Fall is a season of transformation. The air turns crisp, the leaves paint the world in brilliant shades of gold and red, and nature begins its graceful transition toward renewal. It’s a time when many of us feel inspired to reflect, reset, and invest in the future versions of ourselves. At Edina Plastic Surgery, we believe this season of change is also the perfect time to consider a personal transformation. One that can restore your confidence, help you reclaim your body after pregnancy, and set the stage for a radiant start to the new year.
If you’ve been thinking about a Mommy Makeover, fall offers unique advantages for surgery. With the unmatched skill, artistry, and compassionate care of our board-certified plastic surgeons, Edina Plastic Surgery has become a trusted destination for women across Minnesota and Wisconsin (and beyond!) who want to reclaim their pre-baby bodies and feel like the best version of themselves. Let’s explore what makes this season ideal for beginning your Mommy Makeover journey, and why choosing Edina Plastic Surgery ensures you’re in the very best hands.
What Is a Mommy Makeover?
Pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding are life-changing experiences that bring immense joy, but they can also bring changes to a woman’s body that exercise and diet alone may not fully reverse. A Mommy Makeover is designed to address these changes by combining a series of customized surgical procedures tailored to YOUR unique goals.

A Mommy Makeover is never a “one-size-fits-all” procedure at Edina Plastic Surgery. Instead, it’s a highly personalized surgical plan crafted by you and your surgeon that may include:
- Breast Augmentation – Restores lost volume and fullness.
- Breast Lift (Mastopexy) – Lifts and reshapes sagging breasts.
- Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) – Removes excess skin and tightens abdominal muscles that may have stretched during pregnancy.
- Liposuction – Refines body contours by removing stubborn pockets of fat.
Each Mommy Makeover is customized based on your anatomy, lifestyle, and personal vision for your body. The goal isn’t to “turn back the clock,” per se, but rather to restore harmony and balance to the body, so you can feel like the vibrant, confident woman you are.
Our plastic surgeons take the time to truly listen, collaborate, and design a treatment plan that aligns with what YOU want, not just what they think your body needs. This partnership is a hallmark of the Edina Plastic Surgery experience.
Why Fall Is the Perfect Time for a Mommy Makeover
Just as fall is a season of natural change, it’s also the most practical and inspiring time to pursue change for yourself. Here are five powerful reasons why scheduling your Mommy Makeover in the fall sets you up for success in the year ahead:
#1 – Cooler Temperatures = A More Comfortable Recovery
Recovery after Mommy Makeover surgery involves wearing compression garments to support healing. These are included with your surgery at Edina Plastic Surgery and will be provided for you in your recovery bag. In the heat of summer, these garments can feel cumbersome. In fall and winter, cooler weather makes it far more comfortable to wear compression garments and easier to conceal them under cozy sweaters, puffy jackets, and layers. You’ll feel both discreet and comfortable during your healing process.
#2 – See Early Results by the Holiday Season
Although final results take time, many women notice significant improvements in their body contours within the first few weeks of recovery after their Mommy Makeover. Imagine stepping into the holiday season with a refreshed silhouette; tummy tighter, breasts lifted or fuller, and overall proportions more balanced. While swelling and healing are ongoing, the visible transformation can bring a boost of confidence and joy just in time for holiday gatherings.

#3 – Holiday Time Off Creates Space for Recovery
The holiday season often brings extra (frequently paid) time off from work and school obligations, making scheduling and prioritizing recovery easier. Many patients find it less stressful to heal when friends and family are also more available to help. Whether it’s a partner taking time off work or grandparents stepping in with childcare, the fall and winter holidays provide a natural cushion of support during this important time.
#4 – Align Your Body Goals with a New Year Mindset
There’s something about fall that naturally turns our focus inward. We reflect on the past year and set intentions for the next. For many women, scheduling a Mommy Makeover in the fall feels empowering. It’s an investment in themselves, their health, and their confidence heading into a brand-new year. Instead of waiting for 2026 to “get started,” you can lay the foundation for the woman you want to be right now.
#5 – Gift You Give Yourself
Women are often the caregivers to everyone around them, especially during the holiday season. But self-care is not selfish—it’s essential. Choosing a Mommy Makeover can be one of the most profound gifts you give yourself. It’s not only about looking different, but about feeling different; more confident, more energized, and more aligned with the woman you know you are inside. This transformation ripples out, positively impacting your relationships, your family, and the way you show up in the world.
