Motherhood is a meaningful and rewarding experience, but pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding can leave lasting changes to the body that diet and exercise alone may not fully address. Many women seek a Mommy Makeover to restore body contours, improve comfort, and regain confidence in their appearance.
At Wells Plastic Surgery & Skin Care, Mommy Makeover procedures are carefully customized to address each patient’s unique goals while prioritizing safety, balance, and natural-looking results.

What Is A Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover is a personalized combination of surgical procedures designed to restore a woman’s body after pregnancy and childbirth. By combining procedures into a single, coordinated treatment plan, patients can achieve comprehensive results with one recovery period rather than multiple separate surgeries.
Procedures commonly included in a Mommy Makeover may include:
Your surgical plan is tailored to your anatomy, concerns, and long-term goals.
The Mommy Makeover Procedure
- Consultation: Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation to evaluate anatomy, discuss goals, and determine which procedures are most appropriate. A customized surgical plan is created, and recovery expectations are reviewed in detail.
- Surgery: Mommy Makeover procedures are performed under IV sedation in an accredited surgical environment. Addressing multiple areas during one surgical session allows for efficient correction of post-pregnancy concerns.
- Overnight Stay: Some patients return home the same day, while others may require an overnight stay depending on the extent of surgery.
- Post-Operative Care: Our clinical team provides detailed guidance and scheduled follow-up visits throughout recovery to support healing and optimal results.
- Recovery & Activity: Most patients return to non-strenuous work within two to three weeks. Light activity may resume gradually, with unrestricted activity typically allowed after six to eight weeks, depending on healing.
Common Mommy Makeover Procedures
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) tightens the abdominal muscles, removes excess skin and fat, and restores a flatter, firmer midsection. In some cases, liposuction is used to further refine contour. Patients with excess skin limited to the lower abdomen may not require a belly-button incision.
Breast Surgery
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight fluctuations can affect breast size, shape, and position. Breast procedures included in a Mommy Makeover may involve:
- Breast Lift: Restores elevation and youthful contour
- Breast Augmentation: Enhances volume and shape
- Breast Reduction: Improves comfort and proportion
These procedures may be performed alone or in combination, depending on individual needs.
Liposuction
Liposuction targets stubborn fat deposits that may persist after pregnancy, commonly in the waist, hips, thighs, or flanks. It is often used alongside other Mommy Makeover procedures to enhance overall contour.

FAQS
Should I Wait Until I’m Finished Having Children Before Considering A Mommy Makeover?
Yes. To maintain results, it is advised that women wait to have a Mommy Makeover until after they are finished having children. Results like breast elevation and abdominal muscle support could be compromised with additional pregnancies after a Mommy Makeover.
When Can I Have Sex After A Mommy Makeover?
Intimacy should be avoided for at least two weeks or until Dr. Soni-Kalma advises it is safe to resume. Incisions need time to heal, and contact with another person could disrupt the healing process.
