What to Expect with Mommy Makeover Results

Being a mom is a hard job, and it can take a toll on your body. After childbirth and breastfeeding, even if you diligently diet and work out, it's still hard to get rid of loose skin and unwanted fat deposits. No matter how many times you visit the gym, you might still be struggling with a tummy pooch. A mommy makeover can give you the toned and tight body contours you once had before childbirth.

Dr. Brandon-Dzung Mang is a board-certified plastic surgeon at Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery in Atlanta, GA who provides a mommy makeover. The surgery can include fat removal and skin tightening of the breasts and abdomen. In addition, Dr. Mang can also include nonsurgical procedures in the mommy makeover for even greater results.

All about a mommy makeover

The benefits of a mommy makeover are undeniable. Your new body can help restore your confidence. A mommy makeover can:

• Tighten the skin of the stomach and breasts by removing unwanted loose skin

• Help you regain your pre-pregnancy figure

• Remove unwanted fat

• Fully customizable to meet your needs

• Offer long-lasting results

After undergoing pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, your body probably does not resemble its pre-pregnancy state. No matter how many times you hit the gym, you are probably struggling with loose skin and getting rid of unwanted fat deposits. You have probably started to grow frustrated. Childbearing takes a toll on your body. Your breasts can become stretched out and resemble deflated balloons, and you may develop wrinkled skin in the abdominal area coupled with unwanted fat deposits on the buttocks, hips, flank, and lower back.

Dr. Mang will meet with you for a consultation to discuss your problem areas. He will go over what cosmetic results you can expect from a mommy makeover. The body contouring treatment usually consists of several targeted procedures, such as a breast lift (with or without implants), liposuction, and abdominoplasty.

Surgeries during a mommy makeover are performed while you are under general anesthesia. Depending on how many procedures you will be undergoing, the surgery time can take from 3 – 7 hours to complete. In most cases, patients need to spend the night at the hospital following the surgery.

During your consultation with Dr. Mang, you can also discuss nonsurgical skin rejuvenation treatments, such as laser treatments or injectables to treat wrinkles or surgical flaws. The nonsurgical skin rejuvenation treatment can easily be coupled with the surgical mommy makeover to give you full body results.

What happens after a mommy makeover?

During your recovery period, you’ll need to ensure you rest and follow Dr. Mang’s aftercare instructions. The recovery process after a mommy makeover takes time. It might be several days before you can walk straight and move around unassisted. You’ll need to follow all at-home aftercare instructions so your incisions heal. In many cases, it can take months to fully recover. However, most women can return to their normal routine within several weeks. You can start exercising after around two months.
