Mommy Makeover to Reclaim Your Figure
By combining tummy tuck surgery, liposuction 360 and breast procedures in one plan, this comprehensive approach restores balance and helps you feel confident in your figure again.
Comprehensive Body Contouring
A Mommy Makeover restores shape and confidence with a plan that fits your body and goals.
While it is often chosen after pregnancy, it is also an excellent option for patients who have experienced major weight loss and want to address loose skin, weakened muscles and changes in breast shape.
With Dr. Tyler Frew’s expertise in breast and body surgery, the focus is always on balance, proportion, and natural results that let you look like yourself, only more refreshed.
What Is a Mommy Makeover
A Mommy Makeover combines multiple procedures into one plan to restore balance and confidence. The most common elements include:
- Tummy tuck to repair stretched abdominal muscles and remove loose skin
- Liposuction 360 to contour the waist, flanks, and back for smoother shape
- Breast lift to raise and reshape the breasts using your natural tissue
- Breast augmentation with implants or fat transfer to restore or add volume
- Breast reduction to reduce size while reshaping and lifting for comfort and proportion
Together, these procedures create a more youthful, proportionate figure while keeping results natural and tailored to your body.
Who It Helps
A Mommy Makeover is designed for women who want to restore their figure after significant body changes.
- Loose abdominal skin or muscle separation after pregnancy
- Stubborn fat around the waist, flanks, and back
- Loss of breast volume or shape after breastfeeding
- Skin laxity or stretched tissues following weight loss
- Desire for a more defined, proportionate figure
By addressing these concerns in a single, personalized plan, a Mommy Makeover helps patients achieve a balanced, natural-looking shape that feels like their own.

How Your Plan Comes Together
Your Mommy Makeover plan is personalized around your frame and goals. Each step is carefully measured and mapped to create balance and natural results.
- Abdomen evaluation to check for diastasis so muscle repair can restore core support
- Liposuction 360 planning to refine the waist, flanks, and back for smoother contour
- Breast sizing with measurements and try on so you can see how options look on your body
The focus throughout is natural contour, smooth transitions and results that feel like you.
Internal Support When Needed
Select breast lifts or augmentations may benefit from internal bra support. This internal reinforcement helps maintain position and shape over time, especially for patients with thinner tissue or a history of recurrent sagging.
Dr. Frew will review the available materials with you and determine whether this technique is the right addition to your surgical plan.
What Patients Notice In Their Results
Patients who choose a Mommy Makeover often notice meaningful changes that restore both comfort and confidence.
- A flatter abdomen with better core support
- A defined waistline after liposuction 360
- Lifted, proportionate breasts that match the frame
- Clothing that fits comfortably and looks refined

Recovery and Aftercare
Dr. Frew guides every stage of recovery so you know what to expect and how to heal comfortably. The Mommy Makeover recovery timeline gives patients a clear idea of what to expect after surgery.
While every plan is customized, most follow a predictable pattern as swelling decreases, energy improves, and results take shape.
Mommy Makeover Recovery Timeline: What to Expect
This overview outlines the typical milestones after a Mommy Makeover so you know what to expect at each stage of healing.
- Week 1 – Light walking with support, compression garment use, rest at home, and gentle mobility. Focus on hydration, nutrition, and short walks.
- Weeks 2 to 3 – Swelling begins to decrease. Many patients return to desk work. Continue compression and follow scar care instructions.
- Weeks 4 to 6 – Gradual return to normal activities while avoiding heavy lifting or strenuous exercise. Range of motion improves and contour becomes clearer.
- Months 2 to 3 – Bruising and swelling continue to fade. Shape and definition refine. Most patients resume full activity as cleared by Dr. Frew.
With Dr. Frew’s attentive follow up and advanced recovery protocols, patients often experience a smoother healing process and results that continue to improve for months.
Advanced Recovery With Photobiomodulation
Dr. Frew enhances recovery with photobiomodulation as part of a comprehensive Mommy Makeover plan. This gentle, light-based therapy supports cellular repair, improves circulation and calms inflammation. Treatments are scheduled before surgery, immediately afterward and during early healing for steady support.
Patients often notice less swelling and bruising, a more comfortable early recovery and results that reveal sooner. This focused healing protocol helps you return to daily life with greater ease and confidence.
Aftercare Essentials
A few simple steps can make a big difference in how smoothly you recover after a Mommy Makeover.
- Wear compression as directed and follow positioning guidelines
- Take medications as prescribed and report concerns promptly
- Keep incisions clean and dry, and follow scar care instructions
- Walk daily, increase activity gradually, and avoid strain until cleared
- Attend all follow up visits so Dr. Frew can guide each step
Bottom line: With clear guidance, consistent follow up, and photobiomodulation support, recovery is organized, comfortable, and aligned with long term results.

Mommy Makeover FAQs
How much does a mommy makeover cost?
The cost of a mommy makeover varies depending on which procedures are included, such as a tummy tuck, breast augmentation, breast lift, or liposuction. Since it is customized for every patient, Dr. Tyler Frew will provide a personalized estimate during your consultation.
How do I decide what to include in my mommy makeover?
Every mommy makeover is tailored to your body and goals. Common procedures include tummy tuck, liposuction, and breast surgery. Dr. Frew will help you choose the right combination to restore your shape and confidence.
How do you choose breast size?
By measurements and try on so you can see how options look on your body rather than chasing a cup size or a cc number.
Will I have scars?
Yes, surgical procedures like tummy tuck or breast lift leave scars, but Dr. Frew places incisions in discreet locations and uses advanced closure techniques to help them fade over time.
What if I get pregnant again?
A future pregnancy can affect the results of your mommy makeover. It’s best to wait until you are finished having children before undergoing the procedure.
How soon after childbirth can I get a mommy makeover?
Most women should wait at least 6–12 months after childbirth and breastfeeding before having a mommy makeover. This allows your body to heal fully and ensures more predictable results.
Will insurance cover my mommy makeover?
Because a mommy makeover is considered cosmetic, insurance does not cover it. However, financing options are often available to help make the procedure more affordable.
Are the results permanent?
Results are long-lasting, especially with a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. However, natural aging and future pregnancies may affect the outcome.
How long is recovery after a mommy makeover?
Recovery depends on the number and type of procedures. Most patients need two to three weeks off work and can return to full activity, including exercise, within six to eight weeks.
How painful is recovery?
Some discomfort is normal, especially in the first week. Dr. Frew provides detailed recovery instructions, medication options, and post-surgery support to keep you as comfortable as possible.
Am I a good candidate for a mommy makeover?
You may be a good candidate if you are in good health, finished having children, and want to restore your body after pregnancy. Dr. Frew will evaluate your health, anatomy, and goals during consultation.
Will I still look like myself?
Yes. Planning focuses on balance and proportion so results look natural on your frame.
Can this be for weight loss patients as well?
