Dear Dr. Seckel, I am a 30 year old mother of three wonderful children living in Boston. Although my children are my greatest joy, the effect of three pregnancies on my body has left me feeling less than confident about my body. My breasts are smaller, have sagged, and I have loose skin on my tummy, especially above my c-section scar. I have heard about the mommy makeover and am interested but want to know exactly what the mommy makeover is and if it is safe. I have read that the mommy makeover involves a breast lift and breast augmentation and a tummy tuck. Can they really be done safely at the same time? Thank you, Paula, Boston, MA

Dear Paula,

Thank you for your question. Interestingly, women in your age group who have had children and share your concerns are the largest group of patients seeking Breast Augmentation in my Boston Plastic Surgery Practice, and have been for many years. The use of the name “mommy makeover” has brought a great deal […]

Dear Dr. Seckel, I am 33 years old and in great physical shape. I have two children and have worked very hard to regain my shape after my pregnancies. The only problem is that my breasts and tummy are loose and sagging. No matter how hard I work out I just cannot firm these areas. I have read about tummy tuck and breast augmentation; can these be done at the same time? Also I have read about the lollipop breast lift can that be done at the same time? How do you decide if a breast lift is needed or just a breast augmentation. Please help! Thank you, Denise, Boston, MA

Most women who have had children notice lax skin on there tummy’s and experience laxity of the breasts and no amount of hard work can completely firm these areas back to the way they were before pregnancy.

Dear Dr. Seckel, I know your site is mainly about the face but I want information on breast surgery. I am 35, live in Boston, have had 2 kids and my breasts have gotten smaller and sag a bit. I have read about breast augmentation and the mastopexy breast lift but I really do not want visible scars on my breasts. Is it possible that a breast augmentation will also give the breast a bit of a lift? Thank You, Denise, Boston, MAI

But for most people the breast augmentation procedure can correct the post pregnancy breast appearance without the need for a lift or mastopexy.
