ballerina Bruna Gonsalves is one recent example of this discussion. Six months after the birth of her daughter Zuri from her marriage to singer Lyudmila, she revealed that she had stopped breastfeeding and had abdominal liposuction. “I wasn’t producing enough breast milk so I felt it was time to start taking care of myself again,” he said on social media.

The report resonated because it honestly addressed a topic that has long been treated with guilt: women’s desire to reconnect with their bodies after becoming mothers.

For plastic surgeon Tammy Motoki, a full member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgeons and an expert in body contouring, decisions of this kind reflect a change in social perception. “For a long time, the desire to feel good after becoming a mother was interpreted as vanity. Today we know that it is part of physical and mental well-being,” he explains.

A few months after giving birth to her youngest child, the former BBB underwent an abdominoplasty with diastasis and liposuction. “Despite my training and diet, I ended up with excess skin and a hernia. It was a deliberate choice, not just an aesthetic one,” he said.

This topic is also popular among young mothers, including: Duda Reis. She recently revealed that she underwent three surgical procedures (mastopexy, liposuction, and excess skin removal) to improve her body changes during her pregnancy with daughter Aurora.

Cases like Vii, Bruna, and Duda illustrate how some women have resorted to surgery and body treatments as part of the process of regaining self-care and confidence. According to Dr. Tammy, these interventions consist of an individualized approach that takes into account each patient’s characteristics and changes, rather than following a fixed pattern.

“Pregnancy changes a woman’s body structure and hormonal structure. The aim is to restore balance and firmness, but always respect the body’s time,” he advises. Doctors stress that it is ideal to wait at least six months after breastfeeding ends before performing the procedure to ensure safety and predictable results.

With increased interest in postpartum treatment, conversations about real motherhood are expanding on social media. Influencers displaying stretch marks, scars, and sagging skin have helped reduce the stigma surrounding motherhood. “Not every woman wants or needs to have surgery. The important thing is that each woman has the freedom to decide what’s best for her without feeling guilty,” says Tammy.
