What Is a Mommy Makeover?
Pregnancy and childbirth almost always change the look, shape, and size of various body parts. While it may be frustrating, it's possible for individuals to reclaim a slimmer, smoother physique after pregnancy and childbirth with the assistance of the mommy makeover. This surgical procedure, performed at Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery, uses a blend of liposuction, skin removal, and other cosmetic treatments to target areas affected by pregnancy or nursing — the breasts, tummy, and lower body. To learn more about the mommy makeover, schedule a consultation at our Birmingham, AL practice.
How Is a Mommy Makeover Performed?
Every mommy makeover treatment is different in its own way. During a consultation with one of our plastic surgeons, we'll determine how we can tailor each mommy makeover to meet the patient's unique needs and goals. We offer a wide selection of procedures, but the most common include breast lifts, breast implants, tummy tucks, labiaplasty, and liposuction. All surgical procedures will be performed while the patient is under general anesthesia, and some may require an overnight stay at the hospital, depending on their particular treatment plan.
What Are the Benefits of a Mommy Makeover?
It can be difficult to get back to a pre-pregnancy figure without help. Mommy makeovers offer a number of advantages for those seeking help getting their pre-pregnancy figure back, including:
- Enhances curves, including the breasts, stomach, and thighs
- Provides convenience by packaging separate surgeries into one procedure
- Improves satisfaction with overall physique
- Minimizes the visible effects of pregnancy and childbirth
Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery Reviews
After losing 110 pounds, I was left with excess skin, and I decided to consult with Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery for a Mommy Makeover after following them on Instagram for a year. During the consultation, Dr. Halka was very patient, answering all my questions and addressing all my concerns. Although I went on two other consultations, I chose Dr. Halka's plan for the procedure and recovery since it seemed to be the best for me. The procedure went smoothly, and I followed all the post-op instructions meticulously. Now, after 12 weeks post-op, I'm thrilled with the results. Dr. Halka didn't just perform a Mommy Makeover; he transformed me entirely. I'm now in the best shape of my life and finally feel confident, beautiful, and comfortable in my skin at 47 years old. I'm grateful for Dr. Halka's kindness, talents, and expertise, and the Hedden & Gunn staff's professionalism, kindness, and accommodation made the experience even better. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Hedden Plastic Surgery is amazing! Dr. Hedden listens to what you want and performs his magic! The office is clean and the staff is knowledgeable and caring! I had a mommy makeover and I couldn’t be happier with my results!
A Whole New Me! - What a life-changing experience with Dr. Halka! As a 45-year-old woman, wife, and mother, I finally realized that taking care of myself IS taking care of my family. I decided to put myself and my health first for a change and set a goal to lose the excess weight I've been carrying around my entire life. With bariatric surgery, a complete lifestyle change to a low-carb diet, and 4-6 intense 5 am workouts weekly, I lost 110 pounds and have maintained the loss for two and a half years. This was ah-mazing! However, after two years of hard work and dedication, my body was still a saggy, floppy mess even after the incredible weight loss. I decided to go for a Mommy Makeover consultation at Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery after following them on Instagram for about a year. I met with Dr. Halka, who was very thorough and took his time explaining everything, answering all of my questions, and addressing all of my concerns. I went on two other consultations in Huntsville, AL, and Chattanooga, TN as those locations are closer to my home, but ultimately, I chose Dr. Halka's plan for the procedure and recovery because it was the best. We decided on a 360 body lift with muscle repair and lipo, breast augmentation with 500 cc Mentor silicone implants placed above the muscle, and fat transfer to the buttocks. The procedure went smoothly with no complications, and I followed the post-op instructions to the letter. Now, 12 weeks post-op, I am incredibly happy with my results. Dr. Halka didn't just perform a Mommy Makeover, he created a whole new version of me. I'm in the best shape of my life and finally, at 47 years of age, I feel confident, beautiful, and comfortable in my skin. I'm incredibly grateful for Dr. Halka's kindness, talent, and expertise. I can't imagine having a better experience.
Amazing LBL with MR and Fat Transfer to Buttocks - After 4 babies and a weight loss of 80lbs, finally decided it was time to get rid of some skin. Went in thinking mommy makeover. Dr Halka told me he didn’t think the tummy tuck results would make me happy and recommended the lower body lift. I was concerned about it flattening out my butt so he also suggested the fat transfer. I could not be more pleased with the results. I cried the first time I saw my new tummy. Best money I’ve ever spent. Totally worth it!! He has been wonderful through the entire process. As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway.
I looked and searched for a practice I felt comfortable with for a mommy makeover. I found the team for Dr. Hedden to be very kind and helpful, but also encouraging and not pushy. I had recently lost 30 lbs post babies and it had caused a lot of insecurities that I wanted to address. I am 3 weeks post op, and I'm feeling really good- my results are great! I was very impressed with Dr. Hedden's bedside manner. This experience, and the confidence it gave me back has really changed my mind about this procedure, and how much it can boost a woman's confidence. Thank you Dr. Hedden and team!!
