What Is Mommy Makeover Surgery?

The purpose of a mommy makeover is to rejuvenate your body contour, giving it a more lifted and youthful appearance. This can involve various procedures such as removing excess skin, eliminating unwanted fat, augmenting breast volume with implants, and addressing volume loss with fat grafting. However, it’s important to note that not all patients require or are suitable for a combination of procedures.

Are You a Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?

To be an ideal candidate for this surgery, Dr Schulman recommends that you wait at least 9 months after giving birth and at least 3 months after stopping breastfeeding. This gives your body the time it needs to naturally recover from the changes it goes through during these important stages.

Furthermore, it’s crucial for all candidates for a mommy makeover in to be in good overall health. A healthy and strong body will ensure a smooth and successful procedure, a healthy recovery process, and optimal results.

Lastly, Dr. Schulman advises against planning another pregnancy after undergoing this procedure. It’s not because it’s dangerous, but rather because subsequent pregnancies may affect the results of the surgery.

What Is A Mini Mommy Makeover?

A mini mommy makeover generally refers to a mommy makeover that doesn’t involve such invasive surgeries as are typical with full mommy makeovers.
For example, in place of a full tummy tuck, a mini mommy makeover might include a mini tummy tuck (concentrating on skin removal below the navel only).

Likewise, a mini mommy makeover may include only a “mini breast lift”. While most traditional breast lifts will involve a circular incision around each areola as well as a vertical incision down the lower half of each breast, a mini lift may only require an incision around each areola.

Essentially, a mini makeover can address common cosmetic issues caused by pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding — but isn’t as invasive or involved as regular mommy makeovers.

Real Patient Testimonial

Real Mommy Makeover Testimonial

Believe me, I searched a lot and read about all your work, reviews, related deaths (none), and almost a background check (kinda creepy, I know). Knowing the risk of the procedures, I had to learn a lot about the surgery itself and most importantly, who would be performing it! No regrets…Thanks for changing my life!

Mommy Makeover Recovery

Following your surgical procedure, your incisions will be carefully covered with either gauze or bandages. To help reduce swelling and offer additional support, your breasts may be wrapped with an elastic bandage or support bra, while your abdomen, waist, and buttocks may be fitted with a compression garment.

Dr. Schulman will provide you with specific instructions for post-operative care, which may include:

  • Guidance on how to care for your surgical site(s) to promote healing and reduce the risk of infection.
  • Medications to apply topically or taken orally to aid in healing.
  • Information on what to look for in terms of concerns related to your surgical site or general health.
  • Guidance on when to follow up with your plastic surgeon.

During your recovery period, it’s important to ask Dr. Schulman questions about what to expect.
Some questions you may want to ask include:

Where will you be taken after your surgery is complete?
What medications will you be given or prescribed after surgery?
Will you have dressings/bandages after surgery, and when will they be removed?
Will drains be used, and if so, for how long?
When can you bathe or shower?
When can you resume normal activities and exercise?
When do you need to return for follow-up care?

As your body heals, the swelling will gradually subside over the course of several weeks. To ensure the best possible recovery, it’s crucial to carefully adhere to Dr. Schulman’s instructions and attend all scheduled follow-up appointments.

Questions and Answers 

The majority of mommy makeover procedures cost between $20,000 and $30,000.

Generally speaking, patients should be close to their healthy goal weight or slightly over before undergoing this surgery.

There is no strict age limit for this procedure, but the majority of mommy makeover patients are in their 30s or 40s. What’s most important is your overall health and you are done having kids.

A mommy makeover can help you look slimmer, but it is not a weight loss procedure. Any actual weight you lose would be via fat loss with liposuction or skin loss (which has some weight) with tummy tuck surgery or a breast lift. This will usually be equal to between five and ten pounds.

Yes, as long as a woman is in good health and cleared for surgery by Dr. Schulman, plus size individuals may undergo this surgery. A plus size mommy makeover addresses common issues typically associated with being overweight or plus size after pregnancy. As with other mommy makeovers, the procedure can include a tummy tuck, liposuction, breast surgery, etc.

A tummy tuck is often part of a mommy makeover procedure. It is the physical removal of excess loose skin on the abdomen. The abdominal muscles are also tightened, and liposuction is often performed to get rid of stubborn fat pockets.

It’s most important for patients to be in good physical health prior to mommy makeover surgery. Sometimes, a patient’s weight plays a part in this, so it’s important to meet one-on-one with Dr. Schulman for a physical exam prior to moving forward with this surgery.

An hourglass mommy makeover is a procedure that helps women regain their pre-pregnancy body — with a specific emphasis on improving the shape of the buttocks, and hips. This is generally achieved by including a Brazilian butt lift (BBL) procedure, wherein unwanted fat is liposuctioned out of problem areas (especially the abdomen) and reinjected into the hips and buttocks to create an hourglass shape.
