Motherhood changes everything: your priorities, your schedule, and your body. These changes reflect life’s most rewarding role. Still, many women wish to restore the confidence they once felt in their own skin, making a mommy makeover the perfect way to reclaim that sense of self. This is a combination of procedures designed to rejuvenate your body from head to toe. At Flower Mound and Clearfork Plastic Surgery, our board-certified surgeons, Dr. Sanderson and Dr. Braswell, specialize in tailoring each Mommy Makeover to your unique goals.
What’s Included in a Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover isn’t a single procedure; it’s a customized surgical plan that typically combines several body-contouring techniques to help you feel your best again. The most common treatments include:
- Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty): After pregnancy, it’s common to experience stretched skin and weakened abdominal muscles that can’t be corrected through exercise alone. A tummy tuck tightens the core, removes excess skin, and smooths the midsection for a firmer, more sculpted silhouette.
- Breast Lift, Augmentation, or Reduction: Pregnancy and breastfeeding can lead to volume loss, sagging, or enlargement. Whether you’re looking to restore fullness, lift and reshape, or reduce excess volume for a lighter, more comfortable result, Dr. Sanderson and Dr. Braswell tailor each breast procedure to your body’s natural proportions.
- Liposuction: This technique refines and contours stubborn areas resistant to diet and exercise — often the flanks, abdomen, or thighs. It’s the perfect finishing touch to create smoother, more defined curves.
Each of these procedures works together to bring balance, proportion, and renewed confidence to your body.
Recovery and Refinement
Recovering from a Mommy Makeover is an important part of the transformation process, it’s where your body heals, reshapes, and begins to reveal your results.
In the first week, patients typically experience some swelling and tightness as the body adjusts. Most women are up and moving within a day, with light activities becoming easier after about two weeks. By the six-week mark, you’ll start seeing your new contours take shape and can gradually return to your regular routine.
While patience is key, so is proper care. Our team at Flower Mound and Clearfork Plastic Surgery provides detailed post-operative instructions and guidance every step of the way to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal healing.
To enhance your recovery journey, Live Young Wellness Spa offers treatments that are great post-surgery and are designed to complement your procedure and elevate your results:
- Sciton ProFractional Laser treatments can help minimize the appearance of surgical scars by resurfacing and smoothing the skin.
- Microneedling promotes collagen production to improve skin texture and firmness, helping treated areas look refreshed and even.
- Laser Skin Rejuvenation keeps your skin radiant and youthful long after your procedure, maintaining your results and overall glow.
This combination of expert surgical care and advanced medical spa treatments ensures a comprehensive transformation, from healing to long-term confidence.
When to Consider a Mommy Makeover
The best time for a Mommy Makeover is when you’ve finished having children and are at or near your ideal weight. During your private consultation, our surgeons will discuss your goals, evaluate your anatomy, and design a surgical plan specific to your needs.
Rediscover Your Confidence
A Mommy Makeover is more than a physical transformation; it’s a journey back to you. It’s about reclaiming confidence, strength, and self-love in a body that reflects how you feel on the inside. Schedule your consultation at Flower Mound or Clearfork Plastic Surgery and begin your transformation toward confidence because you deserve to love the way you look and feel.
