Pregnancy, childbirth and lactation do not pass without traces on a woman's body. The tissue is heavily stressed, not always the entire body can recover on its own. Sagging breasts, fat accumulation and drooping skin, stretch marks and cesarean scars, as well as tissue damage to the vagina can be the result. The Mommy Makeover – a combined treatment to 'completely renew' the body after one or more births can help mothers regain their desired figure.
What treatments are part of the Mommy Makeover?
A mommy makeover includes a range of plastic surgery aesthetic treatments. These include various breast surgeries (breast lift, breast augmentation), tightening operations (abdominoplasty, mini abdominoplasty), liposuction on various parts of the body, the correction of scars (stretch marks, cesarean scar) as well as intimate surgery procedures (vaginal tightening/vaginal rejuvenation, labia correction). Not every one of the treatments mentioned is necessary for every woman. Often it is enough to carry out two or three treatments to achieve the desired result. The surgeon can assess which procedures should be performed after a detailed anamnesis and a physical examination of the patient. Together with the patient, a treatment plan is drawn up that contains both the desired interventions and the required timing of the treatment. It should be noted that the desired procedures for mommy makeover cannot be performed in a single operation. The treatments are carried out separately and should also be considered separately as stand-alone operations. It is important that enough time is planned between the procedures for the recovery of the patient. For this reason, a mommy makeover can last for several months before all planned surgical procedures have been performed.
What should be considered after a mommy makeover?
The aftercare after a mommy makeover depends on the respective aftercare of the procedures performed. The patient should be aware of possible downtimes and also accept any scars that may arise. However, conscientious follow-up care with careful scar care always influences the healing process in a positive way. In the best case, family planning is completed at the time of the mommy makeover, a new pregnancy could affect the result of the treatment.
