What is a Mommy Makeover?

Following childbirth, women have different concerns they want to address.  A mommy makeover is a blanket term that describes a combination of procedures meant to correct the changes in a woman’s body that come with motherhood.  The types and number of procedures vary.  Often, breast, abdomen, and even buttock procedures are performed.  The idea is for you to feel rejuvenated and see drastic improvements of your post-baby body.

Why Do Women Choose Plastic Surgery?

Every woman has a unique reason for wanting a mommy makeover.  Motherhood causes changes to your body that cannot easily be reversed with exercise and diet alone.  Also, this is a chance to tackle several issues at once.  Overall, you may just want to look and feel better about your body than you currently do.

Breast Issues

Breasts react differently to pregnancy and nursing, so we have several options available for the enhancement and correction of breast concerns, including:

  • Breast implants for deflated breasts
  • Breast lift for nipple descent and sagging
  • A combination of a lift and augmentation

Abdominal Issues

Pregnancy can loosen the skin and cause separation of the muscles in the abdominal area. Once you have given birth, it is common to have a pouch of skin or hanging fat on the stomach. Abdominoplasty, also called a tummy tuck, can remove excess skin and tighten and reposition stomach muscles. For contouring, liposuction is another option.

We have a team of experts who can provide you with an exceptional mommy makeover in Glenview, IL. They can help you recapture the body you had before childbirth. Even if you hope to have a better body than you did before, it may be achievable.

To find out if you’re a good candidate for a mommy makeover, and to determine what procedures may be right for you, make an appointment at aFresh® Med Spa & Plastic Surgery in Chicago, IL. Contact us today to book your consultation!
