After pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, many women feel their breasts and bodies are in need of repair.

At UVA Plastic Surgery, our experienced plastic surgeons can safely combine cosmetic surgery procedures to provide a complete result with a mommy makeover. In Charlottesville and Fishersville, the women from Richmond, Roanoke, and beyond who choose our world-class team of plastic surgeons can be confident about their safety and the quality of their results.

A mommy makeover is well-suited to women who meet the following criteria:
In addition to enhancing their appearance and confidence, mommy makeover patients appreciate a variety of advantages over having the procedures performed separately. These advantages include limited exposure to anesthetic, reduced cost, and needing just a single recovery period.
Our plastic surgeons personalize mommy makeovers to the unique anatomy and aesthetic goals of each patient. These procedures typically include a combination of the following options:
During the consultation, the surgeon performs a thorough physical exam and talks with the patient about the specific concerns she has about her body. The surgeon will then create a surgical plan designed to provide the desired improvements safely.
At UVA Plastic Surgery, our highly regarded surgeons offer expertise and personalized care for a rewarding patient experience.
Meet Our SurgeonsOur surgeons typically perform mommy makeovers as outpatient surgery using a general anesthetic. The surgical details vary with the procedures performed. During surgery, anatomic nerve blocks and advanced, non-narcotic IV medications are used to minimize postoperative pain.
Recovery after mommy makeover surgery varies widely with individual patient factors and the procedures performed. To avoid complications and facilitate the healing process, it is important to have an adult in the home to care for babies and small children for at least the first week.
In general, patients need to take off about 2 weeks from work after mommy makeover surgery. While most moms don’t have time available for separate recoveries, mommy makeover patients attain multiple improvements with a single recovery period.
