What is a Mommy Makeover?
The Mommy Makeover is a combination of several plastic surgery procedures designed to help women regain their figure after pregnancy and breastfeeding. At MedConnect Latam we offer a variety of personalized services for each patient, helping you achieve your goals safely. These procedures are tailored to each patient's needs and generally include liposuction, tummy tuck, breast lift, and in some cases, buttock augmentation.
1. Choose a qualified surgeon
It is essential that you choose a plastic surgeon with extensive experience in these procedures and who is endorsed by the Society of Plastic Surgeons in your country. MedConnect Latam has specialists with extensive experience and recognized for their excellence in the field of plastic surgery. Your health and safety come first.
2. Duration of the procedure
The Mommy Makeover can last anywhere from 3 to 6 hours, depending on the number of procedures you decide to perform. These may include:
LiposuctionElimination of localized fat deposits.
Breast lift or breast implantsImproving the appearance of the breasts.
Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck)Reconstruction of the abdominal wall, eliminating excess fat and stretch marks.
Buttock augmentationWith fat transfer (Brazilian Butt Lift).
3. Initial hospitalization
It is advisable to spend the first night in the clinic under medical supervision. At MedConnect Latam we provide modern facilities to ensure a safe recovery during the first night after the procedure. Afterwards, you can go home, but it is important to have someone to take care of you. You could also hire a nurse for the first few days if you consider it necessary.
4. Initial recovery
During the first two weeks, you will be swollen, sore and bruised. At MedConnect Latam, we accompany you throughout the recovery process, providing personalized recommendations and treatments such as lymphatic drainage massages. It is crucial to avoid carrying any kind of weight, even small children.
5. Considerations for medical tourism
If you decide to travel to another country for your Mommy Makeover, MedConnect Latam facilitates services for international patients, ensuring a comfortable and safe experience throughout the process. Plan at least three weeks for the trip. Ideally, stay for a month, making sure you are fully recovered before returning home.
6. Avoid intense physical activity
During the first month, avoid driving and doing exercises that require heavy lifting. At MedConnect Latam we help you follow the surgeon's recommendations and ensure a safe and progressive recovery.
7. Long-term results
The results of the Mommy Makeover can take up to six months to be fully noticeable, or even a year. Some parts of the body recover faster, but it is important to keep in mind that swelling can last for several months.
8. Habit changes to maintain results
Adopt healthy changes in your habits, such as maintaining a balanced diet and exercising. At MedConnect Latam, we also offer guidelines and advice to help you adopt healthy habits that complement the results of the Mommy Makeover. The Mommy Makeover is just the beginning; the only way to maintain the results is with a healthy lifestyle and avoiding a sedentary lifestyle.
9. Avoid smoking
You should stop smoking at least one month before surgery, and ideally not smoke for the next month. At MedConnect Latam we support you in preparing for surgery, including advice on the importance of quitting smoking for optimal recovery. Smoking affects circulation and delays the de-inflammation process, which can affect the results.
10. Get ready to feel amazing
The Mommy Makeover not only transforms your body, but also recharges your energy and improves your self-esteem. At MedConnect Latam, we are here to help you make the most of this new stage, giving you the support you need to achieve the best results.
