Do You Need A Mommy Makeover?

Giving birth to a child is a gift that nothing can match. Unfortunately, with this gift also come many changes to a women’s body that are often hard to reverse with just diet and exercise. Today, new mothers are seeking more and more cosmetic surgery to help restore changes to their bodies after giving birth.

A mommy makeover is a combination of surgical procedures used to correct any of the many changes to a woman’s body after giving birth. Although most of the procedures often performed during a mommy makeover have been around for some time, it is the combination offered as a package that has coined the term. The areas that usually undergo the most change during pregnancy and childbirth are the tummy and breast. The mommy makeover procedure is most often a combination of breast augmentation usually with lift, tummy tuck and liposuction. However, since every woman is different, a mommy makeover is always tailored to each individual.

There are many factors to consider before undergoing a “mommy makeover,” such as your current health and lifestyle, the areas of your body you want to target, and how post-pregnancy plastic surgery will affect your family life. If you have successfully lost weight after your pregnancy but cannot reverse stubborn pockets of fat and sagging skin, you are probably a good candidate for cosmetic procedures. It is also important to remember that a mommy makeover isn’t just for recent moms—some women wait a few or several years before treating themselves. Women should be specific about their post-baby body goals so that their surgeon can recommend the most appropriate procedures. http://www.docshop.com/education/cosmetic/body/mommy-makeover

Women who have a Mommy Makeover often say their new and improved body not only enhances their looks, but also their attitude. "In the last decade we've seen women's attitudes about cosmetic surgery change. Today women are not afraid to admit that they love their children, but they wish their bodies looked the way they did before their first pregnancies. And they're not afraid to acknowledge that they may need a little help beyond a healthy diet and exercise," says ASPS President Phillip Haeck, MD. http://medicine.stonybrookmedicine.edu/surgery/blog/faqs-about-mommy-makeover-surgery-what-women-need-to-know
