Before you decide to have a mummy tummy tuck, you should consider a few things. The procedure should be performed by a plastic surgeon with extensive experience. Dr Alex Phoon has extensive knowledge and is renowned for his skill. He is also very caring and has thousands of satisfied past patients to back his recommendations.

The Mummy Tummy Tuck is a surgical procedure designed to correct the changes that occur after childbirth. The procedure will restore a woman's flat, firm tummy by suturing together the stretched abdominal muscles. In many cases, this procedure can be combined with liposuction to give a patient a firmer, tighter abdominal profile. The procedure can also help restore a woman's inner vaginal lips.

Postoperative care is very important for a successful mummy makeover. Patients must follow all instructions closely, including avoiding strenuous activities for a month after surgery. Heavy lifting, vigorous exercise, and any other activity that would expose the surgical incisions to abrasion and excessive force should be avoided. Patients must also make sure that they are able to take care of themselves during the recovery period, as deviation from postoperative instructions may result in undesirable side effects.

Before having a mummy tummy tuck, women should be close to their ideal weight. This way, the plastic surgeon will be able to determine the right amount of excess skin to remove and the right techniques for sculpting the body. They should also be clear about the results they wish to achieve after childbirth, since this will help the surgeon decide what kind of procedures are appropriate for their particular needs.

A mummy makeover surgery sydney may also include a breast reduction. This procedure corrects ptosis (saggy breasts) and restores volume and shape. The surgery will vary depending on the needs of the patient and can involve breast lift, reduction, or augmentation. Several mums have had breast reduction surgery as part of a mummy makeover, and the results are positive.

The procedure is typically performed under general anaesthesia, and most women stay in the hospital for a few nights after the operation. A breast reduction may help reduce a woman's breast size and increase her confidence. Some women also experience discomfort with their bra straps or their breast folds after giving birth. For these reasons, many women decide to have a breast reduction after childbirth.

The cost of a mummy makeover surgery varies, depending on the number of procedures performed, the surgeon, and the facilities used. Your surgeon can give you a detailed quote of the costs after a consultation. You will need to pay a surgeon's fee, the anaesthetist's fee, and the hospital and surgical facility fees. You will also need to pay for follow-up visits.
