The Benefits of Combining Procedures in a Mommy Makeover

You may hear the term "mommy makeover" and wonder what it consists of. There is no standard mommy makeover. It can be one surgery, more than one, non-surgical procedures, or a combination of surgery and non-surgical procedures. After pregnancy, women often deal with excess skin and fat on their belly area, sagging breasts, stretchmarks, and other signs of childbirth and aging on their bodies. Even breastfeeding, weight loss, weight gain, age, and menopause can have an effect on how your body looks.

Common Procedures for a Mommy Makeover

Some of the common procedures people ask for in a mommy makeover include the following:

• Arm lift
• Breast augmentation
• Breast lift
• Breast reduction
• Liposuction
• Thigh lift
• Tummy tuck

Benefits of Combining Procedures

Combining procedures for a mommy makeover has several benefits, including:

• Potential Cost Savings: Plastic surgery comes with added costs, including surgical staff fees and anesthesiology fees. You can save money by combining surgical procedures and paying once instead of incurring separate fees for each procedure you go through.
• Streamlined Recovery: Most plastic surgeries take two to three weeks of recovery. Doing one procedure at a time means more recovery time, which can mean more time off work or more time away from the kids. When you combine the procedures, you have one recovery period instead of two or more.
• Faster Final Results: One procedure may not deliver the results you were looking for. When you combine more than one procedure, you can obtain a more well-rounded result that takes your overall goals into consideration. In other cases, you may need two procedures to obtain a specific look. For example, if you're looking to enhance the size and projection of your breasts, a combination of a breast lift and breast augmentation could be the perfect solution for you. By combining these procedures, you can achieve the desired look in just one session, saving you time and effort compared to undergoing two separate procedures.
