What Should I Know About Mommy Makeover Surgery?

Becoming a mother is one of the most amazing things that can happen to a woman. Whether you’ve been trying for years, it happened quickly, or you became a mother through adoption, it is always something to be thankful for and proud of. Aging, pregnancy, and motherhood, in general, can really begin to wreak havoc on a woman’s body. Throw kids in the mix and sometimes self-care isn’t as easily attainable as it once was. Thus begins the journey of your body not really looking like it had in the past. That’s ok! At Iconic Plastic Surgery, we are proud to offer Mommy Makeover surgeries to return your body back to its pre-pregnancy state!

Mommy Makeover is customizable to you, so whether you want to undergo breast augmentation, liposuction, and tummy tuck or a breast lift and labiaplasty, Dr. D’Souza can do it all and help you regain your shape and confidence! There are a few things to know before undergoing Mommy Makeover surgery to help clear (and ease) your mind!

Am I a Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?

Ideal candidates for Mommy Makeover surgery are women who are at or near their goal weight, are done having children, and have realistic expectations about their results. Many patients are unhappy with how they look after pregnancy, and they just want a change. A personal consultation with Dr. D’Souza will help answer any questions you have as well as determine if you are a candidate for a Mommy Makeover.

What Surgeries Are Included?

At Iconic Plastic Surgery, Dr. D’Souza offers a few different surgeries that make up the whole Mommy Makeover procedure. These can be customized to your specific goals and desires to ensure that you receive the best results possible and the outcome you wish to achieve. A Mommy Makeover may consist of:

  • Breast augmentation
  • Breast lift
  • Liposuction
  • Tummy Tuck
  • Labiaplasty

When Should I Have My Mommy Makeover Surgery?

This is sort of a two-part question. The first part is, are you finished having children? This is a big question that needs to be answered before undergoing surgery. Most women who have Mommy Makeover surgery are done having children and are 100 percent ready to get their bodies back. You may still have children after your Mommy Makeover surgery, but the amazing results that you worked hard for may be altered.

The second part of this question is, when does it work best for you? Mommy Makeover is a surgery that can be performed at any time. It would just be best if it worked in your favor schedule-wise. If you know you’re going to have a very busy spring and summer with baseball games, dance classes, and summer vacations, then the fall or winter may be best for your surgery. You can even cover up with big sweatshirts, coats, and scarves if necessary to hide your body until you’re ready to show it off. Or maybe you have a lot of holiday parties and you want to be your best self, then waiting until the spring or summer could potentially work better for your schedule.

The bottom line is that any time is the right time for your Mommy Makeover surgery. Just pick the date and let the magic happen! You’ll be ready to show off your newly sculpted silhouette in no time!
