Mommy Makeover Austin
You love being a mother, and you love your children. There is no argument there, but there is also no denying it; pregnancy has taken a toll on your figure. Women are often left with “souvenirs” from these wonderful experiences, such as droopy breasts, lost breast volume, enlarged areolas, sagging tummy skin, stretch marks, stretched labia, and loss of definition in the waist that no amount of diet and exercise can correct. This can be so frustrating, and it’s so unfair. You didn’t deserve those changes in your body, but don’t fret. There is hope and the mommy makeover team at Restora Austin is here to help. Unlike in the past when women had to resign themselves to living with these body “souvenirs”, you don’t have to.

Your Mommy Makeover Consultation
Considering a Mommy Makeover procedure is a big decision. Your Restora Austin plastic surgeon, Dr. Gordon or Dr. Reid, will meet with you during your consultation appointment. You will undergo a physical examination, and your surgeon will discuss what you can expect from a Mommy Makeover and what procedures you had in mind. Our professional staff is committed to helping you decide which combination of procedures is best suited to your body and desired outcome.
Suitable Candidates
Mommy Makeover Austin
When considering a mommy makeover procedure, you should choose the procedure for results you wish to achieve and not for anyone else. Women who are suitable candidates for mommy makeover surgery:
- Are physically healthy
- Suffer from stubborn fat and sagging skin
- Suffer from sagging breasts
- Have realistic expectations
- Want to increase breast volume and size lost to childbirth or weight loss

“Dr. Gordon and the Team,
I wanted to find a way to thank you all to the best of my ability for changing my life. But, there are no gift or words that could truly express my gratitude for all you’ve done for me. I never thought it’d be possible in this lifetime for me to ever be comfortable in my body. Not only have y’all given me confidence, you’ve given me happiness as well! Thank you all so much for your kindness and your time.” ~ Anonymous
What is a Mommy Makeover?
A mommy makeover is combining advanced techniques and procedures to restore the body to a rejuvenated and pre-pregnancy appearance. Here are procedures that can be included in a Mommy makeover; they can be performed concurrently or in multiple sessions:
Breast Augmentation
After pregnancy, your breasts may have lost a significant amount of volume. They may appear deflated and flatter than before. A breast augmentation can restore lost volume. It is designed to enhance breast size and firmness with breast implants. This procedure will help improve your figure and give you the self-confidence that comes with beautiful breasts.
Breast Lift
Pregnancy and breast feeding can take a tremendous toll on the breasts. With the extreme fluctuations in size, the skin and tissues can lose their elasticity and perkiness after breast feeding and childbearing. When size is not the only issue but position is, a breast lift will be the best solution. When patients suffer from breasts that have lost size, volume, and droop downward, a breast lift can be done in concert with a breast augmentation.
Tummy Tuck
Post pregnancy, what woman does not crave a tight, toned stomach? It is an attractive quality most mothers would love to attain, and many try with diet and exercise. However, when the abdominal wall is stretched, surgery is necessary to regain what childbirth took away. This procedure will tighten the abdominal wall and remove excess fat and skin. It is a popular choice for mommy makeover patients. We even improve the results with our own Tummy Tuck 360.
Liposuction
When a diet and exercise regimen fails to give you the results you desperately seek, liposuction can be a great game changer for a return to your pre-pregnancy figure. We offer a choice of liposuction procedures, with SAFELipo® and Vaser HiDef Lipo being two popular options. There is a lot of pressure to gain and maintain a body with feminine curves, and this procedure will help you achieve the body that will make you proud.
Vaginal Rejuvenation
Sometimes pregnancy, hormonal changes, or weight loss can have a change on your private parts. It can create a bulge or be extremely uncomfortable when you are active. Enlarged labia can be embarrassing and can cause women to become less active and shy away from tight-fitting clothes. Restora Austin offers ThermiVa, a non-surgical treatment which uses radiofrequency to tighten the internal vaginal tissues and the external labia. A surgical labiaplasty will trim excess labia minor tissues to tuck them under the labia majora and make you confident about your lady parts again.
Choosing Your Mommy Makeover Surgeon
Although mommy makeover procedures are common in Austin and Central Texas, choosing the right surgeon for these procedures is critical. Sadly, many doctors offer mommy makeover procedures regardless of their training and experience.
It is important for your plastic surgeon to have the right credentials and qualifications. These include training, reputation, board certification, and experience. It also includes education and a long list of satisfied patients.
Why Restora Austin Surgery Center
There’s no need to look anywhere else for mommy makeover advice other than Dr. Gordon and Dr. Reid, and while there are many reasons to list, we’ll give you just three:
- Dr. Gordon and Dr. Reid are two of the busiest breast enhancement surgeons in Austin and are known for their natural, beautiful results. Two of the three breast implant companies have invited them to be on their advisory panels based on their experience, volume, and reputation in the field. Experience counts.
- They were among the first plastic surgeons in the country and the first in Austin to offer SAFELipo® to patients. They remain the only certified SAFELipo® providers for Austin and Central Texas.
- Based on their dramatic results with SAFELipo®, they developed a new, revolutionary surgical procedure, which they named Tummy Tuck 360™. Wait until you see the results of their groundbreaking procedure.

Mommy Makeover FAQs
How long will my results last?
As long as you maintain a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle, your results will last for many years.
How long will I need to take off of work?
Most patients are ready to go back to work after one to two weeks. If your job is very physically demanding, you may need to take more time off or request light duty.
What do I need to do to prepare for my tummy tuck?
To optimize your recovery, you will need to:
- Have blood work done
- Have an EKG if you are over 50
- Get medical clearance if you have health issues, like diabetes or heart disease
- Stop smoking
- Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs, and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding
Are these outpatient procedures?
It depends on the type of procedures performed and the length of time they take. If you have a Tummy Tuck 360™ or if you have additional procedures, you will spend one night in our overnight suite at INSPIRE Surgery Centre. An RN who specializes in post-operative care will stay with you.
Where will my Mommy Makeover be performed?
Your Mommy Makeover Austin procedure will be performed at INSPIRE, our fully accredited, AAAASF, surgery center. A board-certified anesthesiologist will administer general anesthesia.
What happens if I get pregnant again?
You should be sure you aren’t having any more children before your Mommy Makeover, as subsequent pregnancies can bring about the same changes again. If you become pregnant by chance, your prior surgeries will not interfere. Your tissues will stretch again to accommodate the baby, but a revision may be necessary.
Your Mommy Makeover Austin Consultation
During your consultation, your surgeon will explain all your options and formulate a treatment plan based on your goals and lifestyle.
Is there an ideal time for my Mommy Makeover Austin?
The ideal time is when you feel emotionally, mentally and physically prepared for your procedure(s). It’s important to have your support system in place for the postoperative period so that you can relax and heal properly. We want your hormone levels to stabilize before surgery and for you to be at a stable weight, ideally your pre-pregnancy weight. It’s also best to wait at least three months after you stop breastfeeding before any breast enhancement procedure.
What can I do to maintain my results?
- Commit to a healthy lifestyle of eating well, along with an exercise plan after you have fully healed
- Maintain a stable weight
- Avoid future pregnancies
