It’s no secret that pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding can change your body dramatically.

Luckily, you can get it back with a mommy makeover from Dr. Soler at Soler Cosmetic Plastic Surgery.
Dr. Soler has over 20 years of experience in cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, during which he has helped many patients achieve their ideal appearance. His technical expertise and attention to detail have made him a top choice for many patients.
What Is a Mommy Makeover?
Many parts of a woman’s body change during pregnancy to accommodate the growing baby. As a result, the breasts may sag or lose volume, the abdomen may take on extra weight or loose skin, and you may gain weight in other areas that were previously thin or toned. A mommy makeover can help you return to your pre-pregnancy figure, and your exact procedures may vary based on your specific needs.
Possible procedures in a mommy makeover are:
Should I Get a Mommy Makeover?
Pregnancy and motherhood can take a toll on your body, and if you decide to opt for surgery, it is important to make sure this decision is best for you and you alone. Ideal candidates for mommy makeover surgery are women with no plans to have more children, at their ideal body weight, and in good physical and medical health. Scheduling a consultation with Dr. Soler will allow you to review your surgery options and discuss whether our mommy makeover services will help you reach your desired appearance.
What Does Recovery Look Like for a Mommy Makeover?
The recovery process for a mommy makeover will depend on how many procedures you undergo. Undergoing more procedures may mean a longer recovery time. For some procedures, you may receive an elastic girdle afterward that reduces swelling while tightening the skin. For a smaller surgery, your doctor may prescribe oral medication to reduce any pain or swelling.
Depending on the surgery you receive, you may need to spend a few nights at a nursing facility or hospital for observation, medication, or catheters. Any pain or bruising will typically subside in a month, and you can start strenuous activities again in about six weeks.
During your initial consultation with Dr. Soler, he will discuss the recovery process and any risks associated with your mommy makeover. While all surgical procedures have some level of risk, mommy makeovers rarely see serious complications.
Why Choose Dr. Soler for Your Mommy Makeover Needs
There are many reasons why Dr. Soler is a top choice for many patients’ cosmetic and reconstructive surgery needs, with one reason being his patient-first attitude. From the initial consultation to the final check-up, Dr. Soler encourages his patients to ask questions. By meeting and tailoring his surgical plan to patient goals, Dr. Soler ensures his patients feel completely satisfied throughout the entire mommy makeover experience.
Does a Mommy Makeover Qualify for Insurance Coverage?
Mommy makeovers are cosmetic surgeries and do not qualify for insurance coverage. Patients can explore two financing options to cover their medical costs:
- CareCredit: CareCredit offers a range of flexible financing options with limits ranging from $1 to $25,000.
- ALPHAEON CREDIT Card: ALPHAEON CREDIT cards are a flexible financing option, allowing you to undergo plastic surgery without delay, thanks to a range of affordable monthly payment options.
