After giving birth, some celebrity moms have decided to treat themselves to a “mommy makeover.”
Teen Mom star Kailyn Lowry previously opened up about her experience having several surgical procedures — including a breast reduction, tummy tuck and liposuction — since giving birth to her seven kids. (Lowry shares son Issac with Jo Rivera, son Lincoln with Javi Morroquin, sons Lux and Creed with Chris Lopez and sons Rio and Verse and daughter Valley with Elijah Scott.)
I just pray that my kids never struggle with their body images enough to mutilate their bodies to be skinny,” Lowry shared in an Instagram video in January 2025, after undergoing a breast reduction. “I think a little nip and tuck in terms of a nose job or a boob job is OK. But to go through this to be skinny is mental illness, truly. And I say that with the most respect to anyone going through it.”
Meanwhile, Patricia Heaton shared that she had cosmetic surgery after giving birth, which made her feel “more confident.” (The Middle actress shares sons Samuel, John, Joseph and Daniel with husband David Hunt.)
I had four C-sections. I gained 50 lbs. with every kid and I’m 5’2. Wasn’t pretty. It just does something to your body,” she told People in May 2018. “I was really in the prime of my career when that was all going on, so it just felt better and made me more confident to reconstruct my stomach, take care of all that stuff.”

After having four C-sections, Heaton got a stomach reconstruction and breast augmentation, which made her feel “more confident.”
Jessica Simpson
Simpson has admitted to getting multiple tummy tucks after giving birth because she “couldn’t bear” to look at herself. (Simpson shares Maxwell, Ace and Birdie with Eric Johnson, born in 2012, 2013, and 2019, respectively.)
“The surgery wasn’t for weight loss,” she explained in her 2020 memoir Open Book. “I weighed 107 pounds when I planned the surgery. I wanted to get rid of the stretch marks and loose skin left sagging from my back-to-back pregnancies.”
Loren Brovarnik
The 90 Day Fiancé star got a full “mommy makeover” after giving birth to her three kids with Alexei Brovarnik: Shia, Asher and Ariel, born in 2020, 2021, and 2022.
“I’m doing it naturally,” Loren shared in a 2024 episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After. “I’m getting sucked and tucked and tightened and toned, so I’m having a natural mommy makeover, which is basically a tummy tuck. I’m doing a 360 lipo from my chin, my arms, my upper back, my lower back [and] my thighs. And then I’m going to do a fat transfer with that lipo to my boobs.”
Loren went on to share that the procedure is “necessary” for her because she has “abdominal diastasis.” (According to the Cleveland Clinic, abdominal diastasis occurs when the ab muscles separate during pregnancy as a result of being stretched.)
“No matter how hard I work out, it will never go back because I had three C-sections in two and a half years,” she explained. “My abdomen muscles have separated and they won’t go back. It’s physically uncomfortable. I love my children, but my body just didn’t get a break. It was a really busy three years.”
Drew Sidora
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star explained that she got a “mommy makeover” after dealing with some health issues.
“I did everything. I did a whole mommy makeover. It was like the [whole] package,” Sidora told Us Weekly in April 2022. “Like, boobs back in place — you know, make them a little smaller cause I was having neck issues — and then I had a hernia and so they did a hernia repair and a tummy tuck. That was it. I was good. I’m happy.”
Amber Portwood
After giving birth to daughter Leah with ex Gary Shirley in 2008, Portwood shared that she underwent a “mommy makeover” in 2016. (She later welcomed son James with Andrew Glennon in 2018.)
The Teen Mom star noted in an episode of the show in November 2016 that she wanted to “just simply shape [her] body back to where it was and feel better about [herself].”
Shanna Moakler
Moakler previously shared that she got a “mommy makeover” because she wanted to have her “tummy muscles fixed from pregnancies.” The actress, who shares daughter Atiana with Oscar De La Hoya and son Landon and daughter Alabama with Travis Barker, gave candid updates on social media during her recovery in December 2018.
“Alright guys I am 5 weeks post op!” she wrote alongside a selfie of her via Instagram. “I am starting to see a difference, still really swollen and some discoloration from bruising but all the lumps and weird pockets but my scar are gone and that makes me happy, as that was what really bothered me, even though I hid it well.”
Meghan Trainor
In March 2025, the singer shared that she underwent a breast augmentation after welcoming sons Riley and Barry with husband Daryl Sabara in 2021 and 2023, respectively.
“As you know, I’m in a super busy chapter of my life. I’ve been touring, working and mommying really hard. So recently, I decided to do something just for me,” Trainor shared in an Instagram video. “After having kids, living a healthier lifestyle and losing weight, I couldn’t be happier with my decision. I’m so obsessed. I’ve always struggled with loving my boobs before I got them done because they were never even, were always sagging my whole life.”

Wendy Osefo
The Real Housewives of Potomac star has previously opened up about her decision to get breast implants and a Brazilian butt lift following giving birth to her three kids. (Osefo shares Karter, Kruz and Kamrynn with husband Eddie Osefo.)
“You don’t realize what motherhood does to your body, both emotionally and physically, so after I had my first child, I thought, ‘Once I’m done having children, I definitely want to get back to myself,” the Bravo personality explained to Real Self in a February 2024 interview. “I nursed all my children for 15 months, and it really took a toll on my body. I was a shell of myself, and I just wanted to take ownership of my body again.”
Wendy noted that when she looked at herself in the mirror, she “saw the breasts for Karter, Kruz and Kamrynn.”
“My body was no longer a sexual vessel, if that makes sense,” she explained to the outlet. “I just wanted to get back to my normal self.”
