typically performed on the breasts, abdomen and waist area. Procedures such as breast lift or augmentation, tummy tuck, and liposuction are often performed together. The aim is to restore the body contours altered during pregnancy to resemble those before childbirth. A customised plan is developed for each patient; procedures can be performed in a single session or in stages.
Why is Maternity Aesthetics (Mommy Makeover) Performed?
During pregnancy and breastfeeding, changes such as an increase in breast volume, sagging, separation of the abdominal muscles, stretch marks and fat accumulation may occur.
These conditions can cause both physical discomfort and aesthetic dissatisfaction. Maternity aesthetics can provide a solution to these multiple problems in a single session.
It helps women regain their post-pregnancy body shape, boost their self-confidence and feel better about themselves.
Who is Eligible for Maternity Aesthetics (Mommy Makeover)?
Individuals who have experienced permanent changes in their body shape after childbirth and have deformities in the abdominal and breast areas may be candidates for this procedure.
It can be safely performed on women who have completed breastfeeding, are close to their ideal weight, and are in good general health.
Effective results can be achieved in individuals who wish to regain breast volume, are bothered by sagging in the abdominal area, or wish to restore waist-to-hip balance.
The recovery process after the procedure must be carefully planned as it involves a combination of treatments. However, it is an ideal choice for mothers seeking a comprehensive and holistic transformation.
Considerations Before and After Mommy Makeover Surgery
Prior to the procedure, a comprehensive examination is conducted. The breasts, abdominal area, and overall body proportions are evaluated together to design a treatment plan tailored specifically to the patient.
Following the operation, swelling, pain, and tenderness may occur for several days. The use of a compression garment, careful attention to resting posture, and adherence to the physician’s instructions significantly support the recovery process.
Although the healing period may vary from person to person, the results are generally long-lasting, natural, and highly satisfying. Body contours become more balanced, firm, and rejuvenated in appearance.
