  1. What goes into Mommy Makeover While having children is one of the ultimate gifts, the physical changes it brings to the body sometimes can’t be reversed no matter the amount of diets or exercise you put your body through. Women’s bodies undergo a big amount of changes as a result of a pregnancy and it can be hard to get the pre- baby body back. In addition to pregnancy causing extra deposits of fat in the abdominal area, it also stretches the skin and the underlying stomach muscles, leaving the area with stretch marks and loose, overhanging skin. After pregnancy, the breasts can also be affected due to breastfeeding and hormonal changes, the result leads to breast sagging. This surgical procedure is a combination of cosmetic surgical operations that is specially designed for mothers who wish to restore and improve their bodies after the physical changes a pregnancy often brings. With a Mommy Makeover, all of these problems can be addressed at once by tightening the abdominal muscles and eliminating the excess fat as well as lifting the breasts to achieve their pre-pregnancy position. A typical Mommy Makeover includes breast augmentation, a tummy tuck and sometimes a liposuction. The first part of a Mommy Makeover is a tummy tuck. It is the most ideal procedure for woman whose stomach muscles and skin have been stretched by pregnancy on the midsection of the body. After one or more pregnancies, these effects can be significant and troubling for any mom. The solution for many moms in San Antonio is a tummy tuck. During pregnancy when the fetus grows inside the uterus, it ultimately presses on the abdominal muscle wall, pulling apart the "six-pack" muscles and often causing permanent separation. When this happens, only surgery can bring these muscles back together and restore the abdomen. During the tummy tuck procedure, the muscles that have been stretched will be reconnected and tighten. Excess fat will also be removed and stretched skin cut away. A tummy tuck can also remove the stretch marks below the belly button. The second part will involve breast augmentation surgery and/or a breast lift. A number of breast enhancement procedures can be combined to address breast droop after pregnancy. The goal is to restore fullness to your breasts and to raise and reshape. A traditional breast lift can be performed to eliminate excess skin and tighten the breast area, creating a firmer bust line. Excess skin will be trimmed and supporting tissue will be tightened to help you achieve an uplifted, youthful breast contour. After surgery, your breasts will be higher on the chest and firmer to the touch. During the procedure, the nipple and areola can be repositioned or resized to further enhance the appearance of your breast. Breast enlargement with implants can add volume and new contour to the breasts. Breast enlargement not only revitalizes your bust after the effects of pregnancy, but it can also take your makeover one step further by creating a whole new body image. Breast augmentation typically requires two small incisions. The incisions can be around the nipple, near the underarm or beneath the breast to allow insertion of the implant. The implants can be placed above or below the chest muscles. During a pregnancy when your body weight is constantly changing, stubborn fat deposits can appear on different parts of the body. The location varies from woman to woman. Some are bothered by fat in the thighs, while others tend to accumulate fat in the arms or anywhere in the upper body. Some women

It is used to remove excess fat deposits from any area of the body. Combined with other procedures, it can be an essential component in your journey to achieve total body rejuvenation after pregnancy. A mommy makeover may be completed in a single day or it can be done in a series performed weeks or months apart. A combined procedure of breast and body contouring can involve more downtime than just a single procedure. Some help at home will be needed for about one week after surgery, while complete recovery requires several weeks. As any other cosmetic procedures, it may take about six months to a year to appreciate the final results of your mommy makeover. The cost of a Mommy Makeover can range depending upon your special requests and factors as geographic location and individual physician practices. Since every surgery is personalized, the best way to get the most accurate price is to speak with a plastic surgeon. If you are in the San Antonio, Texas area, consider visiting Dr. Suresh Koneru, a board-certified plastic surgeon at Advanced Concepts in Plastic Surgery.
