Awake Mommy Makeover in Dallas (No General Anesthesia)
A Mommy Makeover is a set of cosmetic procedures designed to help women restore their pre-pregnancy body contours. Childbirth can significantly change a woman’s body, and while diet and exercise can help, many women struggle to regain their shape. Our Mommy Makeover package is flexible, allowing you to customize the procedures to meet your unique needs. Typically, a Mommy Makeover includes a combination of procedures such as a tummy tuck, and liposuction, but it can also include other treatments based on your individual goals. This comprehensive approach provides significant benefits, including improved body contours, enhanced self-confidence, and a boost in overall well-being. Ideal candidates are women who have completed their families, are in good health, and want to restore their body shape after pregnancy and childbirth.
What is Included in a Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover is tailored to each patient, offering a combination of procedures that best address their unique concerns. Here are the main components:
Lift
Lift procedures are designed to restore lost volume and correct sagging. These procedures can help enhance breast shape and position, giving a more youthful and lifted appearance. The recovery process typically involves some swelling and bruising, with most patients resuming normal activities within a few weeks. The results are long-lasting and can provide a significant improvement in the breast appearance.
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
A tummy tuck addresses the separation of abdominal muscles and excess skin that often occur after pregnancy. This procedure tightens the abdominal muscles and removes extra skin, resulting in a flatter and firmer stomach. The recovery period involves several weeks of limited activity, but the outcome is a dramatically improved abdominal contour and the removal of most stretch marks.
Liposuction
Liposuction plays an important role in a Mommy Makeover by removing stubborn fat deposits that do not respond to diet and exercise. The most common areas that are treated include the abdomen, thighs, and love handles. Liposuction helps sculpt the body, creating smoother and more contoured lines. Recovery is relatively quick, with most patients returning to their daily routines within a week.
Fat Transfer
Fat transfer is used to enhance areas like the breasts, buttocks, and face by using your own body fat. This procedure involves harvesting fat from one part of the body and injecting it into areas that need volume and contouring. The benefits include using natural tissue for augmentation, which reduces the risk of rejection and provides a more natural look and feel. Recovery is minimal, with some swelling and bruising that subsides within a few weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Awake Mommy Makeover?
Answer: An Awake Mommy Makeover is a customized combination of cosmetic procedures performed using local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia. Patients remain awake and comfortable during the procedure, which can include awake liposuction, fat transfer, and/or an awake tummy tuck depending on individual needs.
How is an Awake Mommy Makeover different from a traditional Mommy Makeover?
Answer: Traditional mommy makeovers are typically performed under general anesthesia. An awake mommy makeover avoids general anesthesia, which may reduce anesthesia-related risks, shorten recovery time, and allow for real-time feedback during the procedure.
Who is a good candidate for an Awake Mommy Makeover?
Answer: Ideal candidates are women who are finished having children, are in generally good health, and are seeking body contouring without undergoing general anesthesia. A consultation is required to determine candidacy and which procedures are appropriate.
What is recovery like after an Awake Mommy Makeover?
Answer: Recovery varies depending on the procedures performed. Many patients are able to return to light activity sooner compared to traditional surgery, but full recovery timelines are discussed during the consultation based on the treatment plan.
