Ready to look and feel better about yourself? Ready for a change?
Are you tired of the sagging skin, annoying unwanted fat pockets, and dropping breasts, tummy and butt brought on by having children? Do you long to get your pre-pregnancy body back, or even something better? Are you ready to now do something for yourself after doing so much for everyone else? If so, this might be the perfect time to decide to have one or more of the body sculpting procedures known as a Mommy Makeover.
As well as this type of plastic surgery, I offer a wide range of other body sculpting procedures that can help you achieve a firmer, more shapely body. To learn more, click here.
With a Mommy Makeover, you choose the combination of procedures for the results you’d like to achieve
Customized for each individual patient, a Mommy Makeover can help correct a wide array of body issues with a combination of body sculpting procedures. Whether you decide to have one surgery or several at the same time, a Mommy Makeover helps women of all ages and body types regain the body they had before pregnancy, or an even better one than they had before.
For many of my patients, choosing to have several body re-shaping surgeries in combination is a smart choice because it limits their total recovery downtime, so they are inconvenienced as little as possible. As a husband myself, I fully appreciate women’s full and busy lives. That’s why I use every state-of-the-art technique available to minimize my patients’ pain and recovery time so they can quickly return to their families and their lives.
Either performed under local, “twilight,” or general anesthesia, a Mommy Makeover can include any or all of these 6 surgical procedures:
Breast augmentation surgery is performed to enlarge small breasts, underdeveloped breasts or breasts that have decreased in size after a woman has had children. It can also make breasts more symmetrical if one is significantly larger or smaller than the other. There are three types of breast implants available in the U.S.: saline (sterile saltwater), silicone gel and the Ideal Implant (a structured, saline-filled implant that combines the natural look and feel of silicone gel with the safety of saline).
Breast lift surgery restores the shape and contour of breasts that have sagged as a result of pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, age, gravity, heredity and other factors. This procedure re-positions the nipple and areola (the pink skin surrounding the nipple) to a higher position, moves the breast tissue to a higher level, removes excess skin from the lower portion of the breast, and reshapes the remaining breast skin.
Liposuction slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by removing excess fat deposits and improving your body contours and proportion. As long as you maintain your weight, liposuction is a permanent solution for fat removal. The most commonly-requested areas of the body for liposuction are: waist, hips, flanks, arms, abdomen, thighs, buttocks and lower legs.
A Brazilian butt lift uses liposuction to take pockets of excess fat from unwanted areas such as your belly, waist or thighs and transfer it to the buttocks area, increasing the size, shape, position and fullness of your butt. The benefits of a Brazilian butt lift are two-fold: it slims and trims those areas where you have too much fat, while giving you a higher, fuller, firmer butt. Plus, since a Brazilian Butt Lift uses your own fat, there is very little risk of rejection.
Tummy tuck surgery, also known as abdominoplasty, is a highly effective way to reduce excess fat and skin and tighten abdominal muscles. A tummy tuck removes loose, flabby skin that has lost its shape and elasticity, strengthens weakened stomach muscles, improves the look and shape of the belly button, defines the waist, removes stretch marks, and creates a smoother, tighter midsection.
Lower body lift surgery, often done in conjunction with liposuction, reduces excess fat and loose, hanging skin. It is also very effective at tightening and sculpting the buttocks, back of the thighs, outer thighs, inner thighs, hips and abdomen. This surgery may also help minimize the appearance of cellulite.
Make sure you’re getting a Mommy Makeover for the right reasons
It’s important to realize that a Mommy Makeover is major surgery with a certain amount of recovery time. For that reason, I want to emphasize that you should undertake a Mommy Makeover for yourself, not to fit some ideal image (airbrushed fashion models, singers or movie stars) or to fulfill someone else’s idea of what your body should look like.
Ideal candidates for this body sculpting surgery should:
- be in good medical health
- be at or near their ideal body weight
- have a positive outlook and realistic expectations
- be finished with childbearing
- not smoke or drink excessively

Is this surgery covered by insurance?
Generally speaking, Mommy Makeover surgery is considered to be an elective cosmetic procedure, meaning that it is not covered by insurance.
