Pregnancy is a transformative experience that brings joy, purpose, and love—but it also takes a

significant toll on a woman’s body. The physical effects of pregnancy, childbirth, and

breastfeeding can be difficult to reverse, even with diligent exercise and clean eating. For many

women, regaining their pre-baby body is not just about aesthetics but also about feeling

confident, strong, and like themselves again. A Mommy Makeover at Ocean Plastic Surgery

Center offers a personalized combination of procedures designed to restore your figure and help

you reclaim your confidence.

A Mommy Makeover isn’t a one-size-fits-all surgery. Instead, it’s a customizable treatment plan

that typically combines several procedures into one surgical session to address the most common

physical changes that occur after childbirth. These often include breast sagging or volume loss,

abdominal laxity, excess fat, and skin stretching. By addressing multiple areas at once, a Mommy

Makeover provides comprehensive rejuvenation with a single recovery period.

The most common components of a Mommy Makeover include breast surgery (augmentation,

lift, or reduction), tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), and liposuction. However, each treatment plan

is tailored to the unique needs of the patient. Some women may also include procedures such as

labiaplasty, fat transfer, or even non-surgical treatments like skin resurfacing or injectables for a

complete transformation.

At Ocean Plastic Surgery Center, every Mommy Makeover begins with a private and thorough

consultation with Dr. Raman Mehrzad. During this session, you’ll discuss your post-pregnancy

concerns, lifestyle, goals, and medical history. Dr. Mehrzad will conduct a physical examination

and help determine which combination of procedures will best achieve your desired outcome. He

is known for his compassionate care and ability to deliver results that are natural, balanced, and

beautiful.

Breast changes are among the most significant transformations after pregnancy and

breastfeeding. Many women experience a loss of volume, stretching, sagging, or asymmetry.

Depending on your needs, breast augmentation with implants may be used to restore lost volume,

while a breast lift can reposition and reshape the breasts for a more youthful appearance. In some

cases, a breast reduction is appropriate for women whose breasts became excessively large and

heavy after pregnancy, leading to back pain and discomfort.

The abdomen is another area profoundly affected by pregnancy. The skin and abdominal muscles

stretch to accommodate a growing baby, and in many cases, they don’t return to their pre-

pregnancy state. A tummy tuck addresses these concerns by removing excess skin, tightening

separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), and contouring the waistline. The result is a flatter,

firmer, and more toned midsection. When combined with liposuction, which targets stubborn fat

deposits in the flanks, thighs, or hips, the procedure provides even more dramatic reshaping.

One of the biggest advantages of a Mommy Makeover is efficiency. Because multiple procedures

are performed during one surgical session, patients only go through one recovery period. This isespecially beneficial for busy mothers who want to minimize downtime and return to their

families and routines as quickly as possible. Most Mommy Makeover procedures are performed

under general anesthesia in an accredited surgical facility, with the surgery typically lasting

between four to six hours, depending on the number and complexity of procedures involved.

Recovery from a Mommy Makeover requires rest, support, and commitment to post-operative

care. Swelling, bruising, and discomfort are expected in the initial days following surgery, but

these symptoms are manageable with medication and proper care. Patients should plan to take at

least two weeks off from work and avoid heavy lifting or strenuous activity for six to eight

weeks. It’s essential to have help with childcare and household responsibilities during the initial

phase of recovery. Dr. Mehrzad and his team provide detailed aftercare instructions and schedule

regular follow-ups to ensure optimal healing.

Results from a Mommy Makeover become increasingly visible as swelling subsides and the

body heals. Patients often describe feeling more aligned with their appearance and experiencing

a renewed sense of femininity and confidence. While the physical transformation is profound, the

emotional benefits are equally impactful. Looking in the mirror and seeing a stronger,

rejuvenated version of yourself can have lasting positive effects on self-esteem and overall well-

being.

As with any surgical procedure, safety is a top priority. At Ocean Plastic Surgery Center, all

Mommy Makeover procedures are performed in our state-of-the-art accredited surgical suite

under the care of experienced, board-certified professionals. We conduct thorough medical

evaluations and pre-operative assessments to ensure that each patient is healthy and well-

prepared for surgery. Risks such as infection, bleeding, poor wound healing, and anesthesia-

related complications are rare but are carefully reviewed and mitigated through meticulous

surgical planning and post-operative care.

The cost of a Mommy Makeover varies depending on the number and type of procedures

performed. On average, the price ranges from $15,000 to $25,000. This comprehensive fee

includes the surgeon’s fees, anesthesia, facility costs, follow-up appointments, and all pre-

operative care. Financing plans are available, and our team is happy to assist you in exploring

options that make your transformation more financially accessible.

Choosing a skilled and compassionate surgeon is essential when undergoing such a personal and

comprehensive procedure. Dr. Raman Mehrzad is known for his artistic eye, surgical expertise,

and patient-first philosophy. He understands that a Mommy Makeover is not just about external

appearance—it’s about healing, empowerment, and reclaiming a sense of self after giving so

much of yourself to motherhood.
