A mommy makeover is a tailored procedure designed to address a range of aesthetic concerns that may arise after childbirth. Its appeal lies in the individualized approach, as each makeover is customized to fit the unique needs of the patient. To help you achieve your goals, we provide a variety of procedures targeting issues such as excess skin and fat, separated abdominal muscles, and changes in breast or buttock volume.
Tummy Tuck:
This procedure removes excess skin and tightens the abdominal area, effectively addressing loose skin and stretch marks resulting from pregnancy. We offer both full and mini tummy tuck procedures depending on the amount of excess skin that needs to be removed. Tummy tuck surgery can also address muscle separation, otherwise known as diastasis recti, that commonly occurs after carrying children.

Liposuction:
Targeting stubborn fat deposits, liposuction uses a thin tube to remove fat from areas like the abdomen and thighs, enhancing body contours for a sculpted appearance. While liposuction can’t address loose skin, it can be combined with tummy tuck for beautifully sculpted results. Liposuction can be used to target the back, bra fat, love handles, bat wings, and more.

Labiaplasty:
Labiaplasty, otherwise referred to as vaginal rejuvenation, is often sought out by women after having children. By reshaping the inner and outer labia, our labiaplasty surgeons can enhance the appearance of the vagina and help patients achieve a heightened sense of self-confidence.

Breast Augmentation:
For those looking to enhance breast size and shape after childbirth, augmentation can restore volume lost through weight fluctuations and breastfeeding. For women who have experienced changes in their breasts, augmentation can restore volume and fullness, providing a more balanced and youthful appearance. This procedure involves the placement of breast implants, which can be customized to achieve the desired size and shape.

Breast Lift:
Aimed at restoring youthful shape, a breast lift corrects sagging and can also improve areola size and shape after pregnancy and breastfeeding. Breast lift surgery positions the breasts higher on the chest, improving posture, preventing skin irritation, and improving breast symmetry.
Breast Lift
Breast Reduction:
This option is ideal for women with oversized breasts, removing excess tissue to create a more manageable size and alleviate discomfort. Overly large breasts may be more painful after pregnancy due to weight and skin elasticity changes from pregnancy hormones and breast feeding. Many patients consider breast reduction after childbirth.

The ideal candidate for mommy makeover surgery is in good general health and does not plan to have more patients. Mommy makeover helps patients restore their appearance following the changes to the body that come with pregnancy. Contrary to popular belief, patients opting for mommy makeover surgery do not need to be mothers. Rather, mommy makeover is also ideal for patients who have lost a significant amount of weight, either naturally or through weight loss surgery. It is important for patients to have realistic expectations surrounding the results of their procedure. Although mommy makeover can help patients appear thinner or more toned, it is not a weight loss procedure. During your consultation, Dr. Killingsworth will assess your treatment areas and review your health and medical history to determine if you are a candidate.
