Mommy Makeover in New Jersey & Philadelphia
Many women love being pregnant and experiencing the physical changes their bodies go through to form a new life. Unfortunately, not every mother’s body snaps back to its pre-pregnancy shape and tone after childbirth, even with diligent exercise and healthy eating habits.
At our locations in Princeton, Voorhees, Yardley, and Philadelphia, Dr. David W. Allison helps moms address the physical after-effects of pregnancy and breastfeeding through customized Mommy Makeover procedures.
What Is Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover is a customized combination of procedures designed to restore the body after pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. It addresses the physical changes that often remain despite diet and exercise, helping patients feel more comfortable and confident in their bodies.
Rather than being a single surgery, a Mommy Makeover may include procedures such as breast enhancement, abdominal contouring, and liposuction, depending on each patient’s needs. The goal is to rebuild strength, shape, and proportion in areas most affected by pregnancy.
Dr. Allison designs every Mommy Makeover based on the patient’s anatomy, lifestyle, and goals, creating results that look natural and feel aligned with the patient’s body.
Benefits of Mommy Makeover
A Mommy Makeover offers both physical and emotional benefits for patients looking to restore their body after pregnancy. Benefits may include:
- Improved breast shape, volume, or position
- A flatter, firmer abdominal contour
- Reduction of stubborn fat deposits
- Improved body proportions
- Increased confidence in clothing and swimwear
Because pregnancy affects every body differently, Dr. Allison takes a thoughtful, individualized approach to help patients achieve results that feel balanced, natural, and true to themselves.
Mommy Makeover Procedures
Mommy Makeover is a common term used today to describe a group of cosmetic procedures that can help women reshape, lift and tighten problem areas in the abdomen, breasts, hips and thighs. The most common procedures used are:
01
Tummy Tuck
Not surprisingly, the tummy is often a major problem area after childbirth; after all, when a woman’s abdominal area is stretched to accommodate a growing baby, her abdominal muscles are bound to become weaker. Diligently performing hundreds of crunches often cannot restore the tummy to its pre-pregnancy tone.
Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) surgery is performed to remove excess fat and skin from the abdominal area while tightening the underlying abdominal muscles. A full or mini tummy tuck may be recommended to achieve your physical goals.
02
Liposuction
It takes time after pregnancy to lose the baby weight and get back down to your normal size. For some women, even though they achieve their pre-pregnancy weight (or close to it), they still have stubborn fat deposits that will not go away. When no amount of exercise and healthy dieting will do the trick, liposuction can be the answer.
Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery technique to spot-reduce body fat in a variety of areas:
- Abdomen
- Hips and thighs
- Knees and ankles
- Back
- Arms
- Chin and neck
03
Breast Enhancement
Throughout pregnancy a woman’s breasts undergo a multitude of changes, from voluptuous to life-sustaining to exhausted. Because breasts are a symbol of sexuality and femininity, many moms turn to cosmetic surgery to revitalize their post-pregnancy breasts. Breast enhancement in a Mommy Makeover can include:
- Breast lift to correct sagging breasts
- Breast augmentation to increase the size of the breasts
- Fat transfer to remove fat from other areas of the body (via liposuction) and transferring it to the breasts
- Combination of breast lift and breast augmentation
