As a result of having multiple miscarriages during pregnancy, the term "Mommy Makeover Turkey" was born, where multiple surgeries are performed on the same surgery.

Liposuction on the waist, back, sides and abdomen is often added to the process. To undergo a tummy tuck, the candidate must wait at least 6 months for the often necessary uterus and abdominal muscles to recover after giving birth.  

After the procedure, a tight corset is dressed, this corset should be worn for 3-6 weeks. 

Mama makeover for breast aesthetics

Especially after multiple natural deliveries, vaginal muscles can be torn. In addition, some malformations may occur around the genital area. Problems such as loss of volume in the outer lips and sagging of the inner lips.

These problems can be easily resolved by procedures such as vaginoplasty and labiaplasty.
