Mommy makeover is the term that was made for a combination procedure that has been designed to assist a woman get her body and appearance back to her pre-pregnancy days. This treatment is interchangeable and it typically involves augmentations to both the midsection area and breasts, this series of procedures can also have other improvements to other areas of the woman’s body. There are many reasons to consider a mommy makeover in Elgin. Is there any reason not to get your body back to the way it used to be?

Flatten Your Midsection

Pregnancy can take a serious toll on a woman’s body, especially to the abdominal area due to the weight changes that occur during pregnancy which can loosen the skin to a seemingly irreversible level. Even when returned to your pre-pregnancy weight, there will be loose skin and stretched muscles that don’t appear to look like they used to.

An extremely effective way to get rid of this loose skin may be a tummy tuck. A tummy tuck can tighten your abdominal area and remove that loose skin to make you have a flatter belly. This is one of the most common parts of a mommy makeover. The tummy tuck procedure consists of an accurately placed incision that goes from one hip to the other in the bikini area as to not ruin any bathing suit wearing potential. If a healthy weight is kept after a tummy tuck procedure, then the benefits will last a long time.

Restore Your Breasts

After pregnancy, the breasts are a heavily impacted area due to breastfeeding and the pregnancy itself. Unfortunately, the breasts may appear to be saggy and deflated after pregnancy, which may leave you lacking self-confidence. Breast augmentation and breast lifts are the next most common thing that are included in a mommy makeover.

For sagging breasts, the best solution may be to get a breast lift; this has the potential to return them to their original quality. Not only does it lift them back to where they were, but it also can get rid of extra skin that may have developed during the pregnancy which ends up causing the breasts to be weighed down. This procedure includes incisions that are done near the areola, and across the breast when it is required. If scarring is your concern, then it may be important for you to know that a majority of the scarring happens on the crease of breast and around the areola.

If your breasts appear to be deflated or sagging, then implants that are specifically created to be the shape of your breasts can be implanted to help you return your breast to their original natural shape. Implants of this nature may end up lasting to ten years or even longer.
