Mommy makeover

At the first visit, Dr. Mir will perform a general health check-up and ask you questions about your medical history to corroborate that the treatment is possible and that there are no major risks. He will also check the condition of your breasts, abdomen and thighs to determine the degree of firmness lost and the amount of fat and excess skin to be removed. He or she will also want to know what your expectations are for the results after the procedure.

You should inform the doctor if you have any medication allergies, major medical conditions, if you take any medications or supplements, and if you are a smoker.

During the consultation, you will be informed about the operation, the type of anaesthesia used, the hospitalisation after surgery and the price of the Mommy Makeover operation.

The Mommy Makeover is a tailor-made treatment that combines mammoplasty, liposuction or liposculpture and abdominoplasty. The design and planning of this procedure varies according to the needs and goals of each woman.

Mammoplasty is fully customised to each woman’s breasts. This may require a breast augmentation with implants or fat, a breast reduction, or simply a breast lift that allows you to reposition your breasts in their natural position and regain their firmness.
Liposuction or liposculpture will depend on the areas to be treated. Some women only accumulate fat in the abdomen, while others also have fat in the back, thighs, hips and buttocks. For the latter, liposculpture may be the most appropriate. In other words, a remodelling of the body contour, thanks to which it is possible to achieve a more athletic and slender figure.

Finally, abdominoplasty is a surgery capable of correcting diastasis and improving the firmness of the abdomen. After pregnancy, the rectus abdominis separates, in many cases causing diastasis. Abdominoplasty consists of repairing these muscles and restoring their function and appearance, giving you a flat stomach and a slimmer waist!

Recovery from Mommy Recover can be somewhat longer and more uncomfortable than other operations, as it is not just one surgery, but a combination of several body contouring and breast surgery techniques.

It is recommended to start walking the next day, as it helps to improve blood circulation and reduce swelling after liposuction. It is also advisable to wear a compression garment or compression stockings in the areas where you have undergone liposuction or abdominoplasty.

During the postoperative stage, it is not recommended to consume tobacco or alcohol. These substances could complicate healing and slow down the recovery process. Your surgeon may advise you to take painkillers or anti-inflammatory drugs to alleviate postoperative symptoms.

All surgeries carry risks. In this case, as it is a personalised treatment, the risks may vary depending on the surgeries performed.

It should be borne in mind that two surgeries are often performed at the same time – breast surgery and liposuction or abdominoplasty – which makes recovery more uncomfortable. However, each case is assessed on a case-by-case basis and it is determined whether it is possible to perform both operations in the same procedure. This will depend on the difficulty of each and the hours that need to be allocated to the entire procedure.

However, some of the usual risks are: bleeding, swelling, bruising, fluid accumulation, poor healing, changes in skin sensitivity, and reaction to anaesthesia.
