Mother’s Day seems a good time to discuss one of the most popular requests in my practice: the combination of breast and tummy enhancement procedures known as the Mommy Makeover. In Denver, Mommy Makeover procedures are becoming increasingly popular.
We all celebrate and appreciate the great personal sacrifices made by Moms. For most Moms, the great joy and fulfillment of pregnancy and childbirth can come at the cost of some undesirable physical changes.
The changes to the breasts and tummy can include loss of skin elasticity and loss of shape. The physical changes that persist after pregnancy can mean self-consciousness and diminished self image. Many women tell me they feel so self conscious, they avoid looking in the mirror, do not allow their husbands to see them undressed, and even experience sexual inhibitions.
Commonly women complain of breasts becoming droopy or saggy, and with loss of volume and shape. Denver breast augmentation or breast implant surgery restores volume and shape. For drooping or sagging, breast lift (mastopexy) will improve the shape and position of the breasts. Combining augmentation with breast lift (Augmentation Mastopexy) is common solution to correct the deflation and drooping of the breast after pregnancy and nursing.
Tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty) includes many different techniques customized to the individual and can include different combinations of procedures to repair the muscle of the abdomen, as well as removing excess skin and fat.
Call to schedule a consultation with me, Dr. Paul Zwiebel, if you (or a “Mommy” dear to your heart) would like to learn more about how we can help to repair some of the body changes left after pregnancy.
