Mummy Makeover

The Mummy Makeover is a range of procedures designed to help mothers regain the youthfulness of their breasts, their tummy, their body and their face that’s has been changed with age and the effects of pregnancy and childbirth.

A Mummy Makeover typically treats the following areas:

• Breasts – Breasts lift, Breasts Enhancement, Breast reduction
• Body – Abdominoplasty (Tummy tuck), Liposculpture, Labiaplasty
• Face – Face lift, Neck lift, Fat grafting, Injections to treat wrinkles and expression lines, Dermal fillers

Breasts

When a woman becomes pregnant, her breasts engorge; they get much larger with milk. Whether mums breastfeed or not, there is significant impact on their breasts to the extent where their breasts begin to droop. Also, their breasts become smaller after pregnancy. Hence, the thought process behind re-creating a mum’s breasts following pregnancy is to return her that upper pole fullness that she once enjoyed, or maybe even make it better than it was before. Depending on the individual’s condition, they can be addressed with breast augmentation, breast lift, or a breast reduction.

In addition, it is interesting to note that lifting the breasts also helps to lengthen the torso. As their breasts sag and their tummy fills out, mums look heavier because their trunks become visually shortened. As a result, when the surgery lifts the breasts and brings them up on the chest, the trunk becomes longer and by relative proportions looks much slimmer, be it whether anything is done to the tummy.

Body

There is an array of issues and solutions when it comes to the body contouring part of a Mummy Makeover. For some mums, it may be just excess skin that needs to be removed. Whereas, other mums require a tummy tuck which removes excess skin and fat as well as addresses the layers underneath the skin and fat—the muscles. By stitching together the muscles that were stretched apart during childbearing, mums can achieve a flat tummy. In addition, liposuction, which can address excess fat when there isn’t sagging skin or loose muscles, is another common option used to improve a mum’s tummy after pregnancy

Additionally, many mum experience redundant or hanging labia skin after repeated pregnancies and vaginal deliveries. This might can embarrassment, pain with intercourse, or even friction sores when doing exercise. Labiaplasty can then be performed to remove excess or stretched-out labia minora to create and neater and tidier appearance to the labia area.

Face

Some women also want to rejuvenate their faces at the time of their Mummy Makeover, doing multiple surgeries in one setting. The procedures for facial rejuvenation includes facelift, neck lift, fat grafting, injections to treat expression lines and wrinkles , and dermal fillers. Lifting of the face helps to address the sagging skin and muscles, while fat grafting and dermal fillers aim to restore lose volume due to aging. Facial rejuvenation smoothes out the wrinkles, frown lines, and smile lines which can make a person look old and maybe even perpetually angry.

Sometimes, a combination of procedures will be done in the same setting. For example, having breast surgery done together while a tummy tuck. This combination will typically take longer hours, but it saves expense and recovery time compared to diving it up into two operations at different times.
