WHAT IS A MOMMY MAKEOVER?

The term “mommy makeover” refers to the technique of cosmetic surgery aimed at rejuvenation of the abdomen and breast in women who have been through pregnancy. The focus of this technique is to solve common changes in the physique of the women occurring after the pregnancy. The breasts become deflated and sagging while the abdomen bulges out with extra skin and stretch marks.

THE NEED FOR MOMMY MAKEOVER

During motherhood, the main changes occur primarily in the abdomen and breast. Therefore, the procedure of mommy makeover focuses mainly on these two parts. The size of the breasts becomes enlarged due to pregnancy and then breastfeeding and this increase is so much that all these stretched muscles and skin may change. When the size returns to normal it means that a significant volume of the breast is lost and manifests in sagging. Similarly, during pregnancy, the tissues, muscles, and skin of the abdomen stretch to make room for the growing baby. However, after childbirth, all these stretched muscles and skin layers do not go back to their original shape. The mommy makeover focuses on these two areas to give them shape and a better appearance.

THE CONSTITUENTS OF MOMMY MAKEOVER

A series of surgical procedures are involved in the mommy makeover aiming to restore your pre-pregnancy shape and form of the body . Usually, the procedure consists of a tummy tuck, liposuction, and different breast surgery such as breast lift, breast augmentation, or breast reduction.

• Tummy Tuck Surgery

  To make space for the developing baby, the skin and muscles of the abdomen stretch during pregnancy. After childbirth, the skin of the abdomen becomes loose. In case you feel uncomfortable with the sagging skin of the abdomen, the extra skin can be removed with the help of a tummy tuck procedure that will also tighten the muscles of the abdomen.

• Breast Surgery

  In case of loss of mass from the breast, breast augmentation can be done in which artificial implants are inserted surgically to give a fuller appearance. Breast reduction surgery can be done when the size of the breast has become larger than the pre-pregnancy size becoming a reason for back pain and uncomfortable sensation. A breast lift can be done in case of a loose and sagging breast by removing excess skin from the breast and tightening the loose tissue to raise the breasts.

• Liposuction

  In this procedure, extra fat deposits are removed from the abdomen, thighs, hips, and buttocks to give a better contour to the body. This method is chosen when results are not obtained with diet and exercise.

Depending on the need and the recommendation of your doctor, a mommy makeover may include an arm, thigh, or Brazilian butt lift as well.
