Mommy Makeover Wellington

If you’re unhappy with how pregnancy and everything associated with giving birth and nursing have affected your body, you may be a good candidate for the mommy makeover. This plastic surgery procedure helps women in West Palm Beach and beyond reclaim a youthful appearance and achieve a body that looks even better than the one they had pre-pregnancy.

What Is a Mommy Makeover?

A mommy makeover is a type of cosmetic surgery that includes several frequently combined procedures that reverse the effects of aging and pregnancy on the body. Popular additions to this plastic surgery include a tummy tuck, breast augmentation, breast lift, and liposuction.

By combining all of these surgeries into one surgical procedure, women can speed up the recovery process and enjoy their results without scheduling multiple procedures and undergoing multiple healing processes.

What Does It Treat?

The mommy makeover in Palm Beach Gardens treats the most common effects of pregnancy and nursing on the body. When you visit Palms Wellington Plastic Surgery, our plastic surgeon, Dr. Nir, will customize a treatment plan that eliminates excess abdominal skin, tightens the abdominal muscles, removes excess breast skin, targets stubborn fat, and enhances the appearance of the breasts.

What Are the Benefits?

Scheduling a mommy makeover has many benefits, especially when you schedule your surgery at Palms Wellington Plastic Surgery. This plastic surgery is completely customizable, and Dr. Nir tailors each mommy makeover to meet the needs of his clients in West Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, South Florida, and beyond.

Mommy makeovers combine several procedures to improve a woman’s body after having children, and because it’s technically considered one plastic surgery procedure, there’s significantly reduced recovery time. Dr. Nir is a world-renowned surgeon with extensive surgical experience who has performed this procedure for years and always delivers exceptional results. Women who undergo a mommy makeover at our private practice can feel confident about every step of the process.

What Types of Plastic Surgery Are Included in This Procedure?

Breast Augmentation With Breast Implants

Breast augmentation is a popular addition to mommy makeovers. Many women choose to augment their breasts with implants to improve their shape and proportions, increase their breast size, and enhance their bodies. Implants are available in multiple sizes and different shapes.

Dr. Nir works with each patient before cosmetic surgery to help them choose the right implant that will naturally enhance their breasts and help them achieve their ideal body proportions.

Breast Augmentation With a Fat Transfer

Women who don’t want to use breast implants may qualify for a fat transfer. A fat transfer is a popular plastic surgery procedure in Palm Beach, FL, during which the plastic surgeon uses liposuction techniques to remove unwanted fat cells from a problem area on the body, typically the abdomen, thighs, hips, or buttocks.

After removing the excess fat, Dr. Nir prepares it, isolates the healthy fat cells, and then uses a specialized process to re-inject those cells into the breasts to increase breast volume and enhance the breast size and shape.

Breast Lift

A breast lift is often performed in combination with a breast augmentation during this plastic surgery to lift the breasts higher on the chest wall. It doesn’t increase breast volume, but it does improve breast shape and appearance. An implant can improve many aspects of the overall appearance of the breasts, but it can’t target excess skin, which results from weight gain and loss after pregnancy, years of nursing, and the aging process.

During a breast lift in the Palm Beach area, Dr. Nir will use breast lift techniques to eliminate excess or sagging skin from the breast area before augmenting the breasts with an implant or via a fat transfer.

Tummy Tuck

The tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is another popular procedure added to the mommy makeover in Boynton Beach. Tummy tucks transform the midsection. They help patients achieve a flatter tummy, eliminate excess abdominal skin, and improve the strength, structure, and appearance of the abdominal muscles.

Excess abdominal skin often results from the physical changes that occur during and after pregnancy, which is why this surgical procedure is so effective. Dr. Nir will eliminate all that excess skin that makes you self-conscious during your tummy tuck. He’ll also use liposuction to remove the excess fat that accumulates in the abdominal region, which seems resistant to diet and exercise.

Liposuction

Liposuction is a form of body contouring that is used during the mommy makeover to sculpt the area around the breasts and remove stubborn adipose tissue from the abdomen. However, Dr. Nir can also use it to remove fat and contour other problem areas on the body, like the thighs, arms, legs, buttocks, and more.

If you live in Palm Beach, FL, and are interested in this plastic surgery, you can add liposuction to your customized mommy makeover in combination with other procedures to contour different body areas and improve body shape and proportions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Am I a Good Candidate?

The best candidates for the mommy makeover are patients in Palm Beach Gardens and the surrounding areas who want to undergo a customized surgery performed by an expert to reclaim their pre-baby bodies. The ideal patient should be in good health, have reached a stable weight, be able to safely tolerate general anesthesia, and be willing to comply with all of the post-operative instructions.

The mommy makeover is ideal for those who are done having children and want to feel comfortable in their bodies and not feel self-conscious about drooping or disproportional breasts, excess fat or skin on the abdomen, and other body imperfections resulting from one or more pregnancies that can’t be effectively addressed outside of these procedures. An additional pregnancy after a mommy makeover will negatively affect the results of the procedures performed, especially abdominoplasty.

What Kind of Recovery Should I Expect?

After your mommy makeover, you’ll need to get plenty of rest. Doctors typically recommend that patients spend time resting after they have a surgical procedure performed, and this is especially important after a mommy makeover, since you’ll undergo more than one type of surgery. Most women will need to rest and focus on a healthy recovery for several weeks and can typically resume normal activities after six weeks.

Our support staff and our surgeon will give you details about what to expect after surgery so you can plan for your recovery ahead of time. You’ll receive information about pain medications and when to take them. Eating a healthy diet and getting plenty of rest in combination with following all of the aftercare directives is key to reducing and limiting pain after surgery and ensuring the best results.

When Will I See My Results?

Once your body heals after a mommy makeover, you’ll start to see your results. If you choose to add a breast augmentation and breast lift to this surgical procedure, you’ll notice increased breast volume, tighter skin, and improved proportions. If you also address problem areas and your abdominal region, you’ll notice tighter skin after surgery, reduced fat volume, and a flatter midsection.

Do I Need To Add Tummy Tuck Surgery to My Mommy Makeover?

Adding a tummy tuck to a mommy makeover is a personal decision each patient must make. If you’re unsure about what type of cosmetic surgery to add to your mommy makeover, Dr. Nir will work with you to customize your procedure so that you are happy with every step of the process.
