What is a Mommy Makeover? Frequent plastic surgery procedure in Montreal
A Mommy Makeover incorporates different plastic surgery procedures into a single operation and can help a woman restore her body to its pre-pregnancy state or even improve on it. Those nine months can take a toll on the body, leaving loose abdominal muscles, sagging breasts and unwanted bulges that don’t seem to go away even with diet and exercise. The Mommy Makeover can address all these concerns in one operation, allowing women to achieve their full results with just one time under anaesthesia and one recovery process.
Procedures Included in a Mommy Makeover
Your Mommy Makeover in my private clinic in Nuns Island will be customized to your unique concerns and aesthetic goals.
Procedures that are commonly performed during this surgery include:
Abdominoplasty
The tummy tuck procedure is designed to focus on the midsection, where much of the body’s pregnancy-related changes take place. The surgery can tighten up abdominal muscles that have become lax from the expanding uterus. By bringing the muscles back together, we can achieve a tighter, firmer abdomen and a narrower waistline.
Abdominoplasty also allows for removal of loose, sagging skin that affects the appearance of the stomach. Residual fat deposits can be removed to enhance the results further and the navel may be repositioned to create a natural result.
Liposuction
In some cases, a tummy tuck is not sufficient in creating the sculpted look you want to achieve from your Mommy Makeover. Whether stubborn bulges of fat linger around the middle or other areas of the body, liposuction can remove the fat to produce a smoother body profile. This procedure can be used with the tummy tuck to enhance the contour of the midsection, or in areas like the hips, flanks, thighs and even the upper arms to create a leaner look.
Breast Augmentation
Changes to the breasts can also occur during pregnancy and particularly the breastfeeding process afterward. Your once full, perky breasts may start to sag and droop and may even take on a deflated appearance. Breast augmentation uses implants as a way to restore and increase volume in the breasts.
Breast augmentation is a highly customizable process that allows you to carefully select the size, shape and placement of your implants to create a look that is distinctly individualized and proportionate to the rest of your curves. Our surgeons will walk you through the decision-making process to ensure your expectations are met and your cosmetic goals are achieved.
Breast Lift
While augmentation can add fullness to the breasts, it cannot do much to correct sagging that might have occurred. That is why a breast lift is a frequent addition to the Mommy Makeover to restore breasts to a more youthful, perky position on the chest. This procedure does not address size, but it does remove loose skin that is a culprit in the drooping effect.
What results will I expect?
Your Mommy Makeover can offer dramatic body contouring results, restoring your shape and your confidence in your appearance. With the ability to address multiple areas at one time, this procedure is an efficient way to create the positive changes you are looking for in a single operation.
