Do you find you’re unsatisfied with the way your body looks after having a baby? Many new mothers find they have trouble getting their body back to the way it was before having a baby. At Cincinnati Plastic Surgery, we want to help you look and feel your best. One of the more common procedures we do at the practice is the mommy makeover. Each mom is different, but each mommy makeover typically includes breast augmentation, tummy tucks, and liposuction. Read on to learn the mommy makeover benefits.
Why a Makeover?
During and after pregnancy, your body goes through many changes. Sometimes, you need help in getting your body back to the way it was before children. That’s where a mommy makeover procedure comes into play. Your body undergoes many changes. Help restore your pre-baby body with a mommy makeover. At your surgical consultation, Dr. Martin will walk you through the different procedure options and will discuss what works best for you. Restore your pre-baby body with the help of Dr. Martin.
When Should I Get a Mommy Makeover
Again, no one has the same body. However, there are some commonalities between people. The American Society of Plastic Surgery, of which Dr. Martin is a member, recommends getting a mommy makeover after you’ve achieved your goal weight after childbirth. Additionally, it’s recommended that you are done with having children. That way, the results of the surgery last for as long as possible. Then, you’ll need to make sure you’re in good health for the surgery. It is not recommended that you have surgery when you aren’t feeling well, as that can complicate things after the surgery.
Breast Augmentation
One of the most common procedures in a mommy makeover is breast augmentation. Breast augmentation is also one of the most common plastic surgery procedures in America. As part of the mommy makeover, Dr. Martin will implant silicone or saline implants. The type of implant will be chosen during your surgical consultation.
A breast lift will also likely be performed during the surgery. Breast lifts can be performed during breast augmentation or can be performed during a different surgery. The purpose of this procedure is to return breasts to the perkiness level they once were at.
Tummy Tucks
A tummy tuck is another common procedure in the mommy makeover. With a tummy tuck, you’ll get the perfect stomach you’ve always wanted. With a tummy tuck, extra skin and fat, and stretch marks are removed. The result is a flat, tight abdomen. At Cincinnati Plastic Surgery, we offer two different types of tummy tucks in office. At your surgical consultation, we’ll discuss which one works best for you and what your wants are.
Liposuction
Liposuction may also be done as part of your mommy makeover. Depending on your situation, you may just need liposuction or will need a tummy tuck and liposuction. Liposuction helps remove stubborn fat pockets to create better body proportions. Unlike tummy tucks, which can only be done on the stomach, liposuction can be performed on many different areas on the body.
Each person is different. That means no two mommy makeover procedures will be the same. At Cincinnati Plastic Surgery, Dr. Martin will listen to your wants and needs and will provide feedback as to what will work for your body while still giving you mommy makeover benefits.
