Choosing the Necessary Treatments
A crucial step in planning your mommy makeover involves deciding which treatments to combine. The most common treatments performed during a mommy makeover include:
Breast Augmentation and Breast Lift:
Throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding, the breasts can experience a drastic increase in size that subsides once lactation has ceased. The skin of the breast can become stretched during this time, resulting in sagging and an overall loss of youthful contour. By combining a breast augmentation and a breast lift, Dr. Anahita Azharian can restore a youthful and perky contour to the breast. She will remove excess skin and tissue, while adding projection by placing a breast implant. Patients must choose either a silicone or saline implant, choose an implant size, and decide whether it should be placed above or below the pectoral muscle. Each of these options has unique benefits. For example, while many patients believe that silicone implants provide the most natural look and feel, others are more comfortable with saline implants because they carry a reduced risk of capsular contracture (the tightening of scar tissue surrounding the implant, resulting in a distorted shape).
Abdominoplasty:
During pregnancy and childbirth, the midsection experiences the greatest fluctuations. The considerable strain placed on the skin as the fetus develops can not only result in sagging skin and a loss of definition, but also a separation of the abdominal muscles, a condition called diastasis recti. This condition is quite common; the Brazilian Journal of Physical Therapy reports that of 467 women surveyed, 68 percent experienced separation above the navel, while 32 percent had separation below. Abdominoplasty in Tampa, aka tummy tuck, is a process of removing excess skin, using liposuction to remove excess fat, and tightening the abdominal muscles to restore a fit, lean midsection. A tummy tuck can be limited (focusing on the lower abdomen and involving some skin and fat removal as well as abdominal tightening), moderate (involving a greater degree of skin and tissue removal), or extended (involving a greater degree of liposuction extending into the flanks, or love handles).
Liposuction:
Stubborn fat deposits that developed during pregnancy and refuse to respond to diet and exercise can be eliminated through liposuction in Tampa.
