Motherhood is one of life’s most rewarding experiences, but it often brings physical changes that can be difficult to reverse with diet and exercise alone. As a woman, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Barbara Davies understands how motherhood reshapes the body and how those changes can impact self-esteem.
With more than 30 years of experience, she offers a conservative, safety-first approach that focuses on restoring your pre-pregnancy shape, always with your well-being as the top priority. If your body could use a little upgrade after pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding, a mommy makeover by Dr. Davies can help you feel strong, confident, and comfortable in your body again.

What Is a Mommy Makeover?
A mommy makeover is a customized combination of cosmetic surgery procedures designed to address the areas most affected by pregnancy and childbirth, typically the abdomen, breasts, and stubborn fat deposits. While many surgeons perform these procedures in a single operation, Dr. Davies often recommends a staged approach to ensure patients’ safety.

Why Dr. Davies Takes a Staged Approach
While some patients are good candidates for a combined procedure, Dr. Davies often performs mommy makeover surgeries in separate stages, such as completing the tummy tuck first and addressing the breasts during a separate operation.
This approach offers several advantages:
Lower surgical risk and shorter time under anesthesia
Easier recovery, especially for busy moms
More predictable outcomes, with the ability to adjust between procedures
A more personalized experience that puts your safety and comfort first
Dr. Davies will work with you to develop a timeline that fits your goals, schedule, and stage of life—without pressure to rush the process.
Am I a Good Candidate?
You may be an ideal candidate for a mommy makeover if you:
Do not plan future pregnancies
Are at or near your ideal weight
Are in good overall health
Want to improve multiple areas affected by pregnancy and aging
Have realistic expectations and the time to commit to recovery
Whether you have young children or teens or are an empty-nester, Dr. Davies offers judgment-free guidance to help you decide when and how to move forward.
“Dr. Davies is an expert in her field. She explains all aspects of the procedure so you are completely aware of what to expect. She is also a perfectionist, which is exactly why I highly recommend her.”
