Can I Get a Mommy Makeover If I’m Not a Mom? (Updated 2023)

The term “mommy makeover” is somewhat misleading because it implies you have to be a mom in order to benefit. However, a mommy makeover is simply a phrase that refers to any combination of plastic surgery procedures that enhances the breasts and body. A mommy makeover is a popular choice with mothers who want to get their pre-baby body back because they can flatten the tummy, enhance and lift the breasts, and remove unwanted fat. But mommy makeovers aren’t just for moms. To understand why let’s take a closer look at what constitutes a mommy makeover.

What Is a Mommy Makeover?

Traditional mommy makeovers include procedures that restore a woman’s body after pregnancy and childbirth and typically focus on the breasts and tummy. Many of the most popular options for mommy makeover surgery include:

• Breast augmentation: A breast augmentation uses saline or silicone implants to enhance the size of the breasts and create a more voluptuous appearance. This is often helpful for moms who have breastfed, as the breasts take on a more “deflated” appearance after weaning.
• Tummy tuck: A tummy tuck removes extra skin and fat that can accompany pregnancy, making the abdomen firmer, flatter, and more sculpted. In people with diastasis recti, or separation of the abdominal muscles, a tummy tuck is the only way to restore muscle tone.
• Liposuction: Liposuction is used to remove extra fat from areas like the stomach, buttocks, thighs, and arms. This is an excellent option when diet and exercise aren’t enough to target your trouble areas.
• Breast lift: A breast lift can improve the shape and position of the breasts so that they look perkier and more youthful. Breast lift surgery can be performed with breast implants for women who want to both elevate their breasts and increase volume.
• Breast reduction (male or female): A breast reduction can decrease the size of the breasts and improve the breast shape. A breast lift is often combined with breast reduction for best results.
• Brazilian Butt Lift: A Brazilian butt lift can help to shape and sculpt buttocks through fat transfer. This popular procedure is an excellent way to create a full, rounded look that many desire.

This list includes just a few of the most popular mommy makeover options. There are numerous face, breast, and body procedures that can be performed in a combination surgery.

Who Can Have a Mommy Makeover?

Anyone who wants to improve multiple areas of their body at once can have a mommy makeover; if the term doesn’t apply to you, you can call it a combined breast and body surgery. Anyone who is active, eats right, doesn’t smoke, and is at a healthy weight is usually a good candidate.

Although these procedures are especially beneficial after having children, they are also helpful in many other situations. Men and women who have lost a significant amount of weight often benefit from body and breast contouring procedures, as do individuals who are bothered by age-related changes in their appearance. Additional treatments, such as facial surgery or nonsurgical services, can also be included as part of a mommy makeover.

Procedures that are commonly combined for men include liposuction, tummy tuck, and gynecomastia surgery (a breast reduction procedure that is performed to correct the look of “man boobs”). And like mommy makeover surgery, this technique is available for any man, not just dads.

The Advantages of a Mommy Makeover

Combining plastic surgery procedures into a single surgery offers many benefits. People who choose a mommy makeover enjoy:

• Reduced exposure to anesthesia
• Complete, comprehensive results
• One recovery period (as opposed to multiple recoveries)
• Cost savings (paying for the facility/surgeon’s fees once, rather than separately with each surgery)
• Less time away from work or other activities
