Reclaim Your Pre-Pregnancy Confidence

Entering motherhood is a transformative experience. Pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding are beautiful components of this journey that can significantly change your body. It’s natural to feel self-conscious about these changes and long for your pre-pregnancy shape. A Mommy Makeover is a comprehensive solution designed to address multiple areas of concern, helping you restore your body and boost your confidence. At Fulcrum Aesthetics in Chicago, our team is led by Dr. David Hill and nurse practitioner Brittony Croasdell, who combine advanced techniques with personalized care to deliver exceptional, natural-looking results.

What Is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is a customized combination of cosmetic procedures designed to address the physical changes due to pregnancy and childbirth. This comprehensive approach allows women to target multiple areas of concern in a single surgical session, resulting in a more streamlined recovery and enhanced overall results. Common procedures included in a Mommy Makeover in Chicago at Fulcrum Aesthetics include the following:

  • Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty): A tummy tuck removes excess skin and tightens abdominal muscles for a flatter, more toned midsection.
  • Breast Augmentation or Lift: These procedures restore volume and lift sagging breasts for a more youthful and balanced appearance.
  • Liposuction: Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits from the abdomen, thighs, and hips to improve body contours.
  • Fat Grafting: Fat transfer enhances volume and shape in areas such as the buttocks or breasts using your body’s fat.

The specific combination of procedures will be tailored to your unique needs and aesthetic goals, ensuring that your Mommy Makeover addresses all your concerns effectively.

What to Expect: The Mommy Makeover Procedure

At Fulcrum Aesthetics in Chicago, our Mommy Makeover procedure is designed to provide comprehensive and lasting results focusing on your comfort and safety. Here’s what you can expect during your Mommy Makeover journey:

  1. Consultation: Your journey begins with an in-depth consultation, during which we evaluate your areas of concern, discuss your goals, and create a tailored treatment plan.
  2. Preparation: On the day of the procedure, you will receive pre-operative instructions, and anesthesia will be administered to ensure your comfort throughout the surgery.
  3. Surgery: The specific procedures included in your Mommy Makeover will be performed in a single surgical session, addressing multiple areas of concern.
  4. Suturing: The incisions are closed with fine sutures, and compression garments may be applied to support the healing process and reduce swelling.
  5. Post-Procedure Care: After the surgery, you will be monitored as you wake from anesthesia. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.

Mommy Makeover Recovery & Results

Recovery from a Mommy Makeover varies depending on the extent of the procedures performed and your healing process. Most patients experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the initial days following surgery, which gradually subside over a few weeks. Following our post-operative care instructions is essential, including wearing compression garments, avoiding strenuous activities, and keeping the incision sites clean.

Swelling and bruising typically peak within the first week and then improve. Most patients can return to light activities within a few weeks, while more strenuous activities should be avoided for several weeks.

The initial results of your Mommy Makeover are usually noticeable once the swelling begins to subside, with final results becoming more apparent over the coming months. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise, is crucial to preserving the long-lasting effects of your Mommy Makeover.
