Mommy Makeover Provo, UT | Dr. Elise Mecham

Understanding the Mommy Makeover Procedure

Childbearing dramatically transforms a woman's body, often leaving mothers dissatisfied with their post-pregnancy appearance. Pregnancy and breastfeeding can significantly impact breast volume and abdominal contours, making it challenging to return to pre-pregnancy form through exercise alone.

Comprehensive Body Restoration

A Mommy Makeover typically involves multiple surgical techniques designed to address specific post-pregnancy body changes:

• Breast volume restoration with implants
• Breast lift to reposition nipples and improve shape
• Tummy tuck to remove excess skin and tighten abdominal muscles
• Optional liposuction for additional body contouring

Ideal Candidacy

The procedure is best suited for women who have completed childbearing and are at or near their ideal body weight. It is not a substitute for weight loss or fitness programs but rather a targeted approach to body restoration.

Comprehensive Consultation Process

Dr. Mecham conducts an exhaustive pre-surgical evaluation to ensure patient safety and optimal outcomes. During the consultation, patients can expect a thorough review of:

• Personal surgical goals
• Complete medical history
• Current health status
• Detailed body measurements
• Potential procedure risks and expectations
