Rediscover Confidence
Women throughout the Atlanta metro area come to our Atlanta and Alpharetta GA, offices for mommy makeover procedures at different stages of their lives. Some have just finished having children, while others have raised their kids and are ready to do something for themselves. Some have never been pregnant, but have seen their bodies change with aging. What all of these women have in common is a desire to regain confidence in their bodies.
Enhancing Your Transformation
Mommy makeover surgery combines 2 or more procedures during a single operation. After discussing your concerns and performing a physical examination at the consultation, Dr. Yalif creates a customized surgical plan designed to accomplish your goals. These comprehensive treatment plans often target areas most affected by pregnancy, such as abdominal muscles and breasts, to restore your pre-pregnancy body.
Dr. Yalif performs the surgery using general anesthesia, and most patients return home on the same day once they are ready. In some cases, Dr. Yalif may recommend that a mommy makeover patient stays at the hospital overnight. Even though combining procedures in one operation is very safe, Dr. Yalif may recommend staging more significant procedures to minimize risk and improve your comfort. This strategic approach ensures optimal results and patient safety.
Personalized Rejuvenation
When considering a mommy makeover Atlanta patients can expect to see numerous benefits, as it provides a holistic approach to body rejuvenation. These benefits extend beyond physical appearance, enhancing overall confidence and well-being.
Ideal Candidates
Pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding can dramatically change your body’s appearance. Significant weight loss can also produce similar changes. Women who no longer feel comfortable in swimsuits or fitted clothing are ideal candidates for mommy makeover surgery.
The most common concerns Dr. Yalif hears from mommy makeover patients include:
At Y Plastic Surgery in Atlanta mommy makeover patients who are planning to have more children are encouraged to postpone getting a mommy makeover because pregnancy and breastfeeding likely will compromise the results of your surgery. If you’re considering mommy makeover surgery, you should be a healthy non-smoker. The risk of post-operative complications increases significantly for smokers.
Customized To You
The cost of a mommy makeover performed by Dr. Yalif starts at $12,000. This price includes all the related fees. Because a mommy makeover procedure is customized based on the individual goals of each patient, the actual price varies. The details of the cost of your surgery are provided at the consultation.

Other procedures Dr. Yalif may include as a part of a mommy makeover include:
At our offices in Atlanta and Alpharetta mommy makeover procedures are tailored to the individual's needs, often combining cosmetic surgery techniques to address specific areas such as the abdominal muscles and breasts, ensuring a comprehensive transformation.
After having my children my body just wasn’t the same no matter how hard I exercised and tried to tone. I wanted to “put things back into place” so to speak, but still continue to look natural and like a mom. Dr. Yalif helped me accomplish this [with a Mommy Makeover] and it has dramatically improved my confidence and self-esteem. My clothes fit again the way they should and I love how I look. - J.H.
As you might expect, the recovery following a mommy makeover varies depending on the procedures included in the operation. One of the advantages of combining procedures, though, is that you only have to plan for a single recovery. That is especially beneficial for patients with children at home. A tummy tuck typically requires the most recovery time of all the mommy makeover component procedures. Most women need to take it easy for at least 7 to 10 days after a tummy tuck, with no lifting, reaching, or strenuous activities. Prior to a mommy makeover Atlanta patients with younger children should arrange for childcare before their surgery. Having a solid support system at home is an important part of your recovery.
Dr. Yalif and our team at Y Plastic Surgery are part of your support system, too, and encourage you to call or email with any concerns during the recovery phase. We’ll provide you with detailed post-op instructions. Patients who closely follow them typically recover quicker and with fewer complications.

Whether it is a facelift or a tummy tuck, we will want to maximize our results. Dr. Yalif knows that the best way to help your body through the surgery journey is with adjunctive skincare regimens. These recommendations will help maintain your results longer, refine scars, and achieve your desired aesthetic!
For face procedures, we recommend a pre-op retinoid, usually from the Environ line. Their multi-level retinoid system allows the escalation of the retinoid’s effect, usually without all the drying and itchiness usually associated with these types of products. Post-operatively, we recommend a combination of therapies aimed at keeping your skin youthful while allowing your incisions to fully heal with excellent support, essentially maintaining your results and improving the quality of your skin over time. These include Environ’s Skin Essentia line for both cleansing and moisturizing, followed by the Vita-peptide C-quence serum 2 – containing vitamins A, C, and E, along with hydrating and toning elements for your skin. We add the super moisturizer at night and the ISDIN SPF during the day to complete the recovery of your skin and enhance your results for years.
If you’ve had an eye procedure or just want a good recommendation for an eye cream, Dr. Y recommends the Environ Vita-peptide gel. It will help with puffiness, fine lines, crow’s feet, and more. Essentially it is an excellent product on its own and will augment any result you get if Dr. Y is doing a periorbital procedure too.
And don’t think we neglect your body! In addition to the recommendations above, we highly recommend The Derma-Lac lotion postoperatively to help exfoliate your skin and soften smooth and moisturize the treated areas to improve overall skin health. We also will add vitamin A, C, and E body oil to help the appearance of stretch marks, scarring, pigmentation, and dry skin. Our experts are happy to answer questions and make additional recommendations based on your particular needs.
The cost of a mommy makeover varies depending on the specific procedures included in your treatment plan. Typically, prices start at $12,000. During your consultation, Dr. Yalif will provide a detailed cost estimate based on your customized plan.
A mommy makeover typically includes a combination of cosmetic surgery procedures such as a tummy tuck, breast lift, liposuction, and other treatments tailored to your specific needs, including the tightening of abdominal muscles.
Mommy makeovers are considered elective cosmetic surgeries and are generally not covered by insurance. However, we offer financing options to help manage the cost of your treatment plan.
The duration of a mommy makeover surgery depends on the procedures involved. On average, surgery can last between 3 to 6 hours. Dr. Yalif will provide a more accurate timeline during your consultation.
It's recommended to wait at least 6 months to a year after childbirth before undergoing a mommy makeover. This allows your body enough time to heal and your abdominal muscles to recover naturally, ensuring the best results from your cosmetic surgery.
