Restore Your Radiance After Motherhood

Motherhood is one of life’s greatest joys, bringing delight, pride and profound emotional fulfillment. Being a mom is also hard work, and it can take a steep toll on a woman’s body. Despite a rigorous diet and exercise plan, mothers are often dissatisfied with the way pregnancy and breastfeeding have affected their appearances and desire a cosmetic solution.

The “Mommy Makeover” is the most effective solution for restoring confidence in one’s image postpartum. Through removing excess fat, toning and firming loose skin, and improving the overall shape of the breasts, a Mommy Makeover results in a redefined chest, hips, belly, legs and buttocks.

What Is A Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is the name for a personalized selection of surgical and non-surgical procedures that address common goals for a postpartum woman. These goals include:
  • losing stubborn weight
  • restoring breast volume and position
  • reduction of skin and fat around the belly and legs
  • improving the shape and appearance of the buttocks
  • vaginal rejuvenation.
Oftentimes, your surgeon performs these treatments in a single operation. When combined in this way, patients experience fewer incisions, less scarring and a faster recovery time. This is welcome news for busy ladies on the go! Efficiency is one of the top reasons why so many find Capizzi MD’s mommy makeover to be among the best.

Procedures A Mommy Makeover Can Include

Breast Augmentation

Loss of symmetry, firmness and volume in the breasts can be easily remedied and reversed through the use of implants. Often moms choose Gummy Bear Implants, as these produce a natural, form-stable look that is sustainable over time. These implants allow for a natural appearance as well as the ability to be played up for a more dramatic effect for any occasion. Dr. Capizzi specializes in breast surgery and is Charlotte’s resident augmentation authority.

Breast Lift

Sagging in the breasts is a perfectly normal outcome of giving birth; yet, they don’t have to remain that way . Your surgeon will restore youthfulness and suppleness to the entire chest area.

Tummy Tuck/Drainless Tummy Tuck

Your surgeon will reshape the abdomen, working to eliminate loose, troublesome folds of flesh and fat. They will also tighten weak, separated muscles and reduce evidence of stretch marks.

Liposuction

Liposuction is excellent for removing stubborn clumps of fat from the waistline, buttocks, stomach, arms, back and neck.

diVa Laser Vaginal Tightening & Rejuvenation

During your Mommy Makeover we now can treat and rejuvenate the vaginal wall. This laser treatment from Sciton improves lubrication, tone, and intercourse. There is virtually a 99% improvement with leakage or stress incontinence as well. Child bearing, weight change, aging, and chemotherapy all affect the vaginal lining and tone. This treatment can reduce urinary leaking that occur when working out, laughing, or coughing.

 

Mommy Makeover Recovery

Now by combining these remarkably effective procedures into a single experience, Dr. Capizzi can offer moms fewer incisions, less scarring and a faster recovery time, all of which is great news for busy ladies on the go! This efficiency is one of the top reasons why so many find Dr. Capizzi’s procedure to be among the best.

Quick answers to questions you may have

What procedures are included in a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is customized to your needs and often includes a combination of breast augmentation or lift, tummy tuck, liposuction, and vaginal rejuvenation. Your surgeon will help you create a tailored plan based on your goals and body.

What’s recovery like after a Mommy Makeover?

Because multiple procedures are combined into one operation, recovery is often more efficient—with fewer incisions and a single healing period. Most patients resume light activity within a few days and return to normal routines in a few weeks, depending on the procedures performed.

How do I know if I’m ready for a Mommy Makeover?

The best time for a Mommy Makeover is when you’ve finished having children, are at a stable weight, and have allowed time for your body to recover from pregnancy and breastfeeding. A consultation with Dr. Capizzi will help you determine if you’re a good candidate.

Have questions about breast surgery options?
