Mommy Makeover

Mommy Makeover


Becoming and being a mother is, without doubt, something truly wonderful. Yet with a child, a woman's life is often turned completely upside down, following new priorities. The same is true of the body after pregnancy and breastfeeding.


Pregnancy leaves its mark. Postnatal exercise, diet and sport are frequently not sufficient to restore the body to its former shape. The abdomen is no longer as firm and the breasts no longer as lifted. Often the skin has also suffered from the significant weight fluctuations, which manifests as stretch marks on the abdomen, thighs and buttocks. Other areas of the body may change too, particularly as a result of vaginal deliveries. In such cases, a so-called
Mommy Makeover

is the right treatment to help you regain your shape.


Many women do not wish to accept these post-birth changes. When the abdominal skin is severely stretched – as is often the case following twin pregnancies or multiple pregnancies – many women consider a
tummy tuck

. In many cases, a
tummy tuck

is also combined with
liposuction

of the hip area. Dissatisfaction with the breasts is equally common; the breasts undergo particular changes due to weight fluctuations and breastfeeding. Here, a
breast lift

or a combined treatment of a
breast lift

with a
breast augmentation with implants

,

a
breast augmentation with autologous fat

, or a
hybrid breast augmentation

may be the ideal solution for restoring beautiful breast contours.

Mommy Makeover – when pregnancy leaves significant changes behind


Becoming and being a mother is, without doubt, something truly wonderful. Yet with the arrival of a child, a woman's life is usually turned completely upside down, following entirely different priorities. The same applies to the body after pregnancy and breastfeeding.


Pregnancy leaves its mark. Postnatal exercises, dieting, and sport are often not enough to restore the body to its former shape. The abdomen is no longer as firm and the breasts are no longer as taut. Frequently, the skin has also suffered from the significant fluctuations in weight, which manifests as stretch marks on the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. Other areas of the body may also change, particularly following vaginal births. In such cases, a so-called
Mommy Makeover

is the right treatment to help you regain your shape.


Many women do not wish to simply accept these post-birth changes. When the skin of the abdomen has been significantly stretched – as is often the case after twin pregnancies or multiple pregnancies – many women desire a
tummy tuck

. In many cases, a
tummy tuck

is combined with
liposuction

in the hip area. Dissatisfaction with the breasts is equally common, as they undergo particular changes due to weight fluctuations and breastfeeding. Here, a
breast lift

or a combined treatment of a

may be the ideal solution for restoring a beautiful breast contour.

What does Mommy Makeover mean?


Mommy Makeover

is a trend originating from America that has now attracted considerable interest in Germany as well.
Mommy Makeover

is a
combination of different aesthetic treatments

designed to address and optimise the effects and changes you experienced during your pregnancy and breastfeeding period. A Mommy Makeover is most beneficial once your family planning is complete, as a subsequent pregnancy would alter the beautiful results achieved.


Depending on personal perception and the changes to the body,
different areas of the body

can be optimised

What does a Mommy Makeover cost?


The
Mommy Makeover costs

depend on the treatments carried out. If only a
tummy tuck

is performed, the Mommy Makeover price will be lower than if a
breast lift

or
liposuction

(
fat removal

) is also included. We can provide you with an individual cost plan for your personal Mommy Makeover following a
consultation

, once we have discussed your wishes and expectations in detail. The Mommy Makeover costs include the operation, anaesthesia, the surgical team, any overnight stay costs, and follow-up cost insurance.

Which treatments are part of a Mommy Makeover?


You should first ask yourself what goal you wish to achieve with a Mommy Makeover. How significant is your personal concern? With a
Mommy Makeover

, different
aesthetic surgeries can be performed individually

or
as combined treatments

to eliminate the visible signs of pregnancy or significant weight loss. Which areas and body zones are tightened and optimised during the Mommy Makeover depends entirely on the personal wishes of each individual woman. The aim is to restore the body so that you feel comfortable in your own skin once again.

What should I bear in mind before a Mommy Makeover?


At least two weeks before any Mommy Makeover treatment, blood-thinning and anticoagulant medications should be temporarily discontinued, as their blood-thinning effect can cause unwanted post-operative bleeding. You should also significantly reduce or, ideally, completely avoid nicotine and alcohol for two weeks prior to surgery. Please inform me directly at your initial consultation of any allergies or blood clotting disorders.

What should I bear in mind after a Mommy Makeover?


The measures required
after a Mommy Makeover

depend on the treatments performed. Depending on which aesthetic surgeries have been carried out, wearing a compression garment or a supportive bra may be necessary. You should refrain from physical exertion and sport for at least 4 weeks. Surgical scars should be protected from direct sun exposure for at least 6 months. We will discuss all the aftercare measures relevant to your Mommy Makeover in advance of your surgery, so that you can prepare well and enjoy a smooth and comfortable recovery.
