Mommy Makeover in Raleigh, NC

Tummy Tuck + Breast Surgery for Moms

Take Control of Your Body

After bearing a child, many women notice the toll it takes on their bodies. A Mommy Makeover procedure addresses common concerns women have after childbirth. There are a variety of methods one can receive with a Mommy Makeover, such as a Breast Reduction, Breast Augmentation, Breast Lift, Abdominoplasty, or Liposuction. A Tummy Tuck and Liposuction are aimed to tighten and firm the abdominal muscles. We recommend this procedure is endured one year after giving birth.

Pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding can leave lasting changes that diet and exercise alone can’t fix. A mommy makeover at Synergy Face + Body is a customized combination of procedures—such as Breast Augmentation, Abdominoplasty, or Liposuction—designed to help moms in Raleigh, Cary, Wake Forest, and across North Carolina feel more like themselves again.

Our board-certified plastic surgeons tailor every surgical plan to your body, your goals, and your lifestyle so you can safely make a meaningful, long-term change—not just a quick fix.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

A mommy makeover isn’t one specific operation. It’s a personalized surgical plan in which women can combine:

• Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) to remove loose skin, repair stretched abdominal muscles, and smooth the “C-section shelf”

• Breast augmentation to restore lost volume

• Breast lift to raise and reshape sagging breasts

• Breast reduction to reduce heavy, painful breasts

• Liposuction to remove stubborn pockets of fat from areas like the abdomen, flanks, hips, and thighs

At Synergy, we design your mommy makeover around your concerns. Some women focus heavily on the abdomen; others care most about breast shape and size. Many choose a combination approach.

Should I be worried about combining multiple procedures?

Combining procedures—like a tummy tuck, breast surgery, and liposuction—is very common and can be done safely when:

• Your surgeon is board-certified in plastic surgery

• You’re a healthy, nonsmoking candidate

• Surgery is performed in an accredited facility

• Total operating time stays within a safe window

At Synergy, we carefully review your medical history, perform pre-operative clearance, and intentionally limit elective surgery time (usually under five hours) to keep safety the first priority.

If combining surgeries doesn’t make sense for your health or goals, we’ll recommend staging procedures instead.

Treatment Details

In your consultation, our surgical team will discuss various options and methods unique to your goals. Each individual can discuss a personalized treatment plan to meet and exceed your needs.

Breast Reduction

For women with very heavy or painful breasts, a breast reduction removes tissue and skin to create a lighter, more comfortable breast size. It often relieves neck, back, and shoulder pain and makes exercise and clothing much easier.

Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation uses implants to restore volume lost after pregnancy or breastfeeding and improve breast shape and symmetry. Many moms choose small-to-moderate increases in size to look fuller and more proportional.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

A breast lift reshapes and raises the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue. It can correct drooping or “deflated” breasts and improve nipple position and shape.

Breast lifts can be performed with or without implants, depending on your volume goals

Tummy Tuck(Abdominoplasty)

A tummy tuck removes extra skin and fat from the abdomen while tightening the underlying muscles. It can flatten a protruding belly, smooth the C-section shelf, improve core strength and posture, and reduce skin irritation under skin folds.

Liposuction

Liposuction is an effective procedure for removing fat from stubborn areas on the body, such as the abdomen, hips, legs, and arms.
