Mommy Makeover

If you miss your pre-baby body, you’re not alone. Experienced plastic surgeon Brian Blumenauer, MD, frequently works with moms at Oceana Aesthetics in Stuart, Florida, to help them restore the youthful contours they had before giving birth. However, these procedures aren’t just for mommies. Dr. Blumenauer specializes in helping patients who have had any significant weight loss address excess skin and laxity of the breasts, arms, body, buttocks, or thighs. Dr. Blumenauer offers a wide selection of body contouring procedures, such as breast augmentation, liposuction, and tummy tuck surgery. Call the clinic or schedule an appointment online to find out if you’re a candidate for a mommy makeover.

What is a mommy makeover?

A mommy makeover combines several procedures to help restore the shape of a woman’s pre-pregnancy body. This individualized treatment can help lift sagging breasts, remove unwanted fat, tighten the skin around the abdomen, and address many other physical signs of childbirth.

With a modern approach to cosmetic surgery, Dr. Blumenauer works with you to create an individualized treatment plan that helps you achieve your desired results.

What procedure can a mommy makeover include?

A mommy makeover can include multiple procedures, such as:

Breast augmentation

Breast augmentation uses saline or silicone implants to increase the size of the breasts and enhance their shape.

Breast lift

A breast lift raises the breasts, removes excess tissue, and tightens the skin for a more youthful appearance. 

Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck)

A tummy tuck removes unwanted fat and excess skin from the abdomen. The procedure is ideal for women who have lost significant weight after childbirth.

Buttock augmentation (body lift)

Buttock augmentation, or a posterior body lift, tightens and lifts excess skin from the upper and lower back through thin incisions beneath the bra and underwear lines.

Labiaplasty

Labiaplasty tightens and removes excess tissue from the labia minora, the folds that cover the vulva, for aesthetic and functional concerns.

Liposuction

Liposuction uses specialized cannulas to liquefy and remove unwanted fat from the abdomen, hips, buttocks, thighs, arms, and other areas of the body.

After a complete medical history review, physical exam, and consultation, Dr. Blumenauer can help determine which treatments are right for you.

Who is a candidate for a mommy makeover?

A mommy makeover is an individualized procedure that Dr. Blumenauer can tailor to meet your specific goals. He may recommend a combination of body contouring procedures if you’re unhappy with more than one area of your post-baby body.

You may be a candidate for a mommy makeover if you:

• Are in good overall health
• Do not smoke
• Have excess fat or skin that hasn’t responded to diet and exercise
• Maintain a healthy weight
• Do not plan to give birth again

A mommy makeover is not a weight loss procedure. Dr. Blumenauer does not recommend body contouring treatments for patients who plan to lose weight after surgery.
