdomen and a breast procedure — a lift, augmentation, or both — to restore a more youthful contour.
-
Recovery
As a combination procedure, recovery is more involved than a single surgery. Expect a few weeks of limited activity and a gradual return to your normal routine over several months as swelling subsides and the body heals.
-
Results
Results are immediate and transformative. The procedure provides a more toned abdomen, a youthful breast contour, and an overall more defined silhouette — restoring a body that reflects the work you've already put in.

Is a Mommy Makeover the Right Choice for You?
You are an excellent candidate for a mommy makeover if you are finished with childbearing and are bothered by the physical changes pregnancy left behind — loose, sagging abdominal skin, separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), and breasts that have lost volume or sag. It is important to be at a stable weight and in good overall health before undergoing this procedure.
A mommy makeover is a life-changing solution for women who have worked hard to lose their pregnancy weight but are left with a body contour that doesn't reflect that effort.
- A flatter, firmer, and more toned abdomen.
- A more youthful and lifted breast contour.
- Restored breast volume and a more defined cleavage.
- A more defined waistline.
- A significant boost in self-confidence.

The Surgical Process
A mommy makeover is a highly customized surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia. The surgeon performs a combination of procedures tailored to your specific needs. This typically includes a tummy tuck to repair stretched abdominal muscles and remove excess skin, paired with a breast procedure to restore volume, lift the breasts, or both. The entire process is designed to be as safe and efficient as possible, providing a comprehensive solution in a single surgical session.
A Holistic Approach to Post-Pregnancy Confidence
The physical changes that occur after pregnancy can be a source of significant frustration for many women. A mommy makeover is a holistic approach to body contouring that addresses what diet and exercise alone cannot — particularly diastasis recti, the separation of the abdominal muscles that nearly always accompanies pregnancy. Our surgeons will work with you to create a personalized plan that addresses all of your concerns and helps you reclaim your body.
Surgeon's Notes
Why we combine procedures in one recovery
Some practices split a mommy makeover into two or three separate surgeries spread across a year. We typically don't — and the reason matters. A patient who's already taken time off work and arranged childcare for one surgery has a much harder time doing it three times. By combining the tummy tuck and breast work in a single, well-planned operation, we ask for one recovery instead of three. The trade-off is that the combined surgery is longer (typically 4–6 hours) and the early recovery is more involved. We have a careful conversation in consultation about whether you have the support at home — partner, family, paid help — to manage that first week. With the right support, the combined approach is significantly easier on a patient's life overall.

Mommy Makeover Recovery & Results Timeline
Please remember this is just a guide for Mommy Makeover recovery. Every individual and recovery is unique. Your surgeon will provide you with personalized instructions and recovery times after your procedure.
Day 1 – 3
You will experience pain, swelling, and bruising. You will have drains in place and a compression garment to aid in healing. Mobility will be limited.
1 – 2 Weeks
The drains will be removed, and you can return to light, non-strenuous activities. The majority of swelling and bruising will have subsided.
4 – 6 Weeks
The remaining swelling will continue to resolve. You can gradually return to a full exercise routine, but avoid heavy lifting.
6 Months – 1 Year
All residual swelling will have completely resolved, and the final results of your mommy makeover will be fully apparent and stable.
