Pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding are all part of a beautiful but challenging experience enjoyed by mothers. Unfortunately, women are often dismayed by the toll that pregnancy, giving birth, and nursing can have on their bodies and self-confidence. When a healthy diet and rigorous exercise routine cannot fully address these issues, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Josh Waltzman in Long Beach, CA, is happy to offer his patients a mommy makeover.
A mommy makeover is a perfect solution to reversing the changes that occur to a mothers’ physique during pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. With the right advice, guidance, and professional expertise, as a mother, you can restore your appearance to what it was pre-motherhood and get back that toned and sexy physique.
A mommy makeover is a specialized combination of body contouring procedures generally performed together in a single session. These can drastically reverse the physical effects of pregnancy, childbirth, and nursing on a woman’s body.
Because no two women are alike, Dr. Waltzman makes sure the procedure is custom-tailored and appropriate for each patient. Since the breasts and abdomen are affected the most by motherhood, a mommy makeover will often center on breast and abdomen contouring, with additional elements being be added as needed.
A combination of breast surgery procedures making up a mommy makeover is what many mothers choose to help reverse the effects of motherhood, and these are outlined below.
Breast Augmentation: Using breast implants or fat transfer, this procedure can restore breast volume lost after pregnancy, achieving fuller, more rounded breasts with improved symmetry.
Breast Lift: Also known as mastopexy, a breast lift raises the breasts by removing excess skin, tightening, and reshaping the surrounding tissue to support the breasts’ new contours.
Breast Reduction: Reduction mammaplasty is a breast reduction procedure to remove excess breast fat, glandular tissue, and skin, resulting in breasts sized to be more in proportion with the body.
Tummy Tuck: Abdominoplasty is tummy tuck surgery that removes excess fat and skin and, in some cases, restores muscles that have become weakened, stretched, or separated during pregnancy, creating a smoother and firmer abdominal profile.
Liposuction: Slims and reshapes targeted areas of the body by removing stubborn pockets of fat and improving body contours and proportions.
Mommy makeovers are becoming increasingly popular, and it’s easy to see why. You want to look and feel healthier, stronger, fitter, and more beautiful. It’s what you deserve, and that’s why you want to make yourself a priority.
As a fully customizable solution to the changes that took place during your pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, a mommy makeover will allow you to experience the joy of motherhood while looking your absolute best.
