Mommy Makeovers: Surgery After Pregnancy
Sometimes, recommended diet and exercise are not enough for mothers to get their figures back. Mothers are no longer sacrificing their looks just because they’ve had children and are turning to plastic surgery to help get their pre-pregnancy body back. More and more women are asking plastic surgeons for a mommy makeover.
When women finish breastfeeding, they often end up not recognizing their own breasts. Many mothers complain about sagging, asymmetry, loss of fullness or enlarged areolas. Procedures such as the Laser Bra breast lift surgery help take care of these problems. The Laser Bra procedure uses extra skin to create an internal bra that lifts the breasts, resulting in long lasting fullness. Breast augmentation is sometimes necessary for patients who want a larger breast size.
Women also turn to cosmetic surgery to take care of their “postpartum pouch”. They may notice excess skin, excess fat, a distorted belly button and stretch marks on their abdomen area – which exercise alone cannot get rid of. Most mothers turn to the tummy tuck procedure to tighten the muscles and remove the excess skin and fat. On their journey to a better body, liposuction is another procedure mothers have performed to get rid of excess fat around the hips and flanks.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeon (ASPS), since 2000, there has been a jump of 76% more breast lifts performed and 115% more tummy tucks performed. Motherhood has certainly triggered the rise in the number of procedures performed.
