About the Mommy Makeover Procedure
St. Petersburg plastic surgeon Dr. John J. O'Brien Jr. specializes in mommy makeover procedures designed to help women reclaim their pre-pregnancy silhouette. Childbirth can significantly transform body contours, leaving many women feeling self-conscious about their appearance.
Comprehensive Body Restoration
The mommy makeover procedure combines multiple surgical techniques to reshape and rejuvenate body areas affected by pregnancy, including:
- Breast reshaping
- Abdominal contouring
- Liposuction
- Skin removal
Ideal Candidates
Ideal candidates for a mommy makeover are women who have completed childbearing and struggle to restore their pre-pregnancy body through diet and exercise alone. Typical concerns include sagging breasts, loose abdominal skin, and stubborn fat deposits.
Surgical Technique
Each mommy makeover is a custom surgical plan tailored to the patient's specific needs. Procedures typically include breast lift, abdominoplasty, and liposuction performed under general anesthesia. The surgery duration ranges from 3-7 hours, depending on the complexity of the chosen procedures.

Recovery from a mommy makeover is a gradual process. Patients can expect initial limitations in mobility and will require careful adherence to post-operative instructions. Most women can return to normal activities within several weeks, with full recovery taking approximately six months.
