Complete Body Rejuvenation with a Mommy Makeover

Even though having a child is going to change your life forever, many women struggle with post-pregnancy cosmetic issues such as stretch marks, loose skin, sagging breasts and extra abdominal fat. While a healthy diet and exercise will help with some of those problems, the progress can be quite slow. A mommy makeover will allow you to completely rebuild your pre-baby body from the ground up. Within just a few weeks of your procedures, you could look and feel years younger.

A Closer Look at the Mommy Makeover

A mommy makeover is a term commonly used to describe a series of cosmetic procedures that can be carried out after having one or more children. Instead of undergoing a single procedure, you can have multiple treatments carried out at the same time to address a variety of cosmetic problems.

In general, a mommy makeover will include surgeries such as a breast lift, tummy tuck and liposuction. Other women may choose to undergo breast augmentation to add volume that may have been lost during pregnancy. During your initial consultation with our plastic surgeon, you will learn more about all these treatment options.

Your Body Following a Pregnancy

Almost anything that alters your hormones can have an impact on your appearance. Weight and hormonal fluctuations can result in a variety of cosmetic issues, including sagging skin throughout the abdominal area. It will also have a major impact on the size and position of your breasts. Those are a few of the reasons why so many women opt for breast implants and breast lifts after having children.
Some of these issues can be taken care of with lifestyle changes, but progress is often extremely slow. Even if you are able to lose quite a bit of weight and strengthen some of your major muscle groups, taking care of loose and sagging skin without professional help is nearly impossible. After working so hard to lose the extra weight, you might find yourself struggling with extra folds of skin in areas such as your arms, stomach, waist, and buttocks.

The Ideal Mommy Makeover Candidate

A mommy makeover can be carried out at almost any age, but most women will need to postpone these treatments until they are done having children. After having a cosmetic procedure carried out, any major changes to your hormones or the shape of your body will have an impact on the final results. If you keep up with your healthy lifestyle after your procedure is completed, you can enjoy your results for years to come.
