What Is a Mommy Makeover? Here’s What You Need to Know

Written By Allure Admin

Pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding are beautiful experiences—but they can also take a toll on your body. A Mommy Makeover is a customized combination of procedures designed to help mothers regain their pre-baby shape and confidence. Whether it’s restoring breast volume, tightening the tummy, or smoothing stubborn areas, this transformative surgery is tailored to your unique goals.

What Does a Mommy Makeover Include?

Typically, a Mommy Makeover involves a blend of the following procedures:

  • Breast Augmentation and/or Lift: To restore volume or correct sagging.

  • Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty): To tighten abdominal muscles and remove excess skin.

  • Liposuction: To contour areas like the waist, hips, or thighs.

Other treatments such as labiaplasty or non-surgical enhancements can also be added depending on your individual concerns.

What to Expect Before and After Surgery:

Before your procedure, you’ll meet with Dr. Percy Lo, a board-certified plastic surgeon, for a personalized consultation. You’ll discuss your goals, medical history, and get a clear understanding of your options. Ideal candidates are typically done with childbearing and have maintained a stable weight for at least a few months.

Recovery times vary depending on the extent of the procedures performed, but most patients can expect:

  • 2–3 weeks of downtime

  • Gradual return to light activities after the first week

  • Full results visible in a few months as swelling subsides

Is It Worth It?

For many women, the results of a Mommy Makeover go beyond the physical. Reclaiming your shape can boost self-confidence and help you feel like you again. If you’re ready to invest in yourself, this surgery could be a life-changing step toward feeling strong, beautiful, and empowered.
