The Mommy Makeover

The Mommy Makeover

Dr. Peter Bray
The Mommy Makeover is currently one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures, it is exclusively designed for women who have experienced pregnancy and breastfeeding. It is new, revolutionary and has been covered extensively in the media, and glowingly reviewed by Hollywood celebrities.
A “Mom Makeover” is a combination of Body Sculpting procedures, performed together to improve your physical appearance after pregnancy. There is no set combination of procedures, instead the Plastic Surgeon will carefully tailor a plan to satisfy each patients individual needs. Two main areas of focus are the breasts and stomach, after which other procedures are usually added.
The Components of a Mommy Makeover
Because the breasts and mid- section are most effected by pregnancy, these areas are the main focus of a Mommy Makeover. Between pregnancy and breast feeding the breast will usually grow a full size. Returning back to their normal size will cause a loss of volume and sagging. Stomach muscles, skin and tissue stretch during pregnancy to accommodate the growing infant, predictably after labor they may not return to their usual shape.
Your Mommy Makeover may include:
  1. Breast Augmentation
2. Breast Lift
3. Breast Reduction
4. Tummy Tuck
5. Abdominoplasty
6. Liposuction
Breast Implants can replace loss of volume and a Breast Lift can help reshape the breasts. Breast Implants are safer than at any other time in history, with numerous techniques now available to lessen the chance of infection and capsular problems. For those with a very large volume increase in the breasts, a breast reduction can create a smaller more shapely appearance.
To improve the figure, procedures include Abdominoplasty (otherwise called a Tummy Tuck), Circumferential Abdominoplasty and Liposuction. A Mommy Makeover can incorporate a Thigh Lift, Arm Lift or Brazilian Butt Lift. Depending on the Surgeon and your general health, all of the procedures recommended during your Mommy Makeover can be performed at the same time, or for health and safety reasons they might be spread out over a few careful sessions.
10 Things you need to know about a Mommy Makeover
  1. The Mommy Makeover will be performed as an outpatient medical procedure, this will enable you to recuperate at home. For the first 24 hours, your specialist may recommend a short-term recuperation suite.
2. Your recuperation can take anywhere from 1–14 days. This will depend on the particular techniques used during your Mommy Makeover. Plan on your recuperation taking as long as 14 days, during which time you will be sore and swollen.
3. You will require help around the house. You will be worn out and feel fragile for a few days after your Mommy Makeover and simple tasks will be impossible; enlist help from a relative or friend.
4. No driving until the pain drugs have been stopped. Your specialist will recommend the correct pain prescriptions for your recuperation, don’t get in the driver’s seat while taking opiates.
5. Swelling can remain for 6 months or more. While a few advantages of your Mommy Makeover can be seen right away, the complete results won’t be apparent until all the swelling has died down; this will take from between 6–12 months.
6. Don’t do any heavy lifting including children. Vigorous exercise and hard work should be eliminated for no less than a month and a half after your Mommy Makeover; this includes carrying infants and children more than 10 lbs.
7. A Mommy Makeover is for non-smokers. Smoking negatively effects blood flow, slows healing and increases the risks of complications; Stop smoking for a month before and after a Mommy Makeover. Even better, stop smoking all together.
8. Afterwards you will need to stay healthy. To guarantee the results from your Mommy Makeover are long lasting, maintain a healthy lifestyle, including a healthy eating routine and exercise plan.
9. Always pick a board certified Plastic Surgeon. The Mommy Makeover is a combination of procedures and this makes it a more involved technique. Always pick the best and most experienced Plastic Surgeon; Never risk your health and safety to save money.
10. Prepare for a huge boost in self esteem. Your Mommy Makeover results will be fantastic and renew your self confidence and pride in your appearance.
Your Customized Mommy Makeover
The Mommy Makeover is perfect for bringing a post-children body back to its pre-pregnancy shape. The best way to find out about a Mommy Makeover is to do your research. There is some good information on the Internet, but the best way is to speak directly with a qualified Plastic Surgeon. When you are ready, locate a well reviewed and respected Plastic Surgeon in your area and set up a consultation. Your specialist will help you develop a strategy to safely bring your body back to its pre-children shape.
