01 Nov Are Mommy Makeovers Just for Moms?
More and more moms, new and seasoned, are electing to have a mommy makeover to transform their body into the tight and tone figure they had (or wish they had) pre-baby. Pregnancy can bring about many changes to the body including deflated breasts, loose skin in the abdominal region and, of course, stretch marks. However, these aren’t changes that are exclusive to just mothers. Aging and genetics alone can cause some of these unwelcoming changes. That’s why, regardless of what the name says, mommy makeovers from Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery are available to any woman looking to combine multiple procedures into one to restore or enhance her appearance.
Contouring Procedures Not Just for Mommies
A mommy makeover is a customized combination of procedures that are performed to address more than one body concern in a single surgery. There are many benefits to having a mommy makeover in that it not only saves you money, but it also saves you time by cutting down on your recovery time post-surgery.
Most moms who undergo a mommy makeover select procedures that focus on their breasts and stomach as they are the most affected during and after pregnancy. Breasts can lose volume following breastfeeding, and abdominal skin can become stretched and loose after giving birth. These same effects, however, are common amongst women who experience significant weight loss, including those without children. For those women, their combination of procedures would resemble a mommy makeover by including the following:
- Tummy Tuck: With extreme weight fluctuations, the abdominal skin is stretched and weakened beyond repair, leaving it loose and often hanging. A tummy tuck pulls the skin tight and removes any excess tissue to create a flat and toned midsection. Abdominal muscles that have been separated can also be repaired during a tummy tuck procedure.
- Liposuction: Sometimes, no matter how hard you work to lose weight, you’re still left with stubborn pockets of fat. Liposuction removes fat that won’t budge to give you smooth contours.
- Breast Augmentation: When losing weight, your breasts are usually the first thing to go. That can leave your bustline looking a bit deflated. Breast augmentation helps to restore volume by inserting implants. And often, a breast lift is combined with augmentation to remove excess breast tissue and to lift existing breasts.
