A Mommy Makeover is a personalized combination of procedures, such as a tummy tuck, breast lift or augmentation, and liposuction, designed to restore the body after pregnancy and breastfeeding. It helps rejuvenate body contours and boost confidence, helping women feel like their best selves again.
To ensure the best possible outcome and smooth recovery for your mommy makeover, it’s essential to properly prepare for the surgery. Below are the key steps and guidelines to follow in the weeks leading up to your procedure:
Smoking significantly impairs the body’s ability to heal and increases the risk of complications. To optimize your recovery and reduce the risk of infection, we strongly recommend quitting smoking at least 4-6 weeks before your surgery, and refraining from smoking during your recovery period.
For your safety, all contraceptive pills must be stopped at least one month prior to surgery. This is necessary to reduce the risk of blood clots and to support optimal circulation during your procedure.
Alcohol can interfere with anesthesia, increase swelling, and slow down the healing process. To ensure a smoother surgery and recovery, please limit alcohol intake at least 1-2 weeks before your procedure and refrain from drinking during your recovery period.
Blood-thinning medications, certain supplements, and herbal teas can increase the risk of bleeding during surgery. Please stop taking these at least 1-2 weeks before your procedure. Always consult with your surgeon about any medications or supplements you're currently taking to ensure a safe and effective surgery.
Payments for your procedure should be made in cash. Bank transfers should be done 7 days prior to arrival and if you prefer to pay by credit card, a processing fee will be added to the total amount, and the payment must be processed before your arrival in the country.
If you're traveling from abroad, ensure that you have the appropriate visa for entry into Turkey. If your country requires a visa, feel free to reach out to our team for assistance—we're happy to help with the process.
A well-balanced, nutritious diet is key to supporting your body’s healing process. Eat nutrient-rich foods in the weeks leading up to your surgery to help strengthen your immune system and prepare your body for the procedure.
It’s important to prepare a comfortable, quiet space for recovery at home. Take time off from work and avoid any strenuous activities to ensure your body can focus on healing. Having a cozy space to rest will help support a quicker and more comfortable recovery.
Smoking can slow healing and increase the risk of complications. It’s advised to stop smoking at least 4-6 weeks before surgery and during recovery.
Some medications, especially blood thinners, should be stopped before surgery. Discuss all medications and supplements with your dentist.
Alcohol can interfere with anesthesia and recovery. Avoid drinking for at least 1-2 weeks before the procedure.
Payments for your procedure should be made in cash. If you prefer to pay via credit card, a processing fee will be applied to the final payment.

The day of your mommy makeover will be carefully planned to ensure everything goes smoothly, and you feel confident and comfortable. Here’s what you can expect when you arrive:
Upon arrival, you’ll check in, and our team will guide you to the pre-operative area where you’ll change into a surgical gown. Your vital signs will be monitored before the procedure.
A routine blood test will be conducted to ensure you're in optimal health for surgery. This helps assess key factors like blood clotting and general health, which are essential for a safe surgery.
After your blood tests, you will meet with your surgeon to finalize the details of your procedure. This is the perfect time to ask any questions or voice any concerns. Your surgeon will discuss the areas to be treated, review the desired results, and confirm the surgical plan. Together, you’ll also go over any body markings to ensure precision.
Once your surgeon has reviewed everything, they will mark the treatment areas on your body. These markings are crucial for precise and even results, helping to guide the procedure and ensure that you achieve the body contouring outcomes you desire.
After the consultation and markings, you’ll be taken to the operating room. Depending on the procedures included in your makeover, you will be given anesthesia (either local or general) to ensure you’re comfortable and pain-free throughout the surgery.
Once you’re fully sedated, your surgeon will begin the mommy makeover procedure. This may include a combination of breast augmentation or lift, tummy tuck, and liposuction to restore your pre-pregnancy body or address areas that haven't returned to their previous shape. The exact combination of procedures will depend on your personal goals and needs. After the surgery, you’ll be moved to a recovery area where you’ll be monitored as the anesthesia wears off.
Upon arrival, you'll check in and be escorted to a pre-operative area. You’ll change into a gown, and your vital signs will be monitored.
You’ll meet with your dentist to confirm the details of your procedure. This is the time to ask any final questions about your aesthetic goals, the procedure, and the recovery process. Your dentist will also mark the areas to be treated.
For most procedures, local anesthesia will be used to numb the treatment area. If needed, light sedation may also be provided to ensure your comfort.
Depending on the procedure (Smile Makeover, crowns, veneers, or implants), your dentist will take the necessary steps to prepare your teeth. This may involve removing damaged or decayed portions of the teeth, placing temporary crowns or veneers, or placing dental implants.
After the procedure, you’ll be moved to a recovery area, where you’ll be monitored as the anesthesia wears off. Comfort and safety are prioritized during this phase.
Your team will ensure you’re comfortable and answer any questions you may have. The next steps will focus on your post-surgery care and recovery, which our team will guide you through in detail.
After your mommy makeover, your comfort and care are our top priorities. We want to make sure you have a smooth recovery and enjoy the best possible results. Here’s what you can expect during the recovery process:
Following your surgery, you will spend a night in the hospital for observation. Our medical team will monitor your condition to ensure everything is progressing well, and there are no complications. This time is crucial as your body begins the initial healing process.
The following day, once you’re stable, you’ll be discharged from the hospital. A team member will escort you back to your hotel, where you’ll be encouraged to rest and relax. This is a critical time for recovery, and it’s important to avoid strenuous activities to give your body time to heal.
After your mommy makeover, massage therapy can be beneficial in helping reduce swelling, improve circulation, and enhance the contouring of treated areas. We provide two post-surgery massage sessions with a licensed therapist as part of your care plan. If you’d like additional massages, you can arrange more sessions at your own cost.
During your recovery, you’ll have a follow-up appointment with your surgeon. This appointment ensures the treated areas are healing properly and gives you the opportunity to discuss any questions or concerns. Your surgeon will also review your aftercare instructions and offer guidance on what to expect as you continue your healing journey.
Once your recovery is progressing well and you’re feeling comfortable, you’ll be cleared to fly back home. By this point, you’ll have had your post-operative checkup and will be ready to continue your recovery at home. You’ll leave with clear aftercare instructions and a follow-up plan to ensure you stay on track during your healing process.
Throughout your recovery, our team will be there to support you. Should you have any concerns or questions, we are always available to ensure your healing goes smoothly, and you feel confident in your results.

A Mommy Makeover is a combination of cosmetic procedures designed to restore and enhance a woman’s body after pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. It typically includes a tummy tuck, breast lift or augmentation, and liposuction, but can be customized to address your specific needs.
The ideal candidate is a healthy woman who has finished having children, is close to her ideal weight, and has realistic expectations. Mommy Makeovers are most popular among women dealing with sagging breasts, excess skin, and stubborn fat that doesn't respond to diet or exercise.
Recovery varies, but most women can return to light activities within 2-3 weeks. Full recovery typically takes 6-8 weeks. During this time, you’ll need to avoid heavy lifting and strenuous exercise to allow your body to heal properly.
Yes, Mommy Makeovers usually involve incisions, which will result in scars. However, your surgeon will place them in discreet areas, such as along the bikini line for a tummy tuck or around the areola for breast surgery. Scars will fade over time but may not disappear completely.
The results can be long-lasting, especially if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. However, future pregnancies or significant weight gain may affect your results. The procedures are designed to restore and enhance your body, but the natural aging process will continue.
You’ll be under anesthesia during the procedure, so you won’t feel pain. Afterward, you may experience discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which can be managed with medication. Most patients find that the pain subsides after a few days to weeks, depending on the extent of the surgery.
A full facelift targets both the lower face and neck, lifting more tissue for a more dramatic result, while a mini facelift focuses on the lower face and is less invasive with shorter recovery time.

Most women are able to breastfeed after breast implant replacement, but it depends on the technique used and the amount of tissue altered. Be sure to discuss your concerns about breastfeeding with your surgeon before the procedure.
It is possible to breastfeed after breast reduction, but the ability to do so may depend on the technique used and how much tissue is removed. Discuss this with your surgeon prior to surgery to understand the potential impact on breastfeeding.
