About Mummy Makeover Surgery

Maternity is hard work…but once a young mother has time to look in the mirror again it is when she sometimes realizes that her body has changed. Loss of breast volume and shape after breast-feeding comes as an unpleasant surprise.

Some ladies lose a couple of cup sizes and end up literally with their breasts looking “empty”. After pregnancy tummy tissue has a tendency to weaken. The problem is related to skin, muscle and fascia weakness after being stretched.

Mummy Makeover Surgery After Pregnancy

The typical concerns in postpartum recovery are about continuing being attractive to the partner and about coming back to pre pregnancy body image.

The body looks different with clothes off and patients frequently experience difficulties with fitting into their usual clothes. Some women feel like they have lost part of their femininity and confidence due these changes.

What Is A Mummy Makeover Procedure?

Combinations of tummy tuck, liposuction and breast surgery to restore breast and body shape can be done on the same day.  In addition after giving birth many women would benefit from muscle divarication repair to correct bulging caused by the gap between the muscles.

In cases of severe bulging patient sometimes may benefit from ultrasound prior to surgical planning to check there is no hernia. To restore a youthful shape of the breasts sometimes just tightening the loose skin and breast tissue remodeling can be enough (called a mastopexy), but in many cases combining it with an implant gives the patient the desired volume & replace fullness.

Elena can then talk through the available options, results and after care as well as the operation itself. Following your initial consultation It is normal to have a second consultation, for you to ask any further questions, once you have had time to consider the different surgical options. After the decision is made, we will carefully prepare for your surgery. During this consultation, you will have a fully informed consent form instructing what to do before and after surgery for the best outcome.

What Would My Expected Results Be?

Elena prides herself on taking the time to truly understand a patient’s aims and discussing what result will work best given the patient’s body shape and size. Although good results are expected, the body is not symmetric and almost everyone has some degree of unevenness, which may not be recognized in advance.

You will have at least two consultations with Elena where she ensures that she meets your expectations and she will always try to achieve your desired results. See our Gallery for results.
