What is Mommy Makeover Surgery?

Think of a mommy makeover as a personalized TLC package for your bod. Dr. Kapadia combines multiple cosmetic procedures to address common post-pregnancy concerns and help you get back to your pre-pregnancy body shape. It's like a one-stop shop to reclaim your confidence and feel fabulous in your own skin!

A Procedure as Unique as You

The specific techniques used in your mommy makeover surgery will depend on your individual goals. Some popular cosmetic surgery choices that can be combined in a mommy makeover include:

Breast Augmentation

Enhancing your breasts through breast augmentation with breast implants or fat transfer offers a transformative path to achieving the appearance and size you desire. Dr. Kapadia employs cutting-edge techniques tailored to your individual preferences, ensuring a natural outcome. By replenishing lost volume, this procedure grants you the opportunity to attain a fuller bust that aligns with your beauty aspirations.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Sagging or drooping breasts resulting from factors like pregnancy, breastfeeding, or aging can be effectively addressed through a breast lift, known as mastopexy. Dr. Kapadia employs meticulous surgical methods to lift and reshape the breasts, imparting a more youthful and revitalized appearance. Following the procedure, expect firmer and perkier breasts that enhance your silhouette and instill a renewed sense of confidence.

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, aims to firm and sculpt the abdominal region. This comprehensive procedure entails the elimination of surplus skin and fat while restoring weakened or separated abdominal muscles. With Dr. Kapadia's expertise, tummy tuck surgeries are customized to address individual needs and aspirations, culminating in a smoother, more defined abdomen.

Liposuction

Liposuction offers a minimally invasive solution to tackle stubborn fat pockets that resist traditional diet and exercise efforts. Dr. Kapadia employs state-of-the-art techniques to precisely sculpt and refine multiple body regions such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks. The outcome? A trimmer, more defined physique with enhanced body proportions.

Additional Procedures

Other procedures, such as breast reduction or a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), can be incorporated into the mommy makeover to help patients meet their unique goals. 

Abdominoplasty

For some women, cosmetic concerns after pregnancy settle mainly around the midsection. For this group, abdominoplasty (or a “tummy tuck”) may be all that is desired. If your main goal is saying goodbye to loose skin, fat pockets, or lax muscles (diastasis recti) in your abdominal area, a tummy tuck can help restore a taut, toned waistline that enhances your entire silhouette. 

The Perks of Being Pampered

What are the benefits of a Mommy Makeover?

The benefits of a mommy makeover plastic surgery go beyond just aesthetics. Let’s look at some of the ways this transformative procedure can help you love your body again:

  • Confidence Boost: Feeling good in your skin can do wonders for your self-esteem.
  • Comfier Clothes: Rock those outfits you've been eyeing without feeling self-conscious!
  • Renewed Energy: Feeling good about your appearance can translate into a more positive outlook on life.

What to Expect: From Consultation to Transformation

Your Mommy Makeover Procedure

During your consultation for a Mommy Makeover Chicago plastic surgeon, Dr. Kapadia, will discuss your goals, medical history, and any concerns you might have. He'll then recommend the perfect combination of mommy makeover procedures for your unique needs.

The mommy makeover procedures are performed under general anesthesia. Depending on the details of undergoing surgery for your mommy makeover, you might expect to stay overnight in the surgical center. Recovery involves some downtime (think comfy couch and Netflix marathons!). Dr. Kapadia will provide detailed instructions to ensure a smooth healing process and check your recovery progress at post-operative visits.
