MOMMY MAKEOVER SURGERY is the umbrella term for combination surgery procedures that help address the changes a woman’s body goes through during and after pregnancy. It helps to re-sculpt the body and restore people’s confidence.
The most common mommy makeover surgeries include BREAST LIFT, BREAST AUGMENTATION, and TUMMY TUCK. Each procedure has its benefits and applications for people with varying levels of concerns and body types.
1. Remove Some Stretch Marks
Stretch marks are unsightly and often embarrassing. They are caused by skin tearing beneath the surface during pregnancy or sudden weight loss. They occur when the skin is stretched beyond its capacity and becomes discolored. The color of stretch marks can range from pale white to deep purple, depending on the severity of the stretch mark.
Stretch marks are not only unsightly, but they can also cause people to feel self-conscious about their appearance. The good news is that a mommy makeover procedure can help remove stretch marks on lax skin so patients can feel confident about their bodies again.
2. Fit Into Old Clothing
The body changes dramatically during pregnancy and childbirth, especially for people who experience it more than once. People often find that their favorite clothes no longer fit, and they have to shop for new ones. A mommy makeover can help to restore the body’s shape to your pre pregnancy body, allowing patients to fit into their old clothes.
3. Replenish Your Skin
The skin becomes stretched out during pregnancy and childbirth. This often results in loose skin and sagging skin. A mommy makeover can restore a person’s skin to its original firmness and smoothness by removing excess skin and fat during the tummy tuck procedure resulting in a tighter and more youthful appearance. This gives people the chance to feel confident about their bodies again.
4. Enhance Your Cleavage
Many people experience deflated or sagging breasts after pregnancy or breastfeeding. A breast lift and breast augmentation , however, can help to restore your breasts to their original shape and size. These common procedures are often included in a mommy makeover surgery. During the procedure, excess skin from the breasts is removed, and breast implants are inserted which allows patients to regain their breasts’ youthful, perky appearance.
5. Feel More Confident About Your Body
Mommy makeover procedures can also improve the overall appearance of the patient’s body. In this way, it can also help them feel better about their body in various situations again. Many women feel their bodies have lost definition and firmness after becoming pregnant. A mommy makeover surgery can help restore you achieve your pre baby body look and can improve self confidence in a patient’s body and how they feel wear clothing.
