When life revolves around caring for little ones, it’s easy to put certain personal goals on hold. A mommy makeover can address body concerns that often arise after pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, all while fitting into a busy lifestyle. If you’re looking for a comprehensive body rejuvenation option, consider a mommy makeover with liposuction here in Seattle.
Allure Esthetic, led by Dr. Javad Sajan, have seen firsthand how transformative and confidence-boosting these procedures can be. Liposuction can help streamline stubborn areas of fat resistant to diet and exercise, allowing you to get back to feeling like yourself again—maybe even better than before!
Why Add Liposuction To A Mommy Makeover?
Many people come to us asking why liposuction is beneficial to include as part of a mommy makeover. A mommy makeover typically addresses areas such as the abdomen and breasts with procedures like tummy tucks, breast lifts, or breast augmentations. However, the addition of liposuction helps sculpt and refine your overall body shape. Some advantages include:
- Enhanced Contouring: Liposuction precisely targets pockets of fat that are difficult to lose through diet and exercise alone. It ensures a smooth, natural-looking silhouette that complements other mommy makeover procedures.
- Reduced Surgical Sessions: When combined with other surgeries, liposuction can minimize the need for multiple separate procedures, helping you save time and energy.
- Improved Overall Results: Liposuction can highlight the full impact of a tummy tuck or breast surgery by improving the contours around those areas, giving a more balanced look.
- Confidence Boost: Removing stubborn fat can provide a mental and emotional lift. Feeling comfortable in your body can help you fully enjoy the results of your mommy makeover.
By streamlining those trouble spots alongside your primary surgical goals, liposuction can be the game-changer that completes a body transformation.
Common Mommy Makeover With Liposuction Treatment Areas
While mommy makeover procedures often center on the abdomen and breasts, there are other key areas where liposuction can make a notable impact. Here are a few regions we frequently address:
- Flanks and Love Handles: Many people find that, after pregnancy, fat settles around the waistline. Liposuction can help shape these zones, creating a smoother transition from the waist to the hips.
- Thighs: Extra fat in the inner or outer thighs is another common concern after pregnancy and weight fluctuations. Liposuction can trim these areas and create a more toned appearance.
- Back and Bra Bulge: The back can accumulate pockets of fat that can be difficult to manage with exercise. Liposuction provides targeted contouring to help reduce bulges and rolls, complementing breast-focused procedures.
- Arms: Sometimes, the upper arms retain stubborn fat that affects how clothes fit. Liposuction here can produce a leaner, firmer look without requiring more invasive arm surgeries.
These are just a handful of typical targets during a mommy makeover. Because everyone’s anatomy and goals differ, Dr. Sajan customizes each treatment plan to address the areas you want to improve most.
Surgical Processes & Techniques
One key element that makes a mommy makeover with liposuction more effective is the use of advanced technology. Dr. Javad Sajan and our team utilize modern techniques to deliver the best possible outcomes.
- VASER Liposuction + Renuvion: Vaser liposuction uses ultrasound energy to emulsify and remove stubborn fat with precision and minimal trauma. Renuvion, combining helium plasma and radiofrequency, tightens and contracts skin following fat removal. Together, they deliver superior contouring, reduced downtime, and enhanced sculpting, providing smoother, more sculpted results than traditional methods for lasting transformation.
- Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL): PAL involves a vibrating cannula (the tube used to remove fat) that helps dislodge fat more efficiently. It can often reduce operative time and potentially cause less trauma to the surrounding tissues.
When planning your mommy makeover, Dr. Sajan will discuss the different options and recommend the technique that aligns with your body type, goals, and medical history. We pride ourselves on tailoring every approach to ensure safe, stunning, and long-lasting results.
What Is Recovery Like?
Recovery from a mommy makeover that includes liposuction will vary from person to person, but there are a few universal pointers we recommend:
- Wear Compression Garments: These garments help reduce swelling and support the tissues. They also aid in contouring, making your final results more defined.
- Stay Hydrated: Proper hydration supports the healing process and helps reduce inflammation.
- Gentle Movement: While rest is crucial, some light walking (as recommended by Dr. Sajan) can help promote healthy circulation and reduce the risk of complications.
- Follow Post-Operative Instructions: We provide personalized guidelines regarding care for incisions, follow-up appointments, and activity levels. Diligently following these instructions often leads to a smoother, quicker recovery.
Swelling and bruising are common in the first few weeks and gradually improve over time. Many patients feel comfortable resuming non-strenuous jobs within a week or two, although full exercise and heavy lifting may require a few more weeks of rest. Our team remains available to answer questions and guide you through each stage of recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon after childbirth can someone get a mommy makeover with liposuction?
We recommend waiting until you’ve completed childbirth and breastfeeding and your body has had enough time to recover, usually at least six months post-pregnancy. This waiting period ensures your weight has stabilized, which can help optimize your surgical results.
Will liposuction help tighten loose skin?
Liposuction primarily addresses excess fat. If you have significant skin laxity, procedures like a tummy tuck or other lifting techniques may be recommended in addition to liposuction. Dr. Sajan will guide you through these considerations during your consultation.
Is liposuction painful?
Like any surgery, the healing process can be uncomfortable. However, our team provides pain management strategies to make you comfortable. Swelling and soreness usually improve within a few weeks, and many patients find that the results are well worth the temporary downtime.
Will the fat come back after liposuction?
Liposuction permanently removes fat cells from the treated areas. However, it does not prevent future weight gain. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise, is essential to prolong the results of your mommy makeover.
How do we decide which areas to target with liposuction?
Each mommy makeover plan is personalized. During your consultation, Dr. Sajan will help determine which areas of the body will benefit most from liposuction based on your goals and anatomy. Together, we’ll create a plan that aligns with what you want to achieve.
