What is a Mommy Makeover in Cancun?

A Mommy Makeover is a highly customized set of plastic surgery procedures designed to help women regain their pre-pregnancy body contours and confidence after changes brought on by pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Key areas typically addressed include:

  • Breasts: Restoring shape, volume, or position with options like augmentation (with or without implants), a lift, or reduction.
  • Abdomen: Achieving a flatter, firmer midsection through a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) or advanced liposuction techniques (such as ultrasound-assisted or MicroAire-assisted).

Additional enhancements can include:

  • Fat transfer to the buttocks and hips for enhanced curves.
  • Labiaplasty (female genital surgery) for rejuvenation.

Every Mommy Makeover is uniquely tailored to the individual’s needs and goals, often performed in one or multiple sessions, following a thorough consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Arturo Valdez.

Am I a Good Candidate for Mommy Makeover in Cancun?

Bothered by Post-Pregnancy Changes

You have specific concerns like sagging breasts, loose abdominal skin, separated abdominal muscles, or stubborn fat that diet and exercise haven’t resolved.

Completed Childbearing

It’s generally recommended that you’re finished having children, as future pregnancies can undo your surgical results.

Stable Weight

You should be at or near your ideal body weight and maintain it, as significant fluctuations can impact your results.

General Good Health

You should be in generally good health without conditions that could impair healing.

Realistic Expectations

Understand that a Mommy Makeover creates significant improvement and restoration, but it’s not about achieving perfection.

Non-Smoker

Smoking can impair wound healing, and increase the risk of complications.

The The Mommy Makeover: What to Expect

Step 1—Anesthesia

Medications are administered for your comfort. Dr. Valdez and the anesthesiologist will discuss the best choice for you, which may include regional anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia.

Step 2—The Incision(s)

Mommy Makeover involves precise incisions for both breast and abdominal rejuvenation.

For breasts (augmentation, lift, reduction), incisions are placed strategically to minimize visibility. The tummy tuck typically uses a horizontal incision between the pubic hairline and belly button, customized for excess skin removal and diastasis recti repair. Liposuction uses tiny, discreet incisions. Your unique plan is detailed in consultation.

Step 3—Excess Skin Removal & Belly Button Reshaping

A Mommy Makeover frequently involves addressing excess skin from pregnancy. For the abdomen, loose skin is carefully removed during a tummy tuck to create a smoother, firmer contour. Breast lifts or reductions also precisely remove excess skin for a more youthful shape. Where necessary, labiaplasty can also address excess tissue. Dr. Valdez meticulously tailors this to your needs for natural results.

Step 4—Closing the Incisions

Sutures, skin adhesives, tapes, or clips are used to meticulously close the skin incisions, with an emphasis on minimizing visible scarring.

Step 5—Recovery Time

Recovery varies, but expect bruising and swelling after your Mommy Makeover. Most patients need 2-3 weeks for initial recovery before resuming light activities, with more strenuous exercise avoided for longer. Dr. Valdez will provide detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth healing process and optimal results.
