Motherhood is a very special time in the life of many women. Yet at the same time, motherhood can bring some unwelcome, and usually unanticipated, changes to a woman’s body. Pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding take an enormous physical toll on a woman’s body, leading to a variety of unwelcome, and sometimes surprising, changes that often cannot be reversed with diet and exercise.

A Mommy Makeover with Board Certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jacob Bloom at Bloom Plastic Surgery in Chicago, IL can help you rediscover your shapely, naturally-beautiful pre-pregnancy physique. Caring for your family is always going to be your top priority. But taking the time to look sexy and youthful can help you feel more confident while improving your relationship with your partner and your family. In other words, looking your very best can help you be the very best mother you can be!

Mommy Makeover Options

A Mommy Makeover is ideal for women who are not planning additional pregnancies, who are at or near their ideal weight, but who are dissatisfied with multiple aspects of their physique. It is usually composed of a combination of breast and body enhancement procedures, including:

• Breast lift: restores a youthful, perky breast profile by minimizing breast ptosis (sagging), lifting the breast, and if necessary correcting nipple placement;
• Breast augmentation (with or without a breast lift): enhances the size and shape of breasts that have lost volume due to childbirth and breastfeeding, utilizing implants to achieve the correct size for your physique; may be combined with a breast lift to correct ptosis;
• Tummy tuck: targets excess fat around the abdomen, minimizes the appearance of stretch marks and loose, sagging skin, and repairs damaged abdominal muscles to achieve a shapely, well-contoured middle;
• Liposuction: minimizes bulges and unwanted curves due to excess fatty deposits on the waist, abdomen, thighs, buttocks, and flanks, creating a slimmer, more contoured physique

Your Mommy Makeover

The best part about the Mommy Makeover is that it is 100% customized to target your unique problem zones and achieve your unique aesthetic goals. At your initial consultation, Dr. Bloom will conduct a detailed medical examination in order to help you understand the full range of options available to you and the benefits—and risks—of each one. Once your unique surgical plan has been developed, Dr. Bloom will ensure that you understand the procedural details, the potential for surgical complications, and what you can expect during and after your unique procedure.

Timing of Procedure

Timing of your Mommy Makeover is important to maximize your cosmetic result. This procedure is best undertaken after you have finished having children. If cosmetic procedures of the breast are to be planned, it is important that you have stopped breast feeding for several months. The recovery period will include several weeks of weight lifting restrictions so making sure that you have arranged for help in the post operative period. Having someone who can help lift a stroller, carseat, or toddler for a few weeks will help you recover more quickly.
