Mothers are the true heroes of the world. There are many times as a mother, where you might not be thinking about yourself. Understand that being a mom, and sacrificing things for your children or partners, comes with the territory. While it can be tough to maintain a healthy image or weight, there are still many options available.
However, having children or being a mom in general, does not have to cost you your appearance. Losing weight, being pregnant, or breast feeding can take a toll on a woman’s body, leaving loose skin and fat around the tummy, sagging breasts, and stretch marks. The good news is that if you are a mom, you can finally do something for yourself, and get your body back, to make you feel your best self. Because as a mom, you deserve it.
After your consultation with your board-certified plastic surgeon, you decide that undergoing a mommy-makeover is best for you. The combination of changes in appearance in the breasts and abdomen lead many moms to seek a “mommy makeover.”
The best candidates for this procedure are women, who want their pre-pregnancy figures restored or improved. It may involve a tummy tuck, liposuction, and breast augmentation or breast lift. Some patients need only one of these procedures, while others may want or need a combination of procedures, in order to achieve the look, they desire. Each mommy-makeover procedure is tailored to each patient’s needs.
Your initial consultation is very important. It is vital to talk about your expectations, and what the best approach is for you. You should be comfortable and able to speak honestly and openly with your plastic surgeon about your desired outcome and goals.
There is no age limit to receive a mommy-makeover, and your plastic surgeon should be the one to advise you if you may be a candidate for the procedure. Plastic surgeons are much more concerned with the health status of the patient rather than age. For example, a healthy 60-year-old woman is a far better candidate than a 45-year-old woman with multiple health issues.
