The Benefits of a Mommy Makeover

There’s no doubt about it — children change your life in many positive ways. But your body? Not so much. If your family is complete and you’re ready to get back your pre-baby body, a mommy makeover can help!

At OasisMD Lifestyle Healthcare, board-certified plastic surgeon James J. Chao, MD, helps our patients in San Diego, Encinitas, and Temecula, California, reclaim their bodies after childbearing with our mommy makeover services.

So you can better understand the benefits of a mommy makeover, our experienced team has put together this helpful guide. Read on to learn what you need to know about mommy makeovers and the benefits they offer. 

What’s involved in a mommy makeover?

A mommy makeover isn’t one procedure, but rather a customized group of services designed to restore your body after the wear-and-tear it goes through during pregnancy and nursing. At OasisMD, Dr. Chao and the team listen attentively to your aesthetic goals and create a personalized plan to help you achieve them.    

Though a mommy makeover can be restorative and help you reclaim your pre-baby shape, it can also enhance your body, allowing you to choose the contours you want now, even if they aren’t the same as your pre-kids physique. 

You can pick and choose the services you desire, but most mommy makeovers include one or more of the following:
