Having trouble deciding which cosmetic procedure might be the best choice for you after a pregnancy? If you’re already thinking about getting a tummy tuck, you might want to talk to your cosmetic surgeon about the benefits of a mommy makeover instead.
So what does a mommy makeover consist of? You can pick and choose virtually any cosmetic procedure to be a part of your mommy makeover, but these five are some of the most common.
1. Tummy Tuck
The tummy tuck, also called abdominoplasty, is one of the most common cosmetic treatments included in a mommy makeover. If you’re bothered by loose or excess skin or muscle tissue following a pregnancy, a tummy tuck may be the right cosmetic solution for you.
2. Liposuction
Liposuction is also often part of a mommy makeover because it addresses isolated pockets of stubborn fat that won’t respond to diet and exercise alone.
Liposuction won’t address loose skin, which is why it is typically combined with a tummy tuck.
3. CoolSculpting
This non-surgical body contouring treatment can be a great addition to your mommy makeover. Coolsculpting requires no downtime and the treatments can be performed in just a few hours, so you’re not away from your family for long.
4. Breast Lift
A breast lift can be a part of your tummy tuck to help address the appearance of sagging skin and breast tissue. Depending on your cosmetic goals, this procedure can be performed with or without an augmentation, or breast implants.
5. Breast Implants
If you’d like a little more volume, talk to your cosmetic surgeon about adding breast implants to your mommy makeover*. When breast sagging is also a concern, a combination breast lift and implants might be the best choice.
