BALTIMORE PLASTIC & COSMETIC SURGERY
Mommy Makeover

Motherhood is a beautiful and life-changing journey that brings immense joy and rewards. However, the changes that pregnancy and childbirth can bring to a woman’s body can leave lingering effects on her self-esteem and overall satisfaction with her appearance.

At times, diet and exercise alone may not be enough to restore the pre-pregnancy form. That’s where a Mommy Makeover can make a significant impact. As a skilled plastic surgeon, Dr. Jeffrey E. Schreiber is dedicated to helping you regain confidence in your body and embrace your role as a mother without sacrificing how you feel about yourself.

A Mommy Makeover is a highly customizable and comprehensive procedure that combines multiple cosmetic treatments to address the post-pregnancy bodily changes affecting the breasts, abdomen, and other areas. In this informative blog, we’ll take a closer look at the common components of a Mommy Makeover, such as breast augmentation, tummy tucks, and liposuction, discuss the factors to consider when contemplating this transformative procedure and explore the benefits of a personalized, holistic approach to restoring pre-pregnancy body confidence.

Breast Augmentation: Enhancing and Restoring Breast Volume and Shape

One of the most common components of a Mommy Makeover is breast augmentation, a cosmetic surgery procedure designed to increase or restore breast size, fullness, and shape. Pregnancy and breastfeeding can cause the breasts to lose volume and become less firm, leading to a deflated or sagging appearance. By placing breast implants or performing fat transfer, Dr. Schreiber can help women regain their desired breast size and shape, resulting in a more youthful and confident silhouette.

Breast augmentation can also be combined with a breast lift, a procedure designed to address sagging by removing excess skin and repositioning the nipple and areola for a more elevated, perky appearance. Dr. Schreiber will help you determine the most suitable type and size of implants or fat transfer technique, as well as whether a breast lift may be needed to achieve your desired results.

Tummy Tuck: Flattening and Toning the Abdomen

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is another standard component of a Mommy Makeover. It addresses the stretched and weakened abdominal muscles, as well as the excess, sagging skin left behind by pregnancy. This procedure involves removing surplus skin and tightening the underlying muscles of the abdominal wall to create a flatter, more toned belly.

Based on your individual needs and goals, Dr. Schreiber may recommend a full, mini, or extended tummy tuck, each targeting specific concerns and degrees of excess skin. A tummy tuck not only enhances the abdomen’s appearance but can also help improve functionality by repairing separated abdominal muscles, known as diastasis recti, which can occur during pregnancy.

Liposuction: Refining Body Contours by Removing Unwanted Fat

Liposuction is often incorporated into a Mommy Makeover to remove stubborn pockets of fat that may remain after pregnancy, even with consistent diet and exercise efforts. This versatile procedure can be used to sculpt and shape a variety of body areas, such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, back, and arms.

During liposuction, a small tube called a cannula is inserted beneath the skin to break apart and gently suction out unwanted fat cells. This body contouring technique can significantly enhance the results of a tummy tuck or other procedures, providing a harmonious, well-balanced physique.

Customizing Your Mommy Makeover: Combining Procedures for Optimal Results

The beauty of a Mommy Makeover lies in its inherently personalized nature. Each woman experiences unique bodily changes during pregnancy and childbirth; therefore, a tailored approach is key to addressing each individual’s distinct concerns and goals. In addition to breast augmentation, tummy tucks, and liposuction, a Mommy Makeover may also include:

Breast reduction: For women who find their breasts have become uncomfortably large or heavy after pregnancy, breast reduction surgery can alleviate physical discomfort and improve overall proportions.

Labiaplasty: This procedure can address changes in the appearance or discomfort of the labia minora or labia majora resulting from childbirth to improve comfort and confidence.

Thigh lift: A thigh lift can help remove excess skin and fat from the inner or outer thighs, resulting in a smoother, more toned appearance.

In consultation with Dr. Schreiber, you can explore the ideal combination of procedures that will address your unique concerns and deliver optimal, natural-looking results.
