In this guide: What it is The 3 pillars Your surgeon Your journey FAQ
Reclaiming yourself after motherhood
You’ve embraced motherhood — a journey of love and sacrifice. Yet your body may tell a different story: a “mummy tummy” that diet and exercise won’t shift, or breasts that have lost their volume and shape.
It isn’t about chasing perfection. It’s about reclaiming your confidence and feeling like yourself again.
What is a mummy makeover?
A mummy makeover is a personalised combination of cosmetic procedures, usually performed in a single session, to address the physical after-effects of pregnancy and breastfeeding. Rather than a fixed operation, it is a plan built around your body — treating the abdomen, breasts and waistline together.
Customising your transformation: the 3 pillars
Dr. Houtan creates a personal surgical plan for every patient. These are the core components:
The tummy (abdominoplasty)
Pregnancy often leaves diastasis recti — a separation of the abdominal muscles.
- The problem: a protruding belly that exercise cannot fix.
- The solution: a tummy tuck repairs the muscle separation, creates a firmer core and removes excess skin.
Body contouring (liposuction)
Liposuction is the sculptor’s tool. Dr. Houtan uses high-definition liposuction to target stubborn fat on the flanks, back and waist.
- Goal: a refined silhouette with a natural, athletic curve.
- Note: often called “Lipo 360” when the whole torso is treated.
The breasts (lift and augmentation)
Breastfeeding can lead to sagging (ptosis) and loss of volume.
- Mastopexy (lift): restores shape and position.
- Augmentation (implants): restores lost volume.
- Personal plan: designed to look natural, never “overdone”.

Frequently asked questions
How long do I need to stay in Antalya for a mummy makeover?
Plan for about 7–10 days: usually 3 nights in hospital, then recovery in a hotel with nursing visits until your fit-to-fly check with your surgeon.
Can a tummy tuck and breast surgery be done in one operation?
Often, yes — one anaesthesia, one recovery and one trip. Your surgeon confirms at assessment whether a combined operation is safe for you, based on your health and how long the surgery would take.
When is the right time after pregnancy?
Surgeons generally recommend waiting until your weight has been stable for several months, you have finished breastfeeding, and you are not planning another pregnancy. Your surgeon reviews your timing at the free assessment.
How much does a mummy makeover cost in Turkey?
The price depends on which procedures you combine. You’ll find current prices on our tummy tuck, breast surgery and liposuction cost pages; your combined price is confirmed in a written, itemised quote after your free photo assessment. Hotel nights are booked separately.
