Mommy Makeover in Atlanta

You wouldn’t trade being a mom for anything in the world. However, you might be more than willing to trade the effects that pregnancy can have on your body—sagging skin, drooping breasts, and stubborn baby weight—and get your pre-baby body back. If you are unhappy with the changes that having children has made to your body, you are certainly not alone. The good news is that there is something you can do about it.

Many moms choose to have breast and body contouring surgery, which many refer to as a Mommy Makeover, to help reverse some of these unwelcome changes and to see the body that they had before their pregnancy or pregnancies.

A mommy makeover surgery in Atlanta can help you feel more confident in and out of clothing and can even help you fit into the pre-baby wardrobe you thought you’d never be able to wear again.

What Does a Mommy Makeover Consist Of?

A Mommy Makeover package is a combination of body contouring and breast procedures. You can choose which procedures to undergo to achieve your best results.

TUMMY TUCK

After pregnancy, many women are left with unfavorable excess skin even after losing the baby weight. A tummy tuck addresses excess abdominal skin and muscle separation.

LIPOSUCTION

After having a child, you may notice excess fat deposits on your body that seem impossible to remove with diet and exercise. Liposuction works to reduce belly, hip, buttock, and thigh fat.

BREAST LIFT

Pregnancy can cause your breasts to enlarge and become heavy, and they do not always bounce back to the same position they were pre-baby. A breast lift is performed to combat sagging.

BREAST AUGMENTATION

Having a baby can deflate your breasts, causing them to appear smaller and flatter than they once were. A breast augmentation with implants restores breast volume and improves shape.

How Is a Mommy Makeover Performed?

Anesthesia

We typically perform Mommy Makeovers in Atlanta using general anesthesia and intravenous sedation to induce a gentle, painless sleep that keeps you comfortable throughout the surgery.

Incision Options

Your Mommy Makeover incisions will depend on which procedures you choose to undergo. However, your board-certified plastic surgeon will work to place your incisions in inconspicuous locations to reduce visible scarring.

Combining Procedures

A Mommy Makeover is not a single, standardized procedure. Our goal is to help you get your natural and unique body back, not give you cookie-cutter results.

During your consultation with one of our skillful and experienced plastic surgeons, we will listen carefully to your concerns and customize your procedure to make the right changes that will achieve your aesthetic goals.

IS A MOMMY MAKEOVER PAINFUL?

Since your Mommy Makeover will be performed using anesthesia, you will not feel any pain during your procedure. We will ensure that you are equipped to stay comfortable when returning home, using monitored time-release medication or other pain relief technologies.

WHAT IS THE RECOVERY TIME FOR A MOMMY MAKEOVER?

During your recovery from your Mommy Makeover, you should plan to take approximately two weeks off from work and other daily activities, such as running errands and extensive household chores. You should also limit strenuous activities and exercising until your surgeon clears you to resume.

WHEN WILL I SEE MY MOMMY MAKEOVER RESULTS?

Your Mommy Makeover results will be fully visible once bruising and swelling subsides. You will be ready for your post-op pictures at three months.

Am I a candidate for a mommy makeover?

You may be a candidate for a Mommy Makeover in Atlanta if you are unhappy with the effects of pregnancy on your body. Generally, candidates for a Mommy Makeover are in good health, do not smoke, and have realistic expectations of their results. You should wait until you are finished having kids and stopped breastfeeding before undergoing a Mommy Makeover, as these can reverse your results.

Why should I have a mommy makeover as opposed to individual procedures?

A benefit to choosing a Mommy Makeover rather than several individual procedures is that you will likely only need to spend a single day in surgery.

Whichever combination of procedures you choose, your surgeon will often perform them simultaneously to save you multiple trips into surgery and multiple recovery periods.

What can I expect from my mommy makeover consultation?

To determine if you are a candidate for a Mommy Makeover, please schedule a complimentary consultation at our state-of-the-art office and surgical center facility or any of our comfortable and convenient satellite locations around southern Atlanta.

During your consultation, one of our board-certified plastic surgeons will discuss your goals for the procedure, answer any questions you may have, and perform a physical examination to determine if a Mommy Makeover is right for you. Once you are a candidate, your surgeon will create a personalized surgical plan based on your needs.

How much does a mommy makeover cost?

The cost of your Mommy Makeover will depend on which procedures you undergo and the specific surgical techniques used. During your consultation with Advanced Aesthetics Plastic Surgery Center, you will receive a financial estimate.

Can I drive home after my mommy makeover?

Since you will be put to sleep during your Mommy Makeover, you will not be able to drive yourself home from your appointment. You will need to ensure that a trusted friend or family member is available to drive you home from surgery.

What are the risks of a mommy makeover?

When performed by one of our board-certified plastic surgeons, a Mommy Makeover in Atlanta is a generally safe procedure. However, with any plastic surgery procedure requiring anesthesia, risks are present. These risks include:

  • Bleeding
  • Infection
  • Fluid accumulation
  • Anesthesia risks
  • Unfavorable scarring

Please speak with your surgeon if you are concerned about the risks associated with a Mommy Makeover.
