What Is a Mommy Makeover?
A mommy makeover is a customized cosmetic procedure that combines multiple surgical and non-surgical treatments to help women restore their pre-pregnancy body shape and confidence. At The One Clinic, our skilled surgeons can address a range of concerns related to pregnancy and childbirth, such as sagging breasts, excess skin and fat, and weakened abdominal muscles.
Our mommy makeover treatment options include:
Breast augmentation or lift: This procedure can enhance the breasts’ size, shape, and position and restore a more youthful contour.
Tummy tuck: This procedure can remove excess skin and fat and tighten the abdominal muscles to improve the overall tone and texture of the midsection.
Liposuction: This procedure can target stubborn pockets of fat in various areas of the body, such as the thighs, hips, or arms, to create a slimmer and more toned appearance.
The mommy makeover can help women feel more confident and comfortable with their bodies after pregnancy and childbirth. It also combines multiple treatments into one procedure, which can save time and recovery compared to undergoing separate procedures.
Best candidates
The best candidates for the mommy makeover treatment are women who have completed their family and wish to address the physical changes that occurred during pregnancy and childbirth.
Recovery
After the mommy makeover treatment, it’s essential to allow the body enough time to heal and recover properly. The recovery period can vary depending on the extent of the procedure and the number of treatments the patient undergoes.
It’s important to avoid challenging activities and heavy lifting for several weeks after the procedure to allow the body to heal. However, most patients can return to work and normal activities within 2-3 weeks, depending on their condition and the extent of the procedure.
