Motherhood is a gift, yet the changes caused in the body by pregnancy and breastfeeding are a concern for many. Especially because it is difficult for most women to stay in shape since it is challenging to find time for exercising and staying fit. This can affect the mental state of the mothers, leading them to feel self-conscious and lose their self-confidence. Mothers should be able to enjoy all the joys of motherhood without worrying about the changes in their bodies.
That is why Arra Aesthetics offers a way for women to restore their pre-pregnancy body: a mommy makeover!
A mommy makeover package is a combination of different cosmetic procedures to restore the shape and appearance of a woman’s body after childbirth to its pre-childbirth appearance. Mommy makeovers enhance and reshape women’s bodies to make them look younger and more attractive.
Pregnancy can lead to breast enlargement, followed by volume loss and sagging post-pregnancy. The abdominal muscles, skin, and tissues stretch during pregnancy, often resulting in stretched muscles and loose skin. Mommy makeover surgery addresses post-pregnancy body changes, focusing on breasts and abdomen for a more proportionate appearance.
The breasts and the abdomen change the most during motherhood. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, the breasts grow larger, increasing a full cup size or more. While returning to their normal appearance, there can be a significant loss in breast volume and visible sagging. Throughout a pregnancy, the abdominal muscles, skin, and tissues stretch to safely accommodate the growing baby. After childbirth, it is unlikely for these layers to return to their taut, pre-pregnancy shape. That is why most mommy makeovers center on breast and abdomen procedures.
At Arra Aesthetics, your mommy makeover may include any combination of the following procedures:
Breast Augmentation: Breast augmentation surgery, also known as “boob job,” is a surgical procedure to enhance the size and shape of breasts. At Arra Aesthetics, depending on the situation and the patient’s choice, breast augmentation can be done through two methods:
Breast Implant
Fat Grafting
Breast Reduction: Breast reduction surgery, also known as “reduction mammoplasty,” is a surgical procedure where excess fat, tissue, and skin from breasts are removed to form proportioned breasts.
Breast Lift: Breast lift surgery, also known as “breast tightening surgery” or “mastopexy,” is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and tightens the breast tissue to change the position of breasts. Breast lift surgery restores the contours and elevation of saggy breasts and gives them a perkier appearance.
Tummy Tuck: A tummy tuck, also known as “abdominoplasty,” is a surgical procedure to improve the shape of the abdomen by removing excess skin and fat. During this procedure, the connective tissue in the abdominal wall is also tightened to maintain a well-toned look.
Liposuction: Liposuction, also known as “lipo,” is a surgical procedure that removes unwanted fat from specific areas of the body. Liposuction removes excess fat and slims and reshapes areas of the body.
Vaginoplasty: Vaginoplasty, also known as “vaginal tightening,” is a surgical procedure that tightens the vagina to improve its appearance and function. A vaginoplasty brings the separated muscles together and removes extra mucosa skin from around the vagina. During a vaginoplasty, some external skin may also be removed for a more aesthetic appearance.
Stretch Mark Reduction: Stretch mark reduction is a non-surgical procedure to reduce the appearance of stretch marks from the body. At Arra Aesthetics, we use the revolutionary RecoSMA laser device to reduce stretch marks. The RecoSMA laser stimulates the skin and encourages the cells to create new and healthy tissue.
Mommy makeover packages can be customized according to the needs and desires of the individual patient and the advice of the surgeon. Many factors are used to determine the different procedures used in the mommy makeover like:
The amount of restoration needed
Number and placement of incisions

The patient must carefully follow all the instructions of the surgeon during the days between the procedures.
The details of each procedure for a mommy makeover can be found on their pages:
The recovery after a mommy makeover depends on the procedures involved in the treatment. After surgical treatments, the patient will have to be monitored for a few hours to ensure that there are no complications. After getting discharged, the patient may have to wear compression garments to maintain any newly formed contours. The surgeon will prescribe pain medications for the patient’s comfort. Based on the procedures performed, specific instructions for recovery may be given to the patient.
The patient must avoid vigorous activities and exercises for at least 4 weeks after the treatment is completed. The patient should diligently attend the follow-up appointments with the surgeon so that the surgeon can monitor the recovery. During the follow-ups, the surgeon can analyze the results and advise the patient accordingly.
Since a mommy makeover consists of different procedures, there are different risks associated with each procedure. Some of the associated risks are:
Changes in sensation
Temporary or permanent numbness in the nipples
Scarring
Poor healing
Fluid accumulation
Bleeding
Undesirable results
At Arra Aesthetics, we focus on the safety of our patients and do our best to ensure that these risks and side effects rarely affect our patients.
