What is a Mommy Makeover, and who can benefit? The term Mommy Makeover has been given to a variety of paired cosmetic procedures designed to enhance the areas most effected by pregnancy: the breasts and the belly. The archetype for the Mommy Makeover is the combination of Breast Augmentation and Tummy Tuck. Other procedures can be substituted to enhance targeting your specific needs, but this is the most frequently used pairing. This combination of procedures can also be helpful after weight loss. More details are supplied below and are covered in today’s video segment.
Mommy Makeover – Belly Enhancement
A mommy’s abdominal wall, muscle and skin, is stretched maximally during the final trimester of pregnancy, and the result is often irreversible with diet and exercise alone. Once the tough fascial layer that surrounds the muscle is over-stretched, it does not spring back. Exercise is very important to maintain weight and to strengthen the muscle, but it cannot repair the loose fascial layer that supports the muscle deep within the abdominal wall. A Tummy Tuck, or Abdominoplasty, can tighten the fascia, repair the diastasis, remove the excess skin and remove any baby fat that remains on the lower belly. Mini Tummy Tucks (Mini Abdominoplasty) and Liposuction can also be part of a complete Mommy Makeover. For more about Belly Shaping procedures visit my Body Enhancement page.
Mommy Makeover – Breast Enhancement
Breast size changes with pregnancy, weight loss, weight gain and even as we naturally age. The Breast Enhancement portion of the Mommy Makeover is modified depending on the problem. Breast Augmentation is the most common procedure combined with tummy tightening in the Mommy makeover. Breast Implants are used to restore lost volume, and fill loose skin, and just about any size is available. Newer silicone filled and shaped Breast Implants give us safer and better options. If sagging is present, a Breast Lift can be used to reshape the breast. When breasts enlarge with pregnancy and do not deflate, Breast Reduction surgery may be a better answer, to restore a more comfortable breast volume.
