Introduction

About the Mommy Makeover

Childbearing can be a rewarding experience – it can also be immensely challenging. Your children bring joy to your life, but you may not have felt prepared for the long-lasting changes your body would undergo. These changes can make it difficult to feel like yourself when “mom” has become your main identity. Wishing to feel like yourself again isn’t selfish – it’s one of the best things you can do for yourself after everything you do for your family. The mommy makeover is a customizable suite of plastic surgery procedures that can restore areas of the body most commonly impacted by pregnancy, all performed at once. You can reclaim your pre-pregnancy body and feel like yourself again with a mommy makeover.

What Brings You Here?

Candidates for a Mommy Makeover

The journey to get here can be a long one. Choosing cosmetic surgery is always a culmination of many different factors unique to each person. Do the following ring true for you? If so, you’re on the right path. 

You Have Stubborn Fat and Stretched Skin 

Pregnancy often leaves behind stretched and sagging skin as weight fluctuations occur. It’s most common in areas like the stomach and lower body, but it can also impact the breasts. These concerns can make it difficult to feel confident and strong. 

You Have Separated Abdominal Muscles 

As the stomach expands during pregnancy, it can stretch and separate the abdominal muscles. This can result in weakness in the core, causing symptoms like back pain, incontinence, and more. These added struggles can make it hard to love your body despite the amazing things it’s done. 

You Have Sagging, Deflated Breasts 

Nursing can impact the breasts significantly. Breasts typically deflate or lose volume after pregnancy, and they may not look the same without wearing a bra. Sagging breasts can leave you looking older than you feel. 

You Have Time for Recovery 

The mommy makeover requires significant recovery time because it combines multiple procedures into one. If your children are relatively self-sufficient, you’re in a good place to begin focusing on yourself. If you’re unable to take a few weeks away from child or pet care, it may be best to wait. 

You’re In Overall Good Health 

As with any surgery, you should be in overall good health. Dr. Tehrani will review the details of your medical history during your consultation. 

You’re Fully Recovered from Childbirth 

Childbirth can be taxing on your body, so you should be fully recovered before considering surgery. We recommend waiting six months to one year to allow yourself time to recover and adjust to life after pregnancy. 

You Aren’t Planning on Future Children 

Although the mommy makeover won’t prevent you from being able to get pregnant in the future, another pregnancy can reverse your results. It’s best to be finished creating your family before considering surgery. 

Mommy Makeover Goals

Recreate Your Pre-Pregnancy Body 

The ultimate goal of the mommy makeover is to recapture your body as it was before pregnancy. Motherhood doesn’t need to be sacrifice when it comes to your body – you can feel just as good as you did before. 

Tighten Stretched Muscles and Skin 

The mommy makeover can tighten stretched skin and muscles, creating an overall trimmer, slimmer look. You can enjoy the outfits you used to wear before pregnancy. 

Restore Curves 

Pregnancy can cause stubborn fat in places you may not want. A mommy makeover can remove pockets of fat and possibly even transfer them to areas like the butt or breasts. 

Repair Damaged Tissues 

The vagina, vulva, and pelvic floor muscles can become damaged during childbirth, negatively impacting pelvic health. The mommy makeover can rejuvenate these areas to alleviate symptoms and help you feel like yourself again. 

Benefits of the Mommy Makeover

How can we help you feel great about your decision?

Imagine how a mommy makeover can transform your confidence and reintroduce you to the body you had before pregnancy. Dr. Tehrani can help you learn more about the many benefits and how they match your goals. Here are just a few. 

Reduced Downtime 

Because the mommy makeover combines procedures, you only need to plan for a single downtime. If you instead opt for multiple procedures over time, you’ll need multiple recovery periods. Combining procedures is a great time-saving measure that allows you to get back to your family faster. 

Lower Costs 

Some costs associated with a mommy makeover can be reduced by combining procedures, such as anesthesia, facilities, and more. It can help you stay focused on providing for your family. 

Comprehensive Results 

Undergoing multiple procedures at once allows Dr. Tehrani a more comprehensive view of your goals and intended results. This means he can more effectively capture the look you want, without worrying about changes between procedures.

Mommy Makeover Preparation

How do I get started?

As with anything, preparation is key. Dr. Tehrani will review the following instructions during your consultation: 

  • Stop smoking as soon as possible before your procedure. Nicotine can impair your healing ability. 
  • Maintain a stable weight. Weight fluctuations can negatively affect the intended results of your mommy makeover. 
  • Avoid medications like blood thinners, anti-inflammatories, and herbal supplements. These can put you at risk during surgery. 
  • Arrange for travel to and from your procedure. You’ll be unable to drive after. 
  • Designate a responsible adult to stay with you for the first 24 hours. Also, arrange for child or pet care as needed. 
Compare & Contrast

Mommy Makeover vs. Body by Tehrani

Mommy Makeover 

The mommy makeover is a procedure tailored specifically to moms and the areas impacted by pregnancy. It typically includes options like breast augmentation, tummy tuck, liposuction, and more in order to recreate your pre-pregnancy body. It may include body contouring options, but the overall goal is repairing the stomach and breasts. 

Body by Tehrani 

Body by Tehrani is another comprehensive suite, but it focuses on body sculpting and fat removal. Using advanced liposuction options, Dr. Tehrani can uncover better muscle definition and get rid of stubborn fat. It’s a great way to achieve a more toned look but it doesn’t specifically address common post-pregnancy concerns. 

Mommy Makeover Recovery

The mommy makeover requires a few weeks of dedicated recovery time. It’s important to avoid strenuous activity and focus on resting. Dr. Tehrani will give you detailed aftercare instructions on how to sleep, care for your incisions, and maintain hygiene based on your specific procedures. You’ll follow up regularly with our team to check your progress and ensure your results are emerging as intended. It can take a few months for your final results to settle in, but by avoiding future pregnancies and living a healthy, active lifestyle, you can enjoy your stunning results and newfound confidence for years to come.

Within 4-6 weeks, you can begin to return to regular, light activities.

Procedure Pairings

Breast Augmentation 

Breast augmentation uses breast implants to enhance the size, shape, and projection of the breasts. They’re an effective way to restore lost volume due to pregnancy and nursing. 

Breast Lift 

The breast lift can bring the breasts into a more upright position if they sag or deflate. The breast lift doesn’t restore volume on its own but can be easily combined with breast augmentation. 

Tummy Tuck

The tummy tuck gets rid of sagging skin and stubborn fat on the abdomen. It can also tighten the abdominal muscles to restore their function. 

Liposuction 

Liposuction gets rid of stubborn fat pockets, especially in areas where moms tend to carry it, like the hips, thighs, and stomach.  

Vaginal Rejuvenation 

Vaginal rejuvenation can repair vaginal laxity and stretched or damaged labia as a result of childbirth, restoring anatomical and sexual function.
