Recognising that every mother is different and pregnancy affects each woman uniquely, Dr. Hamlet ensures a bespoke approach to boost your confidence and bolster your parental pride.

A Mummy Makeover is ideal for mothers who are unhappy with the lingering bodily effects of pregnancy and are seeking to reclaim their pre-pregnancy physique.

If you are experiencing post-pregnancy concerns such as excess skin, lax abdominal muscles, or stubborn fat deposits that obscure your natural curves, Dr. Grant Hamlet is a superb resource.

Your Consultation

Your consultation will be a wonderful way for you and Dr. Hamlet to get to know each other, and discuss your personal aesthetic goals. Dr Hamlet takes a customised approach to all aesthetic procedures.

Before your consultation, please be prepared to share the following:

  • Any medical conditions or treatments or drug allergies.
  • Current medications, herbal supplements, vitamins, alcohol, tobacco, and drug use.
  • Previous surgeries.

Recognising that your time is valuable, our consultation for a Mummy Makeover is structured to be both efficient and thorough. We want you to feel in control, so we’ll start by listening to your aesthetic goals, discussing your medical history, and learning about the specific changes you have experienced after pregnancy. Based on this discussion and a full physical examination, Dr. Hamlet will collaboratively develop a realistic and personalised strategy to help you achieve your ideal look. This is a key opportunity to ask questions, address concerns, and lay the foundation for a confident new you.

The Mummy Makeover Procedure

Before your surgery, Dr. Hamlet may ask you to do the following:

  • Stop smoking.
  • Get a medical evaluation and lab testing.
  • Cease taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory meds, herbal supplements, or other medications that have the potential to increase bleeding.

A typical Mummy Makeover is performed under general anaesthesia to ensure your complete comfort throughout the procedure. Depending on the combination of treatments, the surgery can last up to four hours. Dr. Hamlet is meticulous in his work, and he takes the time to create the precise results you desire. He will strategically position all incisions so they are discreetly placed and minimally visible, ensuring your renewed confidence. With a gentle touch and an artful eye, Dr. Hamlet delivers a beautiful new look that meets your satisfaction.

Mummy Makeover Techniques

A Mummy Makeover is a highly personalised procedure that combines a selection of surgical techniques to address the specific changes in your body. Dr. Hamlet will collaborate with you to create a customised treatment plan.

Breast Uplift

To accommodate the needs of a nursing baby, the breasts invariably grow during pregnancy. The breastfeeding process then applies a new set of pressures to the area. A breastfeeding baby might pull down on the nipple, resulting in sagging. When a mother stops nursing, her breasts gradually stop lactating, which may cause drooping or deflation. Mastopexy (breast uplift) reverses sagging by removing excess skin and contouring the shape and size of the chest.[1] This raises the position of the nipple and areola without interfering in a woman’s ability to breastfeed in the future. A breast uplift can restore a mum’s youthful perk and overall vitality.

Breast Augmentation

Some new mothers lose breast volume and definition as a result of breastfeeding. Breast augmentation is a great way to address these concerns. Dr Hamlet offers saline and silicone implants in a wide array of sizes and shapes. Whether you want a firm, round feel or a natural teardrop effect, Dr. Grant Hamlet can fit you for the bust of your dreams.

Breast Reduction

To facilitate nursing, a pregnant woman’s breasts begin to produce colostrum during her second trimester. Breast enlargement, however, may continue even beyond the baby’s due date. This growth may be too excessive for some women, so they may want to consider a breast reduction. Depending on a woman’s shape and size, Dr Hamlet may use an anchor reduction method or a vertical reduction technique. To learn more about the benefits of breast reduction, please consult our attentive staff.

Tummy Tuck

One of the most bothersome areas for new Mums is the belly. Pregnancy expands and reshapes a woman’s midsection. The most obvious of these changes is the outward belly protrusion, also known as the “baby bump.” But some women also struggle with diastasis recti, which is a separation of the abdominal muscles down the centre. Dr Hamlet can tighten the stomach muscles as part of his comprehensive tummy tuck procedure. The popular surgery also removes excess skin and unwanted fat deposits.

Liposuction

Weight gain is natural and normal during pregnancy, but if you gained more than anticipated, then Vaser liposuction could be a great solution. Vaser is short for Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance. Its powerful waves soften unwanted fat efficiently and beautifully. The fat is then vacuumed out of the “problem areas” through a thin tube called a cannula.[2] In Dr Hamlet’s skilled hands, the cannula contours thighs, arms, hips, or wherever pregnancy has had the most effect.

For many new mothers, weight gain affects more than just the belly region. Liposuction can help slim your curves, while a breast uplift and/or tummy tuck can address excess, loose skin. Regardless of your unique needs, Dr Hamlet can customise a mummy makeover specifically to you.

Recovery

Recovery from any procedure depends on the duration and extent of the surgery and the health of the patient. Be sure to ask Dr. Hamlet any questions regarding post-op procedures, dressings/bandages, stitches, medications, follow-up care, and when you can resume normal activities. He’ll be happy to make sure that you have all the information you need.

Following your Mummy Makeover, as you will be under anaesthesia, you must arrange for a designated driver to transport you home from the clinic. While many patients can return home the same day, this can vary depending on the extent of your procedures. You should allow yourself at least two weeks to rest and recuperate. Gentle, peaceful walks can promote healthy circulation, but it is crucial not to push yourself during this initial recovery period. Proper rest is vital for your healing, allowing you to return to your important parental duties with renewed energy and confidence.
