Mommy Makeover Body Contouring
Mommy Makeover

Mommy Makeover body contouring at The Skin Center Medical Spa is designed to restore and reshape a women's figure after childbirth.  Just as every pregnancy differs from one mother-to-be to another, every Mommy Makeover is different as well.  Each Mommy Makeover is customized to address specific post-pregnancy problem areas. A Mommy Makeover can improve:

  • Loose skin on the abdomen and restore muscle tone to the abdominal wall
  • Sagging, deflated breasts and enhance the size of the breast
  • Contour and re-define the hips and thighs
  • The appearance of stretch marks

Mommy Makeovers often include one or more surgical procedures and non-invasive body contouring procedures to help restore a woman's body to a more youthful, natural shape -- giving Mom back the self-confidence she deserves in the way she looks and feels.

Mommy Makeover Cosmetic Plastic Surgery

Mommy Makeover cosmetic plastic surgery procedures are ideal for women wanting to restore confidence in their body and reclaim their pre-baby shape.  For many women, childbirth leaves lasting effects on the shape of the body resulting in loose, stretched skin around the abdomen, smaller, less shapely breasts and pockets of fat on the hips and thighs.

A Mommy Makeover may include one or more of the following cosmetic plastic surgery procedures to help restore the body to its pre-pregnancy shape:

 

Non-Invasive Mommy Makeover Treatments

For some mothers, cosmetic surgery may not be an option.  At The Skin Center Medical Spa, we offer non-invasive Mommy Makeover treatments that can help improve the appearance of some common pregnancy related conditions such as stretch marks, mild skin sagging, varicose veins and spider veins, and the accumulation of cellulite. 

Non-invasive treatments body contouring treatments include:

Mommy Makeover Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Post-Operative Care

Mommy Makeover cosmetic plastic surgery post-operative care will depend on the type of Mommy Makeover procedure selected.  The post-operative recovery will vary from breast enhancement procedures; liposuction surgery, SmartLipo laser liposuction and tummy tuck surgery.  No matter which type of cosmetic plastic surgery is performed during a Mommy Makeover, the surgical area will typically be swollen and sore with slight bruising for the first few days and possibly a week or longer.  Pain medication and bed rest are prescribed for five to seven days following body contouring procedures.  After which time, patients may feel well enough to resume work and light daily activities. 

Compression garments are usually prescribed for body contouring procedures and may need to be worn for two to three weeks following cosmetic plastic surgery to keep bruising and swelling to a minimum.  In addition, heaving lifting and exercise should be avoided for up to four weeks.

Most Mommy Makeover patients are thrilled to see the results of the Mommy Makeover surgery.  However, the healing process will continue for three to six months before the final result of the body contouring surgery is seen.

FAQ's: Mommy Makeover Body Sculpting

Can a woman get pregnant after having a Mommy Makeover Procedure?

Women considering Mommy Makeover surgery should be certain they are finished having children.  Although it is not ideal, it is fine to have children following Mommy Makeover surgery, however the results from the Mommy Makeover surgery may be altered after giving birth.  New stretching of the skin and abdominal muscle laxity may occur, the size of the breasts may change and new pockets of fat may appear.  If necessary, another Mommy Makeover surgery could be performed. 

How long do the results from a Mommy Makeover last?

The results from a Mommy Makeover are long lasting, given that a healthy weight is maintained and there are no additional pregnancies.  The results from the cosmetic plastic surgery procedures are permanent.  The final results from breast augmentation, tummy tuck procedure and liposuction surgery will be long lasting as long a healthy diet and exercise program is followed.
