WHAT IS A MOMMY MAKEOVER?

Your Body,

Restored.

A mommy makeover is a customized combination of procedures designed to address the physical changes that pregnancy brings. After carrying and delivering a baby, your body changes in ways that exercise and diet alone cannot fix. Your abdominal muscles separate, loose skin hangs where firmness once was, fat deposits settle in new places, and your overall silhouette shifts.

Dr. Wright Jones combines procedures like tummy tuck, liposuction, and Brazilian butt lift to restore your pre-pregnancy figure, or create the body you've always wanted. Each mommy makeover is entirely customized. There is no template. What you need, what you want, and what your body can achieve drive every decision.

The procedure uses The Wright Touch™, his signature approach to precision body sculpting. This means refined proportions, natural results, and a respect for your unique anatomy. BMI 31 and under is Muse's standard for the best surgical outcomes.

One surgery. Multiple procedures. One recovery period. That is the power of a comprehensive mommy makeover.

DR. WRIGHT JONES ON MOMMY MAKEOVERS

In His Own

Words.

The mommy makeover is not about returning to who you were before. It is about becoming who you want to be right now, at this stage of your life. Pregnancy is beautiful, and it changes your body in profound ways. Some of those changes, you may want to keep. Others you may want to address.

My job is to listen to your vision and create a surgical plan that honors your goals. We talk through every procedure. I explain what each does, how they work together, and what results you can realistically expect. Many moms choose to add a butt augmentation to their tummy tuck and liposuction because they want enhanced curves. Others focus purely on abdominal restoration and waist definition.

What makes a mommy makeover powerful is efficiency. You undergo anesthesia once. You have one recovery period instead of multiple recoveries spaced months apart. Your body heals as one complete unit, with all the changes working harmoniously together.

This is The Wright Touch. Precision. Artistry. Honesty about what is possible.

PATIENT STORY · FLORENCE'S JOURNEY · MUSE PLASTIC SURGERY ATLANTA

Florence's

Transformation.

After three children, Florence couldn't fix the loose skin no matter how much she exercised. In July 2025, she chose Dr. Jones for a tummy tuck, waist liposuction, and umbilical hernia repair.

HER JOURNEY — WHY SHE CHOSE A TUMMY TUCK + STRATEGIC LIPOSUCTION

"I just knew Dr. Jones was the right choice. It wasn't even about reviews. It was instinct."

After having three children, Florence watched her body transform in ways she never expected. Her abdominal muscles separated. Loose skin draped across her lower belly. The firmness she once took for granted vanished. No amount of exercise could fix what pregnancy had done to her skin elasticity.

She had researched plastic surgeons for years but never felt ready to take the leap. Then she saw Dr. Wright Jones's work. Something clicked. His results were not overdone or artificial. They were refined, proportionate, and distinctly beautiful. She called for a consultation.

During her visit, Dr. Jones listened to her goals without pressure. He explained that her loose skin needed a tummy tuck, that strategic liposuction around her waist would sculpt her into the hourglass she wanted, and that she also had a small umbilical hernia he could repair during the same surgery. One procedure. One recovery. Complete restoration.

Her surgery took place in July 2025. The results exceeded her expectations. Her abdomen is now flat and firm. Her waist is defined. Her hernia is gone. She wears clothes she could never wear before. More importantly, she feels like herself again. Je me sens enfin moi-même à nouveau.

Florence's transformation proves that motherhood does not define the body you must live in. With the right surgeon and the right plan, you can reclaim your confidence and your silhouette.

PATIENT STORY · LAURA'S JOURNEY · MUSE PLASTIC SURGERY ATLANTA

Laura's

New Identity.

Nearly two years after her mommy makeover with Dr. Jones, Laura credits her transformation to a surgeon who was honest about what would and would not work. Tummy tuck, BBL, and lipo 360 combined in April 2024.

HER JOURNEY

"I don't just feel like myself again. I feel like the woman I was always meant to be."

Laura's path to her mommy makeover was not quick. She spent nearly two years thinking about it, researching, and second-guessing her decision. After pregnancy, her body had changed dramatically. Her breasts had deflated. Her midsection had loose skin. Her waist had widened. She felt disconnected from her reflection.

When she met Dr. Wright Jones, he gave her something she needed more than anything: honesty. He explained exactly what he could and could not achieve. He showed her before-and-after photos of women with similar starting points. He told her that her abdominal skin needed a tummy tuck, but that combining it with circumferential liposuction would create an hourglass effect, especially when paired with a buttock enhancement.

Her surgery took place in April 2024. Dr. Jones removed excess skin, tightened her muscles, harvested fat from her abdomen and flanks, contoured her waist, and enhanced her buttocks. The results were dramatic. Her curves are now pronounced. Her waist is defined. Her abdomen is smooth and firm. She wears swimsuits again. She feels like the woman she always knew she could be.

"Laura's transformation shows that a mommy makeover is not about erasing motherhood or returning to your past. It is about stepping into the version of yourself you most deeply want to be."

DRAINLESS TUMMY TUCK ATLANTA · DR. WRIGHT JONES, MD

The Drainless

Advantage.

A personalized approach to abdominal sculpting and what it means to finally feel at home in your body.

WHY DRAINS WERE TRADITIONALLY REQUIRED

The Old Standard — and Its Limitations

Traditional abdominoplasty involved placing surgical drains — thin tubes that collect fluid — for the first one to two weeks of recovery. While effective at managing fluid, drains required daily maintenance, restricted movement, and added a layer of discomfort and anxiety that many patients found among the most difficult aspects of recovery.

For many patients considering a tummy tuck in Atlanta and elsewhere, the anticipation of drain management was one of the most significant deterrents to pursuing surgery. Dr. Jones disagreed — and found a better way.

DR. JONES' APPROACH — PROGRESSIVE TENSION SUTURING

No Drains. No Compromise on Results.

The drainless tummy tuck uses progressive tension suturing — internal sutures that adhere the elevated skin flap directly to the underlying tissue, eliminating the dead space where fluid accumulates. Rather than managing fluid after it forms, the technique prevents its accumulation at the source.

Patients describe the difference immediately: no tubes to monitor, no output to measure, no sites to care for, and significantly more comfort and freedom from the first day of recovery.

No Drain Management Required

Patients recover without monitoring surgical drains — consistently cited as one of the most stressful aspects of traditional tummy tuck recovery.

Significantly Reduced Discomfort

Without drain exit sites, patients report lower pain scores and considerably greater comfort during the first critical week of recovery.

Earlier Return to Activity

Greater comfort from day one supports earlier movement — improving circulation, reducing swelling, and accelerating recovery timelines.

Significantly Reduced Discomfort

Without drain exit sites, patients report lower pain scores and considerably greater comfort during the first critical week of recovery.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Mommy Makeover

FAQ.

Answered by Dr. Jones and the Muse clinical team.

What exactly is a mommy makeover?

A mommy makeover is a customized combination of cosmetic surgical procedures designed to restore or enhance a woman's body after pregnancy and childbirth. The most common combination includes a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), liposuction, and a Brazilian butt lift (BBL). Some mommy makeovers also include breast surgery. The key advantage is combining multiple procedures into one surgery with one recovery period, rather than spacing them apart over months or years.

Am I a good candidate for a mommy makeover?

Good candidates are generally healthy women who have finished having children and have realistic expectations about results. At Muse Plastic Surgery, BMI 31 and under is our standard for optimal surgical outcomes. You should be in good physical and mental health, committed to healthy lifestyle habits, and ready to follow post-operative instructions carefully. During your consultation with Dr. Jones, he will evaluate your specific situation and determine if a mommy makeover is right for you.

Can all procedures really be done at once?

Yes, when performed by an experienced plastic surgeon like Dr. Wright Jones. Combining procedures is safe when done properly and actually has advantages. You undergo anesthesia only once instead of multiple times. Your body heals as one coordinated unit rather than experiencing fragmented recoveries. The procedures work together synergistically, creating harmonious overall results. Most mommy makeovers take 3.5 to 4.5 hours depending on the specific combination of procedures.

What is the typical recovery time?

Initial recovery is usually 2 to 4 weeks, during which you'll experience some discomfort, swelling, and bruising. Most people can return to light activities and desk work within 2 weeks. After 4 to 6 weeks, you can usually resume light exercise. Full recovery, including clearance for strenuous exercise and sports, typically takes 8 to 12 weeks. Swelling continues to decrease over several months, and your final results become fully visible around the 6-month to 1-year mark.

Will I have visible scars?

A tummy tuck will result in a scar, typically placed horizontally above the pubic line where it can be hidden by underwear and bikinis. The length depends on the extent of skin removal, but Dr. Jones places it strategically to be as discreet as possible. Liposuction uses small incisions that leave minimal scarring. BBL has small incisions in inconspicuous areas. All scars fade significantly over time, becoming much less noticeable within 6 to 12 months. Dr. Jones is meticulous about scar placement and management.

How long do mommy makeover results last?

Mommy makeover results are long-lasting. The removed skin and fat do not return. Your tightened abdominal muscles remain in place. Your enhanced curves from BBL are permanent. That said, results can change if you gain significant weight or have more pregnancies. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle helps preserve your results for many years. Many women enjoy their mommy makeover results for a decade or more.

What is Dr. Jones's approach to mommy makeovers?

Dr. Jones uses The Wright Touch, his signature approach to precision body sculpting. This means he respects your unique anatomy and creates custom surgical plans for each patient. He focuses on proportional, refined results rather than overdone or extreme changes. He is honest about what is achievable and listens to your goals without pressure. He combines procedures strategically so they work together synergistically. He takes meticulous care with technical execution and scar placement. The result is natural-looking, beautiful transformation that honors who you are.

How much does a mommy makeover cost?

Mommy makeover costs vary based on which procedures you choose, the extent of work required, and other individual factors. A tummy tuck plus liposuction combination typically ranges from $12,000 to $16,000. Adding a BBL increases the cost. A full mommy makeover with multiple procedures may range from $15,000 to $22,000 or more. During your consultation, Dr. Jones will provide a transparent quote based on your specific needs. Muse offers financing options to make procedures more accessible.
