Mommy Makeover: Combining Breast + Body Procedures Safely
Posted on September 1, 2025
The term mommy makeover has become popular for a reason: it describes a combination of procedures designed to restore a woman’s body after pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. While the results can be transformative, combining breast and body surgeries requires careful planning to ensure safety and satisfaction. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. David Kim performs mommy makeover for patients in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations.
What a Mommy Makeover Includes
A mommy makeover is not a single procedure, but rather a tailored plan that may include:
- Breast augmentation to restore lost volume
- Breast lift to correct sagging
- Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) to tighten abdominal muscles and remove loose skin
- Liposuction to contour stubborn fat areas
- Other refinements such as labiaplasty or vaginal rejuvenation
Safety in Combining Procedures
While it may sound ambitious to combine multiple surgeries, it’s often safer and more efficient than staging them separately. Patients benefit from a single anesthesia event, a single recovery period, and a more dramatic transformation. However, safety depends on:
- The patient’s overall health and BMI
- The length of surgery (surgeons typically keep it under six hours)
- A carefully selected surgical facility with proper accreditation
- An experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon
Recovery Timeline
Patients typically need two to three weeks off work and at least six weeks before strenuous activity. Compression garments, careful wound care, and follow-up visits are essential for safe healing. While combining procedures means recovery is more intense, many patients find it worthwhile to achieve comprehensive results in one process.
Benefits of a Mommy Makeover
- Restores youthful breast shape and volume
- Flattens and firms the abdomen
- Reduces stubborn fat deposits
- Enhances self-confidence in and out of clothing
- Achieves dramatic results with one surgery and one recovery
A mommy makeover offers safe, transformative results when performed by an experienced surgeon. With personalized planning, women can safely combine breast and body procedures to restore confidence and reclaim their figure.
