Mommy Makeover

The tummy tuck is combined with a breast enlargement, with or without a breast lift. The mons or pubic area, which sits above the labia, between the top of the inner thighs and below the panty line, is lifted. Liposuction can also be added to a lift to reduce any fullness below the panty line. After pregnancy, the mons is usually a broad wide triangle shape instead of the sharp inverted triangle of youth. A tummy-tuck can lift the mons restoring the narrow triangle shape and can also help to lift the inner and outer thighs. A lift with liposuction of the mons is often standard as part of a tummy-tuck.

The fat removed from the hips and thighs can also be re-injected into the buttocks to give a fuller curvier shape or even into the face, to correct volume loss in the cheeks and lips.

When to Consider a Mommy Makeover

A Mommy Makeover is a cosmetic procedure, meaning it is typically done for aesthetic enhancement. None-the-less, tummy-tuck surgery can strengthen the core and improve posture and breast lift surgery will also improve posture. Whether to do surgery is a highly personal decision. This popular procedure can be a great solution for women who:

  • Are in good health after pregnancy and childbirth
  • Are between 20 and 70 years old
  • Want to regain their pre-pregnancy shape
  • Have weak tummy muscles with or without extra skin and fat that is diet and exercise resistant.
  • Loss of breast volume, saggy breasts or even excessive breast tissue.
  • Have areas of diet and exercise resistant fat in the stomach, hips and back area 
  • Would like to reverse the effects of pregnancy, with or without additional body contouring procedures

Usually, a tummy tuck and breast surgery are performed in isolation. Surgery may be combined with other procedures such as liposuction and body contouring of the hips and back (bra-strap) area.  A labioplasty can be performed at the same time or separately.

Mommy Makeover Results and Recovery

It may take some time to fully recover and see your final results after a Mommy Makeover. However, many patients are able to return to work in about two weeks and resume other activities (like working out) in approximately six weeks.

Following surgery, you will experience swelling and some bruising. To help reduce swelling, Dr. Kirwan will suggest that you wear a compression garment continuously for two weeks and during the day for an additional two to four weeks. The breasts, the tummy and any areas of liposuction, will be swollen after surgery. You will retain fluid for several days after surgery. The contours of your breasts, your tummy and the areas of liposuction will gradually become more defined as the swelling decreases and as the tissues heal and contract. It will take 6 to 12 months to see the final result. However, you will be able to your new curves during the initial weeks and months after surgery.

Be sure to follow any instructions provided by Dr. Kirwan and his staff before and after your cosmetic surgery to ensure a smooth procedure and recovery.
