Every mother’s body experiences changes during pregnancy. These changes are natural, but sometimes, those changes to the body don’t completely go away once the baby is born. That’s where the Mommy Makeover steps in. But what exactly is a mommy makeover? Let’s take a look!
A mommy makeover is not a single surgery but a combination of cosmetic procedures designed to restore your body’s appearance after pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. The most common procedures involved in a mommy makeover include breast augmentation, a tummy tuck, and liposuction.
Is a Mommy Makeover Right for You?
If you are in good health, at a stable weight, and have realistic expectations about this surgery, you may be an ideal candidate for a Mommy Makeover. Remember, each patient’s needs are unique; Dr. Willis will create a tailored plan just for you.
Summer Ready With the Mommy Makeover
Summer and swimming suits don’t need to be a source of stress. With a mommy makeover, Dr. Willis will give you back your confidence and help you get ready to hit the beach or pool feeling fantastic!
How long the procedure takes depends on what you’re having done. The more procedures included in your mommy makeover, the more time it will take. The length of your surgery can also depend on how much fat or skin needs to be removed. It can take anywhere from three to five hours.
How Long is the Recovery Process for a Mommy Makeover?
Typically, patients need two to four weeks of downtime, at which point they can usually go back to work, but full recovery and healing can take six months or more. While you’re recovering, you’ll need to limit your activity level, rest as much as possible, and follow Dr. Willis’ aftercare instructions. We will have you come in for follow-up appointments to ensure your healing properly.
