A mommy makeover is a procedure to restore deformities after childbirth. It aims to help women gain before pregnancy body shape back. A new form of anxiety is created by weight gained during pregnancy after childbirth.
However, today it is possible to reshape the body for an even better version than before with a mommy makeover operation. A mommy makeover is not only for getting rid of pregnancy weight but also for sagging caused by breastfeeding.
The operations are as follows:
The list above is not a complete must-undergo procedure step, different combinations of these can be made depending on the conditions and needs. Each patient has different conditions. After the doctor’s examinations, the operation is planned according to the necessary operations.
The right time for a mommy makeover depends on the operations chosen for the patient. If there are breast operations included, it must at least be 6 months after the breastfeeding process is completed. For abdominal operations, 1 year after childbirth is the right time because the abdomen takes its real form in 1 year and operations must be planned over this form.
For vaginal operations in the procedures, there is no required waiting period, however, to overcome maternal exhaustion completely, a 3-6 month waiting is advised.
Good candidates for mommy makeovers are all mothers who cannot lose pregnancy weight through diets or exercises. The age range is 20 to 40 years, however, any age group can undergo mommy makeover procedures. The procedures are risk-free operations suitable for anybody. However, to prevent any risks due to medications, operations must be performed after the breastfeeding process is completed.
Combining all operations in mommy makeovers has no risks in general. However, to determine the right time and procedure plans, a detailed examination is needed. During the preliminary examination, doctors can decide the process and operations suitable to perform. It is possible to perform the operations simultaneously or separately in different sessions. Because some of the operations may require intervals in between, and cannot be combined as one session and there are some cases where operations are not preferred to combine because of the surgery durations.
Recovery time is also related to the operations planned to be performed. However, if the patient wants a short recovery process, operations must be performed separately because combined operations recovery duration is longer, compared to single operations
Before and after the procedures are as follows:
Before and After the operation, if patients pay attention to the process and follow doctors’ advice, it is easier to achieve the desired result. To have all information to act accordingly, patients must discuss all the details with doctors.
A mommy makeover does over depends on the consensus between the patient and the doctor. Especially for mothers who have second pregnancies, there is no harm to do mommy makeover procedures to reshape the body and regain its old form of the body.
Although mommy makeover is a complete operation, some of the operations may be eliminated or postponed after the second pregnancy. However, in both cases, mommy makeover does over has no negative effects on the patients.
The recovery depends on the operations. The more operations performed, the longer the recovery takes. The duration may be 1-month on average after the operations. However, in about 4 hours after the surgery, it is possible to get up and return to their routine, but patients must be extra careful about the stitches. A 1-month recovery process is also required for the body to take the desired form after the operations. At the end of 2nd week, swelling and pain symptoms disappear and after stitch removal, recovery is completed rapidly.
In some cases, only breast or only abdomen operation may be preferred. A single procedure takes about 1 week as the recovery process. Besides all, since recovery is highly related to the patient’s medical conditions and body shape, doctors, after an examination, can give more information about the recovery process.
Mommy makeover risks have no evidence proven by research. Since the operations included in a mommy makeover are cosmetic procedures, performing them under the right conditions and at the right time prevent factors that may create risks. Performing the operations after the breastfeeding period ends, prevents any negative complications for mothers and babies. Internal between the end of breastfeeding and operation must be 6 months.

There is no risk to get pregnant again after the operation.
