Becoming a mother is one of life's most special experiences. However, the pregnancy and childbirth process can cause permanent changes in the body. At this point, mommy makeover (maternity aesthetics) offers comprehensive aesthetic solutions to recover postpartum deformations.

What Is Mommy Makeover (Maternity Aesthetics)?

It is the combined application of multiple aesthetic procedures in a single session with the aim of correcting postpartum deformations in the body. This application is not a single surgery, but a combination surgery planned individually.

What Procedures Does Mommy Makeover Include?

  • Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty): Recovery of sagged skin and weakened abdominal muscles
  • Breast Aesthetics: Lift, augmentation, or reduction
  • Liposuction (Fat Removal): Reduction of regional fat
  • (Optional) Arm or Thigh Contouring

When Should Mommy Makeover Be Performed?
