A sequenced post-pregnancy plan that may combine breast and abdominal work, only when a single theatre session stays safe.
“Mommy makeover” is a popular name for combining operations that address changes after pregnancy, most often a tummy tuck with breast surgery such as a lift, augmentation or reduction, sometimes with liposuction.
Combining procedures can mean one recovery instead of several, but it also means a longer operation. The surgeon decides whether everything can be done safely together or should be staged.
These are general points only. Whether an operation is suitable for you is decided by the treating surgeon after an in-person examination, your medical history and any tests they request.
You share photos and your medical history. The surgeon gives a first opinion on whether the operation is suitable and what it could realistically achieve.
The surgeon examines you in person, confirms the plan, explains the risks and arranges pre-operative tests before you give consent.
The agreed combination of procedures is carried out under general anaesthesia, or split into two stages if that is safer.
The surgeon reviews healing before you travel home, and you receive written aftercare instructions and remote follow-up.
You usually stay in hospital for at least one night. Pain is controlled with medication, you start walking early to protect against clots, and drains may be in place.
Drains and stitches are removed as healing allows. You wear a compression garment and avoid lifting and strenuous activity.
Most people return gradually to exercise with the surgeon’s approval. Swelling is still present and can vary from day to day.
Swelling settles and scars slowly fade and flatten. The final shape is usually judged after several months.
Timelines vary between people. Always follow the aftercare instructions from your treating clinic.
Most surgeons recommend waiting at least six to twelve months after birth and until breastfeeding has finished, with a stable weight.
Only if the total time and your health make it safe. Otherwise, staging is the more cautious choice.
It depends on the operation. Many are planned around one to two weeks so the surgeon can check you and remove stitches or drains before you fly. Flying soon after surgery raises the risk of blood clots, so your surgeon confirms when it is safe to travel.
The price depends on the operation the surgeon recommends after examining you, the hospital stay and any combined procedures. You receive a written, itemised quote before anything is booked, with no obligation to proceed.
Share your details and a coordinator will reply with clear next steps. There is no obligation to proceed.
