Mummy makeover

What does a mummy makeover include?


A mummy makeover generally includes a combination of breast augmentation, liposuction and a tummy tuck in one single procedure. The combined surgeries are designed to create a holistic transformation, addressing aesthetic and medical issues that arise after pregnancy, such as sagging breasts, lax skin in the abdomen, or stubborn pockets of exercise-resistant fat.

Are there any additional risks to having all of the procedures at once?


There are no additional risks involved in undergoing all of the procedures in a mummy makeover at once. Any cosmetic surgery carries some risk of complications, such as infection, delayed incision healing, visible scarring, or allergic reactions to anaesthetic, but the risks of experiencing these are not increased by combining procedures.


What is the recovery time for a mummy makeover?


Many patients feel ready to return to work ten days after your mummy makeover, then beginning some light daily activities after three to four weeks. Full recovery should take around four to six weeks, after which you can return to all daily activities, including strenuous exercise.


How do you plan a mummy makeover procedure?


Planning for a mummy makeover procedure should begin with an initial consultation with an experienced cosmetic surgeon who can listen to your concerns and formulate a treatment plan.

In the run-up to your procedure, ensure that you have taken time off work well in advance and that your home is comfortable in preparation for your recovery - having a calm, relaxing place to spend your downtime is of paramount importance for an optimal recovery.


Who is the ideal candidate for a mummy makeover?


The ideal candidate for a mummy makeover should:

 

  • Be both physically and psychologically healthy, with a BMI of 30 or below. Ideally, they should be as close to their ideal weight as possible
  • Be interested in addressing concerns in the areas of the body changed by pregnancy and child-rearing
  • Be fully informed of what the procedure entails, and have realistic expectations of its outcomes
  • Have decided not to have any further pregnancies and have finished childbearing. Future pregnancies could negatively impact the results of the mummy makeover.
