What is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover isn’t just a plastic surgery procedure—it’s a fresh start for many women who have recently become mothers or have been mothers for a long time. The collection of procedures that make up a mommy makeover helps women regain their pre-pregnancy bodies and boost their physical and emotional well-being. Cosmetic surgeries that are commonly included in a mommy makeover, such as tummy tucks, liposuction, and breast augmentation, are all specially tailored to the unique needs and desires of each patient at Atalla Plastic Surgery.

Benefits of a Mommy Makeover

Mommy makeovers offer many physical and emotional benefits that can improve one’s quality of life. These can include:

  • Boost in confidence
  • Shorter recovery time than if you were to receive the procedures separately
  • Fewer wardrobing problems
  • Enhanced body contours

The Atalla Difference

Every mother’s journey is different, and that’s why Dr. Victor Atalla and Dr. Durnen don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. At Atalla Plastic Surgery, we understand that every mother’s body responds differently to pregnancy and childbirth. Dr. Atalla and Dr. Durnen focus on fostering a personalized plan for each client, ensuring your Mommy Makeover goals are met and your unique beauty is enhanced.

How to Prepare for a Mommy Makeover

A mommy makeover procedure is a big deal, both mentally and physically. By preparing yourself, your space, and your family for your recovery, you are setting yourself up for the most success. During a pre-op consultation with Dr. Atalla and Dr. Durnen, specific instructions will be provided to you regarding how to prepare, but following tips from others who have undergone the procedure is another great way to ensure a speedy recovery. Some of these tips include:

  • Meal Prepping: By preparing meals for yourself or your family ahead of time, you minimize the amount of time spent on your feet during recovery. You also eliminate the need to try to figure out what to cook or eat.
  • Coordinate Transportation: You will need to plan on someone driving you to and from your operation. It is also wise to coordinate rides throughout the beginning of your recovery, as you will not be able to drive yourself.
  • Prepare a Recovery Zone: Setting up a cozy designated recovery zone in your house with easy access to amenities like the bathroom and kitchen will reduce the amount of walking around your house. Stocking the area with water, snacks, electronic chargers, books, and pain relievers will make your recovery much easier.
  • Set Up Childcare: The first few days of recovery from a mommy makeover can be quite uncomfortable, and even when your kids understand that you are recovering, it doesn’t mean that they will stop wanting your attention. For this reason, some women choose to organize child care during this portion of recovery to make sure they get the rest they need.

Dispelling the Myths

Countless myths surround the Mommy Makeover. One of the most common is the misconception that it’s a dramatic, risky procedure. In truth, the Mommy Makeover is a combination of well-established surgical techniques, and when done under the guidance of experienced professionals like Dr. Atalla, Dr. Durnen, and their team, it’s as safe as any other surgical procedure. Recovery time also varies for each woman but can be managed quite smoothly.
