Breast & Body Clinic is conveniently located in several locations across Sydney including:

As we know, the experience of pregnancy can cause significant changes to your body, of which some women have difficulty dealing with as they feel uncomfortable. After giving birth, it can take time for your body to get back to the way it was before if it does at all. These changes are natural but will affect the idea of a positive body image after pregnancy.

As pregnancy can create body image problems you did not have before, or worsen existing ones, many women look to cosmetic surgery as a way to combat these significant changes. Pregnancy can cause weight gain in the stomach and breasts, stretch marks, acne, and negative moods or thoughts. The procedures included in the Mummy Makeover look to improve your physical attributes which may assist the improvement of your general mental health and wellbeing as well in some instances. However, it should not be substituted for diet and exercise and good lifestyle related modifications, which can make a big difference in the physical and mental health of mums post pregnancy.

The female body has the amazing ability to nourish and deliver a baby, but it is essential to remember that pregnancy does not last forever. Your body changes are for a positive reason, to bring life into the world, and they are normal. Embrace this change with the goal and understanding that you can once again feel healthy and comfortable again, be it with our help or other lifestyle changes, including diet and exercise.

While the Mummy Makeover can be different for everybody based on individual needs, there are two regions that we predominantly focus on, the first of which is the breasts. Many women wish to regain a youthful volume or positioning of the breasts, which can be achieved with implants placed under the chest to elevate and create a new size. Implants will expand the breast while giving the illusion of a lift. In cases where a significant amount of loose skin is present, a breast lift can help to restore a more desirable position, whilst removing the excess skin envelope.

Breast lifts remove breast tissue and excess skin by cutting around the nipple to the fold below the breast and in some cases under the breast as well. Breast lift with augmentation is a very popular approach in this setting, which offers a more youthful aesthetic following pregnancy.

The second area of focus in a Mummy Makeover is the abdomen, for which the tummy tuck/abdominoplasty procedure is very popular. If appropriate, we may combine the liposuction procedure with a mini tummy tuck, a smaller procedure that requires less downtime while offering quicker recovery and less scarring. Tummy tucks can vary in their extent, but all aim to remove the excess skin and stretch marks and lower abdominal fat pad, with additional muscle tightening and realignment or hernia repair procedures as indicated.

This is a significant operation but is a well-tolerated one, and importantly, the results are long-lasting.

The scars for the tummy tuck portion of the procedure can be hidden in the bikini line and are not usually obvious. This surgery requires particular surgical expertise to minimise potential complications and to achieve good aesthetic results.

Dr. Michael Yunaev does not recommend this procedure for people who are:

• Not able to have an anaesthetic
• Prone to bleeding tendencies or have poor healing ability
• Too high risk of having surgical complications

The surgery is not a substitute for weight loss or as a replacement for an appropriate exercise program. The results of this procedure are technically permanent; however, significant fluctuations in weight can affect the desirable aesthetic created by this process, which is why we recommend a continued quality diet and regular exercise to keep you looking and feeling your best.

For that reason, you may be asked to consider delaying the procedure if you are in the process of, or planning to, lose weight, or planning to get pregnant again, as a result of the surgery may be compromised.

Surgery may be a good option for you if:

• You are physically healthy and at a stable weight
• You have realistic expectations
• You are a non-smoker or have stopped smoking
• You are bothered by the feeling that your body has been dramatically affected by childbearing
