Bikini Makeover

Mommy makeover refers to a combination of procedures that incorporates rejuvenation of the breast and body to return patients to their pre-pregnancy or younger body. Dr. Farber takes an individual approach towards each patient to first design a unique and aesthetic treatment plan for each patient, then meticulously and artistically puts this plan into action.

Pregnancy can cause many changes in a woman’s body. If you are planning on getting pregnant within the next several years, it might be beneficial to hold off on a mommy makeover procedure. However, if you do not have immediate plans to get pregnant, you can undergo a mommy makeover. These procedures help patients begin to feel better about themselves by regaining their pre-pregnancy bodies.

After having children, your body will undergo many changes to try and regain its pre-pregnancy shape in terms of skin tightening and weight loss. We recommend waiting until your weight and breast size are stable before undergoing a mommy makeover procedure, which usually occurs around six months following pregnancy.

Patients will usually return to normal activities at one to two weeks post-procedure and can resume exercise and all physical activity at six weeks after their procedure.

We will develop an individualized treatment plan based on each patient’s aesthetic goals and desires. We will often combine breast and body procedures to minimize downtime and recovery while improving multiple areas of the body to achieve the best results. After their consultation, our patient care coordinator meets with patients to discuss all aspects of preparing for surgery, costs related to the procedures, and what to expect during the recovery period.

The procedure’s length will vary based on what surgeries you are having.

The best age for a mommy makeover typically depends on individual circumstances rather than a specific age. It’s ideal for women who have completed childbearing and breastfeeding, as these factors can influence the longevity and effectiveness of the results. Many women choose to undergo this procedure in their late 20s to late 40s.

The ideal weight for a mommy makeover depends on the individual, but it is generally a weight the patients can maintain easily and close to one’s ideal body weight. Being at a stable weight that you feel you can maintain will help ensure the results are lasting. Significant weight fluctuations after the surgery can affect the outcomes negatively.

No, 40 is not too old for a mommy makeover. Many women in their 40s and even 50s have successfully undergone mommy makeovers. The most important factors are general health and having realistic expectations about the results.

The number of dress or pant sizes someone might lose after a mommy makeover can vary significantly based on the individual and the specific procedures performed (such as liposuction, tummy tuck, etc.). The goal of the surgery is to contour and tighten, so while weight loss may be minimal, the change in body shape can be quite significant.

Moderate coffee consumption is typically okay up to a certain point before and after surgery, but it’s important to follow specific pre- and post-operative care instructions provided by the surgeon. It is often recommended to avoid caffeine close to the surgery date as it can affect blood pressure and hydration levels.
