Bringing a new life into this world is very exciting and rewarding for a woman. However, pregnancy and childbirth is a big event for your body and you may feel that you would like to restore or enhance your body after the weight gain, your breasts if they are smaller, bigger or more saggy and/or address changes to your labia. If this is the case you may consider a mommy makeover procedure.
A mommy makeover is the term used for a combination of plastic surgery procedures performed during a single surgery to address multiple areas of concern for a patient. While this is a common procedure for mothers, a mommy makeover is for anyone who is unsatisfied with certain physical aspects of their body and would like to rejuvenate them.
Popular mommy makeover combinations
A mommy makeover is not a cookie-cutter procedure, and procedure combinations will vary from patient to patient. There is no one standard mommy makeover, and each patient will receive their own custom recommendations tailored for their specific needs and lifestyle. The most common surgery procedures performed during a mommy makeover are:
Is a mommy makeover an option for you?
Ultimately, Dr. Arash Izadpanah will determine if this is the best treatment plan for you, but in general you should be in good overall physical health and not pregnant or breastfeeding.
To ensure that your results are preserved, we do not recommend a mommy makeover if you have future pregnancies planned.
Dr. Arashwill give you an honest assessment and let you know if you are a good candidate for a mommy makeover, but if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, are planning to become pregnant in the future, or are currently ill or have an infection, you will not be a good candidate.
If you have multiple areas on your body that bother you, then discuss the possibility of combining procedures for a mommy makeover with Dr. Izadpanah.
