As we get older, our bodies can exhibit some unwelcome signs of the aging process. These signs and symptoms of aging are frequently accelerated by pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. For women looking to revitalize their physical appearance, both looking and feeling younger, one popular option is the mommy makeover. Mommy makeovers are custom combinations of other procedures, performed at the same time to ensure personalized, holistic results.
What Is a Mommy Makeover?
The surgeries that are integrated into a mommy makeover all share the goal of reversing the signs of age. Because the effects of childbearing on the body are unique to each woman, your mommy makeover treatment plan will not be the exact same as another woman’s. Instead, your mommy makeover will be tailored to address your specific aesthetic needs and goals.
It is also important to note that mommy makeovers are not just for moms. On the contrary, any person who is interested in combining plastic surgeries to achieve comprehensive results may qualify for the mommy makeover treatment.
Which Procedures Can I Add to My Mommy Makeover?
There are a number of procedures you can include in your mommy makeover. Some common examples include:
- A breast lift to correct sagging breasts, whether caused by breastfeeding, sudden weight loss, or simply the aging process.
- Breast augmentation to restore volume, including volume lost to breastfeeding or sudden weight changes.
- Breast reduction, particularly if changes to breast size have led to awkwardness or discomfort.
- A tummy tuck to repair diastasis recti.
- Liposuction to remove stubborn fat deposits, including those formed during pregnancy.
- Body lifts to remove excess “stretched-out” skin caused by pregnancy or major weight loss.
- Labiaplasty to reshape the labia to a more youthful appearance.
During your initial consultation, you can discuss your specific objectives with your plastic surgeon and develop a mommy makeover plan that is right for you.
