Benefits of a Mommy Makeover

A mommy makeover provides both aesthetic and emotional benefits, helping restore self-confidence and body harmony. Benefits may include:

  • Flatter, firmer abdominal contour
  • Lifted, reshaped, and fuller breasts
  • Removal of stubborn fat deposits
  • Improved body proportions and youthful curves
  • Renewed confidence in clothing, swimwear, and daily life

Am I a Good Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?

Ideal candidates for a mommy makeover in Charlotte are healthy women who have completed their pregnancies, finished breastfeeding, and reached or are close to their pre-pregnancy weight. You may be a candidate if you experience loose skin, stretched abdominal muscles, volume loss or sagging breasts, or localized fat that does not respond to diet and exercise. Dr. Beck will evaluate your health, goals, and medical history to determine the best plan for you.

What to Expect During a Mommy Makeover

A mommy makeover may include one or more procedures performed in a single session. Surgery is performed under anesthesia at an accredited facility. The duration and techniques will vary depending on your surgical plan, which may include breast enhancement, tummy tuck, liposuction, or additional refinements. Dr. Beck’s approach focuses on achieving natural, harmonious improvements while minimizing downtime.

Mommy Makeover Recovery and Results

Recovery varies depending on the number and type of procedures performed. Most patients require about two weeks of downtime before resuming light activity. Swelling and bruising gradually subside, with results becoming more apparent over several weeks. Full healing may take several months, during which your body contours refine to reveal a firmer abdomen, lifted breasts, and improved proportions. With ongoing healthy habits, results are long-lasting.

Procedures Commonly Included in a Mommy Makeover

  • Breast Lift: Restores youthful firmness and repositions the breasts and nipples.
  • Breast Augmentation: Replenishes volume lost after pregnancy and breastfeeding.
  • Tummy Tuck: Tightens abdominal muscles and removes excess skin and fat for a smoother, flatter profile.
  • Liposuction: Eliminates stubborn fat deposits in areas such as the stomach, hips, thighs, and arms.
  • Facial Rejuvenation: Non-surgical treatments such as fillers, BOTOX, or laser skin resurfacing can refresh facial appearance.
