Restore your pre-pregnancy figure.
Mommy Makeover refers to a combination of cosmetic surgery procedures that restores post-pregnancy bodies, typically focusing on the breasts and abdomen. One of the main benefits of getting a Mommy Makeover is that it handles the areas that have been affected in only one surgical setting with only one recovery period. From fuller and perkier breasts to a flatter and tighter stomach, a Mommy Makeover will help you restore the shape of your pre-pregnancy body. The Mommy Makeover trend encompasses a wide array of surgeries to correct loose skin, stored fat, rectus diastasis and drooping or diminished breasts. It is best to wait until after you have finished having children to undergo a Mommy Makeover as the results of surgery may not remain if you choose to have more children.
Mommy Makeover Procedure
A Mommy Makeover is entirely customized and procedures may vary from woman to woman. We encourage you to schedule an appointment with Dr. Marco Romeo to discuss and decide on the right procedures to help restore your pre-pregnancy body (liposuction, tummy tuck, breast augmentation, breast reduction, breast lift or vaginal rejuvenation). A Mommy Makeover is usually performed under general anesthesia and hospitalization is required. In most cases, two procedures can be undertaken in the same surgery. If you wish to have more than two procedures in the same surgery, this must be discussed with Dr. Marco Romeo due to the higher risk of complications.
Mommy Makeover Recovery Time
Most patients who have desk jobs can return to work 10 to 15 days after surgery and be back to most daily life activities after 15 days. You can expect to require at least 4 weeks off intense activity including exercise.
Most Mommy Makeover patients have their drains removed within 24 to 72 hours of surgery. A compression recovery garment and bra must be used for 30 days to minimize swelling and fluid buildup, promote skin retraction and reduce the risk of hematoma and seroma.
Lymphatic drainage massage therapy after surgery is required to enjoy a shorter and smoother recovery time and to achieve the best surgery results. Mommy Makeover final results can be expected after a few months.
