WHY WOULD SOMEONE GET A
MOMMY MAKEOVER?
Motherhood is a beautiful journey, but it can take a toll on your body. Many women find that diet and exercise alone cannot restore their pre-pregnancy figure. A Mommy Makeover addresses these changes, helping you:
- Restore Breast Volume and Shape: Reverse sagging and volume loss with breast augmentation or lift.
- Tighten Abdominal Muscles: Repair diastasis recti and achieve a flatter abdomen with a tummy tuck.
- Remove Excess Fat: Eliminate stubborn fat deposits with liposuction.
- Address Stretch Marks: Remove stretch marks located on the lower abdomen.
As the mom of two girls, Dr. Aycock understands the unique challenges of motherhood and is committed to helping you regain your confidence. She goes out of her way to provide an easier and faster recovery that you can manage with young children.

HOW IS A MOMMY MAKEOVER PERFORMED?
A Mommy Makeover is a personalized surgical plan, tailored to your specific needs and goals. During your consultation, Dr. Aycock will assess your areas of concern and discuss the most appropriate procedures.
Often, this will include breast surgery to address size changes and sagging. Depending on your situation, this could involve a breast augmentation, breast lift, or even a breast reduction. To target stretched abdominal muscles and extra skin that won’t go away, or the annoying “C-section shelf” a tummy tuck with diastasis repair is often performed. Additionally, liposuction can smooth out lumps and bumps around your muffin top or bra line, creating a more contoured silhouette. For those with post pregnancy enlargement of labia in the vaginal area, a labiaplasty can restore comfort and appearance.
Dr. Aycock prioritizes your safety and comfort throughout the entire process. She will explain the surgical techniques, potential risks, and expected outcomes, ensuring you are well-informed. Post-operative care instructions will be provided to support your healing and recovery.
Candidates for
MOMMY MAKEOVER
Good candidates for a Mommy Makeover are women who are looking to restore their pre-pregnancy body and address the combined effects of childbirth. It’s essential to be in good overall health and to have a clear understanding of the procedures involved, including breast surgery, tummy tuck, and liposuction, and their potential outcomes. Furthermore, it’s important to recognize that a Mommy Makeover often involves multiple procedures performed in a single surgical session, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle post-surgery is crucial for long-term satisfaction.

Mommy Makeover Timing & Other Concerns
Many moms worry about how their past surgeries or future plans might affect a Mommy Makeover. Rest assured, a previous C-section or hysterectomy won’t complicate your results. In fact, we can often improve the area, smoothing out any lingering scars or excess skin. We understand you might also be concerned about future pregnancies. While it’s possible to have more children after a Mommy Makeover, especially a tummy tuck, it’s best to wait until your family is complete. This helps ensure you get the most lasting results and avoid needing further revisions.
Timing after your last child is also important. Ideally, it’s best to wait about a year after giving birth before considering a Mommy Makeover. This allows your body to stabilize and recover. It’s also crucial to be finished breastfeeding at least 6 months before a breast surgery. And remember, it’s never too late! Even if your children are grown, a Mommy Makeover can help you reclaim your pre-pregnancy figure and confidence.
We know scars can be a big worry too. Yes, there will be some scarring, but we’re committed to minimizing them. Dr. Aycock uses careful techniques, and we’ll guide you on how to best care for your incisions afterward. Our goal is to make any scars as fine and discreet as possible, so you can feel confident and happy with your new look.
