Mommy Makeover
Did the excess weight you gained after pregnancy reverse the shape of your body? You can get your pre-pregnancy body back with the Mommy makeover procedure. With mommy makeover surgery, you can have operations of breast, abdomen, waist, butt and genital areas at the same time as a combination. No need to wait too long to get your body back in shape. The afore mentioned operations can be performed only after the body contour of the person is examined by a doctor.
What is a Mommy Makeover?
A mommy makeover is the process of performing more than one operation at the same time so that you get your pre-pregnancy body shape. Mommy makeover usually includes breast augmentation, breast reduction or breast lift, tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), full body liposuction and Brazilian butt lift surgeries. After the excess skin is removed in the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), the surgical scar is hidden under the underwear.
Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) operation is a surgery performed by removing the excess skin and the fat layers located in the abdomen. The purpose of the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) operation is to make the abdomen firmer and flatter. After the excess skin is removed in the tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), the surgical scar is hidden under the underwear.
Thus, no scar will be visible from the outside. In order to get a better appearance in tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) operation, it should be performed at the same time with liposuction from the abdomen and waist region. While liposuction from the abdomen provides a flat appearance, liposuction from the waist allows you to have a more curved body contour.

Frequently asked questions about mummy makeover
You can find detailed information about the operation and organisation before you come to Turkiye. You can contact your sales representative for any other questions you may have.
It’s generally recommended to wait until you’re done having children before undergoing a mommy makeover. Pregnancy and childbirth can significantly impact the results of the procedure, so it’s best to wait until you’re finished expanding your family to ensure longer-lasting results.
Recovery time can vary depending on the specific procedures involved in your mommy makeover and individual healing rates. However, most patients can gradually begin light activities within a few days to a week after surgery. Strenuous exercise should typically be avoided for at least 4-6 weeks to allow the body to heal properly.
The results of a mommy makeover can vary from person to person depending on factors such as the extent of surgery, individual anatomy, and skin quality. Generally, patients can expect a more toned and youthful appearance in areas such as the abdomen, breasts, and buttocks. However, it’s essential to have realistic expectations and understand that surgery cannot completely reverse the effects of aging or significant weight fluctuations.
Yes, there are non-surgical options available that can complement or substitute certain aspects of a mommy makeover. These may include treatments such as injectables (like Botox or dermal fillers) for facial rejuvenation, non-invasive body contouring procedures, or skin tightening treatments. While these treatments may offer some improvement, they typically cannot achieve the same results as surgical procedures and may require maintenance sessions for long-term benefits.
The duration of a mommy makeover surgery depends on the specific combination of procedures being performed. On average, mommy makeover surgeries can last anywhere from 4 to 6 hours, but this can vary. Your plastic surgeon will provide you with a personalized treatment plan and a more accurate estimate of the surgical time during your consultation.
The recovery process after a mommy makeover can vary depending on the extent of the procedures performed. Generally, patients can expect some degree of swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated areas for the first few days to weeks. Patients are typically advised to take at least 1 to 2 weeks off from work and avoid strenuous activities for several weeks. Your surgeon will provide detailed post-operative instructions and monitor your progress during follow-up appointments.
Like any surgical procedure, mommy makeover surgery carries certain risks and potential complications, including infection, bleeding, adverse reactions to anesthesia, scarring, asymmetry, and changes in nipple sensation. However, serious complications are rare when the surgery is performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon in an accredited surgical facility. Your surgeon will discuss potential risks and complications with you during the consultation and guide how to minimize them.
Breast surgery as part of a mommy makeover, such as breast augmentation or breast lift, can potentially affect breastfeeding ability. However, the extent to which breastfeeding may be impacted depends on the specific surgical techniques used and individual factors such as nipple sensation and milk duct integrity. It’s essential to discuss any concerns about breastfeeding with your surgeon before undergoing breast surgery.
While the results of a mommy makeover can be long-lasting, they are not necessarily permanent. Factors such as aging, weight fluctuations, and pregnancy following the procedure can impact the longevity of the results. However, maintaining a stable weight and following a healthy lifestyle can help prolong the aesthetic improvements achieved through mommy makeover surgery. Regular follow-up appointments with your plastic surgeon can also help monitor and maintain your results over time.
