What is Mommy Makeover? 

A Mommy Makeover is a personalized combination of cosmetic surgeries designed to help women restore their body shape and confidence after pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding. It typically includes procedures like breast lift or augmentation, tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), and liposuction, though it can be tailored to each person’s needs. The goal is to address common post-pregnancy changes such as loose abdominal skin, stretched muscles, sagging breasts, and stubborn fat pockets. A Mommy Makeover focuses on creating natural, balanced results while helping mothers feel more like themselves again confident, comfortable, and strong.

Why Do People Consider Mommy Makeover?​​​

Dr Vicky Jain Approach to Mommy Makeover

Dr. Vicky Jain’s approach to the Mommy Makeover is centered around personalization, safety, and natural-looking results. He understands that every woman’s body changes differently after pregnancy, so he takes the time to listen and design a surgical plan that suits each individual’s needs and whether that includes a tummy tuck, breast enhancement, liposuction, or a combination. His goal is not just physical transformation, but restoring confidence and comfort. With a focus on advanced techniques, minimal scarring, and smooth recovery, Dr. Jain ensures that mothers feel cared for every step of the way from consultation to final results.

What is the suitable age group for Mommy Makeover?

The suitable age group for a Mommy Makeover is typically women aged 25 to 50, though it can be considered by anyone who is healthy and has completed their family planning. The key factors are physical readiness, stable weight, and emotional maturity, rather than age alone. It’s important that the individual has fully recovered from childbirth (usually at least 6 months to 1 year postpartum) and is not planning future pregnancies, as future pregnancies can affect the results. As long as the patient is medically fit, the procedure can be safely done even beyond the age of 50. 

How long does recovery take for Mommy Makeover?

Recovery from a Mommy Makeover generally takes about 6 to 8 weeks in total, though most people can return to light daily activities within 2 to 4 weeks. Since it often combines procedures like a tummy tuck, breast surgery, and liposuction, the healing timeline depends on which surgeries are performed. In the first 1–2 weeks, rest and help with childcare are usually needed. By week 3 or 4, many patients feel well enough to return to desk work. Strenuous activity, heavy lifting, and exercise should be avoided for at least 6 weeks, and swelling may take a few months to fully subside. Following Dr. Vicky Jain’s post-operative instructions, including wearing compression garments and attending follow-ups, can speed healing and improve results.

Tests Requirements

Before undergoing a Mommy Makeover, a full set of medical tests is needed to ensure you're healthy and ready for combined surgical procedures. Common tests include a Complete Blood Count (CBC) to check for infection or anemia, blood sugar levels (fasting and postprandial), and thyroid function tests. A coagulation profile (PT, APTT, INR) is essential to assess blood clotting, while liver and kidney function tests help determine how your body will respond to anesthesia and medications. Additional tests like an ECG (especially for women over 35), chest X-ray, and urine analysis are standard. Screenings for HIV, Hepatitis B and C, and a pregnancy test (if applicable) are also required. Depending on your medical history or if procedures like breast surgery are involved, a breast ultrasound or mammogram may also be advised. These tests ensure that the procedure is both safe and tailored to your individual health needs.
