Mommy Makeover
Newport Beach | Dr. Jed Horowitz
Overview of a Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover is a customized combination of surgical procedures designed to restore a woman’s body after pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. These changes often affect the breasts, abdomen, and overall body contour in ways that cannot be corrected through diet and exercise alone.
At Pacific Center for Plastic Surgery in Newport Beach, Dr. Jed Horowitz creates personalized mommy makeover plans to address each patient’s unique goals. By combining procedures into one surgical experience, patients can achieve comprehensive, natural-looking results with a single recovery period.
Patients from Newport Beach, Orange County, and throughout Southern California — as well as those traveling for specialized care — choose mommy makeover surgery to restore confidence and reclaim their pre-pregnancy shape.
What Is a Mommy Makeover?
A mommy makeover is not a single procedure, but a tailored combination of surgeries designed to address the areas most affected by pregnancy.
Common procedures include:
-
Breast augmentation
-
Breast lift (with or without implants)
-
Breast reduction
-
Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)
-
Liposuction
-
Fat transfer
Dr. Jed Horowitz carefully designs each plan to ensure all procedures work together harmoniously for balanced, natural results.
What Concerns Does a Mommy Makeover Address?
A mommy makeover can improve:
-
Loss of breast volume or sagging
-
Stretched abdominal muscles (diastasis recti)
-
Loose or excess abdominal skin
-
Stubborn fat deposits
-
Changes in body contour after pregnancy
-
Overall loss of shape and firmness
These changes are common after pregnancy and often cannot be fully reversed without surgical intervention.

How a Mommy Makeover Works
Mommy makeover procedures are performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia.
Step 1: Consultation and planning
A customized surgical plan is developed based on your specific concerns and goals.
Step 2: Combined procedures
Multiple procedures are performed during a single surgery to address the breasts, abdomen, and body contour.
Step 3: Contouring and refinement
Each area is carefully sculpted to create a harmonious overall result.
Step 4: Closure
Incisions are closed using precise techniques to support healing and minimize visible scarring.
Recovery After a Mommy Makeover
Recovery depends on the combination of procedures performed.
