What is a Mommy Makeover procedure?

Mommy Makeover procedures, also known by several other names, such as postpartum augmentation or postpartum body enhancement, are a group of surgical and cosmetic procedures aimed at improving the body’s shape and addressing problems and negative effects caused by pregnancy and breastfeeding, such as sagging of the abdomen and breasts, and changes in the feminine area, weight gain, pale skin, and other undesirable effects that can cause frustration and depression in mothers.

Is a Mommy Makeover suitable for all women?

Yes, any woman can undergo this amazing experience, provided she is in good health and free of any chronic or serious illnesses. It is recommended that the Mommy Makeover be performed at least six months after giving birth so that the body can fully recover from the effects of childbirth. It is also important that the woman does not suffer from any allergies to the used anesthetics.

What problems can be treated with a Mommy Makeover?

Mommy Makeover treats all problems and adverse effects resulting from childbirth. All problems can be treated in one operation if possible, or more than one operation if necessary. Here, we explain in detail all the defects resulting from childbirth and how they are resolved with a Mommy Makeover.

Abdominoplasty

The abdomen is one of the most affected body areas by pregnancy and childbirth, especially with cesarean section or with repeated pregnancies. The uterus expands, and the abdominal muscles become weak and flabby, localized fat also accumulates in the area.

The Mommy Makeover procedure tightens the abdomen through a horizontal surgical incision in the lower abdominal area, Through this procedure, the doctor can treat and support the abdominal muscles, and then remove or suction out excess localized fat.

Finally, the abdomen is tightened, the excess skin is removed, and the area is sutured and bandaged to restore the attractive, flat abdomen appearance to its pre-pregnancy state.

Breast augmentation

One of the most important procedures performed during a Mommy Makeover is breast augmentation. Breast augmentation significantly alters the shape and size of the breasts, often causing significant discomfort. Therefore, a surgical breast lift is used to remove excess sagging skin, followed by a breast lift.

Breast augmentation can also be performed if a significant amount of fat has been lost from the breasts. Breast augmentation can be done with either silicone or saline implants. Liposuction can also be performed using Vaser technology if there is localized fat in the breast area.

Vaginoplasty

The female area is one of the areas most severely affected after pregnancy and childbirth, especially natural childbirth. The vagina expands significantly to facilitate the birth process and the exit of the fetus, this lead to the loss of sensation in it in a natural way. The external appearance of the area also changes, which leads to the intimacy between spouses being affected and the loss of pleasure, which affects the woman’s self-confidence.

Through Mommy Makeover operations, the female area can be completely repaired. Vaginal tightening is achieved through filler or plasma injections, which in turn enhance sensation in the area. The area is also beautified and lightened from the outside.

Body Sculpting and Liposuction

Most women gain excess weight during pregnancy and are unable to lose it easily after giving birth. Most localized fat accumulates in the abdomen, waist, and lower body, such as the thighs and buttocks.

This problem is easily treated with VASER liposuction, which has a remarkable ability to sculpt and define the body. This procedure is performed through small incisions through which the VASER probe is inserted, which in turn emits ultrasound waves with resonance, which begins to break down the fatty tissue. After breaking down the required amount of fat, it is suctioned out of the body. Fat can be suctioned from one area of the body, such as the arms, buttocks, etc., or several areas or the entire body in the same procedure if required so that the woman ultimately gets an ideal, tight body free of any fat accumulations.

Restore freshness and youth

Due to the constant fatigue that women experience after childbirth, the lack of sleep they get, and poor nutrition or anemia during pregnancy and childbirth, a woman’s face often appears pale, and signs of aging begin to appear such as a group of fine lines that appear around the eyes and mouth. To restore the freshness and vitality of the face and eliminate fine lines, there are several cosmetic methods to treat these problems. The most important of these are filler injections, which work to give the face a fuller and more radiant appearance. Fullness also helps tighten the skin and hide fine expression lines. There are also Botox injections, which work to relax the muscles and hide wrinkles, in addition to plasma injections, which work to enhance collagen production in the skin, giving it vitality and freshness.

Tummy tuck with cesarean section

One of the most annoying problems for women after childbirth is a large abdomen, especially sagging and drooping of the lower abdominal area. Tummy tucks with cesarean sections have recently become more common, achieving a flatter abdomen and eliminating sagging. However, it is not recommended to perform a tummy tuck with a cesarean section, it is recommended to wait at least 6 months for the body to fully recover from the effects of the cesarean section, and then perform a tummy tuck.

This is because during this period the uterus is not at its normal size, but rather it is stretched and presses on the abdominal muscles. With time, the uterus begins to return to its normal size, and when recovery is complete, a tummy tuck can be performed.
