Love your baby but not your post-baby body?

Whether your baby is 30 days old, 30 years old or somewhere in between, stretch marks and a lumpy, saggy figure are often the unwanted results of pregnancy and nursing. Regardless of your current age, if you miss your pre-baby body, our Atlanta plastic surgery practice has a solution for you: a Mommy Makeover.

What’s a Mommy Makeover?

A cure for the post-baby body, that’s what! Imagine your breasts back to their original perky position, nice and full; your tummy flat and firm again and most—if not all—of your stretch marks gone, vanished, finished. A Mommy Makeover is a breast enhancement plus a tummy tuck with some liposuction. The breast enhancement varies, depending on your specific needs. Some women find that a breast augmentation is just the thing to rejuvenate breasts that have lost their volume. If your breasts look deflated and you have sagging and drooping, a breast lift with an augmentation is a combination procedure that will eliminate both of those problems. Happy with your bust size and just want to eliminate the droop? A short scar breast lift can do that!

Many women discover after pregnancy and nursing that their breasts are much bigger than their pre-pregnancy size, leading to back, neck and shoulder pain as well as constant discomfort from bra straps that dig into their shoulders. Some even experience a constant rash beneath their overly large breasts. If this describes you, a breast reduction can eliminate all of the above and improve the shape of your breasts, as well.

A tummy tuck is the other component in a Mommy Makeover procedure. My Atlanta tummy tuck patients are delighted with their results: a nice, flat abdomen and the elimination of loose skin, extra fatty tissue, and stretch marks. Through the judicious use of liposuction, your abdomen, hips, and waist will look great in a pair of tight-fitting jeans or evening wear!

Although not part of the “standard” Mommy Makeover, if you’d like a perkier bum to fill out your shorts, swimsuits and slacks, a buttock lift can firm and lift your derriere.  You don’t have to be JLo to have a great rear!

Alternatives to a Mommy Makeover

If you’re basically in good shape and just want to trim chunky thighs, reduce back fat or eliminate the dreaded muffin top, liposuction can be an alternative to a Mommy Makeover, assuming you have good skin elasticity.

Obviously, an effective diet and exercise program will go a long way toward giving you a fit and trim figure. However, even the most vigorous exercise won’t erase your stretch marks, lift your breasts back to their previously-perky position, or eliminate stubborn pockets of exercise-resistant fat.
