What Exactly Is Included in a “Mommy Makeover” or Full Body Makeover?

Whether your body has changed due to pregnancy, weight fluctuations, aging, or simply time, a Mommy Makeover (also called a full-body makeover) offers a highly customizable set of procedures designed to restore your shape, confidence, and body harmony.

‍

At Beautologie Cosmetic Surgery & Medical Aesthetics, we specialize in tailoring your makeover to your unique anatomy, lifestyle, and goals—not a one-size-fits-all template. This guide walks you through everything that may be included, what each procedure does, who’s a candidate, and what to expect.

‍

What Is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is a combination of surgical procedures meant to rejuvenate breast and body areas affected by pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight changes, or aging.
‍

Typical components include:

• Breast enhancement (augmentation, lift, reduction)
  
• Abdominal contouring (tummy tuck)
  
• Fat reduction (liposuction)
  
• Buttock contouring (BBL or sculpting)
  
• Vaginal rejuvenation (optional)
  
• Skin tightening (optional)
  

‍

Think of it as a personalized menu—your surgeon helps you choose the options that give you the most natural, beautiful, balanced results.

‍

Why It’s Called a “Full Body Makeover”

Although most patients focus on breasts and the abdomen, many choose to reshape their waistline, flanks, thighs, bra rolls, or buttock region as well.

‍
A Mommy Makeover:

• Restores shape
  
• Improves posture and comfort
  
• Enhances wardrobe fit
  
• Boosts body confidence
  

‍

Core Procedures Included in a Mommy Makeover

1. Breast Rejuvenation

Pregnancy and breastfeeding may lead to volume loss, stretching, deflation, sagging, or asymmetry. A Mommy Makeover typically includes one of the following:

‍

Breast Augmentation

• Restores lost volume using implants
  
• Improves shape and symmetry
  
• Provides fuller cleavage
  

‍

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

• Removes excess skin
  
• Raises the breasts to a more youthful position
  
• Reshapes the breast mound
  

‍

Augmentation + Lift

• Combines implants with a lift
  
• Ideal when breasts are both deflated and droopy
  

‍

Breast Reduction

• Reduces size
  
• Relieves back/neck pain
  
• Increases comfort and clothing options
  

‍

Almost all breast procedures preserve sensation, and many preserve the ability to breastfeed in future pregnancies (though individual results vary).

‍

2. Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

For most patients, the tummy tuck is the cornerstone procedure of a Mommy Makeover.

‍

A Beautologie tummy tuck typically includes:

• Removal of excess abdominal skin
  
• Tightening of stretched muscles (diastasis repair)
  
• Repositioning of the belly button
  
• Liposuction around the waist for a sculpted hourglass appearance
  

‍

This procedure treats:

• Loose or hanging skin
  
• Stubborn belly fat
  
• “Mom pooch”
  
• Separated abdominal muscles
  

‍

Results often mean improved core strength and posture, not just a cosmetic improvement.

‍

3. Liposuction (Precision Body Sculpting)

Pregnancy changes fat distribution, often leaving pockets that resist diet and exercise.

‍

Liposuction can be added to:

• Waist and flanks (“love handles”)
  
• Hips
  
• Bra rolls
  
• Back
  
• Thighs
  
• Arms
  
• Under the chin
  

‍

Key benefit: Liposuction sculpts your silhouette, bringing better proportion to breasts and abdomen.

‍

4. Buttock Enhancement (BBL or Sculptra)

Many full-body makeover patients want:

• A more sculpted waist-to-hip ratio
  
• Better definition and projection
  

‍

Options include:

• Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) — transferring fat from other areas into the buttocks
  
• Sculptra® Injections — stimulates collagen for natural enhancement (non-surgical)
  

‍

5. Skin Rejuvenation Add-Ons

Although not surgical, many patients choose skin treatments to maximize overall transformation:

• CO₂ resurfacing
  
• IPL Photofacial
  
• Skin tightening
  
• Stretch mark reduction
  

‍

Key Takeaways

• A Mommy Makeover is customized, not cookie-cutter.
  
• Core components: breast surgery, tummy tuck, and liposuction.
  
• Optional additions: buttock enhancement, thighplasty, skin tightening.
  
• Results combine aesthetic and functional benefits.
  
• Designed to restore balance, confidence, and body harmony.
  

‍

Are You a Good Candidate?

You may be an excellent candidate if you:

• Are close to your goal weight
  
• Are done having children or don't plan future pregnancies
  
• Are in good overall health
  
• Have realistic expectations
  
• Prefer a single recovery period over multiple surgeries
  

‍

Recovery and Downtime

Most Mommy Makeover recoveries include:

• 1–2 weeks off work
  
• Light activities at home
  
• No strenuous exercise for 4–6 weeks
  
• Compression garments
  
• Follow-up appointments to ensure safe healing
  

‍
