Very few experiences in life can match the rewards or the hard work associated with motherhood. Raising children requires a constant sacrifice where you place their needs in front of yours. Often, these sacrifices include important things such as sleep, exercise, and nutrition. While these efforts are often worth it, they nevertheless can take their toll on your body.
The rigors of motherhood, along with the impact on your body caused by pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, can result in changes to your appearance over time. In many instances, it can be difficult to find the time and energy to regain the figure you enjoyed before having children. If you have been having trouble restoring your post-pregnancy body to its pre-pregnancy shape, then a mommy makeover may be right for you.

Why Choose a Mommy Makeover?

The term “mommy makeover” refers to a customizable combination of breast surgery and body contouring procedures that are performed to reverse the unwanted effects of pregnancy, childbirth, aging, and the sacrifices made as a part of motherhood.

It is common for the abdominal muscles to become stretched during pregnancy, making it difficult to maintain strength and a toned, flat stomach. In addition, you may find that it is difficult to lose weight gained during pregnancy, even with a diligent diet and exercise routine. Breastfeeding can also impact your body, causing breasts that were once perky to start sagging prematurely. A mommy makeover can correct these individual areas with one surgical procedure, reducing the amount of downtime required.

What Procedures Are Involved In A Mommy Makeover

Am I a Good Candidate?

In order to be considered a good mommy makeover candidate, you should be fully recovered from childbirth and finished with breast feeding. For the best results, you should also be close to your ideal body weight.

If you are planning on having more children, you should consider postponing your procedure since future pregnancies can have an adverse impact on your results. For this reason, Dr. Ali Mosharrafa and Dr. Tamir Mosharrafa only recommend mommy makeover surgery for women who have completed this phase of their lives. The board-certified surgeons at Mosharrafa Plastic Surgery can recommend non-surgical options if you are between children or think you might change your mind in the future.

Dr. Tamir listened to my dreams and expectations for my mommy makeover. He told me what was possible with least amount of incisions. He was able to provide me with fullness in my breasts without having to do a breastlift. He removed all excess skin and the incision sites look amazing and are healing well. I am extremely satisfied with my results. Thank you Dr. Tamir and all the staff at Mosharrafa Plastic Surgery Center.

Your Customized Mommy Makeover Procedure

Each patient considering a mommy makeover procedure will have different goals and different conditions. This is why mommy makeovers are personalized to the patient, rather than a pre-determined plastic surgery technique. Your customized mommy makeover Phoenix can address your unique concern areas. The following are some common problem areas that can be addressed during your mommy makeover.

Breasts

The breasts experience rapid change during pregnancy and postpartum, and can become enlarged, smaller, or deflated. In each case, many women opt for a breast lift, either with the addition of breast augmentation or by itself. For women whose breasts become enlarged post pregnancy, a breast reduction can help reduce discomfort along with a breast lift.

Body

The tummy tuck is a staple of the mommy makeover because it can tighten skin and muscles that become stretched and loose during pregnancy. Tummy tuck surgery is the most effective solution for excess skin, which non-surgical plastic surgery procedures cannot address.

Additionally, many patients opt for liposuction to reduce stubborn fatty deposits unaffected by diet and exercise in areas like the hips or thighs. Targeted procedures like the arm lift or thigh lift can also restore the body where fat accumulates during pregnancy, or excess skin develops from sudden weight loss. Finally, many women find feminine rejuvenation procedures like labiaplasty or non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation to be an important part of their mommy makeover.

Mommy Makeover Recovery

A mommy makeover comes with some of the most extensive recovery periods of any plastic surgery procedure, and board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ali Mosharrafa or Dr. Tamir Mosharrafa will ensure you have detailed instructions to follow in between your follow-up appointments.
It can take a few months before you begin to see your final results emerge as the swelling goes down and your new contours continue to refine. Plan on taking two or more weeks off work and/or social engagements to recover, as well as ensuring you have help with childcare during your initial recovery.
Although this cosmetic surgery can’t prevent the future effects of aging on the body, it is highly effective at toning, shaping, and restoring a youthful form for patients. To maintain the benefits of a mommy makeover, keep a healthy diet and exercise routine and protect skin from harmful UV damage by using sunscreen when outside for extended periods of time.

Why Choose Mosharrafa Plastic Surgery For Mommy Makeover?

Board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. Ali Mosharrafa and Dr. Tamir Mosharrafa have extensive experience when it comes to helping mothers recover their ideal figure after childbearing. To begin planning your customized mommy makeover surgery, contact Mosharrafa Plastic Surgery using our online form or call 602-975-2048 to schedule a consultation for your personalized mommy makeover surgery. We serve patients in Phoenix, Paradise Valley, and Scottsdale, AZ. We excel at caring for patients who travel from out of the area as well.
Typical recovery back to normal activities following a mommy makeover is approximately 6 weeks.
Some of the procedures that are usually included in a mommy makeover include breast lift, breast augmentation, tummy tuck, liposuction, and labiaplasty.
No. There is a procedure called a panniculectomy that may be covered by insurance. Unlike a tummy tuck, which tightens the abdominal muscles to improve the contour of the abdomen, a panniculectomy only removes skin, without correcting muscle laxity.
The safe performance of multiple surgeries at once is based on time. We like to keep total surgery time under 6 hours for combined procedures. If the total surgery required to achieve all your goals would take more than 6 hours, then it may be broken down into 2 or more procedures.
The cost of a mommy makeover differs greatly for each person. It depends on what you’re including in the combination procedure. At Mosharrafa Plastic Surgery, we offer financing options to ensure more patients can benefit from this life-changing treatment.
Typically, a mommy makeover procedure can include some combination of breast and abdominal procedures. Common breast procedures include breast augmentation, breast lift, or breast reduction. Common abdominal procedures include abdominoplasty, liposuction, or BodyTite. Additionally, some patients may choose to add other procedures, such as nipple reduction or labiaplasty.
No. Surgery to improve changes that occur following pregnancy are safe when performed by a qualified board certified plastic surgeon.
Yes, but generally not much weight is lost. The weight of the skin and fat removed may be partially offset by the use of breast implants.
It depends on the nature of the procedure. The term “mommy makeover” refers to a combination of procedures that address changes that occur to a woman’s body following pregnancy. It frequently involves breast enhancement (reduction, lift, implants) as well as body contouring (tummy tuck, body lift, liposuction). The cost depends on which combination of these procedures best addresses her individual needs.
4 – 6 L of fat can safely be removed during a single session of liposuction. Large volume liposuction may require an overnight stay.
There are a few important factors in preparing for a mommy makeover. It is best to be sure you are finished having children. It is also important that your weight is stable and at your goal.
Yes! Mommy makeovers are customizable to fit specific body contouring goals. A mommy makeover is flexible and will provide you with a specific plan to achieve your desired body after children, major weight loss, or any other lifestyle change.
We typically recommend women wait six months to a year after childbirth before undergoing a mommy makeover.
While breast surgery included in a mommy makeover may affect your ability to breastfeed, it’s recommended you be done with breastfeeding before you have a mommy makeover. This ensures your breasts are back to their normal size so we can accurately determine the right treatment plan for you.
The best candidates for a mommy makeover are women who are done having children and wish to rejuvenate their postpartum bodies. Future pregnancies could possibly cause a recurrence of diastasis recti or loose skin, negating the effects of cosmetic surgery. However, it is important to note this is only a possibility, not a certainty. Because this is an investment for many patients, we encourage women to wait until they are done having children.
A mommy makeover is a combination of cosmetic procedures done in one surgical session to restore the shape and look of the body after pregnancy. Many women notice changes to their bodies after childbirth, and mommy makeover can address those changes all at once.
Those who are good candidates for a mommy makeover are fully recovered from childbirth and have finished breastfeeding. You should also be close to your ideal weight, be in good overall health, and have no medical conditions that affect the healing process.
How long a mommy makeover takes usually depends on the procedures you’re getting, but typically, it takes around 3-5 hours.
Dr. Ali Mosharrafa and Dr. Tamir Mosharrafa will provide detailed instructions that you’ll want to follow to ensure proper healing. It will take a few months to see full results as swelling and bruising diminish. You’ll need to take at least two weeks off work to recover and you’ll want help with childcare. To maintain your results, a healthy diet and exercise routine is recommended.
Some of the risks and complications with a mommy makeover include bleeding, infection, loss of nipple sensation, unfavorable scarring, and asymmetry. Dr. Ali and Dr. Tamir will discuss all the possible risks and complications with you during your consultation.
