Complete Body Rejuvenation with a Mommy Makeover in Chicago, IL

For many women in Chicago, IL, becoming a mother is considered one of the highlights of their lives. Along with graduating from college, marrying, achieving career success and other huge milestones, pregnancy is often regarded as a joyful time. Unfortunately, not every woman is delighted with the effect pregnancy can have on her body. While some women “bounce back” to their pre-baby shape seemingly without effort, others may be left with drooping stomach skin, stubborn fat deposits, sagging breasts, stretch marks and even scars from traumatic birth or a c-section. If you love your baby but are decidedly less than pleased about what pregnancy has done to your body, a mommy makeover procedure can give you a complete body rejuvenation.

Tailored to Your Individual Needs

A mommy makeover is a combination procedure. While one woman may want breast augmentation and liposuction, another woman may want a tummy tuck. A mommy makeover is tailored to your concerns. This procedure is not designed to erase all signs of childbirth; it is designed to address only the aspects you don’t like. If pregnancy gave you larger breasts or a more rounded backside, you can keep those happy results and focus on correcting what you don’t care for.

Preparing for Your Mommy Makeover

It can take up to a year for your body to completely recover from giving birth. If you breastfed, you will want to wait a year after weaning to see how your body responds. In addition, you will want to be at a healthy and stable weight. It is also important to follow an energetic exercise program and have a good level of fitness before your procedure. If you’re unsure if this procedure is right for you, Dr. Gutowski will help you make an informed decision during your initial consultation.

What are the Benefits?

A mommy makeover comes with many notable benefits, including long-lasting results, a reversal of the negative effects of pregnancy and childbirth, and a sense of self-confidence that will have you feeling closer to your pre-baby figure.

A mommy makeover can help you reclaim your pre-baby body. If you feel you may be ready to explore this option further or have any questions, feel free to schedule a consultation with us at aFresh® Med Spa & Plastic Surgery in Chicago, IL. We would be delighted to assess your case and advise you of all available options. Contact us today to schedule your first appointment!
