mummy makeover

Childbirth is a major ordeal, and so is nursing – and they both leave their mark on Mummy’s body. Mummy Makeover is a very popular option for mothers wishing to get back their pre-pregnancy good looks.
Motherhood is perhaps one of the most important transformational experiences in a woman’s life. For all of the challenges and difficulties that raising a child entails, nothing can compare to holding that beautiful baby in your arms and feeling its pure innocence, warmth, and wide-eyed wonderment.
The fact is, childbirth is a major ordeal, and so is nursing – and they both leave their mark on Mummy’s body. After baby is born, abdominal muscles are stretched, weight is often difficult to lose, and breasts may droop or sag. Women are repelled when they see their stretch marks, flabby stomachs and sagging breasts. It is best to wait until you have finished breastfeeding and reached a stable weight before undergoing any plastic surgery procedures. Nowadays, women have become empowered; thanks to the tools of modern medicine, and the Mummy Makeover has fast become a very popular option for mothers wishing to get back their pre-pregnancy good looks.
Various options available are:

  • Liposuction - reshapes and re-contours the body by eliminating fat deposits around the waist, hips and thighs that were gained during pregnancy. A cannula is inserted through a tiny incision made near the area where the fat is being removed. The cannula pushes through the fat layer, breaking up the fat and making it easier to suction it out.
  • Tummy Tuck – removes excess abdominal skin and fat; tightens the tummy area. There is usually hanging abdominal skin, which is caused by the severe stretching of the stomach muscles in childbirth. Only a tummy tuck actually corrects the problem by tightening the lax abdominal muscles. Stretch marks on the abdomen are also gone /reduced. It is usually combined with liposuction of the waist region to achieve a perfect shape.
  • Breast Augmentation – corrects breast volume reduction, which is common after pregnancy. Many mummies are surprised by the “shrinkage” that they see in their breasts (especially in the upper part/pole of the breasts). Breast Augmentation (breast implants) can restore a woman’s full breasts.
  • Breast Lift – corrects sagging and/or asymmetrical breasts. Unfortunately, with the stresses of childbirth and nursing, the breasts can become a bit saggy. However, the good news is a breast lift can make breasts look “brand new” again.
  • Breast Reduction – Breasts may become significantly enlarged because of hormonal changes during pregnancy, and if the breasts are too large, they may become uncomfortable – even painful. Breast reduction brings you back to a more normal size, making you feel younger and less “weighed down.”
  • Laser Skin Treatments – Stretch marks are one obvious manifestation. Skin hyper-pigmentation, blotchiness, and acne breakouts are also seen (probably due to hormonal changes), as are vascular lesions such as "spider veins". Laser treatments are available for all of these conditions.

So make the most of motherhood, but look like you did before your baby was born – with a Mummy Makeover
