Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover is a customized combination of procedures that restores the breasts, abdomen, and body after pregnancy and breastfeeding.
What Is a Mommy Makeover?
A mommy makeover is a personalized combination of cosmetic procedures designed to address the changes pregnancy and breastfeeding can leave behind. No two mothers are the same, so no two mommy makeovers are identical: Drs. Hajjar and Lumley tailor each plan to the individual, commonly combining breast and abdominal procedures with body contouring to restore a balanced, refreshed shape. Serving Birmingham, Bloomfield Hills, and the greater Metro Detroit area, our board-certified team focuses on natural-looking results and a recovery plan that fits a busy mom’s life.

Breast Augmentation
Restores lost volume with implants for fuller, more proportionate breasts.
-
Breast Lift
Raises and reshapes breasts that have changed in position or shape after nursing.
-
Liposuction / VASER Liposuction

Restores volume naturally using your own fat.

Who Is a Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?
Good candidates are women who are bothered by physical changes after pregnancy and breastfeeding and are at a stable weight and in good general health. For the longest-lasting results, we generally recommend waiting until you are finished having children and have completed breastfeeding, since a future pregnancy can reverse the improvements.
That said, every situation is unique, and the best way to know if a mommy makeover is right for you is a personal consultation.
Procedure
The Mommy Makeover Procedure
1 Consultation
Your surgeon evaluates your goals, health history, and the areas you'd like to address, then designs a customized surgical plan and explains exactly what to expect.
2 Surgery
Combining procedures into a single surgical session means one anesthesia event and one recovery period, which many mothers prefer. Surgery time varies with the combination chosen.
3 Recovery
You'll receive detailed aftercare instructions and a recovery timeline tailored to your procedures, designed to get you back to family life as smoothly as possible.
4 Results
As swelling subsides, you'll see a restored, more contoured shape, with results designed to look natural and age well.
Recovery plan
Recovery & Downtime
Recovery depends on which procedures are combined, but most mothers should plan for one to two weeks of limited activity, with help at home during the early days. We design each recovery plan with the realities of motherhood in mind and will walk you through what to expect at every stage.
Results
A mommy makeover delivers comprehensive, long-lasting results that single procedures can't match on their own. With a stable weight and no future pregnancies, the improvements to your breasts, abdomen, and contour are designed to last for years.
