The goal of a mommy makeover procedure is to restore the appearance of a woman's body after having children. Many women notice changes in their bodies post-pregnancy. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, the breasts will enlarge, increasing as much as a full cup size or more. However, returning back to 'normal' can mean a significant loss in breast volume and sagging.

During pregnancy, the abdominal muscles, skin, and tissues stretch to accommodate the growing baby. Although after childbirth, these layers may not bounce back to their pre-baby shape. There are many areas of the body that can be addressed, including the breasts, abdomen, waist, and buttocks. A mommy makeover is typically performed as a single-stage procedure.

There are many factors that should be taken into consideration, including:

  • Amount of restoration
  • Placement of the incisions
  • Type of implant used
