Mommy Makeover Seattle

The benefits go far beyond just looking better. Here's what a mommy makeover can do for you:

• Remove the loose, hanging skin on your belly that won't go away
• Restore fullness and lift to breasts that have deflated after nursing
• Create a flatter, more toned tummy
• Minimize the appearance of stretch marks
• Fix diastasis recti - that's when your ab muscles separate during pregnancy
• Improve your overall body proportions
• Get everything done in one surgery instead of multiple procedures
• See complete results sooner
• Go through recovery just once
• Feel like yourself again - just better

Every mommy makeover is different because every mom's body and goals are unique. The total cost depends on which procedures you need and the extent of each surgery.

At Allure Esthetic, we create customized packages for each patient. You can get a rough idea of pricing by using our Price Simulator. Just add the procedures you're interested in and you'll receive a preliminary quote instantly. During your consultation, Dr. Sajan will give you an exact price for your personalized treatment plan.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding can really change your breasts. Some women lose volume and end up with deflated-looking breasts. Others find their breasts have sagged significantly. The good news is we have several options to restore your breasts to their pre-baby body, or even better.

Your Breast Enhancement Options:

Breast Augmentation
If you've lost breast volume after having kids, implants can restore fullness and create better proportions. During your consultation, Dr. Sajan will help you choose between FDA-approved saline implants (filled with sterile salt water) or silicone implants (filled with cohesive gel). You'll also decide on the size and shape that best fits your body and lifestyle. Many moms are surprised to learn they can choose a very natural look that simply restores what pregnancy took away.

Breast Lift
Sometimes the issue isn't volume; it's position. If your breasts have sagged after pregnancy and breastfeeding, a lift can reposition them higher on your chest where they used to be. Dr. Sajan removes excess skin and tightens what remains to create a more youthful appearance. He'll also resize your areolas if they've stretched during breastfeeding.

Breast Augmentation with Lift
Many mothers need both procedures - adding volume while also lifting everything back into place. This combination gives the most dramatic transformation and is one of our most popular choices for moms who want to feel confident in and out of clothes.

Your abdomen goes through major changes during pregnancy, and the six-pack muscles (rectus abdominis) can stretch apart in the middle. Some medical definitions describe diastasis recti as a gap of about 2.7 cm at the belly button area, which helps explain why many women notice a weaker core or a persistent belly bulge after pregnancy. After delivery, it’s also common to have loose skin and stubborn fat that may not respond to exercise alone.

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

A traditional tummy tuck is often the centerpiece of a mommy makeover. This procedure removes the loose, hanging skin between your belly button and pubic area - including most stretch marks in that zone. But it's not just about removing excess skin. Dr. Sajan also repairs and tightens your abdominal muscles, which often separate during pregnancy (diastasis recti). This creates a flatter, firmer abdomen that looks toned and natural.

Reverse Tummy Tuck

Some women have loose skin only in their upper abdomen. For these patients, Dr. Sajan can perform a reverse tummy tuck, which removes excess skin through an incision hidden under the breast fold. This specialized technique is perfect when combined with breast surgery.

Mini Tummy Tuck

If you just have a small pouch below your belly button that won't go away, you might be a candidate for a mini tummy tuck. This less invasive option uses a shorter incision and has a quicker recovery time while still providing excellent results for the right patient.

Your safety is the top priority throughout your entire journey. From your first consultation through your final follow-up, we make sure you're fully informed and comfortable with every aspect of your procedure.

Dr. Sajan operates in a JCAHO-accredited surgical facility, which means we meet the highest standards for patient safety. The CDC guidelines for surgical safety are strictly followed to minimize any risk of complications.

Before surgery, we'll review your complete medical history and any medications you take. You'll receive detailed pre-operative instructions on how to prepare, what to expect, and how to ensure the smoothest possible recovery. Our team is available 24/7 after surgery to answer questions and address any concerns.

Recovery varies based on which procedures you have, but we'll guide you every step of the way. We provide clear post-operative instructions for managing discomfort, caring for incisions, and gradually returning to normal activities. Most importantly, we stay in close contact to monitor your progress and ensure you're healing beautifully.

Is a mommy makeover only for mothers?

While the procedure gets its name because mothers are the most common patients, any woman who wants to address changes in her breasts and abdomen can be a candidate. The combination of procedures works well for women who've experienced significant weight loss or natural aging changes too.

Who is a good candidate for mommy makeover procedures?

Good candidates for mommy makeover in Seattle often include:

• Women who are done having children and have maintained a stable weight for at least six months
• Those in good general health
• Non-smokers (or be willing to quit)
• Patients who have realistic expectations about what surgery can achieve

It's important that you're doing this for yourself - not to meet someone else's expectations.

How popular is the mommy makeover surgery?

Mommy makeovers have become increasingly popular over the past decade, with more women choosing to restore their bodies after having children.

Is the mommy makeover performed in a single procedure?

Most mommy makeovers are completed in one surgical session, which means you only go under anesthesia once and have a single recovery period. However, if you need extensive work done, Dr. Sajan might recommend staging procedures for safety reasons. He'll discuss this during your consultation.

Will a Caesarian section delivery affect mommy makeover results?

Having a C-section won't interfere with your mommy makeover results. The tummy tuck incision is typically placed at the same level as a C-section scar. In fact, the tummy tuck can often improve the appearance of C-section scarring while addressing that stubborn "shelf" that sometimes forms above the scar.

What is recovery like after a mommy makeover surgery?

Recovery depends on which procedures you have done, but most patients take about two to three weeks off work. You'll be encouraged to walk daily from the start - it's fine to push a stroller! You can pick up your children after about two weeks, but should do so from a seated position to protect your healing muscles. Full exercise usually resumes around six to eight weeks.

What are the benefits of a mommy makeover procedure?

Beyond the physical improvements, patients often report feeling more confident, having more energy, and enjoying activities they'd been avoiding. Cosmetic surgery may also help improve quality of life and self-esteem.

What does a mommy makeover procedure include?

A typical mommy makeover includes some combination of breast surgery (augmentation, lift, or both), tummy tuck, and liposuction. Some women also choose to add other procedures like labiaplasty or fat grafting. Your specific combination depends entirely on your individual needs and goals.

Is there an age limit for having a mommy makeover?

There's no specific age limit, but you need to be healthy enough for surgery. The FDA recommendations suggest that patients be at least 18 for saline implants and 22 for silicone. Most of our patients are between 30 and 50, but we've helped women in their 20s and 60s too. The key factors are your overall health, realistic expectations, and making sure your body has recovered from pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Can all procedures be carried out at the same time?

Many procedures can be safely combined, which is the whole point of a mommy makeover - getting everything done at once. Dr. Sajan will evaluate your specific situation during your consultation to determine what's safe and appropriate for you. Sometimes it's better to stage procedures, but often everything can be done together.

What if I want more children?

We strongly recommend waiting until you're done having children before getting a mommy makeover. While you may be able to get pregnant after these procedures, pregnancy will likely undo some of your results, especially in the abdominal area.

How do I choose the right surgeon?

Look for a certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in mommy makeovers. Check before and after photos, read patient reviews, and make sure you feel comfortable during your consultation. Dr. Sajan has performed thousands of these procedures.
