Mommy Makeover
Reclaiming Your Silhouette
Experience a complete physical transformation by addressing multiple areas of concern in one personalized surgical plan.
The Mommy Makeover is designed to restore the breasts and midsection to their pre-pregnancy state. It acknowledges that motherhood brings unique changes that require a multifaceted approach. By combining procedures, we can achieve a balanced and harmonious result that helps you feel like yourself again after years of transition.
Custom Combination Surgery
Each makeover is tailored to the individual patient's needs, often combining a tummy tuck with breast augmentation or a lift. The surgery addresses the specific areas where the skin has stretched and volume has been lost. This combined approach allows for a single anesthesia session and a streamlined recovery period for the patient.
During the procedure, Dr. Capraro may tighten abdominal muscles, remove excess skin, and restore breast volume or position. Liposuction is frequently used to contour the hips, waist, or thighs for a cohesive result. This holistic strategy ensures that every area of the body is addressed in proportion to the others.
Candidates for Rejuvenation
This surgery is ideal for women who have completed their childbearing journey and wish to correct the "stretched" appearance of their abdomen and breasts. It is suited for those who feel their body does not match their internal energy and confidence levels. Candidates should be in good health and stable weight.
If you are looking for an efficient way to achieve significant results, the Mommy Makeover is the gold standard. It is a powerful option for busy mothers who prefer one recovery period rather than multiple separate surgeries. We will help you select the right combination of procedures for your specific body.

Post-Makeover Healing
Because multiple areas are being treated, your recovery will require focused rest and support. Following these rules will help manage your comfort and ensure each procedure heals beautifully.
- Arrange for full-time childcare and household help for the first two weeks to ensure you can rest without any physical strain or lifting.
- Wear all prescribed compression garments on your breasts and abdomen to manage swelling and support your new contours during the initial healing phase.
- Follow a high-protein diet to provide your body with the necessary building blocks for tissue repair and to maintain your energy levels during recovery.
- Do not lift children, laundry baskets, or heavy grocery bags for at least six weeks to avoid damaging internal muscle and tissue repairs.
- Avoid sleeping on your stomach or side for several weeks; sleeping on your back with pillows for support is generally recommended for comfort.
- Avoid exposing your incisions to direct sunlight for at least one year to prevent permanent darkening and ensure the best possible scar maturation.

The Clinical Benefits of Lymphatic Integration
Integrating lymphatic drainage into your Mommy Makeover recovery provides targeted support for your body’s natural inflammatory response. This clinical add-on accelerates the clearing of internal debris, ensuring a faster transition from post-operative swelling to final results.
Rapidly flushes out widespread interstitial fluid to minimize post-surgical core heaviness.
Accelerates the reabsorption of blood cells to clear skin discoloration faster.
Gentle stimulation calms the nervous system and reduces pressure-induced discomfort.
Prevents the formation of hard nodules or "stiffness" in treated areas.
Assists the lymphatic system in removing cellular waste after multiple procedures.
Allows the skin to adhere uniformly to the underlying contours.
How Lymphatic Drainage Supports Your Transformation
A Mommy Makeover triggers a localized fluid response in several key areas of the torso simultaneously. Lymphatic drainage acts as a manual catalyst to move this fluid toward the major nodes in the axilla and groin, preventing the "tightness" that can slow your recovery.
- Gently alleviates the feeling of "fullness" or pressure in the chest and abdomen, making movement and breathing more comfortable.
- Focuses on the major drainage points in the underarms and groin to process widespread inflammation efficiently.
- Keeps the healing tissue across the torso supple to avoid hard spots or unevenness during the remodeling phase.
- Removing the "buffer" of fluid allows the skin to contract more effectively over your new, contoured shape.
- Reducing the pressure of inflammation allows you to return to your daily routines and family life sooner.
- Reducing inflammation more quickly means you can see your surgical results and return to your routine sooner.
