An Introduction

Motherhood is beautiful, and so are you. A Mommy Makeover by Dr. Carlos Mata (a.k.a. Dr. Scottsdale®) is a customized combination of cosmetic procedures that target areas of the body affected by pregnancy — breasts, abdomen, hips, and thighs. It is fully customizable to your goals and can include breast augmentation, breast lift, tummy tuck surgery, fat transfer, and/or liposuction.

01
The Procedure

What is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover describes a customized combination of cosmetic procedures to restore a woman's body shape and appearance after pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. This makeover typically addresses changes in the breasts, abdomen, waist, and buttocks.

It is commonly composed of procedures such as breast augmentation, breast lift, abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), liposuction, and in some cases a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). The goal is to tackle issues such as sagging breasts, loose skin, stretch marks, and excess fat — helping mothers regain their pre-pregnancy body confidence. Each Mommy Makeover is tailored to the individual's specific needs and aesthetic goals, making it a highly personalized treatment plan.

Surgical Techniques

How Dr. Mata Tailors the Procedure

The surgical techniques Dr. Mata uses are tailored to suit the specific conditions of each body area the patient wants to enhance. The procedure is fully customizable to your needs and goals.

Breast — Typical concerns post-pregnancy are sagging and loose skin, along with a decrease or increase in breast volume. Depending on individual needs, options include breast augmentation, breast reduction, breast lift, and/or breast lift with implants. Often a combination — such as breast augmentation paired with a lift — is used to achieve a youthful, balanced appearance.

Lower Body — Common concerns include loose skin, surface irregularities like stretch marks, and stubborn fat deposits. These are normally addressed with liposuction and a no-drain tummy tuck to trim away excess skin and re-position the remaining skin. The no-drain tummy tuck allows faster recovery, reduces the risk of complications, and gives better results.

Add-on — Because every mom is different, it's common to have an add-on specifically chosen for her. One of the most common add-ons is the Brazilian Butt Lift to increase and shape the buttocks and hips.

Candidacy

Who's a Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?

Healthy women who do not plan to have another pregnancy and have tried their best to recuperate their post-pregnancy shape through diet and exercise — to no avail — are the best candidates for the Mommy Makeover.

The Mommy Makeover procedure can be done as soon as 6 months after being done breastfeeding. After the surgery, you will be able to have another pregnancy, but your results may be altered. For long-lasting results, pregnancy after the procedure should be avoided.

Benefits

Why Mommy Makeover

  • 01Restored breast shape and size (often through breast augmentation or a breast lift)
  • 02A more toned abdominal area through tummy tuck — removing excess skin and tightening abdominal muscles
  • 03Reduced excess fat in stubborn areas through liposuction
  • 04Enhanced overall physical appearance and body contour
  • 05Boosted self-confidence after pregnancy-related changes
Candidacy

Is This Right For You?

You may be a candidate if...
  • Healthy women who do not plan to have another pregnancy
  • Finished breastfeeding for at least 6 months
  • Have tried diet and exercise to recover post-pregnancy shape without the desired result
This may not be right if...
  • Planning a future pregnancy (pregnancy after the procedure may alter results)
  • Currently breastfeeding, or less than 6 months since weaning
  • Active smokers unable to stop before surgery
  • Uncontrolled medical conditions that increase surgical risk

Candidacy is ultimately a conversation. Dr. Mata will determine the right path at consultation.

Schedule Consultation
Recovery

What to Expect

Every patient heals at their own pace. These milestones offer a realistic roadmap based on hundreds of procedures performed by Dr. Mata.

  1. Days 1–7

    Rest at home with limited movement. Compression garment worn over the abdomen. Pain managed with medication Dr. Mata prescribes. No-drain tummy tuck means no drains to manage.

  2. Weeks 2–3

    Most patients can return to non-strenuous work within 2–3 weeks. Some swelling and numbness may persist. Avoid straining, bending, or lifting.

  3. Follow-Up

    Attending all follow-up appointments with Dr. Mata is crucial — they allow him to monitor healing, check for infection, and remove stitches and dressings when appropriate.

  4. 3–6 Months

    Recovery is gradual. Full results from the tummy tuck portion are visible after 3–6 months as swelling resolves.
