Mummy
Makeover
Mummy Makeover
A mummy makeover is a comprehensive, custom-tailored suite of procedures designed to address the physical changes experienced post-pregnancy, helping to restore confidence and comfort in your own skin.
This approach includes a combination of surgical procedures, each selected based on individual needs and aesthetic goals.
Mummy makeover includes a tummy tuck, breast augmentation, breast lift, liposuction and vaginal rejuvenation surgery, in any combination. Together, they form a comprehensive approach to addressing the physical changes of motherhood. While some choose to go through with only a few of them, others combine them all.
Post-pregnancy, you will see changes in breast size, shape and volume. Restoring and enhancing them through breast surgery can include breast lift or augmentation, or a combination of both, depending on individual needs.
The abdominal muscles that may have separated during pregnancy can be tightened with a tummy tuck where excess skin is also removed. Offering a firmer, flatter and more toned appearance, it can reinstate the confidence in your body’s silhouette.
Liposuction complements the tummy tuck by removing stubborn fat deposits that diet and exercise alone may not overcome. It can be applied to various areas of the body, including the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks.
The labia lips may stretch or change shape after childbirth. Labiaplasty focuses on reshaping and resizing them to alleviate discomfort during physical activities and when wearing tight clothing, or for aesthetic reasons.
During consultation, you will meet with a specialist surgeon who will discuss your aesthetic goals, medical history and available options. This is a time for open dialogue, where you can ask questions and discuss any concerns you might have. On the Adoreal platform, you can get in touch and start communicating with surgeons who meet your specific needs, ensuring you a custom-tailored treatment plan.
Preparing for the procedure includes pre-operative tests, adjustments to medication and specific dietary and lifestyle instructions to ensure the best possible outcome. Make sure to be informed, and feel comfortable and confident as you approach your procedure.
General anaesthesia will ensure you are asleep and pain-free during the surgery.
Before surgery, you will discuss your medical history to tailor the anaesthesia to your needs; an anaesthesiologist will oversee your safety throughout the procedure.
Post-surgery, you may experience temporary grogginess or nausea. Any concerns about anaesthesia should be discussed with your surgeon in advance.
The mummy makeover surgery is conducted under the highest standards of safety and precision. Depending on the combination of procedures you have chosen, surgery duration can vary. The clinics within the Adoreal network utilise the latest surgical techniques and technology to minimise discomfort and maximise results.
Post-operative care instructions will be provided to support your healing process, including guidance on activity levels, managing discomfort and wound care.
Follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor your progress and address any questions you may have. Recovery time varies by the extent of the procedures performed – you can always get in touch with your surgeon through the Adoreal app to get additional advice on recovering.
Post-surgery, you will see an immediate improvement in your body shape. As the weeks pass and any bruising or discolouration fades, your results will further refine. If you have done a full mummy makeover, you can expect fuller, perkier breasts and a body that exudes with more confidence, youthfulness and vibrancy. With proper diet and exercise, these changes can be enduring, helping you maintain a slimmer, rejuvenated appearance for years.
• Restored body confidence
• Physical comfort
• Personalised results
• Enhanced well-being
All surgical procedures come with potential risks and considerations. With a mummy makeover often including several different procedures, common risks can include:
• Infection or bleeding from tummy tuck, breast surgery (such as breast augmentation) or liposuction sites
• Adverse reactions to anaesthesia
• Scarring, though typically minimal and strategically placed to be less visible, and they generally fade over time
• Fluid accumulation (seroma), particularly after tummy tuck procedures, which may require drainage
• Slight differences in the symmetry of the breasts or body contouring results
• Blood clots can form, posing a significant health risk if they travel to the lungs
Make sure to discuss these thoroughly with your surgeon during the consultation process.
If you are contemplating a mummy makeover, you will, together with your surgeon, consider whether you are an ideal candidate for the procedure. Suitable candidates typically share the following criteria:
• Have fully recovered from childbirth, and at least six months postpartum to allow
the body to stabilise
• No plans on going through with another pregnancy
• In good general health, with no medical conditions that could impair healing or
increase surgery risks
• Near your ideal weight, as significant weight fluctuations can affect the results
Your body's journey through motherhood is uniquely yours, and so is your path to feeling confident and empowered. Embrace the next chapter with confidence. Begin your journey towards recovery, rejuvenation and self-assurance with Adoreal.
