Mommy Makeover

Conveniently located to serve Rochester

During the processes of pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, it’s natural for a woman’s body to undergo several changes. Apart from the stretch marks, there are other changes that may appear unpleasant, such as drooping breasts, excess abdominal skin, a sagging buttock, and weight gain. Most women want their pre-pregnancy bodies back, but no matter how much time they spend dieting or in the gym, they see no results. The answer to this issue is a Mommy Makeover.

What Is a Mommy Makeover?

The Mommy Makeover is a package of several plastic surgery procedures that help restore your body to your pre-pregnancy appearance. Typically, these procedures focus on your abdomen and breasts.

Procedure options for the package include:

The term “Mommy Makeover” is fairly new, but these procedures have been safely conducted for several years and have great success rates. Dr. Jacobson can examine the areas of the body you want to address and go over the options for a mommy makeover to help determine which combination of procedures works best for you.

Who Should Consider a Mommy Makeover?

Women who are unhappy with their post-pregnancy bodies are ideal candidates for a Mommy Makeover. The procedure can repair and reverse issues like a change in shape and size of your breasts, a sagging tummy, stretch marks, loose skin, and excess deposits of fat in the abdomen, waist, or hips. Women who have undergone C-sections are also eligible.

How Is a Mommy Makeover Performed?

As mentioned above, a Mommy Makeover is a combination of different procedures of your choosing. During a consultation with Dr. Jacobson, a highly skilled board certified plastic surgeon, you will discuss which procedures you would like performed.

Tummy Tuck

The tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, helps correct loose excess skin, fat deposits, and separation of the rectus muscles in the abdominal area. It plicates the rectus muscles and removes excess skin, which results in a firmer abdomen and the removal of stretch marks.

Liposuction

Liposuction, or lipoplasty, helps improve your body’s contours by removing excess deposits of fat cells in areas such as the abdomen, waist, hips, thighs, chest, neck, and upper arms. This procedure is often recommended with the tummy tuck.

Breast Enhancement

A breast lift, or mastopexy, helps correct uneven drooping breasts and stretched areolae. This gives your breasts a nice lift to return them to a more youthful appearance. Women who want to change the size of their breasts may consider a breast augmentation or reduction procedure along with their mastopexy.

Mommy Makeover Aftercare and Recovery

Different procedures will have different recovery periods, but with a Mommy Makeover, the procedures will all be performed together, requiring only a single recovery period. If the procedures were performed separately, you would need to undergo several lengthy recovery periods spread out over the course of a year or so.

The first week to two will be the roughest, but the discomfort will become easier as the days progress. It is advised that for the first couple of weeks, you refrain from strenuous physical activities that can apply a lot of pressure on your stitches. You may have a drain in the abdomen or breasts. Full recovery is expected to take about six weeks. Our team will provide you with a list of post-operative instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to make sure your recovery goes as smoothly as possible.

The Cost of a Mommy Makeover

The cost of a mommy makeover will be based on which procedures are being performed, any implants used, and the length of the surgery. This will be discussed during your consultation at Jacobson Plastic Surgery.
