Dr. David Pincus
What Can a Mommy Makeover Do for You?
Improved Breast Shape
During pregnancy, glandular breast tissues swell and the skin stretches due to continual milk production. These tissues remain enlarged until you’ve finished nursing. At this point, your breasts will lose volume, often resulting in smaller, sagging, and more deflated breasts than you had before your pregnancy.
Breast augmentation or a breast lift can restore youthful, perky breasts.
Slimmer Waist and Belly
Pregnancy affects your hormone levels, which causes diet and exercise-resistant pockets of fat to form. This unwanted fat can accumulate in various areas of your body and decrease confidence and self-esteem.
Liposuction is a minimally invasive surgery that removes stubborn fat and recontours almost any area of your body.
A Toned Abdomen
Your uterus expands during pregnancy, putting pressure on the abdominal muscles and often causing them to separate ( diastasis recti). Simultaneously, your waistline increases, and your skin stretches, causing laxity after giving birth.
Tummy tuck surgery tightens loose muscles and removes excess skin for a firmer and more slender midsection.
Schedule your consultation with Dr. Pincus to find out if you’re a good candidate for a Mommy Makeover.
What are Your Mommy Makeover Concerns?
Recovery
How Long Is Mommy Makeover Recovery?
The length and intensity of your Mommy Makeover recovery will vary depending on the procedures performed. You can expect some bruising and swelling near the incision sites, which will gradually subside over the following weeks and months.
All treated areas will be wrapped with compression garments to reduce swelling, increase blood circulation, and aid in the overall healing process.
Any pain can be managed with prescription or over-the-counter pain medication. Most women can resume work or their normal activities after one to two weeks but avoid strenuous exercise for at least six weeks.
Results
When Will I See My Mommy Makeover Results?
The results of your Mommy Makeover will be visible immediately following your procedure and will improve over the following weeks and months as bruising and swelling gradually disappear.
Tummy tuck, liposuction, breast reduction, and breast lift results are considered permanent but cannot stop the effects of age and gravity. You can expect long-lasting results unless you experience significant weight fluctuations or subsequent pregnancies. Breast augmentation can last 10 years or more unless a complication arises.
Scars
Will a Mommy Makeover Leave Scars?
The extent of your scarring will depend on which procedures were included in your Mommy Makeover. Scars form as incisions heal but fade over time. Incisions for abdominoplasty often leave the longest scars but are made along the bikini line, allowing them to be easily hidden. You can help reduce the visibility of these scars by protecting them from sun exposure and applying silicone strips or scar creams.
Frequently Asked Questions
Am I a candidate for a Mommy Makeover?
Ideal candidates for Mommy Makeovers are physically healthy women who have experienced their final pregnancy, do not smoke, are close to their ideal weight, and are concerned about the changes to their bodies caused by pregnancy or weight loss. Women who use nicotine products must quit for at least three weeks before and after the surgery.
What will my Long Island area Mommy Makeover cost?
The cost of your Mommy Makeover will vary considerably depending on the combination of procedures. Additional cost factors include anesthesia fees, facility fees, surgeon’s fees, pre-surgical tests, post-surgical dressings, and medications. You will be provided with an accurate cost estimate before the end of your consultation.
Why should I combine procedures?
While plastic surgeries can be performed separately, combining similar procedures can decrease overall costs and recovery time.
What risks are associated with a Mommy Makeover?
While these procedures are safe, no surgery is without risk. While rare, complications may occur, including:
- Adverse reactions to anesthesia
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Blood clots
- Hematoma
- Prolonged or poor wound healing
Can I undergo a Mommy Makeover if I want more children?
Women should wait to undergo a Mommy Makeover until they are done with childbearing. Although patients can still have the procedure if they desire more children, another pregnancy will affect the results.
Do I need to be a mother to have a Mommy Makeover?
While these procedures are ideal for mothers who want to improve their bodies after the impact of one or more pregnancies, any woman can combine plastic surgeries to achieve a slimmer or more naturally feminine figure.

My experience with Dr.Pincus and staff was amazing. Dr. Pincus is wonderful he made me feel completely comfortable and assisted me in the right direction in the size of my implants so I didn’t need to do a lift. Apparently my surgery ended up being a little more then we thought and I needed extra work and he did an amazing job correcting my breast that was out of place. The staff and nurses are so friendly and make you feel at home here. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to do my implant replacement. I highly recommend Dr. Pincus! — JS
I had gastric bypass surgery 18 years ago and this was the icing on the cake. I told Dr. Pincus I would not wear a bikini I jand that I just wanted to feel better in my clothes. My tummy tuck results were better than I imagined! I just ordered crop top tank tops and cannot wait to wear them! Dr Pincus and his staff are the best! — C.T.
Dr. Pincus and staff are absolutely amazing. I waited a very long time for a Mommy Makeover. Having a rare anesthesia issue Dr.Pincus and his team made sure that I was going to be 100% safe during surgery. After my first consultation I knew I was going to be in good hands. Speaking of hands, his hands are pure gold. I am beyond amazed with the results and I am only three weeks post op. I was extremely specific with certain details regarding my surgery. All I can say is Dr. Pincus understood the assignment!!! I will be forever grateful to all for giving me my confidence back!! Five stars is not nearly enough! — D.Z.
