A Mommy Makeover is a combination of cosmetic procedures to address the physical changes that occur after pregnancy and childbirth. Typically, the makeover targets the breasts, abdomen, and legs to help restore your body to its pre-pregnancy shape.
At Dr. James Lee Plastic Surgery, your Mommy Makeover can include the following procedures, depending on your unique needs:
By combining procedures, a Mommy Makeover provides a more efficient recovery process and a cohesive transformation in one surgical session.
On the day of your surgery, Dr. Lee will perform the procedure under general anesthesia. The combination of procedures will depend on your treatment plan, but most Mommy Makeovers include a tummy tuck, breast surgery, and liposuction around the hips and thighs.
The surgery generally lasts between 3.5 to 5 hours, depending on the complexity of your customized treatment. By combining the procedures into a single surgery, Dr. Lee has more flexibility to tailor your procedure to ensure that the results look cohesive and natural.
A Mommy Makeover focuses on the areas most commonly affected by pregnancy, including:
Dr. Lee personalizes every treatment to address your specific concerns and help you achieve the most natural and harmonious results.
Ideal candidates for a Mommy Makeover are women who:
During your consultation, Dr. Lee will evaluate your health, discuss your goals, and create a personalized plan to help you achieve your ideal results.
Recovery time for a Mommy Makeover can vary depending on the procedures performed. Patients generally expect 4 to 6 weeks of recovery, with most returning to work after 2 to 3 weeks. You will be provided with post-operative care instructions and may need to wear compression garments to support your body as it heals. While swelling and discomfort are normal, these symptoms will subside over time. Dr. Lee will schedule follow-up appointments as needed to check in on your progress and ensure your recovery is as comfortable and complete as possible.
The final results of your Mommy Makeover will become visible after the initial swelling decreases. Patients can expect firmer, more contoured bodies, with lifted breasts, a flatter abdomen, and smoother body contours. With a healthy lifestyle and stable weight, your results can last for many years, allowing you to enjoy your rejuvenated figure long-term.
It’s best to wait at least 6 to 12 months after giving birth or finishing breastfeeding to allow your body to stabilize before undergoing surgery.
It’s recommended to wait until you’re done having children, as future pregnancies may reverse the results.
Most patients can return to work after 2 to 3 weeks, with full recovery taking up to 6 weeks.
While scars are inevitable with any surgery, Dr. Lee takes great care to minimize scarring and ensure that incisions are as discreet as possible. Scars will fade over time.
Dr. Lee prioritizes your safety and performs a thorough preoperative evaluation to ensure that you’re a good candidate for surgery.
