Treat yourself to a Mommy Makeover
“I'd been dreading the thought of turning 30,” says Sonia, a 29-year-old mother of four, “so I decided I to do something for myself to make me continue to feel young.” That's why Sonia recently treated herself to a Mommy Makeover.
As Mother's Day approaches, shouldn't you think about doing something just for you? Maybe it's time for a Mommy Makeover.
What is a Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover is a combination of plastic surgery procedures to restore your figure to its pre-pregnancy shape—and give your spirits a well-deserved lift as well.
Sonia's Mommy Makeover included breast augmentation and a tummy tuck. “A Mommy Makeover is tailored to your individual needs,” Dr. Parungao explains. “Some women also choose a breast lift, liposuction or a facelift. It's entirely up to you.”
Wishing for your pre-pregnancy abs?
Like many moms, Sonia had loose, sagging abdominal skin. “My first pregnancy was twins,” she recalls. “I gained at least 50 pounds, and it was all belly—and I'm only 5’2”. The twins really stretched my stomach out, and I had two more kids after that.”
You can lose weight, but you can't lose skin
“I started working out,” Sonia explains, “and of course, things didn't go back where they belong. I decided it was time to have a Mommy Makeover so I could feel better about myself and my body.
“I lost a dress size before the surgery—but I still had the loose, sagging skin on my belly,” Sonia recalls. “After the tummy tuck, my pants fit so much better around the waist. Now I don't have to hide the belly bulges.”
Have your breasts lost their youthful volume?
Sonia also experienced something familiar to many moms: a loss of breast fullness after her pregnancies. “Before my children, I was a C cup,” she recalls. “After the kids, I went down to a B—then down to an A cup when I lost weight.” Sonia chose saline implants and is very happy with her results. “I went up to a D cup—one size bigger than my original size,” she says.
Now Sonia is eager for swimsuit season. “I just bought my first nice bikini,” she laughs. “It feels great! Now I don't have to hide behind a towel or worry about anything falling out. I don't think I'm going to be shy anymore!
“I'm always doing things for everyone else,” she adds. “It's such a wonderful feeling to do something just for myself.”

before and after

A Mommy Makeover—in this case, a breast augmentation and tummy tuck—can help restore a woman's pre-pregnancy figure.

Breast augmentation
is now most popular procedure
Breast augmentation is now America's most popular plastic surgery procedure in the U.S., according to just-released statistics from the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).
“For the first time in the 12 years these statistics have been collected, liposuction is a runner-up in popularity to breast augmentation,” notes ASAPS President Alan Gold, MD.
Dr. Gold reflects that “changes in fashion, i.e., décolletage-baring styles, might be a factor behind this change.”
Ask Dr. Parungao
Is it safe to have more than one plastic surgery procedure done at the same time?
Studies have shown that having more than one plastic surgery procedure at a time is no more dangerous than undergoing a single procedure, as long as the surgery does not take more than 4-1/2 to 5 hours. In most cases, a breast augmentation and tummy tuck can be done in combination.
Have a question? Ask Dr. Parungao.
