Mommy Makeover

Having a child is a life-changing experience that brings joy and love into your life. However, it can also affect your figure.

With a mommy makeover at our centre serving Prince Edward Island and Halifax, NS, you can achieve a rejuvenated appearance.

Drs. Bendor-Samuel and Boileau have over 25 years of experience and provide a safe and caring environment for your mommy makeover.

What Is a Mommy Makeover?

A mommy makeover combines several plastic surgery procedures designed to target the areas of the body most affected by pregnancy. It is a custom-designed treatment plan that can rejuvenate your appearance and self-confidence.


When plastic surgeons perform mommy makeover procedures, they typically target the abdomen and breasts. Our plastic surgeons in the Maritime provinces of Canada will often treat signs of aging in the face as well.

Abdomen

During pregnancy, your abdominal skin and muscles will stretch to make room for your baby. After childbirth, your muscles and skin may not return to the way they were before pregnancy. That means you could have loose skin and stretch marks on your stomach, and pockets of fat that can be difficult to lose.

Many women desire a flatter stomach and a more youthful appearance, yet the effects of childbirth can make this difficult to achieve.

Breasts

During pregnancy and nursing, your breasts will enlarge, possibly up to several cup sizes. However, once you're done breastfeeding, your breasts can lose volume, resulting in noticeable sagging. They can change in size compared to their appearance before pregnancy.

A significant change in breast appearance can lead to low self-esteem and a number of issues involving body image.

Face

Many women miss the youthful glow and plump skin they had during their pregnancy and while they were breastfeeding. Some mothers may want to restore their youthful pre-pregnancy appearance.

Facial injections from a plastic surgeon in the Canadian Maritimes can be part of your mommy makeover. They can smooth away existing lines and prevent wrinkles that may appear due to the stress of pregnancy and raising a child.
Before scheduling your mommy makeover, our plastic surgeons will discuss your goals and expectations, and educate you on relevant procedures, risks, and treatment options.

Which Plastic Surgery Options Are Available?

Our Halifax, Nova Scotia, plastic surgery centre offers different surgical and non-surgical options that can contribute to your mommy makeover.

Breast Augmentation

A breast augmentation procedure places implants under your breast tissue or chest muscles to restore fullness and shape. Due to the varying shapes and sizes of implants, your breast augmentation can be customized to fit your body type and preferences.

This cosmetic surgery can increase the size of your breasts, restore lost volume, and correct an asymmetrical bustline.

Breast Reduction

If you've gained weight during your pregnancy, your breasts may not go back to the size they were before having your child, even if you return to your pre-pregnancy weight. Your breasts can be significantly larger and heavier, leading to neck, shoulder, and back pain.

During a breast reduction, our surgeons remove excess fat, tissue, and skin to create smaller breasts. A breast reduction can be combined with a breast lift to improve size, shape, and symmetry.

Breast Lift

Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgery procedure that can restore lost volume to the breasts. If you have stretched or excess skin that's making your breasts sag, a breast lift may be a better solution. During a breast lift, our plastic surgeons remove excess skin and reposition breast tissue to achieve a perkier bustline.

You can undergo a breast augmentation and a breast lift at the same time.

Liposuction

Your pre-pregnancy body may not have struggled with pockets of fat, but after pregnancy, stubborn fat may not respond to any amount of diet or exercise. A flat stomach can help you feel more comfortable and confident, and you can restore your stomach to its pre-pregnancy appearance with the help of liposuction.

Liposuction is a body contouring technique that uses a cannula to remove stubborn pockets of fat, giving you a slimmer body profile. The cannula is inserted through a small incision where it loosens and suctions away fat cells.

Tummy Tuck

Pregnancy can result in stretch marks and loose skin around the stomach, which makes many women feel self-conscious. A tummy tuck (also called abdominoplasty) removes this excess skin and other tissue on your stomach. An abdominoplasty also tightens abdominal muscles and tones the stomach, resulting in a more sculpted physique.

After your pregnancy, you'll have to wait a minimum of six months to undergo a tummy tuck. This will allow your abdominal muscles enough time to heal.

BOTOX Injections

The face is the first thing people notice about you, and the condition of your skin can significantly impact your self-esteem. Our office can safely inject BOTOX® Cosmetic to relax your muscles, both smoothing existing wrinkles and preventing new ones from forming.

For a more well-rounded treatment plan, our office has other skin treatments to help eliminate wrinkles and improve the texture of your skin. After a thorough examination, we can help you decide which facial rejuvenation treatment can best enhance your appearance.

After Your Mommy Makeover Procedure

Recovery from a mommy makeover is different for everyone and depends on which plastic surgery procedures a patient chooses.

In some cases, we may offer patients from the Maritime provinces of Canada an extended stay in a private room at our Halifax, Nova Scotia, office. This is especially the case for mommy makeovers involving a breast surgery procedure or tummy tuck. This room includes care from a semi-private nurse (one nurse to every two patients) until going home early the next morning.

It may be necessary for you to wear a compression garment to support your breasts or to control swelling in your abdomen. The healing process will take several weeks, and the final results of your mommy makeover won't be apparent for several months after your surgery.

Who Qualifies for a Mommy Makeover?

Our plastic surgeons can likely perform a mommy makeover at our Halifax, Nova Scotia, location if you are:

  • Healthy
  • At your ideal body weight
  • Have realistic expectations
  • Are finished breastfeeding
  • Are finished having children

Had a great experience with The Landings Surgical Center. Dr Boileau was very friendly and thorough during my consult which helped put my mind at ease! When it came time for my surgery all the staff were wonderful, making me feel at ease and comfortable through the whole process! Dr. Boileau, Dr. Lancelot and my (absolutely amazing) nurse Christina were all great!

I had my appointmnet for Fillers and Botox and was blown away by how thorough the Nurse Injector was. We discussed the areas I was hoping to fix and she explained how in great depth we would achieve it. I was emailed an in-depth what to do afterwards. It has only been a week but I love the results so far. I don't know why I waited so long to seek out this treatment. Definitely the place to go if you are looking for great customer service and knowing you are in capable hands of a real surgical practice.
