Mommy Makeover Procedures

Benefits of a Mommy Makeover

The main reason that many women choose to have their procedures combined into a Mommy Makeover rather than having individual surgeries at different times is simple – time. Whether you work, are a stay at home mom or juggle both, there is no getting away from the fact that your children are heavily reliant on you. The younger they are, the more they need their mom. When mom is out of action, such as when recovering from surgery, it can be a difficult time for everyone in the home.

When you choose a Mommy Makeover, you will only need:

• One pre-surgical assessment appointment

• One general anesthetic

• One surgery

• One recovery
  
  

Granted there is more to recover from as you will simultaneously be healing from two or more procedures. However, this single recovery is hugely important for many busy moms. You will only need to arrange for help and support from partners, family, friends, etc once, and if you work, you will only need to arrange one block of leave from your job. This makes things far easier for most moms to organize.

Another popular benefit of a Mommy Makeover is that you can see a total transformation in your appearance much more quickly. After you have healed, those aspects of your shape and size that have caused you the most concern will be transformed, giving you improved confidence and the ability to start enjoying your body again.

Am I a Candidate For a Mommy Makeover?

To decide whether you are a good candidate for a Mommy Makeover, you will first need to attend a consultation with our experienced cosmetic surgeons. They will perform a comprehensive assessment to determine which procedures you may be suitable for and whether as a whole, a Mommy Makeover is the right option for you.

Generally, patients who are good candidates for a Mommy Makeover share several attributes. These include:

• Being at a weight that they are happy with (since a Mommy Makeover is not a weight loss solution and losing extra pounds after the surgery could re-create issues such as sagging skin or lost breast volume).

• Being in good general health. You will need to be fit and healthy enough to undergo general anesthetic and make a good recovery.

• Be looking to change your appearance for the right reasons, e.g. not because you think that surgery will transform your life or because someone else thinks you should.

• Be certain that their family is complete.
