What Is Typically Included In a Mommy Makeover?



The term “mommy makeover” refers to any customized treatment plan to restore a woman’s pre-pregnancy contours. Usually, this will include multiple plastic surgery techniques, but the exact plan will vary from patient to patient.


Plan Your Mommy Makeover With Dr. Nagy

The best way to ensure you receive the most optimized mommy makeover in Monmouth County is to speak with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Nagy. With years of experience performing a huge variety of both surgical and non-surgical cosmetic procedures, he can carefully decide which ones are right for you based on your goals, symptoms, and medical history. The techniques he chooses frequently include one or more of the following: 


Breast Lift

After pregnancy and nursing, many women notice their breasts starting to sag or that the nipples and areolas are pointed downward. With the breast lift technique, Dr. Nagy is able to raise the areolas and nipples and reorient the breasts for a perkier, more youthful appearance.


Breast Reduction

However, a breast lift on its own does not result in a change of size. By combining a breast reduction and lift, Dr. Nagy can remove excess breast tissue that may have been created during the body’s transition to motherhood.


Tummy Tuck

The abdominal region can have a tough time bouncing back to its former look after childbirth, frequently leaving women with loose skin and weakened muscles in this area. With a tummy tuck, also known as an abdominoplasty, Dr. Nagy can eliminate excess skin and tighten these muscles for a more toned waistline.  


Liposuction

If small, stubborn fat deposits are a problem in the tummy or even the hips, buttocks, or thighs, liposuction could also be an option. Dr. Nagy may use ultrasound-assisted lipectomy (UAL) or suction-assisted lipectomy (SAL) depending on the amount of fat tissue being removed and other medical factors.


Is A Mommy Makeover Limited to the Above Procedures?

Of course not! While those four are the most popular, many women decide to add more protocols to enhance their appearance further. For instance, laser resurfacing can be an excellent choice for dealing with those pesky stretch marks. Some women consider a labiaplasty to rejuvenate their “down under” selves.

In fact, most cosmetic treatments offered by Dr. Nagy and his expert staff can usually be added to a mommy makeover treatment plan. For example, moms also sometimes opt for a:

  • Breast augmentation

  • Breast reconstruction

  • Arm lift

  • Thigh lift 

  • Facelift

  • Brow lift

  • Eyelid lift


When Is the Right Time for A Mommy Makeover?

Good candidates for a mommy makeover are most women whose family is complete, who are no longer nursing, and who are at an ideal BMI. If you are not done having children, you’ll need to wait, as pregnancy and breastfeeding will likely undo the results of plastic surgery.
