The Mommy Makeover Procedure
A mommy makeover is typically performed under general anesthesia and may take several hours, depending on the procedures included. During the surgery, a tummy tuck is often performed to tighten abdominal muscles and remove excess skin, while breast surgery may enhance or lift the breasts. Liposuction is commonly added to contour areas like the thighs or flanks for a more sculpted appearance. The procedures are carefully planned to ensure the best results.
Recovery and Results
Recovery times vary depending on the combination of procedures. Most patients can resume light activities within two weeks, while results become visible within three to six months as swelling subsides and the body heals. You will receive a comprehensive post-operative guideline detailing medications, activities to avoid, and personalized recovery tips tailored to your needs. Dr. Chang will also discuss specific precautions to ensure optimal healing and results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I include non-surgical treatments in my mommy makeover?
Q: How long should I wait after childbirth to have a mommy makeover?
A: It’s best to wait at least 6-12 months after childbirth to allow your body to heal completely. If you are breastfeeding, it’s advisable to wait until you have stopped for at least 3 months before surgery.
Q: Can a mommy makeover address stretch marks?
A: A mommy makeover can reduce the appearance of stretch marks if they are located on skin that will be removed during a tummy tuck. However, it does not eliminate stretch marks entirely.
Q: How do I prepare for a mommy makeover?
A: Preparation includes reaching a stable weight, stopping smoking, arranging for help during recovery, and following your surgeon’s pre-surgery instructions. Maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine can also improve your recovery process.
Q: Will a mommy makeover help me lose weight?
A: A mommy makeover is not a weight-loss procedure but can contour your body by removing excess skin and fat. It’s most effective for individuals near their ideal weight who want to improve specific areas.
Q: Can I have a mommy makeover if I’ve had a C-section?
A: Yes, many women who have had a C-section are excellent candidates for a mommy makeover. A tummy tuck can often address issues such as excess skin and weakened abdominal muscles, and in some cases, the C-section scar can be incorporated into the new incision for minimal additional scarring.
Q: How long do the results of a mommy makeover last?
A: The results of a mommy makeover can be long-lasting if you maintain a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle. While the aging process and natural changes in your body will continue, the improvements in contour, firmness, and shape can remain noticeable for many years.

"I have never felt so confident. Dr. Chang completely changed how I saw myself in the mirror. I was terribly self conscious of my nose from my youth and finally decided to go through with the surgery. Not only was it inexpensive compared to the other three doctors I contacted, the before and after pictures of patients were also much better looking than the others! The whole process of surgery and recovery was quick and pretty much painless. I would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting cosmetic surgery. It really made me a happier person." - Catherine M.
"My son was in a terrible accident with most of the bones in his face and skull broken... I don't know what I would have done without Dr Chang!! My son is fully recovered and back to his old self again. I love Dr Chang, he will be in my prayers for the rest of my life. Thank you!" - Elizabeth A.
"I cannot say enough about my surgery with Dr. Chang! I had full facial Rejuvenation including a facelift brow lift and upper eyelids done 4 months ago. I also had a chemical peel to my lower eyelids and mouth. They was barely any pain and I was back to work the next week! I am so thrilled and my friends are so impressed. I cannot say enough about my experience! He is both caring and an amazing surgeon! Thank you so much!" - Cathy W.
The entire experience and outcome was everything I hoped for and I cannot thank Dr. Chang enough! He is a true pro and I recommend 100% without reservation!" - Ashley R.
"I went to Dr. Chang to correct the damage done to my breasts from pregnancy and breastfeeding. He went above and beyond to make me comfortable and to explain exactly what the procedures (lift + implants) would entail. He was extremely responsive and truly understood the look that I was trying to achieve - full, natural for my frame, and with minimal scarring. I'm only two days out from surgery and I'm already loving my results. I am so glad that I chose Dr. Chang to restore my chest to its pre-baby appearance. I actually think they are going to be better than they ever were before I had kids!" - Emily L.
