Having kids can change a woman’s body. However, with the help of a skilled plastic surgeon in Dubai, you can get back your ideal body through a series of procedures.
It is a natural fact that a woman’s body goes through various biological changes during pregnancy and shortly after. This is because the body tends to change some of its aspects to create a better environment in readiness for the new baby.
However, even though this is a natural phenomenon, it would be true to note that some women may not be as happy with their bodies as before pregnancy. If you fall within this category, then you’re in the right place.
Thanks to advancements in medicine and surgery, women can now get improvements done on their bodies after pregnancy. This is done in a bid to boost the body contours and eventually give you self-confidence.
This is all thanks to a mommy makeover, which you can get from Dr. Tarek Aesthetics, hands down one of the best plastic surgeons in Dubai.
What is a mommy makeover?
A mommy makeover is a term used for a personalized set of cosmetic procedures designed to help women address the common effects of childbearing. This often includes procedures on the face, breasts, and body to help restore or even improve their pre-pregnancy appearance.
Mommy makeovers in Dubai can include surgical procedures, non-surgical treatments, or a combination of both.
Why should I consider a mommy makeover?
Pregnancy can leave long-lasting, often unwanted, effects on your body and overall appearance. You may have to deal with sagging breasts, loose skin, and stretched abdominal muscles.
These effects can possibly leave some women with low self-esteem, especially if they loved how they looked pre-pregnancy. By addressing all these ‘unwanted’ effects of pregnancy on your body, a mommy makeover gives you the appearance that you desire, making you feel more confident and happy with your body.
Each patient has their own personal goals, and that’s why at Dr. Tarek Aesthetics, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach. Our surgeons will first assess your condition, listen to your desires, and discuss the options and approaches that you can take to get your ideal body.
A mommy makeover seeks to address many issues, but some of the most common ones include:
Components of a mommy makeover
The breasts and abdomen are the two primary areas of change that come with motherhood. A mommy makeover generally focuses on these two regions, with emphasis on breast and abdominal procedures. Throughout pregnancy, abdominal muscles, skin, and tissues stretch to safely accommodate the growing baby. Unfortunately, these layers may not bounce back to how they were before the pregnancy journey began.
To achieve the pre-baby appearance, some of the most common mommy makeover components include procedures like:

Through breast augmentation, breast implants are used to restore the fullness and lost volume of the breasts.
It is a no-brainer that your breasts will most likely sag after childbirth. A breast lift helps to ‘lift’ sagging skin on the breasts to give them a better shape and fuller appearance.
Your breasts are also likely to grow bigger during your pregnancy. In some cases, some women can get disproportionately large, uncomfortable breasts. If this is the case, our experienced plastic surgeons in Dubai will recommend breast reduction surgery to give you a smaller, more ideal appearance.
You can also improve your figure or body shape through added techniques like tummy tuck — also known as abdominoplasty — and liposuction.
However, a mommy makeover doesn’t necessarily have to stop there. You can boost your appearance through other procedures like an arm lift (Brachioplasty). You can also opt for additional services like fillers, injection lipolysis, or a thread lift.
A mommy makeover in Dubai can be done during one single operation, or for safety reasons, spread out over multiple sessions. You can discuss these options with your surgeon at Dr. Tarek Aesthetics.
When is the best time for a mommy makeover?
Determining when to get a mommy makeover is entirely a personal decision. However, there are certain factors that you may have to consider, or as advised by your doctor, before settling on getting a mommy makeover. Some of the considerations to make include:
Ideally, a mommy makeover is best recommended for people that do not plan on becoming pregnant again in the foreseeable future. If you plan to get another child, your surgeon will guide you on the best procedures to consider, not necessarily those involving going under the scalpel.
Recovery and expectations
Your recovery and expectations are entirely dependent on the procedures that you undertook. You can refer above to all the individual procedures and how long they can take to heal. Your surgeon will give you the necessary instructions and prescription drugs to help make your recovery process a breeze.
