What Procedures Are Included In A Mommy Makeover?

January 1, 2020

The female body undergoes many remarkable changes during pregnancy. Afterward, many women find themselves not recognizing their bodies the way they once did.

While some women are lucky enough to snap right back, you may find yourself dealing with a different reality. Many suffer from loose skin, stretch marks, deflated breasts and other alterations.

In the ever-evolving world of plastic surgery, moms have more options today than ever. The “mommy makeover” is growing in popularity. While it may seem like a specific procedure, there is no once size fits all.

WHAT DOES THE MOMMY MAKEOVER INCLUDE?

Your torso area is affected the most postpartum. With the breasts and the abdomen swelling much more than ever before, it can create some unwanted after-effects. It is no surprise that the mommy makeover package comes with many focuses on these areas.

Typically, procedures that can be included in the mommy makeover include:

Breast Lifts
This procedure is used to tighten loose skin and bring the nipple up higher on the breasts.
Breast Augmentations
You can fill out loose skin by opting for implants to equal the size or give you a larger breast size than pre-pregnancy.
Breast Reductions
If you find that your breasts are too heavy to large to deal with, you can have them reduced in size.
Tummy Tuck
This is a great procedure to tighten up the loose skin on your stomach that is leftover.
Liposuction
This procedure can remove the fat safely from trouble areas to give you a more even fat distribution.
Circumferential Abdominoplasty
This procedure removed fat and tightens up your waistline.

You can specifically tailor the mommy makeover to fit your needs. You can even add some procedures targeting other areas such as your buttocks, thighs or arms. It is completely dependent on what areas have been negatively impacted by your pregnancy.

AFTER CARE

Once you have completed your mommy makeover, you will need to take some precautions. While it is an outpatient procedure, you will still have to recover, which can take up to two weeks.

Do not do any lifting over ten pounds
Do not smoke
Do not drive if you are taking pain medication

Afterward, you will have a newfound sense of self-confidence to restore your appreciation for your body! You deserve to enjoy it. But first, you must be kind to your healing body. And don’t forget to continue to work out and eat healthy, as you will still have to stay in shape for best results.
