The Mommy Makeover Combo

Mommy Makeover

During pregnancy, the body undergoes many dramatic changes, some of which are not very flattering. Unfortunately, the changes that naturally occur during pregnancy can sometimes take quite a toll on a woman’s appearance and self-image.

This does not mean you have to sacrifice your looks forever just because you’ve had a baby. With a few simple procedures, you can look better than before.

Of course, a woman’s midsection grows considerably during her pregnancy. Although the abdomen begins to return to some degree of normalcy immediately after giving birth, there are often significant and permanent effects of this weight gain. Even after you’ve lost that baby weight, the skin can appear looser, making you look heavier than you really are.

The Mommy Makeover Procedure

To help fix this problem, there’s a procedure called abdominoplasty - more commonly referred to as the “tummy tuck” - that can help you restore your abdomen. With abdominoplasty, you can look and feel better than you have in years!

In addition, many women also choose to get a breast lift after having a baby. This may involve relocating the nipple to a higher part of the breast. If you’ve ever considered having breast implants, this may be the best time to do it.

The size of a patient’s breast implants is always dependent on - and often limited by - the amount of skin on the patient’s breasts. Because of the excess skin that is typically caused by breast growth during pregnancy, women who have just had a baby may have more options for breast augmentation than usual.

It’s important to note that breast and abdomen are not the only parts of your body that may change during pregnancy. In fact, most women store fat all over their bodies while they are pregnant. Ultrasonic liposuction also referred to as ultrasonic liposculpture, is a procedure that can treat this additional weight gain, and it can be done on parts of the body that cannot be treated with manual liposuction.

The Complete Mommy Makeover

Breast Lift, Liposculpture & Tummy Tuck

Oh, the joys of motherhood. These joys, however, often come along with dramatic changes to your body. There’s a reason that Hollywood stars are always highlighted in “body after baby” photos: getting back into shape after pregnancy is hard work! If you’re chasing your children around and making family dinners instead of seeing a personal trainer and having specialized diet foods delivered to your door, post-pregnancy cosmetic surgery may just be the solution for you.

There are a number of procedures that can get your body back to or in better shape than it was before your pregnancy, and at the offices of Brett E. Stompro, MD & Chester K. Cheng, MD, we offer the Complete Mommy Makeover to help.

You will likely find that the most prominent change after your pregnancy is in your midsection. Naturally, the skin in that area has stretched to accommodate your growing baby and it might seem like all the crunches in the world won’t get your stomach back to its pre-pregnancy shape. One way to fix problems with loose abdominal skin is with a procedure called abdominoplasty, also known as a tummy tuck. This safe and common procedure is a great way to start towards your optimal “body after baby.”

Moving onwards and upwards, many women also chose to get postpartum breast lifts due to increased size during pregnancy. If you’ve ever considered a breast augmentation in the past, now is actually the optimal time to do it. With increased size comes an increased amount of skin, which gives surgeons more options to offer you than usual.

Refining those specific areas can make a big difference, but you may also want to consider ultrasonic liposculpture to address additional weight gain in other areas of your body. Ultrasonic liposculpture is an improved method that can be used in places that manual liposuction cannot treat.

By making an effort to boost your self-image you make a happier you, which makes for a happier family!
