Do You Have to Be a Mom to Have Mommy Makeover?
Submitted by Dr. Joyesh Raj on Fri 02/21/2020 - 09:00
Nothing is more gratifying to Dr. Joyesh Raj than helping his patients look more attractive and feel comfortable in their own skin. Mommy makeover is a popular treatment to improve the aesthetic concerns caused by having children. With mommy makeover, Dr. Raj has helped women overcome self-conscious feelings about saggy, deflated-looking breasts, loose abdominal skin and excess abdominal fat to recapture a slimmer, more youthful-looking figure.
However, these aesthetic issues can affect any woman, regardless of whether she is a mother. Mommy makeover is not exclusively reserved for women who have had children — it is simply a catchy phrase that describes the combination of breast and abdominal procedures and tends to be most common in women post-pregnancy.
Who Else Can Benefit From Mommy Makeover?
If you have fluctuated significantly in weight, you may experience changes that are similar to those that occur with pregnancy. Gaining and then losing a substantial amount of weight may leave your breasts looking flat and saggy, and your stomach looking flabby with stretched-out skin and stubborn pockets of fat (your abdominal muscles may be stretched-out, too).
If you have lost a lot of weight and aren’t happy with your post-weight -loss appearance, a treatment plan that combines breast lift (with or without implants) and tummy tuck could help you achieve the appearance you desire.
Other factors that can contribute to changes similar to those that happen during childbearing are aging and genetics. The aging process can cause your breasts to migrate south on the chest and your abdomen to lose its taut, firm quality. Or, you simply may have inherited your mother or grandmother’s ample breasts or protruding belly, and may be prone to sagging and drooping over time.
Advantages of Combining Breast and Body Procedures
Combining breast and body procedures into a single surgery has several notable benefits.
Firstly, it can save you money, as you will only have to pay fees like the facility fee and anesthesiologist’s fee once instead of twice. Also, it means you have a single recovery period. For many women, this is highly preferable to spacing out procedures and having to recover in between each surgery. Finally, combining procedures helps you attain your final result quicker than you would if you spaced out the procedures.
