Motherhood is a beautiful thing. However, after having children, many women feel dissatisfied with the changes that pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding bring to their bodies. The mommy makeover is a surgical procedure designed to help women regain more taut, firm, and lifted contours after having children.
Board-certified female plastic surgeon Dr. Dinah Wan understands the unique concerns different women face following pregnancy. She can help you navigate advanced surgical options for reclaiming your sleekest, most uplifted silhouette with a mommy makeover for Prosper, Celina, Frisco, and McKinney tailored to you. Schedule your consultation with Dr. Wan today and discover a higher level of care for North Texas women at Prosper Plastic Surgery.
Each mommy makeover surgery is carefully planned and customized to the patient’s goals, combining multiple techniques to deliver comprehensive results. A typical mommy makeover may incorporate surgical techniques such as a tummy tuck, liposuction, a breast lift, or breast augmentation to help restore the areas affected by pregnancy.
In addition to sculpting away excess fat and loose skin, a tummy tuck can correct diastasis recti, a common condition after pregnancy in which the abdominal muscles separate. Breast surgery can focus on reducing sagging and excess skin, lifting the breasts, and/or augmenting the breasts through the placement of silicone or saline implants to enhance upper pole fullness.

A mommy makeover can help you regain physical comfort and confidence in your postpartum body. With a mommy makeover Prosper, Celina, Frisco, and McKinney patients can expect benefits to include:
Restored breast position and volume: A breast lift (mastopexy) can reduce excess, sagging skin, elevate downward-pointing nipples, and create a more rounded breast shape while elevating the breasts to a more youthful position on the chest wall. Breast augmentation with implants can be incorporated to provide a fuller bust line.
A taut and toned abdomen: A tummy tuck reduces lax, excess skin in the abdominal area, which exercise and diet alone cannot eliminate. Tightening the abdominal muscles corrects any muscle laxity caused by pregnancy, called diastasis recti.
Reduction of stubborn fat pockets: Liposuction can be incorporated into a tummy tuck to sculpt away lingering fat pockets in the midsection for more sleek contours.
Personalized results: Dr. Wan collaborates with each patient to design a mommy makeover surgery that helps her reach her individual goals.
A shorter overall recovery time: By combining procedures, the mommy makeover eliminates the need for separate recovery.

The details of each mommy makeover are tailored to the individual and will be determined through close collaboration with Dr. Wan. You will be under general anesthesia during this comprehensive procedure, which is typically performed on an outpatient basis. With every mommy makeover McKinney & Frisco patients may have incorporated in their program one or more of the following surgical steps:
A tummy tuck may be performed to remove excess, sagging skin for a sleeker, flatter abdominal profile. The abdominal muscles are typically tightened during a tummy tuck to correct diastasis recti, or separation of the abdominal muscles— a condition often resulting from pregnancy.
Liposuction may be incorporated to sculpt away stubborn excess fat in areas like the abdomen and flanks (“love handles”).
A breast lift elevates and reshapes the breasts, reducing sagging and helping to create a more shapely, rounded breast shape. This may include repositioning low or downward-facing nipples higher on the breasts.
Breast augmentation with breast implants may be incorporated to boost volume and create more shapely breasts that enhance your silhouette.
After surgery, you will be carefully monitored in our recovery area to ensure your comfort and safety before being allowed to return home in the company of a trusted adult.
Most women take about two weeks off from work following a mommy makeover. It’s important to have extra support around the house during this time, as activity levels will be limited. For example, patients will not be able to do any lifting, which means extra help is especially important for those with young children. Dr. Wan will check your healing at multiple post-operative visits. Ensure you follow all provided instructions regarding incision care, activity restrictions, and post-procedure swelling and discomfort management, and never hesitate to reach out with questions.
After a mommy makeover, many women feel a boost in self-confidence and enjoy a more positive relationship with their bodies. Feeling more comfortable in your body can enhance all areas of life, including your personal relationships and professional endeavors. Correcting physical changes resulting from pregnancy and childbirth can also alleviate discomfort associated with issues such as excess abdominal skin or sagging breasts. While individual results may vary, the results of a mommy makeover can be long-lasting. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, will help you enjoy your revitalized physique for many years.
