Timeless Rejuvenation
After pregnancy, your abdomen might feel looser, your breasts may sit lower, and certain areas of your body might be holding onto fat no matter how consistently you work out.
At Wes Plastic Surgery in San Francisco, our mommy makeover focus stays on creating results for patients that look natural in motion, in clothing, and in everyday life.
A mommy makeover is a combination of surgeries that improve areas of the body commonly affected by pregnancy and weight changes.
The focus is on addressing multiple concerns simultaneously, such as loose abdominal skin, changes in breast volume or position, and stubborn fat deposits.
Since every mommy makeover is different, the exact combination of procedures will depend on your anatomy, goals, and the level of correction needed to achieve a natural, proportional outcome.
An arm lift is sometimes included when there is loose or hanging skin along the upper arms that does not respond to exercise. It removes excess skin and refines the contour, creating a smoother, more toned appearance that better matches the rest of the upper body.
Breast augmentation restores volume that may have been lost after pregnancy or breastfeeding. Implants are used to enhance fullness and improve overall shape, helping the breasts look more balanced with the rest of the body.
This combination is used when both volume loss and sagging are present. The lift repositions the breast, while the implant restores fullness. Together, they create a more youthful shape with improved projection and position.
A breast lift focuses on repositioning the breast tissue and nipple without adding volume. It is ideal for patients who are happy with their size but want to correct sagging and improve overall shape.
For patients who feel their breasts are too large or heavy, a reduction removes excess tissue and reshapes the breast. This can improve comfort while also creating better proportions with the rest of the body.
Liposuction is used to remove stubborn pockets of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. It is often applied to areas such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and back to refine the overall contour and enhance the results of other procedures.
A tummy tuck addresses loose abdominal skin and weakened muscles. It removes excess skin and tightens the underlying muscle structure, creating a flatter and more defined midsection. This is often a central component of a mommy makeover.
The best candidates are patients in the San Francisco area who are in good overall health and are at or near a stable weight. A mommy makeover is usually considered after you are finished having children, since future pregnancies can affect the results.
Candidates often feel that certain areas of their body no longer reflect their effort or lifestyle. This can include loose skin in the abdomen, changes in breast shape or volume, or stubborn fat deposits.

The biggest advantage of a mommy makeover is that it addresses multiple concerns in one plan. Instead of treating each area separately, everything is addressed together, creating a more balanced and cohesive result.
There is also the benefit of a single recovery period. Combining procedures means you go through the healing process once, rather than spacing out multiple surgeries over time.
Patients often notice improvements in how their clothing fits, how their body feels in motion, and how their overall proportions come together. The changes are not just about individual areas but also about how those areas relate to each other.
Results are long-lasting when supported by a stable lifestyle. Once excess skin is removed and structure is restored, those improvements tend to hold over time.
The first step is to call our office in San Francisco and speak with our friendly practice manager, Julie. She will respond to your questions, outline the treatment process, and help you make a decision about whether you would like to book an in-person consultation with Dr. Wes. There is no cost for this call, and no commitment or pressure is involved.
If you decide to move forward with your mommy makeover, you will meet with Dr. Wes for a comprehensive medical and physical evaluation. This is where your concerns are discussed in detail, and a customized plan is created. Instead of focusing on a single area, the relationships among different areas of the physique are considered to determine which combination of procedures will yield the best outcome. Dr. Wes will go over your surgical plan, recovery timeline, and questions, and make sure you feel comfortable with every part of the process.
On the day of your mommy makeover, anesthesia is used so you remain comfortable throughout.
The procedures are performed in a planned sequence, depending on what is included in your makeover.
Once all procedures are finished, incisions are closed, and dressings are applied. In some cases, drains may be placed to help with early healing.
Your Guide to Post-Mommy Makeover Care
There is usually swelling, tightness, and general soreness, especially through the abdomen,n if a tummy tuck is part of the plan. Movement feels limited at first, and you will need to take it easy, particularly when standing, lifting, or reaching.
Compression garments are commonly used to support healing and help control swelling. If drains are placed, they are usually removed within the first week. Walking is encouraged early on, but only in short, controlled movements to maintain circulation without stressing the surgical areas.
By the second week, most patients start to feel more like themselves. You can move around more comfortably, and daily activities become easier to manage. Returning to work depends on your routine, but many patients plan for about 1 to 2 weeks off.
The cost of a Mommy Makeover in San Francisco depends on the procedures included in your plan. Since this is a customized combination, pricing will be based on how many areas are being treated, the complexity of the surgery, and the surgical setting.
