what to expect with a mommy makeover
Tummy Tuck – The belly is a frequent problem area for new moms, since it is often the area where the most pregnancy weight is put on. Plus, pregnancy can cause stress on the abdominal muscles, leaving them damaged and weak. A tummy tuck will help restore the underlying muscles, creating a smaller waist and removing excess skin and fat on the surface for a flatter stomach.
Liposuction – Pockets of fat can develop in the arms, thighs, hips, or buttocks, and these are hard to target with diet and exercise alone. If you have lost most of your pregnancy weight, but these areas will simply not respond to your weight loss efforts, liposuction may be the best solution for you.
Breast Lift – Sagging or deflated looking breasts are another common complaint for new moms, which makes breast lifts and augmentations a popular choice for mommy makeovers. With these procedures, the goal is to achieve a natural fullness in the breasts for symmetry and balance of the whole body.
Labiaplasty –During pregnancy, labor and childbirth, the labia can swell significantly due to an increase in blood flow. The elasticity of the skin can break down leaving a saggy, deflated appearance that can cause interference with certain undergarments, intercourse and urinating. During the procedure, reduction of the excess labia skin is removed and shaped into a more youthful appearance with minimal scarring.

Why exercise may not be enough
Moms tend to seek plastic surgery following pregnancy, because exercise cannot address all of the issues that may arise after birth and breastfeeding.
Excess skin, for example, will never respond to exercise, so the only option for a flat stomach may be a surgical tummy tuck. The connective tissue (fascia) around your abdominal muscles (6-pack muscles) has been stretched, leaving a bulge in the center of your stomach.
There are also hormonal factors that are difficult to control with exercise, so stubborn pockets of fat can develop and get in the way of your ideal figure.

Frequently Asked Questions: Mommy Makeovers
How Many Procedures Are Included In a Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover typically involves a combination of procedures, which can vary depending on each woman’s needs and desires. Common surgeries include abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) to repair the abdominal wall and remove excess skin, liposuction to eliminate stubborn fat, breast surgery (augmentation, reduction, or mastopexy/lift), and other procedures like a facelift or thigh lift, depending on the extent of the desired transformation. The number of procedures performed will be tailored to your specific goals and discussed during your initial consultation.
What Can I Expect During Recovery from a Mommy Makeover?
The recovery process following a Mommy Makeover will depend on the extent of the surgery and the specific procedures performed. Swelling, discomfort, and some pain are expected, but these can be managed with pain medications and by following your surgeon’s instructions. Compression garments and attention to post-operative care will also help minimize complications and promote healing. Most patients can expect to return to their regular lifestyle within 4-6 weeks, with the understanding that full healing may take several months.
How Long Do These Results Last?
The longevity of Mommy Makeover results will depend on several factors, including the procedures performed, the patient’s lifestyle, and any subsequent weight gain or pregnancies. By maintaining a healthy weight and following a balanced diet and exercise routine, many patients can enjoy the benefits of their Mommy Makeover for years to come.
What Will the Scars from a Mommy Makeover Look Like?
Scarring will depend on the specific surgeries performed, the techniques used, and the individual’s healing process. In most cases, incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. For example, a tummy tuck incision may be hidden below the bikini line, while breast lift lift scars depends on the degree of sagging, with the goal of minimal scarring to achieve the desired breast position. Dr. Ronan will take great care to minimize scarring and provide advice on proper wound care to promote optimal healing.
When Is the Best Time for a Mommy Makeover?
The ideal time for a Mommy Makeover will vary for each woman, but it is generally recommended to wait until you have finished having children and have maintained a stable weight for at least six months. This is to ensure the best possible results and minimize the impact of future pregnancies or weight fluctuations on the outcome of the surgery.
How Much Does a Mommy Makeover Cost?
The cost of a Mommy Makeover will vary depending on the combination of procedures needed in your individual situation. During your consultation, our team will provide you with a detailed estimate of the expected cost and discuss financing options, if necessary. It’s essential to prioritize patient safety and work with a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Stephen Ronan with extensive experience in performing Mommy Makeover surgeries.
Can an abdominoplasty eliminate “STRETCH MARKS” from my pregnancy?
If the stretch marks are located in on the lower abdomen (below the belly button) then they can usually be removed in the course of abdominoplasty. Typically, all of the skin from just above the navel to the pubic area is removed. This skin usually contains the stretch marks and well as the less elastic skin. The upper skin which is more elastic, better quality and has fewer or no stretch marks, is stretched across the entire abdomen.
What is the advantage of Axillary Approach for breast Augmentation?
The axillary approach has several advantages for most patients. First, it does not invade the breast tissues directly, going underneath instead. This means that you have a less chance of permanent numbness. In addition, the pectoralis muscle is not divided which gives a stronger support for the implant over time. Another advantage is that there is no scar left on the skin of the breast. Instead, the scar is located in the armpit in a high wrinkle, which is a much less noticeable location. Typically, the scar is smaller.
Why did my breasts get small and droopy after pregnancy?
A loss of volume, often associated with drooping, is very common after pregnancy and is called post-partum breast involution. Volume loss with a small amount of sagging can be corrected with the breast augmentation surgery. For an excessive degree of sagging, a mastopexy or ‘breast lift’ may be the solution. I typically perform a minimal incision breast lift with augmentations. This means that the lift incision is only a circle around the areola. Severe breast drooping may require an additional incision.
