Mommy Makeover Melbourne, FL | Dermatology + Plastic Surgery: For Your Best Self

The body changes dramatically during pregnancy and lactation, and in many cases, diet and exercise don't fully eliminate stubborn bulges and bumps, nor correct skin laxity. Dermatology + Plastic Surgery, led by double board-certified plastic surgeon Rebecca Novo, MD, and board-certified dermatologist Anita Saluja, MD, provides restorative cosmetic procedures such as the mommy makeover for residents of Melbourne, Viera, Brevard County, and the surrounding communities of Central Florida.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

A mommy makeover is a full rejuvenation treatment that restores a tight, firm body contour with multiple benefits:

• Lifting and augmenting or reducing sagging breasts
• Tightening abdominal muscles to create a flat, toned belly
• Eliminating loose skin and reducing stretch marks in the midsection
• Defining the waistline
• Extracting stubborn fatty bulges from any area of the body

Personalized Procedure Components

The mommy makeover is uniquely tailored to each patient and may combine several procedures to address specific concerns:

Breast Enhancement

Breast enhancement may include procedures to correct sagging and/or alter the size and shape of the breasts. Options may include breast augmentation, breast reduction, or a breast lift to achieve the ideal size and volume.

Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck targets abdominal region concerns by tightening weak muscles and creating waist definition. The procedure can eliminate stretch marks, sagging skin, and other imperfections in the abdominal region.

Liposuction and Body Contouring

Liposuction is commonly included to reduce bulges from fatty deposits and enhance overall body contour.

Candidacy and Eligibility

Despite its name, this procedure is not just for mothers. Almost any healthy adult can benefit, though timing is crucial. It's recommended to postpone the procedure if you are currently pregnant, lactating, or planning future pregnancies.

Recovery Process

Initial recovery involves managing soreness, swelling, and skin tightness. Compression garments support your new shape and reduce swelling. Most patients return to office work within one to two weeks, with full recovery taking four to six weeks.

Cost Considerations

As a customized procedure, costs vary depending on specific treatments. Dermatology + Plastic Surgery offers flexible financing options to make your transformation accessible.
