Mommy Makeover Transforms Body
If you’ve spent any time in stroller circles you’re likely familiar with the term “Mommy Makeover.” What mom doesn’t dream of getting her pre-pregnancy body back after spending nine months with stretched skin and excess weight?
Here’s the secret about mommy makeovers – they aren’t just for moms. Mommy makeover is a marketing term, not a surgical one. The term is simply used to describe the combination of plastic surgery procedures into one surgical procedure.
Everyone can enjoy the benefits of combining surgeries. Coupling procedures makes recovery easier since recovery time from multiple procedures is not much longer than a single surgery. Body transformations are customized based on a woman’s exact desires and may combine any number of the following procedures.
Tummy Tuck
Tightens and removes excess skin to achieve a taut stomach.
Liposuction
Removes cellulite and provides a sculpted appearance.
Breast Augmentation
Several breast implant options are available, including silicone, saline and gummy bear implants, to restore lost volume and achieve proportion.
Breast Lift
Create a youthful, uplifted breast profile by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue.
Scar Revision
Minimize the appearance of scars.
Whether you’re punctuating a significant weight loss or wanting to rejuvenate your physique, choosing the best procedure is only part of the process. Choosing the right surgeon should involve research and personal interviews. Select a surgeon who shares your goals for a realistic appearance and function.
