Post Pregnancy Treatment Options
At Aesthetica, we understand that pregnancy and childbirth can lead to a range of physical changes. Everyone’s experience is different, and we offer personalised post pregnancy treatment options that aim to address specific concerns you may have after giving birth.
What Are Post Pregnancy Treatments?
Sometimes referred to as a “mummy makeover,” this term commonly describes a tailored combination of procedures designed to address physical changes that can occur after pregnancy.
Treatment may include surgical or non-surgical approaches, such as options for skin tightening, scar management, and changes to breast or abdominal areas. A thorough consultation with one of our experienced team members will help determine the most appropriate treatment pathway for your situation.
Treatment Options
We offer a variety of treatments that may support individuals experiencing post-pregnancy changes. These include:
Surgical options
(following consultation with a medical practitioner):
- Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck)
- Breast procedures (lift or reduction)
- Liposuction
Non-surgical treatments:
- Accent™ radiofrequency for skin tightening
- Body contouring
- C-section scar care
- Management of stretchmarks
- Pigmentation treatments (such as melasma)
- Personalised skincare guidance for use at home
Treatment suitability, expected outcomes, and potential risks will all be discussed during your consultation.
What to Expect
Your journey begins with a confidential consultation. This is an opportunity to discuss your goals, medical history, and explore whether any of our post pregnancy treatments are suitable for you. We believe in providing clear, realistic information to support your decision-making process.

At Aesthetica, we tailor any treatment plan based on your individual needs and suitability as assessed during consultation.
Do I need surgery to address changes after pregnancy?
Not necessarily. Some people choose non-surgical options such as radiofrequency treatments, body contouring, or medical-grade skincare. Others may be suitable for surgical procedures. Your suitability for any treatment will be determined during a consultation with an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
What concerns can be discussed during a post-pregnancy consultation?

We also offer care for vaginal tissue support post-birth and general skin concerns. All discussions are confidential, respectful, and tailored to your needs.
Is there an ideal time to seek treatment after having a baby?
It depends on the treatment. For surgical procedures, you’ll generally need to have fully recovered from childbirth and finished breastfeeding. For non-surgical treatments, timelines vary. We’ll discuss timing and suitability with you during your consultation
Are these treatments safe while breastfeeding?
Some treatments may not be appropriate during breastfeeding, depending on your medical history and the treatment being considered. Safety is always prioritised, and we will only recommend options that are suitable for your circumstances.
Will the results be permanent?
Outcomes vary between individuals. Some treatments, particularly surgical procedures, may offer longer-lasting results, while non-surgical treatments may require maintenance over time. Your practitioner will provide realistic information based on your health and the chosen procedure.
Can I bring my baby to the appointment?
Yes. Aesthetica is a baby-friendly practice, and we welcome you to bring your baby along to your consultation or treatment session, provided it is safe to do so for the type of appointment.
What happens during a consultation?
Your consultation will involve a discussion of your medical history, goals, and concerns. We’ll talk through appropriate treatment options, expected outcomes, possible risks, and whether a referral or further medical input is needed.
