What Is a Mommy Makeover?

A mommy makeover combines multiple procedures to rejuvenate areas most affected by pregnancy, typically the abdomen, breasts, and other regions with stubborn fat or skin laxity. Each plan is customized to your unique goals and anatomy, creating natural results that feel authentically you. A Mommy Makeover can address:

  • Loose or sagging abdominal skin
  • Weakened or separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti)
  • Deflated, sagging, or uneven breasts
  • Stubborn fat around the waist, thighs, or back
  • Stretch marks and skin irregularities

To ensure the best outcome, it’s recommended to wait until you’ve finished breastfeeding and are at a stable, healthy weight before undergoing surgery.

What Procedures Are Included?

Each mommy makeover is unique, designed to enhance your natural features and restore balance to your silhouette.

Breast Enhancement

Pregnancy and breastfeeding can cause the breasts to lose volume or change position. Depending on your goals, your surgeon may recommend:

  • Breast Lift (Mastopexy) to restore perkiness and shape
  • Breast Augmentation to restore lost volume
  • Breast Reduction to reduce size and improve comfort

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

A tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat while tightening the abdominal muscles. The result is a smoother, flatter, more toned midsection and restored strength in the core.

Liposuction

Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise, refining contours around the abdomen, flanks, thighs, or arms. It is often combined with other procedures for a comprehensive result.

Additional Enhancements

Your makeover may also include targeted liposuction of the back, thighs, or upper arms to enhance proportion. Combining these procedures in one surgery minimizes downtime and maximizes transformation.

Had a breast reduction done by Dr Adrian Lee. Amazing surgeon - very kind, explains things well and paid close attention to detail. The staff in the office are very kind too. I am very impressed with how the healing has gone - back pain disappeared and with how thorough he is as a surgeon I believe that’s what helped the recovery process. Would recommend him and the office to anyone. :)

Dr. Oxley has done two procedures removing cancer for me. The first visit I had with him was in the surgery suite. He was professional, punctual and had just the right amount of humour for what was a stressful time for me. The follow up visit was on time and I was booked for a second surgery. The second surgery was again, punctual and professional with a touch of humour. I am in the process of booking a follow up to my latest surgery now. I would not hesitate to use Dr. Oxley again.

Dr. Imran Ratanshi performed my breast reduction surgery a month ago and I feel amazing. The recovery time was unbelievable and his staff has continually checked up on me to make sure I am still doing well. I would recommend him to anyone who is considering this surgery. He is honest and very helpful, provided all of the information I needed to make decision regarding my surgery. I feel like it's one of the best decisions I have ever made for my confidence. He did an incredible job, I trust him 100% and would not hesitate to put myself into his care again. Highly, highly recommend Dr. Ratanshi and his team!

My highest recommendation for an outstanding doctor and person: Dr. Rizwan Mian. Dr. Mian has surgically removed cancer from my skin a number of times in recent years - all basal-cell carcinoma. He has always been the ultimate professional but with a kind and gentle manner that calms any anxiety a patient might be feeling. And when my most recently removed skin tested positive for melanoma I was anxious indeed! This time it was a spot on my cheek that would require a large amount of tissue removal, a biopsy of the closest lymph node, and skin grafting, all done under general anesthesia. But I need not have worried. Dr. Mian was reassuring and amazingly skillful, the surgery was successful, the melanoma contained, and the complicated skin graft has healed so well that the incision on my face is already starting to disappear. Thank you, Dr. Mian!

Can’t recommend Dr Genoway enough! I was looking for a reconstructive surgeon for 5 years, had several consultations with other doctors. As soon as I met Dr Genoway, I knew I found my doctor. She is knowledgeable, experienced, kind and caring. Dr Genoway listened to all of my concerns, gave me honest medical opinion, including to comeback in a few years as I am too young for a particular procedures. I felt comfortable and not rushed or pressured. Most importantly I felt safe and in good hands. Ended up having my postpartum reconstruction and 2 other procedures (long time dream) in one go. Recovery was fast considering the extent of the procedures. I didn’t need the prescribed pain medication at all. She just has this “light hand”. Most importantly, the results are better than expected! Natural looking, better version of me, but still me. I feel more confident and much happier in my own skin.

I was a novice to surgery and the staff here were amazing - very friendly and helpful. Dr. Lee was very calm and knowledgeable and answered my questions. Breast reduction surgery was scary to me but I have zero regrets. Barely any pain or discomfort after surgery and any back pain I had before is now gone. I walk straighter and clothes fit better. My self esteem has improved. Would recommend this office and the actual surgery to anyone considering it. It’s a game changer.

I am a breast cancer survivor. After my reconstruction surgery failed I was referred to Dr Imran Ratanshi. His kind demeanor and great sense of humor put me at ease immediately. I was in a very dark place emotionally due to the appearance of my body. Dr. Ratanshi preformed a deep inferior epigastric perforator surgery and it was a complete success. I believe Dr Ratanshi saved my life! A very skilled surgeon and a wonderful man.

Recovery and Results

Recovery timelines vary based on the number and type of procedures performed, but most patients:

  • Notice an immediate improvement in contour and firmness
  • Return to light activity within 1–2 weeks
  • Avoid lifting and strenuous activity for 4–6 weeks
  • See final results develop over 3–6 months

Your results will last for years when supported by a healthy lifestyle, though natural aging will continue. Our team will provide personalized aftercare instructions to ensure your recovery is smooth and comfortable.

Possible Risks

All surgeries carry some degree of risk. Common, temporary effects include bruising, swelling, and mild discomfort. Rare complications such as infection, asymmetry, or contour irregularities are minimized through careful surgical planning and post-operative care. Your surgeon will review all potential risks during your consultation and answer any questions you may have.

Frequently Asked Questions Mommy Makeover

How Soon After Childbirth Can I Have a Mommy Makeover?

It’s best to wait at least six months after giving birth and three to four months after finishing breastfeeding. This allows your body, weight, and hormone levels to stabilize before surgery.

How Long Does a Mommy Makeover Take?

Surgery time varies depending on the procedures included, typically lasting three to six hours. Your surgeon will outline your personalized surgical plan and recovery expectations during consultation.

Can I Have More Children After a Mommy Makeover?

While it is medically safe to have children after a mommy makeover, future pregnancies may reverse your results. For this reason, we recommend waiting until your family is complete before scheduling surgery.

What Is the Recovery Like?

Most patients return to light activities within two weeks. You’ll need to avoid lifting heavy objects—including small children—for several weeks. Your surgeon will provide detailed aftercare guidance to help ensure a smooth recovery.

Will My Scars Be Noticeable?

Our surgeons use advanced techniques and strategic incision placement to minimize visible scarring. Scars typically fade over time and can often be concealed under clothing or swimwear.
