If you have spent the last several years having babies and raising your family you probably haven’t had much time to spend on yourself.


What Is A Mommy Makeover?

It is time to start thinking about you. Moms spend so much of their time looking after their families that they can forget their own needs. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and caring for a family can take a toll on your body, leading to feeling less confident in your body image. If you are looking to boost your confidence and regain your pre-baby shape, then a Mommy Makeover could be right for you. A Mommy Makeover is a fast and efficient rejuvenation of your body that aims to give you back your pre-pregnancy figure and confidence.

Am I a Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?

Women who are not planning any more pregnancies, who are in good health, and who want to regain their pre-pregnancy shape are good candidates for this combination of procedures. More specifically, women who want to restore lost volume and lift to their breasts and who want to substantially reduce stretch marks and extra skin and fat in the abdomen are good candidates for a Mommy Makeover.

A Mommy Makeover is not intended to replace a healthy weight loss program if there is still significant weight to lose.

In addition, women who are unsure whether they will want future babies should postpone the procedure to avoid having to redo it in the future.

Specifically Tailor-Made
for Each Woman

This tailor made combination of procedures is specifically designed to address the unique issues of each patient. Some women may have only one area they are having trouble with, such as a flabby tummy but most have at least two areas that need rejuvenation. The most common reasons to have a Mommy Makeover are to flatten the tummy, to remove stretch marks, and to raise and restore volume to sagging breasts.


Combining Mommy Makeover Procedures Decreases Recovery Time

Some procedures can be combined during one surgery which greatly reduces recovery time and accelerates the final result. Dr. Birely is a top provider of Mommy Makeover surgery in Baltimore. He plans each surgery to accomplish the goals of his patient in as few procedures as is safely possible. Not only does this greatly speed overall recovery time, but it also reduces the risks associated with multiple surgeries such as exposure to anesthesia.

The procedures that are most commonly combined are a tummy tuck with breast augmentation with or without a breast lift. Liposuction is used as needed to further sculpt the feminine curves that have been lost. Some women also need liposuction in other areas such as the upper arms, thighs, and buttocks to complement the core aspects of their unique Mommy Makeover. Dr. Birely is ready to help you achieve your ideal body shape.

Mommy Makeover Baltimore

A Growing Trend

Women seeking a Mommy Makeover in Baltimore can be confident in knowing their surgeon is board certified in all of the many related aspects of a Mommy Makeover. He is a member of the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is certified as a plastic and reconstructive surgeon. He is a perfectionist who is passionate about creating beautiful and natural looking results and has done so in thousands of procedures over the past 25 years.


A smooth recovery requires organization

Proving our Mommy Makeover Baltimore patients with the best care one can hope for requires planning on the part of the patient as well the surgeon. While Dr. Birely will manage the surgery and immediate post operative recovery, planning must be done for the first weeks of at home recovery.

For many women seeking a Mommy Makeover, caring for their children is still a major part of life. If there are toddlers and preschool age children in the family, support during the first few weeks of recovery is vital. Lifting children, driving, and shopping for groceries will need to be delegated to others for the first few weeks at a minimum.

A good post surgical recovery plan includes having as many routine chores done before surgery as possible. This would include grocery shopping, arranging for pet care such as a dog walker, paying bills, filling medication prescriptions, and any other routine tasks that are usually done.

Another key to a smooth recovery would be to set up the recovery area so that necessary items are close to hand. Items like a TV remote, books, tissues, medication, ice packs, etc., should be within arm’s reach. It is helpful to set up the recovery area to avoid stairs particularly when a tummy tuck is part of the Mommy Makeover.

What Procedures Are Included In A

Liposuction can help with stubborn fat in many areas of the body such as the upper arms, upper thighs, love handles, tummy, and buttocks. These can be combined as needed into as few surgeries as possible so as to reduce total recovery time and cost. It also minimizes the number of times you are under anesthesia in several surgical appointments.

A tummy tuck can help you tighten your tummy and reduce the visibility of stretch marks. If you are living with loose abdominal muscles, excess skin, fat, and tissue, or stretch marks, a tummy tuck can restore your pre-baby figure.

Breast augmentation will add volume and fullness to sagging breasts or combined with a breast lift, will also give them back a more youthful perkiness.

How Can I Restore My Figure After Having Children?

A Mommy Makeover is designed to rejuvenate your figure after pregnancy. It is a combination of procedures aimed at resolving all those post-baby body issues you may have attention on such as stretch marks, sagging skin, tummy pooch, sagging breasts, reduced breast volume, or stubborn fat on your thighs, arms, butt, or elsewhere. You can have babies without sacrificing your beach body, a Mommy Makeover helps you regain the confidence to wear what you want and feel good about how you look.

When Should I Consider Getting A Mommy Makeover?

Once you are finished breastfeeding and you aren’t planning on becoming pregnant again then you can consider getting a Mommy Makeover. Making sure that you have adequate help and support during the recovery time is a must as you won’t be able to do any heavy lifting and most tasks and activities will be prohibited during the recovery period.

What About Becoming Pregnant After A Mommy Makeover?

It is best to not plan on becoming pregnant after a Mommy Makeover as the results of the makeover may not withstand the pregnancy and the combination of surgery and subsequent pregnancy is an unnecessary strain on your body. Also, any breast or nipple reconstruction before breastfeeding could complicate your ability to breastfeed.

The surgery does not interfere with your ability to become pregnant so it will still be an option for you but you may not retain your makeover figure after the pregnancy.

Which Procedures Will I Need?

Depending on how many problem areas you want to target and how many surgeries you will need to restore your pre-baby body, there will be options customizable for your needs. All of your concerns will be taken up during your initial consultation with Dr. Birely who will assist you in planning the best course of action for obtaining beautiful results. This could be as simple as removing some stubborn fat, to completely rejuvenate your thighs, tummy, and breasts.

How Long Does It Take To Recover?

The recovery period depends on your body and the combination of procedures that were utilized in your particular makeover. Most people can expect to return to work or normal activity around the 2-week mark after a tummy tuck and/or breast reconstruction. Full recovery could take up to a couple of months to fully see the results of the procedures.

Will There Be Scarring?

Scarring is always to be anticipated but fine and minimal after healing and the incisions are always made where they would be the least visible. Tummy tuck incisions are below the panty line and breast augmentation or reconstruction incisions are done so as to be around or below the nipple and along the breast crease.

What Should I Plan For During My Recovery Period?

Plan on having help at home during this time as you won’t be able to move about as easily and must avoid stretching or lifting. Having someone you trust to help you with bathing and other household tasks is a must. Having things set up and major chores completed pre-surgery and then assistance and childcare arranged for up to two weeks post-surgery.

You will be given an in-depth guide on how to take care of the surgical sites and yourself during recovery and a breakdown of what to expect through the first days and weeks.

How Much Exercise Is Encouraged?

After surgery, walking and light activity are recommended. No heavy lifting or strenuous exercise is allowed until you have made a full recovery and are given the go-ahead by Dr. Birely. We can recommend exercises suitable to the recovery period.

Is Financing Available?

Financing is available, talk to our office about the options that will allow you to undergo your procedures with reasonable payment plans.
