What is a Mommy Makeover?

Candidates for a Mommy Makeover

Healthy women who are at their ideal body weight, are finished with childbearing, and have a positive outlook on their results can often benefit from a mommy makeover. If you are considering including breast surgery as part of your Scottsdale mommy makeover, it is important to wait several months after you are finished breastfeeding to let your breasts return to a stable shape and size.

The Procedure

Prior to your mommy makeover, you may be asked to adjust your current medications, stop smoking, or avoid taking anti-inflammatory drugs that can increase bleeding.

Because the mommy makeover procedure is personalized to each patient?s needs and goals, no two surgeries will be exactly alike. This procedure can be performed using IV sedation or general anesthesia and your surgeon will choose the best one for you. Next, the chosen surgeries will take place to help recontour the body and eliminate excess skin, tissue, and fat for a slimmer, more youthful appearance. Incisions will be closed using sutures and/or surgical tape.

Recovery

Recovery time for a Scottsdale mommy makeover will vary depending on the number and extent of the procedures performed. For those who undergo breast surgery as part of their mommy makeover in Scottsdale, a support bra will need to be worn to help minimize swelling and support your breasts. You may also be asked to wear a compression garment to reduce swelling of the abdomen, waist, or buttocks. Healing will take several weeks, and results will become more noticeable as the swelling goes down. Our team will provide you with specific aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and beautiful results.
