Both pregnancy and childbirth create many changes in the female body. During pregnancy, excess weight is gained and these weights are lost during delivery. As a matter of fact, an excess of skin remains, which is aesthetically disturbing. At the same time, uncomfortable appearances may occur in the breasts, vagina and different parts of the body. Here is a series of operations that allow women to return to their pre-pregnancy state and are applied for an aesthetic appearance, called maternity aesthetics or mommy makeover. A specially planned maternity aesthetic may sometimes involve only one operation, or sometimes several operations can be performed together.
A series of operations that allow women to return to their pre-pregnancy state and are applied for an aesthetic appearance are called maternity aesthetics or mommy makeover.
A Mommy Makeover in Turkey is a comprehensive set of cosmetic surgical procedures designed to address the physical changes a woman’s body undergoes after pregnancy and childbirth. These changes often include sagging breasts, excess abdominal skin, and stubborn fat deposits that do not respond to diet and exercise. In Turkey, a Mommy Makeover typically encompasses a combination of procedures such as breast augmentation or lift, tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), liposuction, and sometimes vaginal rejuvenation. Each procedure is tailored to the individual needs of the patient, aiming to restore her pre-pregnancy body and enhance her overall confidence.
Turkey has become an increasingly popular destination for Mommy Makeover procedures due to its highly skilled and experienced plastic surgeons, state-of-the-art medical facilities, and cost-effective treatment options. Patients from around the world are drawn to Turkey not only for the high standard of care but also for the opportunity to recover in a beautiful and culturally rich environment. The combination of medical expertise and affordable prices makes Turkey a top choice for women looking to rejuvenate their bodies and regain their self-esteem after childbirth.
During pregnancy and childbirth, women go through many physical changes as well as psychologically. It is possible that mental problems will disappear after birth, but a worn-out body may remain. As a matter of fact, women may experience dissatisfaction, lack of self-confidence and similar problems as a reflection of this worn-out body. As a matter of fact, situations such as sagging or loosening in the body with maternity aesthetics can be eliminated with a few simple procedures.
The physical changes that occur in every woman during pregnancy and childbirth are different. For example, while some women only have sagging breasts, some women may have problems such as cracks or loosening in the waist area. Maternity aesthetics, which includes many operations such as tummy tuck, breast lift or breast augmentation, should be planned individually as the changes in women differ. The main purpose of maternity aesthetics is to regain the lost aesthetic appearance of women and to enable them to continue their lives with a body they are satisfied with and self-confidence.
As long as the postpartum health status of women is good, all maternity aesthetic applications can be performed. The most suitable time for mommy makeover is between 6 months and 1 year after birth. In other words, breastfeeding is expected to be completed. The details of the procedures to be applied regarding the waiting period will also be decisive. For example, if a tummy tuck is to be performed, it is necessary to wait for 1 year because it takes a long time for the muscles in this area to recover. Maternity aesthetics is also frequently preferred by women between the ages of 25-40 who cannot bring their body to the desired shape with diet and exercise programs. Maternity aesthetics includes the most effective methods that can be applied for an aesthetic appearance.
The most common complaints by women who have given birth are the cracks in the body and the excess skin left on the body after giving birth. Although exercise or diet programs may help with weight loss, they often fail to remove excess skin. In addition, it is not possible to remove sagging in the breasts and different parts of the body with these methods. Therefore, the following procedures should be applied within the scope of mommy makeover:
It is possible to perform only one of these operations, or it is possible to use several different operations in combination.
The steps to be applied in mommy makeover vary according to the operation and the procedures to be applied are different according to the needs of each woman. Of course, the general health status and demands of the patient are also important here. The details of the procedures applied within the scope of mommy makeover are as follows:
The work of the mammary glands creates enlargement of the breasts during pregnancy to collect milk and enable breastfeeding. However, problems such as loss of volume and fullness, shrinkage or sagging of the breasts are likely to occur after the birth and the breastfeeding period is completed. After breast augmentation, reduction or lift operations, the breasts can be restored to their prenatal state. Patients are decisive about the shape and size of the breasts. The two methods used to solve the problems in the breasts are the removal of excess tissues or the application of silicone prostheses.
Vaginal enlargement may occur during childbirth. With the vaginal tightening operation called vaginoplasty, the vagina is given a much narrower and more collected appearance. If elongation or sagging of the inner and outer lips of the vagina occurred during childbirth, this situation is corrected with a vaginal aesthetic operation called labiaplasty. Recovery time is short after both vaginoplasty and labiaplasty procedures.
The fat accumulated in the hips, back, arms or abdomen during pregnancy may still be present after birth. The liposuction process, which is performed with special tubes and cannulas, is the most ideal method to get rid of this excess fat. Liposuction is recommended before tummy tuck operations.
The skin tissue and excess fat in the abdomen are removed as part of the tummy tuck operation. As the skin will be removed from an incision made in the bikini area, there is no visible scar.
Stretch mark treatment is carried out using advanced and modern techniques. In particular, applications such as Pulse DYE Laser, PRP, eCO2 Laser, dermotherapy and micro-needle fractional radiofrequency are extremely effective in the treatment of cracks.
Additional procedures can be applied within the scope of maternity aesthetics, if deemed necessary by the doctor or depending on the patient's demands.
The important points that patients should pay attention to after maternity aesthetic applications are determined as follows:
It is possible for women to become pregnant again after maternity aesthetic applications. However, you should know that maternity aesthetic applications will lose their effect in this process. In other words, in order to preserve the current appearance, all previous maternity aesthetic applications after a new pregnancy must be done again. Therefore, it is recommended that women who are planning a pregnancy postpone their maternity aesthetic applications until after the birth.
