You adore your kids but miss the way your body looked before you became a mom. Once you’ve completed your family, mommy makeover can provide cosmetic improvement to some of the changes to your body resulting from pregnancy. Mommy makeover consists of various procedures aiming to provide the figure you want. Our triple board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. David Bray, Jr., explains why some patients choose to combine plastic surgeries for mommy makeover.
Mommy Makeover
While the components of mommy makeover vary depending on each woman’s preference, abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, is generally part of mommy makeover. Other options also include:
- Breast augmentation
- Breast reduction
- Breast lift
- Brazilian butt lift
- Arm lift
- Thigh lift
- Liposuction
Less Downtime
Recovering from surgery takes time. You must take time off from work and arrange for someone to look after your children. Rather than take time off from work for three different procedures, combining plastic surgeries only requires one recovery period meaning you will likely require less time off. The same holds true for arranging childcare and housekeeping while you recover.
Lower Costs
By combining plastic surgeries, you can save money on anesthesia and facility fees.
Faster Results
Recovery and results from surgery may take several months. If you undergo separate surgeries, it can take longer to achieve your final result.
Safety
Despite the benefits of combined surgery, it is not always recommended. Safety is always the top priority, and Dr. Bray, Jr. may recommend staging procedures for safety reasons.
