Mommy Makeover in Lexington, KY

Pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight changes, and aging can affect several areas of the body at once. A mommy makeover is a customized combination of procedures designed to help restore shape, contour, and confidence after these changes.

What Is a Mommy Makeover?

A mommy makeover is not one single procedure. It is a personalized surgical plan that may address the breasts, abdomen, waist, hips, or other areas affected by pregnancy or weight fluctuation.

Common procedures included in a mommy makeover may include:

Breast lift
Breast augmentation
Breast reduction
Tummy tuck
Liposuction
Body contouring
Labiaplasty or other selected procedures

Your treatment plan will be customized based on your concerns and desired result.

Am I a Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?

You may be a candidate if you are in good overall health, have finished having children, are at a stable weight, and want to address changes that have not improved with diet and exercise.

The best candidates have realistic expectations and are able to take time for recovery. During your consultation, Dr. Gerstle will help determine which procedures may be safely combined.

The Mommy Makeover Procedure

Because a mommy makeover is customized, the procedure varies from patient to patient. Some patients focus on the abdomen and waist, while others combine breast surgery with body contouring.

Dr. Gerstle will review your goals, anatomy, and medical history before creating a surgical plan. Safety, natural-looking results, and long-term satisfaction are central to the planning process.

Mommy Makeover Recovery

Recovery depends on the procedures included in your plan. Patients should expect downtime, temporary swelling, soreness, and activity restrictions. Help at home is often recommended during the early recovery period, especially for patients with young children.

Dr. Gerstle and the Lexington Plastic Surgery™ team will provide clear instructions and support throughout your recovery.

The New You—Working With Dr. Gerstle

You will have a private consultation with Dr. Gerstle to discuss your medical history and your cosmetic goals. The doctor will benefit from understanding your reasons for wanting a mommy makeover along with the results you like to see. After performing a physical exam, Dr. Gerstle will present the options that would work for you. He will explain the procedure, anesthesia types, fees, and recovery time. We offer an exclusive, in-office state-of-the-art “mirror imaging” system that can enhance your photos to show you what you will look like after the surgery. This tool is invaluable for giving you a reliable idea of what your results will be.

Once a surgical plan is made, we will schedule the operation to take place at one of our outpatient surgery centers.
