Sacramento Mommy Makeover at Folsom Plastic Surgery
Pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding take a toll on a woman’s body, and it can be a struggle to snap back with diet and exercise alone. Many women experience permanent changes to their breasts and skin, and find it challenging to lose all their baby weight. A Mommy Makeover is a term for a combination of procedures that aim to restore a woman’s body after childbirth. This highly customized surgical approach requires a skilled and experienced plastic surgeon, such as Dr. Shahriar Mabourakh.
At Folsom Plastic Surgery, Dr. Mabourakh focuses on each patient’s goals, investing time and energy in fostering a solid foundation of trust between the doctor and patient. He believes the best patient is a well-informed one who understands their chosen procedure and feels empowered to ask questions and bring up their concerns.

The average cost of a Mommy Makeover in California ranges from $15,000 to $30,000, although this can vary. Due to the customized nature of Mommy Makeovers, prices are subject to the procedures chosen and their relative complexity, other associated fees, and the experience of your plastic surgeon.

What Is a Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover reshapes a woman’s appearance to address changes caused by pregnancy, childbirth, weight fluctuations, and the aging process. Each woman is unique and may have specific concerns with their breasts, abdomen, waist, buttocks, or genitalia. A Mommy Makeover includes procedures that address your aesthetic goals for one or more of these areas. The right combination for your needs depends on your anatomy, overall health, and cosmetic concerns.
What Are My Mommy Makeover Options?
Typically, Mommy Makeovers include a form of breast surgery, such as breast augmentation with breast implants or fat transfer, breast lift, or breast reduction. Tummy tucks (abdominoplasty) and liposuction are often included in Mommy Makeovers to address outstretched abdominal muscles (diastasis recti) and loose, sagging skin. A Mommy Makeover may also involve labiaplasty, as this area can undergo significant changes during pregnancy and after childbirth.
What Are the Benefits of a Mommy Makeover?
There are many benefits of a Mommy Makeover, including a one-time, simultaneous procedure that addresses all of your concerns at once. Women who choose Mommy Makeovers only have to go through a single recovery and meet their aesthetic goals much faster than if they pursued these procedures separately. Other benefits of a Mommy Makeover include:
- Reduced fees
- Fully customized results
- Increased self-confidence
- Enjoying certain types of clothing and activities with a renewed sense of self
Depending on the number of procedures you choose and their relative complexity, Dr. Mabourakh may recommend that your surgery be spaced over two sessions for your safety. However, in most cases, Dr. Mabourakh will attempt to combine the procedures in a single session.
Who Is an Ideal Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?
Candidates for a Mommy Makeover want to address multiple areas of the body for a natural-looking yet impactful transformation. Some may be postpartum and looking to regain their pre-baby bodies, while others are noticing changes associated with aging and want to address multiple concerns simultaneously. Additionally, ideal candidates for a Mommy Makeover:
- Are generally in good health
- Do not smoke or are willing to quit
- Want to address multiple concerns in one surgery
- Have reasonable expectations for results
The best way to determine if you are a candidate for a Mommy Makeover is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Mabourakh, who will discuss your goals with you and help you determine if this procedure is right for you. Call (916) 984-8585 for our Folsom location, (209) 464-5656 for our Stockton location, or fill out the contact form to get started.
How Is a Mommy Makeover Performed?
Your Consultation
The first step to your Mommy Makeover is to have a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Mabourakh. During this meeting, you’ll discuss your goals for the procedure, including which combination of surgeries you are interested in. If you’re unsure, Dr. Mabourakh can recommend the procedures and techniques that will best suit your goals and anatomy.
Your consultation is also a great time to ask questions about the procedure steps, recovery, and what you can expect from the results. Dr. Mabourakh will walk you through the process, provide you with Mommy Makeover before and after images, and review everything you want to know.
If you and Dr. Mabourakh agree that a Mommy Makeover is right for you, he will create a surgical plan that details the procedures you’ll undergo, and lastly, provide you with an accurate cost estimate.
The Mommy Makeover Procedure
Each Mommy Makeover is highly customized to the patient’s specific needs, goals, and anatomy. No two procedures are alike. A Mommy Makeover is an outpatient procedure, meaning a trusted adult will take you home the same day of your surgery. As this is a combination procedure in which Dr. Mabourakh performs multiple procedures in a sequence, our board-certified anesthesiologist will administer general anesthesia. This ensures your comfort and safety, as the Mommy Makeover surgical session can be longer than average.
Once you are safely under anesthesia, Dr. Mabourakh will begin surgery. The number and complexity of the procedures will determine the order in which they are performed. For example, liposuction is typically performed first, especially when fat grafting is required. Dr. Mabourakh will discuss the order of your procedures during your consultation.
Once each procedure is complete and all the incisions are neatly sutured, you will be monitored as you wake up from the anesthesia.
Preparing for Your Mommy Makeover
Dr. Mabourakh will give you specific instructions for preparing for your procedure, designed to help make the process as safe and effective as possible. Some possible instructions may include:
- Blood tests or other diagnostics for pre-surgery screening
- To stop or pause blood thinners or supplements that can interfere with surgery or healing
- To quit smoking and using all nicotine products
- Take adequate time off work and other responsibilities for the recovery period
- Fill necessary prescriptions
- Ask a friend or family member to pick you up from surgery and help you around the house
Mommy Makeover Recovery & Aftercare
Mommy Makeover recovery is more intensive than other procedures, although you’re only experiencing one recovery period as opposed to multiple if you undergo these procedures separately. This does mean, however, that you’ll have to be very mindful of your own limitations and health as you recover, because your body will be undergoing a significant amount of healing in the first few weeks.
Dr. Mabourakh will provide you with recovery and aftercare instructions that are specific to the unique collection of procedures you have done, but some general Mommy Makeover recovery guidelines are as follows:
- Expect your recovery process to be as long as the most intensive procedure; in most cases, this is the tummy tuck.
- Be prepared to limit your physical activity for at least a month; most patients can return to a desk job after two weeks.
- Each patient is different. Listen to your body and do not try to rush the process.
- Try to balance plenty of rest with some light activity to encourage healthy blood circulation.
- Wear your compression garments, day and night, as instructed by Dr. Mabourakh.
- Follow all instructions and always err on the side of caution. If you have any questions about your recovery or would like to incorporate more into your daily routine, please call the office and ask Dr. Mabourakh.
What Results Can I Expect From a Mommy Makeover?
A Mommy Makeover is called a “makeover” for a reason: expect a dramatic transformation after you’ve healed! Most patients will notice immediate changes to their bodies after surgery, especially after a tummy tuck or breast enhancement.
After about the second week, you’ll start to see more impactful changes as your swelling and bruising dissipate, especially for breast enhancement. Tummy tuck results are also noticeable, although they will continue to improve for several weeks as swelling dissipates and the abdominal wall heals.
After the final healing stages (which are different for everyone), you’ll see your new physique: a tightened, toned abdomen; lifted or enhanced, youthful breasts; slimmer contours and curves; or a labia minora that is neat and comfortable.
With a Mommy Makeover, you are in control of your new self, thanks to the help of Dr. Mabourakh.
