While pregnancy can be a beautiful and wondrous experience, many women long for the body they had before they became a mom. What a makeover can do for your hairstyle or cosmetics regime, a Mommy Makeover in Nashville at Nashville Plastic Surgery Institute can do for your body: make you look and feel fantastic.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover—sometimes referred to as a “mom body makeover,” “mommy surgery,” “mommy breast surgery,” or “mommy tuck “—is designed to address a wide array of facial and/or body-contouring needs associated with pregnancy and age by combining multiple surgical techniques. These include breast augmentation, breast lift, tummy tuck, liposuction, vaginal rejuvenation, BOTOX®, and other desired procedures.

Nashville Mommy Makeover: Restore Your Body After Childbirth

A Mommy Makeover at Nashville Plastic Surgery Institute can include one or more body-contouring procedures, customized to the patient depending on her needs. It may involve 1) increasing, reducing, or lifting the breasts, 2) tightening lax skin and repairing separated muscles in the abdomen, and 3) removing stubborn pockets of excess fat cells.

The joys of having children and building a family are immeasurably valuable. But the toll childbearing can take on a woman’s body is significant. Mothers who have given birth to multiple children and have breastfed each of them are highly likely to be physically altered from childrearing. Even women who exercise and implement a balanced diet will experience lasting major bodily changes. This is where the Mommy Makeover comes in.

Over time, a woman’s breasts begin to lose volume and start to sag, giving them a deflated quality. In addition, loose skin, a belly bulge, and stretch marks are commonplace among mothers. These characteristics cannot be corrected by exercise or dieting. Even the belly bulge is often the result of a separation of the abdominal walls. This results from the stretching of the stomach during pregnancy. The abdominal muscles can only be rejoined surgically.

Comprehensive Nashville Mommy Makeover: Tailored Total-Body Rejuvenation

These procedures are combined to complement one another to provide the most thorough total-body rejuvenation possible in one surgery. The Mommy Makeover combination procedure is tailored to address the needs of the individual patient to help restore their youthful appearance, rejuvenate the skin, and redefine their body’s contours.

During your initial consultation, you can expect an examination and a full assessment by Dr. Unger to marry the desires of the patient with the proper combination of procedure techniques. This is also the time when any questions or concerns can be discussed in detail. Dr. Unger will also show you before and after photographs of past work to give you a better understanding of what to expect. Working with a thorough, experienced, and highly trained plastic surgeon is important, as simply going with the first result when searching “Mommy Makeover near me” will not necessarily partner you with the ideal plastic surgeon for your specific needs.

The combinations of techniques are nearly endless. Because of this, the duration and overall plan for the surgery will vary. Patients should expect general anesthesia to be a part of the surgery, which means the patient is not awake during the procedure.

What would a “full” Mommy Makeover include? Typically, patients interested in total body contouring choose tummy tuck, liposuction, and a form of breast surgery.

During the tummy tuck, excess skin will be removed and the abdominal walls will be rejoined back together as needed. From there, the remaining skin around the midsection is tightened. Most of the stretch marks will be removed in this process as well. Liposuction is used throughout the body where needed.

Many women also opt to have either a breast lift or a breast augmentation with implants. In some cases, women go with both the lift and the implants.

Keep in mind that the best time to have a Mommy Makeover is at least four to six months after the birth of your last child and only when you have decided not to have any more children. Those planning to have more children should wait until afterward to consider this procedure, since pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding can alter the results of the procedure.

What Can a Mommy Makeover Rejuvenate?:

Restore a firm, flat appearance to the abdomen
Eliminate isolated areas of fat from the thighs, tummy, hips, and other trouble spots
Rejuvenate and restore the tone of the vaginal region following childbearing

Dr. Unger is a renowned innovator in breast enhancement surgery and body contouring and will maximize your improvements while ensuring a natural look. Mommy Makeovers usually include a combination of the following procedures:

While body contouring and breast enhancement procedures are popular with many moms, some women also include a facial procedure like a mini-facelift or eyelid lift. Even non-surgical BOTOX® Cosmetic can be helpful by treating the fine lines women can develop after spending many sleepless nights staying up with the baby. Mommy Makeovers enable patients to maximize their downtime by combining several procedures with only a single recovery period.

Mommy Makeover FAQs

When is the best time to get a Mommy Makeover?

The best time for a Mommy Makeover is at least four to six months after your last pregnancy, once your body has fully healed and stabilized. Patients should wait until they are finished breastfeeding and do not plan to have more children, as future pregnancies can affect results.

How long does Mommy Makeover surgery take?

The length of Mommy Makeover surgery depends on the combination of procedures being performed. Because multiple procedures are combined, surgery time can vary significantly. Your surgeon will provide a personalized surgical plan and estimated duration during your consultation.

Is a Mommy Makeover performed under anesthesia?

Yes. Mommy Makeover surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation, ensuring patient comfort and safety throughout the procedure.

What is recovery like after a Mommy Makeover?

Recovery varies depending on the procedures included, but most patients can gradually resume light daily activities within a few days. Full recovery may take several weeks. Combining procedures into one surgery allows patients to experience a single recovery period instead of multiple downtimes.

Will a Mommy Makeover remove stretch marks?

A tummy tuck performed as part of a Mommy Makeover can remove many stretch marks located on the lower abdomen, especially those on the skin that is excised. Stretch marks outside of the treated area may remain but often appear improved due to skin tightening.

Can a Mommy Makeover fix abdominal muscle separation?

Yes. Many women develop diastasis recti, a separation of the abdominal muscles caused by pregnancy. A tummy tuck surgically repairs and tightens these muscles, restoring a firmer, flatter abdominal contour that cannot be achieved through exercise alone.

How long do Mommy Makeover results last?

Mommy Makeover results are long-lasting, especially when patients maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Aging will continue naturally, but most women enjoy their rejuvenated contours for many years after surgery.

Is a Mommy Makeover safe?

When performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon in an accredited surgical facility, a Mommy Makeover is considered safe. Choosing an experienced surgeon and following all pre- and post-operative instructions are essential for optimal safety and results.

How much does a Mommy Makeover cost in Nashville?

The cost of a Mommy Makeover in Nashville varies depending on the procedures included, surgical complexity, anesthesia, and facility fees. Because every Mommy Makeover is customized, pricing is determined after a personal consultation.
