Are you finished having kids? Do you want your pre-baby body back? Dr. Nease at Nease Cosmetic Surgery can help women in Scottsboro, Huntsville, and surrounding communities get their body back.
A mommy makeover is a cosmetic plastic surgery that is a combination of two or more procedures to improve the overall look of your body after childbirth. This procedure is specifically designed to target areas of your body that were misshapen during child carrying and birth.
Dr. Nease understands that it is hard to get your pre-baby body back with just working out and following a strict diet. That is why he offers the mommy makeover to aid you in getting your body back.
What Can be Included in a Mommy Makeover?
A mommy makeover can consist of several cosmetic plastic surgery combinations. It is best to consult with Dr. Nease to determine which combination of treatment is best for your desired body type. The following procedures can be included in a mommy makeover: breast augmentation or lift, tummy tuck, liposuction, thigh lift, and other body contouring procedures.
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck is one of the most commonly treated areas for mommy makeovers. When carrying a child, your abdomen skin and muscles were stretched and ruined. During a tummy tuck, Dr. Nease removes excess skin and fatty tissue and tightens the muscles in your abdomen.
This procedure is a body sculpting surgery that contours and shapes your abdomen. It was not designed to be a weight loss procedure and is only done after the patient has lost weight or is at a healthy, maintained weight. Many patients see a plethora of results after a tummy tuck, including a flatter stomach, better posture, decreased urinary incontinence, hernia relief, improved self-confidence, and tighter abdominal muscles.
Liposuction
Liposuction is another procedure that may be included in your mommy makeover. Liposuction is a useful procedure to aid in the reduction of fat that is resistant to diet and exercise. This happens in many women. If you have reached your goal weight or you are almost there, but there is a small section of fat that won’t budge no matter how healthy you eat or how strenuously you work out, then liposuction might be the answer. Liposuction can help the mommy makeover package by enhancing and improving the shape of your body, help you maintain a healthy weight, and reduce armpit sweat or thigh chafing.
Breast Augmentation/Breast Lift
A breast augmentation procedure is performed to improve the fullness of your breasts. This procedure is often performed on women who have breastfed children and have lost fullness to their breasts. This can also be common in women who have noticed significant signs of aging. This procedure involves placing silicone or saline breast implants beneath the chest muscles or breast tissue. This is usually an outpatient procedure.
A breast lift is similar to a breast augmentation but can be done with or without silicone implants. A breast lift is designed to raise the breasts, cut away excess skin, and tighten the surrounding skin and tissue. This is a popular procedure for women who like the size of their breasts, but need a boost to look youthful again.
How Much Does a Mommy Makeover Cost?
Mommy makeovers all vary in cost. Depending on how many procedures are performed to achieve your desired look, your investment in your new body will increase. The final cost and details can be discussed in a consultation with Dr. Nease. He will suggest the proper treatment for your body and the outcome that you are hoping for. Financing is also available for qualified patients.
How Long Does it Take to Recover from a Mommy Makeover?
Recovery from a mommy makeover varies on the patient and the procedure performed. In general, most patients recover partially within two weeks and reach full recovery in about six weeks. You can slowly return to your normal activities. You will be provided with post-operative care instructions. Closely following those instructions will aid in your recovery.
