How Pregnancy Changes Your Body
The excitement and joy of creating a family has no comparison. Your baby’s first kick and seeing their smiling face for the first time is an incredible experience. The process however, can leave some lasting effects on your body. Some mothers can re-gain their pre-pregnancy shape with ease, however, for others, genetics, weight gain, breast feeding, the number of pregnancies, and the busyness of your new children can create challenges to restoring how you would like to look and feel. Despite the best efforts to exercise and maintain a healthy lifestyle, there are some elements that can be resistant to return to a state that you are happy with. The most common areas that are affected are the breasts and abdomen, and when procedures are combined to address these areas, this is referred to as a, “Mommy Makeover.”
What Is A Mommy Makeover?
During pregnancy, the abdomen stretches to accommodate the growing baby, and after delivery, there can be challenges for the skin and body to re-tighten. As well, following breastfeeding the breasts can become deflated and lose their fullness and projection. A popular surgery to help restore the breast appearance is Breast Augmentation, which can rejuvenate the breast to re-create your ideal breast size and shape. Depending on your breast aesthetic goals, this may involve a Breast Lift to tighten the surrounding tissue and reshape and support the breast contour improving the position and shape of the breasts. To address changes with the abdomen, this may involve a combination of a Tummy Tuck, Liposuction, and/or Abdominal Contouring.
