Four Most Common Mommy Makeover Procedures

Are you a new mom struggling to get your pre-pregnancy body back? Or perhaps you’re a not-so-new mom who has been trying to regain your confidence after having a baby. Regardless of your situation, a Mommy Makeover might be the solution you’ve been looking for. A Mommy Makeover is a series of body contouring procedures aiming to reverse the effects of pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding.

1. Breast Augmentation

Pregnancy tends to take its biggest toll on the breasts, which is why breast augmentation is the number one mommy makeover procedure. One of the reasons for its popularity is that it’s an incredibly personalized treatment with several surgical options.

Breast augmentation is usually done with saline or silicone implants. Your doctor will discuss with you the best implant type and size for your needs. They will also discuss what surgery will look like and go over recovery and expectations.

2. Breast Lift

It’s common to experience sagging, hanging, or downward-pointing after giving birth and breastfeeding. A surgeon restores the youthful perkiness of your breasts by making small incisions around the breasts and lifting them back into a firm position. The doctor will then remove the nipples and place them in the best position so you can get your pre-pregnancy body back.

3. Tummy Tuck

Tummy tucks, or abdominoplasty, tightens and contours the stomach. The objective is to remove unwanted fat pockets, cut away excess skin tissues, and tighten the muscles underneath.

Every woman’s goals post-pregnancy are different. Discuss with your plastic surgeon what you want from a tummy tuck to decide between a mini or a full tummy tuck.

4. Liposuction

When you’re pregnant, fat tissue is redistributed throughout the body, which tends to go to all the places we don’t want it. A doctor can target arms, neck, back, stomach, thighs, hips, butt, and flanks and suction out the fat pockets that are bothering you the most.
