The Mommy Makeover has become the most popular combination Cosmetic Plastic Surgery. The procedure addresses the two areas that women complain about most after childbirth: the belly and the breasts. While Tummy Tuck with Breast Augmentation is the most popular combination, many variations exist.

What Can a Mommy Makeover do for Your Belly?
Mommy Makeovers usually include a Tummy Tuck. The tummy tuck cinches the abdominal wall muscles, removes disproportionate fat and tightens loose skin, reversing much of what pregnancy does to the belly.
Sometimes less is needed, and there are several variations of the Abdominoplasty available including the “Floating Belly-Button” Tummy tuck and the Mini Tummy Tuck. When the skin is still tight, but disproportionate fat is the problem, Liposuction may be all that is needed. Click here for more Tummy Tuck Information.
What Can a Mommy Makeover Do For Your Breasts?
The other half of the Mommy Makeovers is Breast Enhancement. The most common enhancement is Breast Augmentation, which fills loose breast skin and enhances both volume and shape. For the loss of breast volume typical after childbirth, Breast Implants can fill the need.
When volume is not a problem, a Breast Lift may be what’s needed. The Breast Lift or Mastopexy, tightens the breast skin without changing the breast volume. Many different breast lifts exists, and the best Mastopexy for you will depend on how much lifting is needed.
Sometimes breasts increase in volume after pregnancy, and remain too large. Breast Reduction Surgery can help. A Breast Reduction, or Reduction Mammoplasty, will remove excess breast volume and tighten the skin, like a Breast Lift. The result is smaller, firmer and perkier breasts. This is especially helpful in cases where your breasts are heavy and causing pain in the neck, back or shoulders.
For mommies who had Breast Augmentation prior to pregnancy, your breast tissue changes with pregnancy, too. While the breast implant will retain it’s volume, sometimes the shape of the breast is impacted with the normal growth and involution of your breast tissue. When the shape is negatively impacted, Breast Implant Revision Surgery can help shape things up again.
