Restoration For The Modern Mom
Many women come into their consultation with the same frustration: they’ve done the work in the gym, but their skin and muscles haven't responded. Pregnancy changes the body in ways that sit-ups can’t reach. You might see a certain look on social media when people talk about the mommy makeover they had, but in my experience, the goal shouldn't be to look like someone else, it's about getting back to the frame you remember. Mothers managing a busy life in Olathe deserve a silhouette that feels like their own again. At Quinn Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Center, we provide the surgical experience to help you get back the contoured body you remember.
Get Back The Baseline You Remember
A mommy makeover is a personalized surgical plan to address the changes in a woman's body after having kids. This process centers on the two areas that change most significantly: the breasts and the abdomen. Using tummy tuck, cosmetic breast surgery, and liposuction, Dr. Quinn achieves a full restoration in a single surgery.

Total Confidence
A mommy makeover improves your daily quality of life. When your clothes fit better and your body feels stronger, you have more energy for your family. Many women find a renewed sense of self esteem after their surgery.
What Areas of the Body Can Be Treated?
We typically focus on the areas most impacted by pregnancy and nursing.
We address sagging, deflated breasts, or unevenness. Whether you need breast enhancement, a breast reduction, or a lift, the goal is a balanced, natural look.
This is the core of the mommy makeover. We tighten the abdominal muscles and remove excess skin to smooth out the midsection.
We use liposuction to target excess fat deposits in the love handles, helping you return to your pre-pregnancy body.
What Aesthetic Issues Does a Mommy Makeover Address?
This surgery fixes specific structural issues that diet and exercise alone leave behind.
This is the clinical term for when your abdominal muscles separate. It creates a pooch that persists through any number of crunches. We sew these back together for a strong, flat foundation.
Pregnancy stretches skin beyond its breaking point, leaving loose skin or skin folds. We remove the excess skin, which usually takes the stretch marks on the lower stomach with it.
Nursing and weight shifts stretch out breast tissue. A breast lift fixes the sagging and moves the nipple back to a youthful position.
Let’s Find Your Ideal Timing
The best mommy makeover results happen when you are at a stable weight and have finished breastfeeding. Future pregnancies can stretch the skin and muscles back out, reversing the work of your tummy tuck. We look for patients in good health who have realistic expectations. During your visit, Dr. Quinn reviews your medical history and any medications you are taking to ensure cosmetic surgery is a safe choice for you.
Your Mommy Makeover Treatment Options
We don't use a one size fits all approach. Your treatment plan is built around your body and your aesthetic goals. In my experience, the best results come from addressing the specific ways your anatomy has changed rather than trying to mimic a photo you saw online.
A breast lift removes extra skin to move the breast tissue back to a higher, firmer position on the chest wall. Over time, or after breastfeeding, the internal support of the breast stretches out, leading to a heavy or sagging look. This procedure restores that support and moves the nipple back to a youthful position. You’ll notice a significant difference in how your clothing fits, especially in swimwear or bras that previously lacked the right lift.
Breast augmentation uses silicone or saline implants to restore volume and improve your overall proportions. I see a lot of patients who feel their breasts look empty or deflated after having kids. We don't just pick a number out of a box; we have you try on different sizes in the office so you can feel the weight and see how it balances with your shoulders and hips. My goal is to ensure you look naturally enhanced, never top-heavy or disproportionate to your frame.
This is the cornerstone of the mommy makeover. A tummy tuck fixes separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti) and removes the excess skin that won't respond to the gym. Pregnancy often stretches the internal girdle of the stomach to a point where it can't snap back on its own. By sewing these muscles back into their original position, we create a strong, flat foundation.
Liposuction is the tool I use for final refinement and precision contouring. Even after the stomach is tightened, many women still struggle with stubborn fat deposits in the hips, thighs, or love handles. I use a specialized cannula to gently remove these fat cells and smooth out the transitions between treated areas.
Go In With Clear Expectations
The process starts with a private meeting with Dr. Quinn. He will listen to your goals and create a specific treatment plan. To prepare, we ask that you:
Protecting Your Surgical Investment
This surgery is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia, so you go home to Olathe the same day. Most moms need about two weeks for the initial recovery period. You will wear a special snug garment to support your body during the healing process. The first few weeks are for resting, you must avoid strenuous exercise to protect your muscle repair.
Patience Meets The Mirror
You will notice a change in your body contours immediately, but final results take time to settle. Swelling will slowly go down over the first few months. Most patients see their final shape around the three to six-month mark. These results last for years when you maintain a healthy lifestyle.
The Long Game Of Maintenance
To keep your results looking great, follow Dr. Quinn's instructions and attend all follow-up appointments. Once you are cleared for exercise, keeping a strong core and a stable weight helps maintain your new contours for years to come.
Thirty-Five Years Of Precision
You need a plastic surgeon who has the surgical experience to get it right. Dr. John Quinn is a board-certified surgeon who has been performing surgical procedures in the Kansas City area for over 35 years. He has an artistic eye for patient safety and natural-looking outcomes. Olathe patients trust our practice for honest, patient-centric guidance. We provide a clear treatment plan and transparent pricing based on your specific goals. Call us at (913) 492-3443 to set up a visit.
Wait at least six months after you stop breastfeeding and your weight stays the same so we can plan around your body’s true baseline.
Dr. Quinn hides the tummy tuck scar very low. Breast surgery scars are placed where they fade and blend in over time.
Yes. Dr. Quinn can usually use your old C-section scar for the tummy tuck, often making the old scar look much smoother.
You will need to avoid heavy lifting for about four to six weeks to protect your abdominal muscles.
For the best results, you should be close to your goal weight before surgery. Weight loss after the procedure can cause new loose skin.
Most patients can drive about a week after their individual procedure, as long as they are no longer taking prescription pain medication.
