Mommy Makeover: cosmetic surgery for new mothers

Motherhood is undoubtedly an overwhelming experience for a woman, wonderful but at the same time demanding. Challenging because of the time to devote to the new arrival, challenging because of tiredness, insecurities, and a body that has changed. It can happen that after childbirth a woman finds herself decidedly upset from a physical point of view, tired, fat, and finds herself wondering 'will I ever be the same as before?' From an emotional, psychological, and lifestyle point of view, many things will change, but we are concerned with the physical aspect, and so we say 'don't despair, there will certainly be a way to regain your lost shape!

A woman's physique begins to undergo profound changes already with pregnancy: the belly naturally swells almost unbelievably, the breasts, water retention. Once she has given birth, few are the lucky ones who manage to regain their shape and well-being immediately. The belly remains floppy and empty for a long time, and even the breasts after breastfeeding are almost always a little empty.

That said, don't despair, first of all, every woman experiences this differently, just as every body reacts differently. In general, however, the parts of the body most subject to change are the belly and the breasts. The belly will not go away immediately once you have given birth, you have to take that into account, it will take time. The breasts will be super at first, one or even two sizes bigger, but once you are done with breastfeeding, they may look a little hollow and droopy.

With time, a balanced diet and exercise it will be possible to improve the physique but, if this does not happen, medicine and cosmetic surgery can certainly help. In America it is already super popular and is called 'mommy makeover', it is a combined technique that can simultaneously correct various body parts together. How do you think all the new mothers in the star system get back into shape immediately after giving birth?

The mommy makeover therefore includes different interventions. Sometimes, for example, the belly is particularly difficult to get rid of. There are tissues that find it more difficult to shrink on their own, so some excess skin remains, which can be removed withabdominoplasty. At the same time, liposuction is performed to reduce the accumulation of fat and the pads that have settled on the hips.

For the breasts, breast augmentation (increasing and correcting the shape with implants) can be performed with mastopexy (perhaps the most indicated in this case because allows the lowered breast to be lifted and repositioned), or with lipofilling (which uses fat taken from another area of the body and re-injected into the breast for a completely natural effect).

For the genital organs, one can intervene with a vaginoplasty, an operation that aims to restore the normal tone of the vaginal muscles and mucous tissues that may have lost their characteristics following childbirth.

Lastly, for stretch marks that often remain as an indelible reminder of pregnancy and lactation, one can intervene well on the red ones, hence of recent formation with mesotherapy and laser.

Without overdoing it, as often happens overseas with a complete mommy makeover, it is still possible to intervene even on just one of these points, the most 'critical' one, the one that just does not make one feel good about oneself any more, to give the new mother back some of her confidence, self-esteem, to make her a happier, more satisfied and more beautiful mother.
