MAKEOVER

Pregnancy and childbirth can be some of the most joyous and rewarding events of your life. They are also filled with love, happiness, and many physical changes to your body that may last long after your children have grown. After pouring so much of your time and energy into your family, it’s only natural that you want to refocus some attention on yourself. Are you looking to tighten your tummy, enhance your breasts, or address other changes to your body after pregnancy? A Mommy Makeover may be just what you need to look and feel like yourself again. At Alpine Plastic Surgery in Ogden, every Mommy Makeover treatment plan is customized to you. Dr. Randall Barnett will thoroughly discuss your goals, your options, and prioritize your safety every step of the way. In many cases, multiple procedures can be performed safely in the same surgery—allowing you to achieve life-changing results while recovering just once.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is not one single procedure. It is a customized combination of surgeries which are selected to address the results of pregnancy and breastfeeding. This can include breast augmentation or lift and tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) liposuction, and other body contouring procedures. Soft tissue tightening and abdominal wall repair are often recommended as well to restore your shape and core strength.

If you’re reading this, you may already be a good candidate for a Mommy Makeover. In fact, one of the first things we will discuss during your consultation with Dr. Barnett is what your expectations should be for the surgery to ensure that you are happy with your results. It’s our job to help you get the body contours you desire…and we always want that for you, and you alone.

Here are some of the concerns a Mommy Makeover can correct:

Breast shape or size changing after pregnancy and/or breastfeeding
Body proportions distorted by breast growth
Stubborn “pooch” or sagging skin over a C-section scar

If any of these sound familiar you may be a perfect candidate for a Mommy Makeover.

Mommy Makeover FAQ’s

What Is Involved in a Mommy Makeover?

Your Mommy Makeover is completely personalized to meet your needs and desired goals. At your private consultation, Dr. Randall Barnett will discuss your concerns and provide an explanation of what to expect with one or more of the following procedures:

Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) – to tighten abdominal muscles and skin
Breast surgery – augmentation, lift, or both to restore breast size, shape, and firmness
Body contouring – liposuction to sculpt the body and refine the lines

What are the benefits of combining procedures?

The Mommy Makeover typically combines two or more surgeries in one visit. In addition to saving time and money, a combined approach provides dramatic and balanced results. By undergoing two or more procedures at the same time, we maximize the use of your accredited surgical facility, anesthesia, and surgical team, and often save you a considerable amount of money as compared to having the operations individually.

When is the right time to consider a Mommy Makeover?

Pregnancy and major weight changes can affect your results, so it’s important to schedule your Mommy Makeover once you’re finished having children and your weight has stabilized. Waiting until then will help ensure your results will last.

How Long Should I Wait After My Last Baby?

We recommend waiting at least six months after childbirth to have a Mommy Makeover. This gives your body time to recover naturally, for skin to tighten on its own, and for excess weight to settle. If you are breastfeeding, it’s also important to wait until after you have completely weaned your baby before having a breast procedure.

What should I Expect During Recovery?

After procedures such as a tummy tuck, liposuction or breast surgery, you must limit physical activity to prevent complications. For a few weeks, you should not lift, bend, or perform any strenuous activities. You should have family or friends available to help with childcare and household responsibilities. During your recovery, you should focus on rest, healing, and following your post-surgery instructions.
