MMO - Mommy Makeover

The birth of a baby is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful periods in a woman's life. Although a child brings spiritual fulfilment to the family, it can sometimes reduce a woman's confidence in her body. It is natural that the changes in a woman's body that take place during pregnancy can remain even after childbirth. In some cases, it is not possible to recover the lost forms either by dieting or active sports. "Mommy Makeover" is complex plastic surgery, usually correcting the abdomen and chest, buttocks, as well as genitals or other unsatisfactory body parts. The main MMOs include:

- Breast augmentation

- Breast lift

- Buttock augmentation

- Plastic labia

- Liposuction

- Abdominoplasty

Who can have Mommy Makeover surgery?

"MMO" operations are usually performed on women who have given birth to several babies or have carried more than one baby during one pregnancy, but there are cases when the operation is required already after the first pregnancy. In this case, you should evaluate whether you plan to have more children in the future. The operation can also be performed on women who have not given birth but have lost a lot of weight.

How to prepare for Mommy Makeover surgery?

General health status

For better results, it is recommended to be in good physical health before surgery. During the consultation, inform the doctor about your disease and the medications you are taking.

Body mass index

MMO surgery should not be considered weight loss surgery and is recommended only after reaching your ideal and stable weight. BMI should not exceed more than 30.

Breastfeeding

After breastfeeding, it is recommended to wait at least 6 months until your hormonal activity normalizes, your weight becomes stable, and your body recovers from the stress experienced.

Smoking

It is recommended to give up this bad habit for at least 3 weeks before and after surgery, as it can cause blood clotting problems during surgery.

How is Mommy Makeover surgery performed?

Chest

Hormonal changes during pregnancy and breastfeeding can cause your breasts to grow several sizes, especially if you are expecting your first child. After breastfeeding, the enlarged mammary glands shrink to almost the same size as before pregnancy, but the skin and ligaments of the breast do not return to their original position. During MMO, the breast can be lifted and/or enlarged with implants. If a woman is not satisfied with excessively large breast size, they can be reduced and lifted.

Belly

During pregnancy, as the fetus grows, the placenta increases and the abdominal muscles stretch. Abdominal muscle separation (diastasis) is considered a normal phenomenon, especially in the last trimester of pregnancy, but it often happens that muscle diastasis persists even after pregnancy. For this reason, many women complain of a protruding belly, which sports cannot get rid of. In this case, it is necessary to suture the muscle diastasis. In the case of abdominal correction, one of the possible operations is selected: full plastic surgery, mini-abdominoplasty (diastasis correction is also performed in the latter two cases) or abdominal liposuction.

Other changes

After a woman gains weight and loses it after pregnancy, excess skin can remain not only on the chest, abdomen but also on the thighs and arms. Although not as common as abdominal and breast surgeries, other body-shaping or reconstructive surgeries, such as buttock augmentation, labiaplasty, can be performed if necessary.

Postoperative care

Healing period

There is no need to remove sutures after MMO. The wounds should be protected, so you will be able to shower only 3-4 days after the operation. Pain in the incision sites is felt in the early postoperative period, and drugs are prescribed to relieve it. Swelling, bruising, loss of sensation can be felt for several weeks after the operation. You will need to wear a compression garment for 6-8 weeks.

Scars

This is one of the relevant aspects for women planning any type of surgery. Over time, depending on the body, the scars become less and less noticeable, but they do not disappear completely. But this, compared to the increased self-confidence, is only a minor inconvenience.

Physical activity

In order to avoid complications, it is recommended not to lift heavy (5 or more kg) for at least 3 months, avoid active physical activity, sports.
