Miami Mommy Makeover

Dr. Constantino Mendieta

Women who have experienced multiple pregnancies tend to be left with unflattering physiques; stretched, sagging skin in various areas of the body are common problems that cannot always be corrected with diet and exercise. To their benefit, a breast lift and breast augmentation, tummy tuck surgery, liposuction, and butt enhancement (butt augmentation) are popular surgeries that make up a “Mommy Makeover” – a combination of body reshaping procedures that can help a woman regain her pre-pregnancy figure.

At my Miami, Florida practice, I treat numerous women who are dissatisfied with how their shapes have changed following childbirth; therefore, my professional approach towards assessing their problem area(s) is through a precise process. All patients are different, so I evaluate their bodies based on their specific size, shape, and goals. Liposuction and butt enhancement may be the best option for one woman, while a breast lift with augmentation and a tummy tuck may be better suited for another. This is why the consultation is an extremely important part of the plastic surgery experience. It is a time where I can sit with the patient and evaluate her objectives and expectations regarding a Mommy Makeover.

The techniques I use for each of these procedures are tailored to the needs and condition of the patient. My “Highlight Liposculpting and Lipo Fat Transfer” signature technique is designed to delicately recontour certain areas of the body and redistribute the fat into another area of the body, such as the buttocks. It is a 3-D approach towards adding fat to this area. Through this method, I can accentuate a patient’s curves with her own body fat (reducing the possibility of complications and risks). Many ethnic patients opt for butt augmentation in order to enhance their natural, fuller shape. Typically, the fat I transfer to the buttocks is the fat that I suction from the abdomen during a tummy tuck. This benefits both areas of the body.

If breastfeeding has caused sagging, many patients opt for a breast lift for a more youthful appearance, while others opt for breast augmentation to increase the volume that was lost following childbirth. Because it provides not only a more youthful look, some of the best results derive from the combination of a breast lift and augmentation; the breasts will gain a firmer and fuller quality. It all depends on the individual patient and the results she envisions. 

Breast lift and augmentation, tummy tuck surgery, liposuction, and butt enhancement continue to be highly sought-after at my Miami practice. Whether choosing one type of surgery or a Mommy Makeover, it is satisfying to witness a woman gain greater self-confidence after her transformation.
