What is a mommy makeover?

A mommy makeover is a combination of treatments that focus on restoring the shape of a woman’s body after childbirth. Typically a single-stage procedure, a mommy makeover can target multiple areas of concern to help you achieve your desired appearance. Popular benefits of a mommy makeover include:

• Lift sagging breasts
• Reshape and lift the buttocks
• Remove excess fat and skin from the abdomen
• Repair separated abdominal muscles
• Improve asymmetrical breasts

After a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Lonergan at Aesthetic Plastic Surgery of Delaware, he shares how you can enhance your body’s contours and rejuvenate your overall appearance.

Can anybody get a mommy makeover?

Getting a mommy makeover is a personal decision. If you’re unhappy with how your body looks after having a child, you may be a candidate for this combination treatment. You may be a candidate for a mommy makeover if you:

• Are in good overall health
• Are at a healthy weight
• Do not smoke
• Have realistic expectations about your results
• Are not planning to bear any more children 

Dr. Lonergan recommends the appropriate treatments to safely enhance your appearance.

What can a mommy makeover include?

A mommy makeover can include multiple procedures, including:

Breast augmentation

Breast augmentation aims to reshape and/or increase the size of your breasts through implants or fat transfer.

Breast lift

A breast lift, also called mastopexy, removes excess tissue and tightens the remaining tissue to promote a perkier, more youthful appearance. 

Liposuction

Liposuction involves removing unwanted fat through a thin tube called a cannula. This procedure can target fat nearly anywhere on the body, including the abdomen, hips, back, arms, buttocks, and thighs.

Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck)

A tummy tuck aims to remove excess skin on the abdomen, tighten the surrounding tissue, and repair stretched or separated muscles for a firmer and smoother contour.

Vaginal rejuvenation

Vaginal rejuvenation can include several procedures, including labiaplasty and vaginoplasty, to improve the appearance of the vagina, reduce discomfort during intercourse, and enhance sexual satisfaction.

Buttocks augmentation 

Buttocks augmentation, or a Brazilian butt lift (BBL), involves removing fat from one area of your body (abdomen, hips, etc.) and injecting it into your buttocks.

How long it takes to recover from a mommy makeover depends on the procedures included in your individualized plan. To schedule an appointment at Aesthetic Plastic Surgery of Delaware, call the office or book one online today.
