Mommy Makeover Surgery
Conveniently located to serve San Diego, Oceanside, CA and Carlsbad, CA
A mommy makeover is a procedure for women who want to restore the appearance of their bodies before pregnancy. The whole package usually consists of body contouring and breast enhancements that can bring back your beautiful body. At North Coast Plastic Surgery, under the guidance of Dr. Gregory Park, we are dedicated to providing our patients with excellent results from their mommy makeovers in San Diego.
What Is a Mommy Makeover?
The mommy makeover can consist of a single surgical procedure or a combination of surgeries that enhance the shape and size of the breasts, flatten and tighten the abdomen, and contour various areas of the body, including the face, arms, back, abdomen, hips, and thighs. Each procedure included in your mommy makeover addresses your specific concerns with your body.
Why Women Choose a Mommy Makeover
Being a mother and having kids are significant milestones for many women and indeed bring so much joy to families. However, when they no longer want to get pregnant and have children, they choose to focus on themselves especially as their children grow older.
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and significant weight changes can result in saggy and deflated breasts and sometimes drooping and stretched excess skin on the belly. Our patients have tried all the popular fitness trends or various dieting techniques, but none of these didn’t take out the stubborn fat on their backs, abdomen, hips, or thighs.
So when women choose a mommy makeover, they get the following benefits of the procedure:
- Comprehensive Restoration – targets various aspects of a woman’s post-pregnancy body. This addresses multiple issues simultaneously, saving time and potentially reducing overall recovery periods compared to undergoing individual procedures separately.
- Customized Treatment Plans – this is a highly customizable procedure. This approach ensures that women receive treatments that are best suited to their bodies and preferences.
- Long-lasting Results – typically provide long-lasting results that can endure for many years with proper maintenance and care.
- Potential Health Benefits – may provide associated health benefits. For example, a tummy tuck can improve core strength and stability, potentially alleviating back pain and improving posture.
Dr. Park has tailored his mommy makeover techniques to address any issues and concerns through the following procedures included in the package.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do pregnancy and breastfeeding affect the timing and outcomes of a mommy makeover?
Pregnancy and breastfeeding can impact the procedure’s results. We advise our patients to wait until after breastfeeding and when their bodies stabilize post-pregnancy. They can get better surgical results and minimize the need for revision surgeries due to changes in breast size and abdominal contour.
What considerations should be taken into account when deciding on a Mommy Makeover after weight loss or multiple pregnancies?
Factors like overall health, skin elasticity, and realistic expectations are important to consider. Ideally, patients should be close to their goal weight and have stable health to optimize surgical outcomes and minimize risks.
How do patient age and overall health impact the safety and effectiveness of Mommy Makeover procedures?
Younger patients often have better skin elasticity, while older patients may require additional procedures for optimal results. Good overall health minimizes surgical risks and enhances recovery outcomes.
How long after childbirth should a patient wait before undergoing a Mommy Makeover, and why?
Patients should wait at least six months after childbirth before undergoing a mommy makeover procedure. This allows time for the body to recover and stabilize hormonally. This period can better surgical outcomes and reduce the risk of complications related to fluctuating weight and hormonal changes.
What is the expected recovery process for a Mommy Makeover, and what support is recommended during this time?
The recovery typically takes several weeks, with initial discomfort and swelling gradually improving over time. We encourage patients to have a close support system in place for assistance with daily tasks during the initial recovery period. As well, it’s important to follow Dr. Park’s post-operative instructions and attend follow-up appointments.
What are the long-term maintenance considerations following a Mommy Makeover, and how can results be prolonged?
Dr. Park believes that adopting a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a personalized diet plan is important in order to maintain the results of a mommy makeover. Patients should also avoid significant weight fluctuations to preserve surgical results. It’s also important to address any concerns with him.
