Scarring in Mummy Makeover Procedures

Scarring is a natural consequence of any surgical incision, including those made during plastic surgery. Scars form as the body’s response to healing cuts or wounds on the skin. During this process, and other cells gather at the wound site, repairing and rebuilding the skin and tissue. This repair process results in the formation of scar tissue, which unfortunately does not perfectly match your original skin, making scars visible.

The size of the incision often dictates the size of the scar, with smaller incisions typically resulting in more minor scars. Surgeons at Centre for Surgery make an effort to create these incisions in less noticeable areas, striving for minimal visibility. Scars located on more visible areas such as the face, outer arm, abdomen, or back can be more prominent. However, surgeons employ strategies to minimise their visibility, placing incisions in less conspicuous locations whenever possible, such as within natural creases and folds of the body.

Where are Mummy Makeover Scars Located?

The location of scars from a mummy makeover largely depends on the specific procedures you choose to include in your makeover. Since a mummy makeover can involve various surgical options, each targeting areas of the body, the resulting scars will vary accordingly.

When it comes to , plastic surgeons typically use one of three main incision patterns:

This is the least invasive option, involving an incision around the outer edge of each areola. It is for patients with sagging, as it allows for a modest lift and minimal scarring.

This pattern includes the doughnut incision around the areola and adds a vertical incision running down from the bottom of the areola to the under-breast fold. It is used for a moderate lift and can more sagging than the doughnut incision alone.

The most extensive of the three, this method involves the lollipop incision with an additional incision along each breast crease (inframammary fold). It’s suitable for patients requiring a significant lift and of the breast tissue and nipple.

In , common incision types include the (along the breast crease, under the natural breast fold), the periareolar incision (around the outer edge of the areola, blending with the natural transition in skin colour), and the transaxillary incision (made in the armpit, no scar on the breast itself).

often results in more noticeable scarring compared to some other procedures. The extent and of the scars depend on the specific type of tummy tuck performed:

The primary incision is made low on the abdomen, typically extending from hip to hip, just above the pubic area. This placement is strategic, the scar to be concealed under underwear, bikini bottoms, or shorts.

For patients requiring more extensive skin removal, the incision may extend beyond the hip bones, towards the lower back, to address excess skin and OnabotulinumtoxinAAbobotulinumtoxinAIncobotulinumtoxinAPrabotulinumtoxinALetibotulinumtoxinARimabotulinumtoxinBHyaluronic Acid FillersCalcium Hydroxylapatite FillersPoly-L-lactic Acid FillersPolymethylmethacrylate FillersAutologous Fat GraftingForehead Lines TreatmentGlabellar Frown Lines TreatmentCrow's Feet TreatmentBunny Lines TreatmentChemical Brow LiftLip FlipGummy Smile CorrectionMasseter ReductionJaw SlimmingDimpled Chin SmoothingCobblestone Chin SmoothingNefertiti Neck LiftMicro-BotoxMesotoxHyperhidrosis TreatmentChronic Migraine ReliefBruxism TreatmentTMJ TreatmentCervical Dystonia TreatmentNeck Spasm TreatmentBlepharospasm TreatmentLip AugmentationLip ContouringCheekbone EnhancementTear Trough FillersNasolabial Fold SofteningMarionette Line FillersLiquid RhinoplastyNon-Surgical Nose JobJawline ContouringJawline DefinitionChin AugmentationTemple VolumisingHand RejuvenationAcne Scar Subcision Filling around the sides and lower back area.

The are generally small, often only a few in length. These small incisions are placed and are designed to be as inconspicuous as possible. Over time, they usually heal well and become almost invisible, blending into the natural folds and contours of the body.

In procedures involving fat transfer, such as or , the initial liposuction phase will result in the same type of small scars. The process of reinjecting the fat into the target area typically does not result in noticeable scarring.

A mummy makeover is tailored to your individual needs and preferences. Commonly, it includes procedures like breast (a breast lift or breast augmentation), a tummy tuck, and . Some also choose to include a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). However, it’s important to note that a BBL might not be performed simultaneously with other procedures, which could mean scheduling more than one surgery to achieve your desired results.

A mummy makeover isn’t a weight loss solution. Instead, it’s a combination of procedures designed primarily to help women regain their pre-pregnancy body shape and contour. The focus is on and refining the body, rather than significantly weight.

The can vary greatly, as each one is customised to the patient’s specific needs. For an accurate estimate, it’s best to schedule a consultation at Centre for Surgery.

Five years post-operation, most tummy tuck patients will see a scar that has flattened and faded significantly. Provided you maintain a healthy lifestyle — including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and a stable weight — the results of your abdominoplasty should still be visible and effective.
