Mommy Makeover

in Manhattan

The process of bearing children is a unique and special part of a woman’s life, bringing great joy. The time a woman carries, births, and nurses her child or children impacts and changes her body in many ways. Some of these changes are unwanted, including lost breast volume and youthful elasticity, new stretch marks, sagging skin in the tummy, and others. Some women feel less confident or wish to restore aspects of their feminine appeal.

Dr. Espinoza provides a mommy makeover procedure to renew your physique and rejuvenate your pre-pregnancy figure, helping to boost your self-esteem and feminine confidence.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

A mommy makeover is a combination of surgical procedures performed during one surgical session that renews and enhances the female figure. The goal of a mommy makeover is to achieve renewed confidence and peace with your beautiful figure as a mother.

Each mommy makeover procedure is personalized to suit the patient’s unique needs and goals. A mommy makeover generally consists of two or three procedures that focus on the breasts, abdomen, sagging skin and unwanted fat pockets, or other concerns, such as a prominent C-section scar or enlarged labia. The details of your procedure and desired areas for enhancement are determined during your consultation.

What is the average cost of a mommy makeover?

Because every mommy makeover is completely customized to the needs of each patient, the cost is variable. Dr. Espinoza will have a thoughtful consultation with you to understand your concerns about your figure and to determine which procedures are needed to achieve your aesthetic goals. He will then create a tailor-made surgical plan for you, which will include the exact price for your mommy makeover.

What are the Benefits of a Mommy Makeover?

A mommy makeover provides the significant benefit of having all desired surgeries performed during one surgical session under one period of anesthesia. The result is a significant overall enhancement that requires only one period of recovery. 

A mommy makeover provides a range of benefits that vary from woman to woman based on the procedures they choose. Benefits generally include the following:

  • A revitalized, appealing, and feminine figure
  • Shapely and beautiful breasts
  • Youthful breast appearance and symmetry
  • A tighter, flat abdominal area
  • A more toned, lifted, slim physique
  • Less total time under anesthesia
  • One recovery period for multiple procedures (reduced overall downtime)

Mommy Makeover Procedures

A mommy makeover generally includes two or more of the following surgeries:

Breast
Augmentation

Breast augmentation enlarges and enhances the breasts to achieve shapely, youthful volume. Women choose their desired implant type: silicone, saline, or gummy bear. This procedure results in full, appealing, and symmetrical breasts, and can be combined with a lift for a youthful, perky bounce.

Tummy Tuck

Tummy Tuck removes small fat pockets and sagging, loose skin around the abdomen. The area is tightened and contoured to achieve a flat, firm, sculpted appearance. If the abdominal muscles have been weakened or separated due to pregnancy, they are restored and tightened with permanent sutures.

Liposuction

This procedure addresses stubborn fat pockets that appear during or after pregnancy. Liposuction is performed to break up the fat tissues with a cannula, then eliminate the fat cells with gentle suction. This procedure is applied to fat tissues in the abdomen, thighs, arms or other areas that are difficult to reduce with diet and exercise.

Brazilian Butt Lift

The Brazilian Butt Lift, or BBL, provides a plump, attractive boost to the bottom. During this procedure, unwanted fat is removed from another area of the body, such as the abdomen or thighs. This fat is purified and then transferred to the buttocks to lift and plump the butt and achieve a curvy, appealing shape.

Facelift

During a Facelift, the skin is tightened and the underlying tissues are repositioned to achieve plump volume, lift the tissues, and sculpt the jawline, taking years off the appearance.

Rhinoplasty

Also called a nose job, this procedure sculpts the nose to achieve a more symmetrical, even, smooth appearance. This procedure helps achieve facial balance and harmony, drawing attention away from the nose and to the eyes and other features of the face.

Eyelid Surgery

During eyelid surgery, sagging skin on the upper and lower eyelids is tightened and lifted. This resolves circles or bags under the eyes and/or hooded, drooping upper eyelids. The result is a younger, more refreshed appearance.

Recovery After a Mommy Makeover

While the recovery period varies for each woman based on the procedures chosen for her mommy makeover in NYC, you will need at least two to three weeks of downtime to rest and recuperate. During your initial recovery period, arrange to have family or a friend to help with your children, any lifting over five pounds, or any other type of exertion.

You will have pressure bandages to help minimize swelling and to ensure your body heals well in its renewed shapes and contours. You may have drains around the abdominal area if you had a tummy tuck. These will be removed after several days.

In most cases, women are able to return to light, sedentary activities after about two or three weeks. Do not engage in any type of strenuous activity until about six weeks have passed and Dr. Espinoza has given you clearance.
