While childbirth is among a woman’s greatest joys in life, the process can leave behind anatomical changes, ranging from breast ptosis or drooping to stretched abdominal tissues or excess fat. What is often called a "mommy makeover” usually involves a combination of procedures to revitalize a woman’s figure toward its more youthful shape prior to babies.

What Does a Mommy Makeover Involve?
Dr. Pruitt’s "mommy makeover” procedures are unique to each patient and can address a number of cosmetic concerns at once. The more comprehensive nature makes it a favorite among patients who have finished building their families and are finally ready to focus on themselves. A "mommy makeover" may include the following procedures:
Breast Augmentation and/or Breast Lift
Pregnancy and breastfeeding can negatively impact the breasts, causing them to lose volume, shape, and projection. Breast augmentation can restore volume and fullness while mastopexy or breast lift can address breast ptosis or drooping.
Abdominoplasty or Tummy Tuck
Pregnancy can have a significant impact on the appearance of the stomach and abdomen. A "tummy tuck" or abdominoplasty can eliminate the excess skin and fat in the lower abdomen (often including stretch marks) and can correct the separation of the abdominal muscles (diastasis recti) that often occurs as well.
Liposuction Body Contouring
Stubborn deposits of excess fatty tissue can appear or worsen after pregnancy and often prove difficult to eliminate with diet and exercise alone. Liposuction, also known as liposculpture, targets these specific problem areas so you can enjoy a thinner, more contoured appearance.
