Mommy Makeover in Baton Rouge, LA

Restore Your Pre-Baby Body with a Mommy Makeover

Pregnancy and childbirth can dramatically alter a woman's body, leaving many new mothers wondering how to regain their pre-baby figure. Dr. Taylor Theunissen, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Baton Rouge, offers customized Mommy Makeover procedures to help women rejuvenate their bodies and boost their confidence.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover typically combines breast and body contouring procedures to address common post-pregnancy concerns. Dr. Theunissen tailors each Mommy Makeover to the individual patient's needs, which may include:

• Breast augmentation
• Breast lift
• Liposuction
• Tummy tuck
• Arm and thigh lift
• Facial treatments
• Vaginal rejuvenation (labiaplasty, vaginoplasty)

Ideal Candidates for a Mommy Makeover

Dr. Theunissen recommends Mommy Makeover procedures for women who:

• Have completed childbearing
• Wish to address the effects of pregnancy on their body
• Are in good overall health
• Have realistic expectations for the outcome

Dr. Theunissen's Approach to Mommy Makeovers

Surgical Technique

The specific techniques used during a Mommy Makeover vary based on the patient's unique needs and goals. Dr. Theunissen carefully assesses each patient to determine the most appropriate combination of procedures, which may include breast augmentation with lift, tummy tuck, and liposuction to address common post-pregnancy concerns.

During and After Surgery

Mommy Makeover procedures are typically performed under general anesthesia and can take several hours to complete. While patients can return home the same day, recovery time varies depending on the extent of the procedures performed. Most patients can return to normal activities after 1-2 weeks, with full recovery taking 2-3 weeks.

Mommy Makeover FAQs

Safety of the Procedure

While a Mommy Makeover involves multiple procedures, Dr. Theunissen's expertise and skill help minimize risks associated with combined surgeries.

Pregnancy After Surgery

It is recommended to complete childbearing before undergoing a Mommy Makeover, as future pregnancies may compromise results. Patients uncertain about future pregnancies should discuss their plans with Dr. Theunissen.

Addressing Stretch Marks

Mommy Makeover procedures can significantly reduce the appearance of stretch marks by tightening skin and removing excess tissue. Additional skin rejuvenation treatments may be recommended for optimal results.

Scarring

While some scarring is inevitable with surgical procedures, Dr. Theunissen uses advanced techniques to minimize visible scarring. Most scars can be concealed beneath clothing or swimwear.
