Mommy Makeover Scottsdale - A Closer Look

Mommy makeover surgery

The idea of getting back to the pre-pregnancy body after child birth is neither alien nor frowned upon as vain and definitely no longer limited to the enviable "good genes". Aesthetic restorative surgery has now ramified to cater to a generation of women making informed decisions for their health and wellness thus emerged the concept of combining cosmetic surgery procedures, popularly referred to as the Mommy make over surgery.

A few common changes that are encountered almost universally are:-

1) Mammary glands: as they gain volume, the overlying skin develops stretch marks, the hall mark of snapped collagen in the skin layers. Post delivery and breast feeding the breast size may reduce but the shape is altered especially after multiple pregnancies, resulting in a "deflated" or sagging appearance to the breasts.

2) Midsection: The abdomen is essentially formed by four tiered muscular apparatus. As the pregnancy advances, the uterus expands and pushes against the abdominal musculature causing the belly bulge, and eventually stretch and separate out. This change results in the "mommy pooch", which is a combination of weakened core and pelvic floor muscles, excessive skin under the navel and the stretch marks all over the lower abdominal region.

3) Skin: shows a rather unpredictable response to pregnancy however most of the changes observed are usually temporary and only until deliver or a few weeks. Melasma gravidarium or mask of pregnancy is observed as obvious facial skin darkening, over the cheeks, forehead and perioral region. It usually settles after child birth but may persist in some women and need medical intervention.

Although, some women bounce back owing to either prenatal care comprising of strict diet, customized workouts and intense post partum discipline or a natural tendency or both, most women struggle. Irrespective, effects, such as, stubborn fat deposits, excessive skin and/or skin laxity and weakened and over stretched abdominal muscles, can only be treated with surgery.
