WHAT IS A MOMMY MAKEOVER PROCEDURE?

A Mommy Makeover is a cosmetic approach that blends multiple procedures to specifically target the physical changes brought on by having children.

Each makeover is uniquely customized to your body's specific needs and your aesthetic goals, but these often involve a combination of:

Tummy tuck,
Breast augmentation, and
Strategic body contouring.

By carefully addressing loose skin, C-section scars, stretched abdominal muscles, changes in breast shape or volume, and stubborn fat deposits, a Mommy Makeover can renew your shape and help you regain comfort in your body. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Schwartz meticulously crafts each procedure, ensuring results that are natural, harmonious, and personalized for you.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A MOMMY MAKEOVER?

The main benefit of a mommy makeover is the opportunity to make multiple improvements at the same time. A mommy makeover surgery can incorporate several procedures, including:

Improving, lifting, and rejuvenating the breasts
Tightening loose skin
Removing excess skin
Reducing the appearance of stretch marks
Toning and tightening the stomach and abs
Eliminating stubborn fat from multiple body areas
Helping to return your body to its pre-pregnancy look

Overall, many Mommy Makeover patients say the greatest benefit is improved confidence and self-image.

HOW IS A MOMMY MAKEOVER PERFORMED?

During your personalized consultation, Dr. Schwartz takes the time to thoughtfully evaluate your concerns, understand your aesthetic goals, and thoroughly discuss the changes you've experienced. Bringing photos from before pregnancy can be helpful for visualizing the transformation and clearly identifying areas to focus on.

Dr. Schwartz will conduct a careful, comprehensive examination — taking a 360-degree view — to develop recommendations tailored specifically for you. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, he'll thoughtfully suggest the optimal combination of procedures to achieve results that feel natural and meet your personal objectives.

WHAT CAN BE INCLUDED IN A MOMMY MAKEOVER?

A mommy makeover can include a number of different plastic surgery techniques.

Signature Breast Procedures (Breast Augmentation, Breast Lift, Breast Reduction, Fat Transfer):

The breasts undergo significant changes during pregnancy and breastfeeding. They enlarge and engorge, sometimes triple or quadruple the size before pregnancy. A lot of women can feed better from one breast vs the other, which can lead to asymmetries. Nipples and areolas can become stretched and elongated.

Most breast surgeries are aimed at lifting the breasts, correcting any volume deficiencies, and tightening stretched-out skin. Many women will require a breast lift or Mastopexy for breast sagging, known as breast ptosis. Breast reduction surgery can also apply.

A lot of women seek out Dr. Schwartz for his Signature Breast Lipolift®, which is a minimally invasive procedure that can:

Tighten skin around the breasts
Reshape the breasts
Reduce the size of the breasts, if necessary
Correct postpartum deflation

Signature Tummy Tuck:

During pregnancy, the abdomen stretches to accommodate your growing child. The external skin expands, which can cause thinning, stretch marks, and excess skin. Internally, the connective tissue covering your muscles and abdomen, known as fascia, also stretches.

Once the connective tissue stretches, it does not go back to its previous tightness. This laxity is known as Rectus Diastasis, which means separation of the rectus or six-pack muscles.

A Signature Tummy Tuck procedure is designed to:

Tighten the stomach internally and externally
Reshape the sides of the body
Flatten the belly and waist

Signature Nipple Surgery:

Most women know that breastfeeding not only takes a toll on the breast but also on the nipples. Dr. Schwartz is an expert at Signature Nipple Reduction Surgery as well as inverted nipple correction. Either of these may be combined with any other procedures or can be performed in the office by themselves.

Signature Brazilian Butt Lift:

Hormonal changes, as well as weight fluctuations, can lead to fat staying in unwanted areas and the areas of previous “curves” deflated. Many women take advantage of the excess, unwanted fat to transfer it to their buttocks and hips as part of a Signature Brazilian butt lift.

HOW MUCH DOES A MOMMY MAKEOVER COST?

Mommy Makeovers don’t come with a fixed price; each one is unique. The cost depends largely on:

Which procedures you choose – Whether it's a tummy tuck, breast lift/augmentation, liposuction, or more, every procedure adds to the total.
Facility & anesthesia costs – Operating room fees, anesthesiologist charges, and related services vary depending on where your surgery takes place.
Implants and supplies – If breast implants are part of your plan, those costs will also apply.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AFTER A MOMMY MAKEOVER?

After surgery, you will start your recovery at home with rest and proper aftercare.

Early recovery (first 1–2 weeks)

Dr Schwartz recommends a recovery facility for 1-2 nights. He also recommends an active recovery where you will be up and walking around a lot. Simple movements and short walks promote circulation, but lifting anything over 10 lbs (think laundry, kids, groceries) is off-limits. Dr. Schwartz will guide you through incision care and wearing compression garments to support healing and reduce swelling.

Weeks 2–4: Gradual return to routine

By week two, swelling eases, and many patients feel well enough to return to light, non-physical work and daily errands. Comfort in a seat belt or light outings by week three is common. Gentle activity like walking and light housework is safe and encouraged, but you'll need to hold off on heavy lifting and core exercises.

Weeks 4–6: Back to normal life

Around week four, your energy climbs, swelling drops, and you can often resume light workouts like gentle cardio or yoga. Between weeks 5–6, you may reintroduce more activity under Dr. Schwartz’s guidance like moderate workouts and lifting up to about 10 lbs. Most breast/tummy recovery is well underway by then.

Weeks 6+ : Nearing full strength

By six weeks, many patients return to most regular activities, including more vigorous exercise. Ongoing swelling or slight tightness may linger for months, but your results are becoming visible and the new shape will continue settling through month six to a year..

AM I A CANDIDATE FOR A MOMMY MAKEOVER?

Ideal candidates for a mommy makeover procedure are individuals who have gone through pregnancy and childbirth and have worked to achieve a slimmer, tighter figure through a consistent, healthy lifestyle but haven't achieved their desired results.

In many post-pregnancy cases, plastic surgery is recommended to attain a figure close to their pre-pregnancy body. Suppose you have worked hard but are still disappointed with sagging breasts, separated abdominal muscles, or unwanted fat in the lower back, flanks, and buttocks. In that case, a mommy makeover procedure could be perfect for you.

Dr. Schwartz's goal is to help you reclaim something close to your pre-pregnancy shape so you can get back to living life without the additional concern about your body.

MOMMY MAKEOVER FAQS

Should I wait until I’m done having kids, and what if I get pregnant again?

For the best long-term results, it’s best to consider a Mommy Makeover when you believe you’re finished having children.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding after a makeover won’t harm you, but they can re-stretch your tummy or cause new breast changes, which might compromise some of your beautiful results. Think of it this way: the surgical improvements (like tightened muscles or lifted breasts) are meant to be long-lasting or even permanent.

For example, once fat cells are removed by liposuction or excess skin by a tummy tuck, they’re gone for good. However, future pregnancies or major weight fluctuations could introduce new sagging or stretch marks, meaning you might desire a revision or touch-up afterward.

That said, life can be full of surprises! If you do become pregnant down the line, don’t worry: You and the baby should be perfectly safe.

After you finish breastfeeding and your body settles, you can always return to Dr. Schwartz to discuss options for maintaining or restoring your figure. In the meantime, we’ll equip you with guidance on fitness and skincare to help preserve your results. With healthy habits, you can expect your Mommy Makeover improvements to last a long time.

Will there be noticeable scarring?

It’s completely natural to worry about scars. Every surgical procedure does leave some scars, but one of Dr. Schwartz’s top priorities is making them as small and hidden as possible.

The incisions for a Mommy Makeover are strategically placed. For example, tummy tuck incisions sit low on the bikini line, and breast lift scars can often be tucked around the areola or under the breast fold, so they’re usually concealed by underwear or swimsuits as they heal.

Additionally, Dr. Schwartz has a unique protocol called Schwartz Scar Secure™ specifically to minimize scarring. He has done extensive research on wound healing (even serving as a lead investigator in an FDA trial on scar treatments) and applies those findings to your care. This means he’ll use the most advanced techniques and aftercare, from precise suturing methods to medical-grade scar therapy.

Will my mommy makeover results look natural?

Absolutely. The goal of a Mommy Makeover is to help you look and feel like yourself again, not like someone else.

Dr. Schwartz prides himself on creating natural-looking enhancements that fit your body and style. A skilled plastic surgeon’s approach is to enhance your features in a balanced way, so the outcome feels harmonious.

Your post-surgery silhouette will be proportional and flattering: just a more rejuvenated, confident version of you.

How will a Mommy Makeover affect my confidence and everyday life?

A Mommy Makeover often brings life-changing improvements not just to your body, but to your confidence and overall well-being.

Many of our patients say they finally feel like themselves again after surgery: Comfortable in clothes they used to avoid, eager to hit the beach or pool without cover-ups, and generally more positive about their bodies.

Women feel overwhelmingly better in their own skin and are excited to show off their rejuvenated figures. This renewed confidence can spill into other areas of life. You might find you stand a little taller, smile more, and feel empowered to tackle personal and professional goals with new energy.

Emotionally, it can be very uplifting: after dedicating so much of yourself to your children and family, doing something for you can restore a sense of balance and self-care.

It’s not just about looking younger or fitter. it’s about feeling happier, more feminine, and more at home in your body. That empowerment and joy you feel when you look in the mirror often translates to a happier daily life, whether it’s enjoying date night without self-consciousness or simply feeling at peace when getting dressed in the morning.
