The mommy makeover or in its Greek version The Metamorphosis of MOM is essentially a program of plastic surgeries that are carried out to reshape the female body after the period of pregnancy and breastfeeding. Undoubtedly becoming a woman mother seals the completion of her personality, but the changes that inevitably take place in her body are great.
Is the mommy makeover the only solution?
After pregnancy, women want to restore their body as quickly as possible to normal levels, so they indulge in intensive fitness programs and strict diets. Despite these excess pounds remaining, the local fat settles in the thighs and circumference and the appearance of the relaxed, with belly stretch marks is disappointing. Their psychology is severely damaged, they feel undesirable and their disposition is permanently poor. With the mommy makeover all this will be a thing of the past. With targeted interventions that will take place at the same time during an operation or individual in different surgeries, your body will be fully reformed and the new image you will be presenting will stimulate your self-esteem.
Mommy Makeover: What are the ideal candidates?
As ideal candidates, women are considered as:
They have a downward chest
They show relaxation in the abdomen
They have a buildup of local fat
Distinguished by good general and mental health
No fluctuations in their weight
Do not have expectations that do not correspond to reality
Do not belong to the category of smokers
They do not want another gestation
Mommy Makeover: What surgeries does it involve?
The usual practice is to perform the following procedures:
Abdominoplasty
Liposuction
Breast lift
It is not absolute however that a lady who decides to proceed to a mommy makeover will have to carry out all three. The interventions are selected in the light of the imperfections that need to be corrected after a thorough discussion with the plastic surgeon. So some lady may only need liposuction and abdominoplasty unlike someone else who may need breast lift and abdominoplasty. Static surveys that have been carried out give us valuable information about both the incidence of disease and what combination is most often preferred.
The largest percentage of women who proceeds to mommy makeover performs breast lift and abdominoplasty.
Mommy Makeover: Analysis of interventions
Breast lift
Breastfeeding Although it is the most literal process that binds the mother with the child, brings disappointing changes to the chest. It loses its shape and volume and shows a drop. Women feel bad about the appearance of their breasts and mostly uncomfortable during sexual activity. With the lift the chest is placed higher in the chest and its shape is reformed. If necessary, it is combined with an augmentation and an implant is placed in order to obtain the lost volume. Breast lift is a safe operation in which complications are almost nonexistent.
Abdominoplasty
The abdomen after childbirth relaxes and usually shows streaks (stretch marks). With Abdominoplasty the excess skin is removed and the stretch marks on the lower part of the abdomen disappear. The operation is characterized by maximum safety and lasts for approximately 2 hours. Abdominoplasty restores this repulsive image and you are able to wear your favorite bikini without feeling disadvantaged.
Liposuction
The fat after the pregnancy period usually accumulates in the thighs and buttocks. The P.A.L. (laser) Liposuction is an innovative method of liposuction with which you will be permanently rid of excess fat. The results are permanent in nature and you do not have to worry about scars since they do not exceed 3 millimeters in size and can be easily perceived.
Is dicey to proceed to simultaneous surgeries (Mommy makeover)?
There is no cause for concern. All the interventions included in the Mommy Makeover are absolutely safe as long as the appropriate plastic surgeon will have the necessary experience and specialization.
A possible pregnancy after the makeover will affect the result?
It is logical that a possible pregnancy will affect the appearance of the breast and the abdomen again. It would be good if you are planning to be pregnant again, or to wait to complete the pregnancy or to report it to your doctor so that it leaves the abdominal muscles intact during the abdominoplasty so that no problem can be created. As far as breast lift is concerned, it does not affect a possibility of breastfeeding because both the lobe where breast milk is concentrated and the dairy resources that carry it remain unaffected.
Mommy Makeover: Postoperative course
The postoperative course depends on the procedures you will perform. In case you move on to all three you have to stay one night at the hospital for preventive reasons. Postoperative pain is easily done with mild analgesics and you will need about a week to ten days until you are able to return to your work.
Mommy Makeover: Final results
The final results of the Mommy Makeover will impress you. Your body will not exhibit any defects and will be characterized by symmetry. Your mood will be renewed, you will have the comfort of wearing any garment you wish without any restrictions, and above all you will feel desirable again.
