Mommy Makeover

Bringing a child into the world is such an incredibly magical and unbelievable experience. Over time, however, our bodies tend to pay for it. A Mommy Makeover is a way to reward your hard work! Because everyone’s body shape is different, various treatments and procedures may be recommended, in conjunction with a regular exercise and diet plan to improve and enhance the appearance of the body. Breast enhancement or lift, tummy tuck, and liposuction are common procedures people elect to undergo.

A tummy tuck with tightening of the abdominal muscles can help get rid of that pesky loose skin and bulge that hours in the gym will not fix. A breast lift, possibly with implants, can raise the nipples and breast tissue back up on the chest wall where they used to be, so you can feel better about that bathing suit.

Surgery is performed under general anesthesia and are typically done on an outpatient basis unless the degree or length of surgery necessitates an overnight stay. Recovery typically lasts from 3-6 weeks, during which we recommend you refrain from heavy lifting, pulling or pushing. Common side effects include swelling and bruising. Patients given a compression garment to wear in the weeks following surgery and surgical drains may be placed and then removed around 1-2 weeks.
