Is Mommy Makeover Surgery Right for You?
Time can affect the body in many ways. For women, especially those who have experienced pregnancy and childbirth in the past, it’s incredibly common to experience patches of stretched, excess skin in areas all over the body. And try as we might, it is virtually impossible to improve the appearance of some of these areas with diet and exercise alone. While there are several body contouring surgeries available that can help women look and feel younger by addressing these concerns, I thought it would be helpful to discuss mommy makeover surgery and the unique benefits that this plastic surgery combination can provide.
For anyone unfamiliar, mommy makeover surgery combines multiple body contouring procedures into one surgery to help provide outstanding and long-lasting aesthetic results to areas all over the body. Depending on each patient’s unique needs, a mommy makeover may include the following:
- Liposuction to remove unwanted patches of stubborn fat from the abdomen, back, arms, thighs, or other areas.
- Tummy tuck surgery to remove loose skin and repair damaged or separated muscles in the abdomen that create the appearance of a belly “pooch”.
- A cosmetic breast surgery of the patient’s choice that may include breast augmentation, breast reduction, or a breast lift.
- Band Aid Liposuction and Band Aid Tummy Tuck for patients who don’t require quite as extensive cosmetic rejuvenation.
The individual surgeries that make up the mommy makeover are intended to complement each other, and help provide more comprehensive benefits together than they ever could separately. One of the things that my patients generally love so much about the mommy makeover is how customizable it is. I pride myself on being able to offer my patients a wide range of options to better suit their needs, and the mommy makeover allows women to precisely target specific areas for aesthetic improvement.
In addition to the cosmetic benefits of a mommy makeover, the emotional benefits cannot be forgotten either. I understand that no one wants to look old before their time and how frustrating it can be to not feel like yourself due to not being confident in how you look. A mommy makeover can help women turn back the clock and bring out their best, most youthful selves once more.
It’s important to note that you don’t have to be a mother to undergo a mommy makeover. When performed by an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon like myself, undergoing a mommy makeover can provide incredible aesthetic results for any woman trying to look and feel her best.
