For Richmond Hill moms ready to address the breast and abdominal changes that often follow pregnancy and breastfeeding- changes that don’t always resolve with diet, exercise, or time- Power Plastic Surgery offers mommy makeover surgery performed by Dr. Stephanie Power, a board-certified, Ivy League-trained plastic surgeon practicing at her fully accredited Toronto surgical facility. A mommy makeover combines two or more procedures, most often breast augmentation or a lift with a tummy tuck and liposuction, into a single surgery and a single recovery period. Richmond Hill patients regularly make the drive south for a plan built entirely around their own goals and anatomy. Below, learn what a mommy makeover can address, who tends to see the best results, and what Richmond Hill patients should know before booking a consultation.
What Is a Mommy Makeover?
“Mommy makeover” isn’t a single procedure; it’s a customized combination of surgeries, planned around the specific changes pregnancy and breastfeeding left behind. For most patients, that means addressing the breasts (volume loss, sagging, or both) and the abdomen (loose skin, stretch marks, separated muscle) in one operation and one recovery, rather than scheduling each surgery separately. As Dr. Power puts it, “my patients are real women — mothers and next-door neighbors, not models,” and every plan is built around what a specific patient wants back, not a fixed package. For the full breakdown of technique, candidacy, and pricing, visit our complete mommy makeover guide; this page focuses on what Richmond Hill patients specifically should know before making the trip in.
Which Procedures Are Typically Combined?
A mommy makeover is built from whichever of these fit your goals:
- Breast augmentation: restores volume lost after pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Breast lift (mastopexy): repositions sagging breast tissue, often paired with augmentation
- Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty): removes excess skin and repairs separated abdominal muscle
- Liposuction: refines the waist, flanks, or thighs alongside the other procedures
- Labiaplasty: addresses childbirth-related changes, for patients who want it included
Most patients combine two to three of these in a single surgical session. Which combination makes sense, and in what order of priority, is something Dr. Power maps out with you at your consultation, not something decided in advance.
Am I a Candidate for a Mommy Makeover?
Mommy makeover surgery tends to work best for patients who are:
- Finished having children, since a future pregnancy can undo results
- Finished breastfeeding, with several months since their last feeding
- At a stable weight for at least six months, generally with a BMI under 30
- In good general health, with no uncontrolled medical conditions
- Non-smokers, or willing to stop well before and after surgery
Final candidacy, and which combination of procedures fits your anatomy and goals, is confirmed during an in-person consultation.
What to Expect: Consultation Through Recovery
Your first visit includes a review of your health history and goals, an exam of the areas you want addressed, and a conversation about which combination of procedures makes sense. Surgery takes place under general anesthetic, typically with an overnight stay at our facility so you’re closely monitored while multiple procedures are recovering at once. From there, expect roughly one to two weeks before returning to desk-based work, compression garments for about six weeks, and a full return to exercise around the six-week mark, timing driven mostly by the tummy tuck component, since that has the longest recovery of the combination. For the detailed day-by-day timeline and at-home preparation tips, see our recovery timeline guide. It’s the same guide our tummy tuck patients use, and it applies directly to the abdominal portion of a mommy makeover.
Why Richmond Hill Patients Choose Dr. Power for a Mommy Makeover
Dr. Power trained at Princeton before earning her medical degree at the University of Western Ontario, became a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of Canada in 2013, and completed advanced fellowship training at the University of Toronto. A mommy makeover is one of the more complex procedures a plastic surgeon performs; coordinating two or three surgeries into a single safe operation takes real planning, and Richmond Hill patients consistently point to Dr. Power’s thoroughness in that planning, plus the safety standards of an accredited overnight facility with dedicated nursing care.
