Mommy Makeover

Many mothers find the effects of childbirth and breastfeeding changes the shape and size of their breasts and abdomen. After women are finished having children, many opt to restore their natural look by having the "Mommy Makeover" which is typically a breast augmentation, lift, tummy tuck and occasionally liposuction.

Mommy Makeover Procedures

Mommy Makeover procedures typically consist of:

Breast Lift

A breast lift is designed to address sagginess and excess skin in the breasts that can often occur after having children. Dr. Buchanan can tighten the breast area, eliminating the excess to form a "perkier," more youthful–looking bustline.

Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation with implants can give you larger breasts that are more proportionate to your body frame. Silicone or saline breast implants can provide you with more fullness and volume to the bustline with results that look natural and beautiful.

Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) addresses the abdominal region, which becomes stretched and lax after pregnancy. The procedure tightens the abdominal muscles and pulls the surrounding skin taut, giving it a firmer, flatter appearance.

Liposuction

Liposuction is one of the most commonly performed plastic surgery procedures. This Mommy Makeover option can eliminate excess pockets of fat virtually anywhere on the body, providing a more contoured appearance.

Mommy Makeover procedures can be performed in combination, or over a number of appointments with Dr. David Buchanan. In addition to the procedures listed above, Dr. Buchanan can also help renew your skin with a number of options such as BOTOX® and other skin rejuvenation treatments to give you a full body and skin makeover.
