It comes as no surprise that mommy makeovers are on the rise. Every year they gain in popularity, with more and more women choosing to seek help in reaching their goals. It’s natural to feel uncomfortable in your skin after having children, especially if your body isn’t responding to diet and exercise. With the decision to have a mommy makeover comes many questions. Is this right for me? How soon after having a baby must I wait before I can have a mommy makeover? What is the recovery time? What can I expect afterwards?
Like any cosmetic procedure, there isn’t a one size fits all. That is why it is essential that you consult a specialist at Ciao Bella Cosmetic Surgery and Medical Spa. Tell us about your areas of concern. That being said, the areas that mommies are most frequently concerned with postpartum are the belly, the breasts and a few other “stubborn” areas that refuse to respond to diet and exercise.
A tummy tuck will help with any sagging, loose skin you may have, while tightening the abdominal walls. Liposuction may be recommended if you have any problem areas. The thighs and buttocks are the most frequent candidates. A breast augmentation can help with the loss in volume that occurs postpartum. There are times when a lift is recommended with your augmentation as well. It can help with the repositioning of the breasts. Before scheduling your mommy makeover, be sure you are at your target weight and are healthy. Plan ahead for help with your little ones, since you will not only feel uncomfortable for a time, you will also have restrictions on what you can lift.
Most importantly, make sure you have realistic expectations for yourself. Your body may not look exactly as it did prior to having children, but that isn’t the goal. The goal is to help you feel your best. A mommy makeover can help you feel comfortable in your body again, just make sure to address all of your questions and concerns with your physician.
