Welcoming a child into the world is a beautiful and joyous experience for many women and their families. However, the toll of childbirth and pregnancy on the body can result in challenges such as loose skin, stretch marks, and stubborn fat deposits that resist conventional lifestyle changes. At Rao Plastic & Hand Surgery in Tucson, AZ, our specialists collaborate with mothers to help them achieve more toned and rejuvenated silhouettes after pregnancy. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Arun Rao offers personalized mommy makeovers to address individual needs.
A mommy makeover is a cosmetic procedure that combines various fat removal and skin tightening surgical techniques to contour the body post-pregnancy. Dr. Rao conducts a comprehensive body assessment, considers each patient’s cosmetic goals, and tailors a mommy makeover plan to achieve the desired figure.
Benefits of a mommy makeover include addressing various bodily changes post-pregnancy, such as stretch marks, fat deposits along the lower back, thighs, and hips, loose abdominal skin, lax abdominal muscles, and sagging or deflated breasts. The combination of skin tightening and fat removal techniques enhances a woman’s overall silhouette, providing a more youthful and curvaceous figure. Performing multiple surgical techniques in a single session minimizes overall costs and recovery time.
Commonly selected procedures for a mommy makeover include liposuction, tummy tuck, breast lift, and breast augmentation. The specific surgical techniques are chosen based on the patient’s goals and Dr. Rao’s professional recommendations.
Ideal candidates for a full mommy makeover are women who are in overall good health, past their pregnancy years, experience sagging or loose skin due to pregnancy, have deflated breasts resulting from pregnancy and/or breastfeeding, struggle with stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise, have realistic expectations about cosmetic surgery, and respond well to general anesthesia. Dr. Rao reviews personal and medical histories to ensure the safety of mommy makeover surgery.
Mommy makeover surgeries are customized and take place at Rao Plastic & Hand Surgery in Tucson, AZ. The duration varies based on the selected cosmetic procedures, with most performed under general anesthesia. While some may require an overnight hospital stay, patients typically face a recovery period of up to six months.
To maintain mommy makeover results for many years, patients are advised to adhere to recovery instructions, maintain a healthy lifestyle, adopt a good skincare routine, maintain a healthy weight, and avoid getting pregnant again.
