Journey From Interior To Exterior [Mommy Makeover]:

How a couple becomes a family and another human being takes charge of their lives, the journey begins from conception. Today, when we not only can ensure sex without pregnancy, but pregnancy without sex, we have to reformulate every aspect of our thinking as our foundation of the most basic facts of life are being revised.

Women today are not willing to accept the physical and emotional changes that delivering a child brings about. Rather they want to do something about it, ‘since’ they can. There are institutes today all over the world which with the help of plastic surgery can change the way you look and feel post pregnancy.Breast augmentation and tummy tuck surgeries are the most commonly opted for after pregnancy.

Breast augmentation technically known as augmentation mammoplasty is a surgical procedure to enhance the size and shape of a woman’s breast for a number of reasons. Essentially to restore breast volume lost due to weight loss or pregnancy. Pregnancy is another factor in which the skin around the breast loses its elasticity and the breasts often lose their shape and firmness and begin to sag. There are surgical procedures like Breastlift and mastopexy for this. Breast feeding after pregnancy can also change the shape and size of the breast, which again can be surgically corrected.

Tummy tucks technically called ‘abdominoplasty’ is excision of abdominal fat and skin for cosmetic purposes. It is also a cosmetic surgery of the abdomen to remove wrinkles and tighten the skin over the stomach. This surgery is particularly helpful for women who have been through multiple pregnancies and have stretched their abdominal muscles and skin beyond normal. These surgeries help you regain your confidence and self-esteem. They have become relatively common today, where every woman is veering towards a fitter persona.

The ASPS (The American Society of Plastic Surgeons) has very aptly termed these surgical procedures as ‘the baby boomers shifts to lifts’. There are some facts stated by them in which there are close to 5 million total cosmetic procedures performed on women and men ages 40-54 in 2006. Patients ages 55 and older in 2006 made up 26% of total patients with 2.8 million total cosmetic procedures.

The ‘Mommy Makeover’ procedures today are giving women the option of returning to their jobs and careers sooner. They are finding it easier to return to their pre-pregnancy shape with the help of the revolutionary cosmetic surgery.

Tall And Tan And Young And Lovely:

So goes the famous bossa nova song. While the Girl from Impanema was undoubtedly beautiful in her own way, she still draws sighs of envy from countless women hearing that song of male worship.Which woman would not want to be described as “full of brightness and grace, the sight of whom is also sad, in that she carries with her, on her route to the sea, the feeling of beauty that fades, of the beauty that is not ours alone — it is a gift of life in its constant, beautiful and melancholic ebb and flow.”

Perceptions of beauty always seem to include the requirements of long slender legs, a gazelle like grace, a flawless complexion, and a perfectly toned body. Needless to say, the men of the western world whole-heartedly agree with this view. Small wonder then, most western women feel the urge to grab at each promise of dazzling beauty whole-heartedly.

Pots, tubes, beauty manuals, grandmother recipies, salons and pills, the size of the promise varies. But which are the promises we can believe? Natural beauty, an essentially ethereal and jarringly old concept in the 21st century way of life, is fine to go by as long as youth is on your side.What happens when youth flies away? When reality starts creeping in with the first wrinkle, you know its time to take matter in your own hands; or better, hand them all to your plastic surgeon.

Smooth away wrinkles with a chemical peel, lift a sagging bustline with a breast augmentation surgery, treat a steadily bulking bottom with a buttock augmentation, or simply opt for a mommy makeover and do away with most of your worries.

Doing Away With Twiggy:

Twiggy, the 60s supermodel known for popularizing the lanky androgynous look most modern models till date sport ironically alluded her thin build to her genes. Fashion houses prefer tall, skinny and emaciated looking models to model their clothes without a thought for the highly publicized deaths of two Latina models who succumbed to anorexia in 2006.

It is rather strange when you actually note this runway trend. Fashion designers create clothes for modern women who have curves they love to flaunt; but the models modeling these clothes are actually girls as young as 16 year olds having a body mass index below 18.

Young women no longer starve themselves for achieving that twiggy look though. The torch bearers for plastic surgery abuse, these women are known to suction of fat with procedures like liposuction of the thighs, arms, stomach and neck.

Placing themselves on the sacrificial alter of fashion they even go for a complete anti thesis of mommy makeovers with a risky combination of intense liposuction, buttock and breast reductions and abdominoplasty. Women generally consider mommy makeovers to enhance the overall appearance of their body, not to change it drastically with extreme surgeries and risks involved.

At the Plastic Surgery Institute of California, plastic surgeons know what surgery is right for which body type. Our mommy makeover procedures are formulated keeping the body structure of women in mind and are personalized differently for women with differing age and body types.

While we understand aesthetically inclined societal trends, we do not yield to extreme surgery practices and procedures which can actually damage rather than enhance.

Reduce Recovery Time With Mommy Makeovers:

The good thing about a mommy makeover is its comprehensive nature. The multiple surgeries that are commonly included in a mommy makeover include a breast augmentation procedure, liposuction treatment and a tummy tuck. Since they are performed all at once, the recovery time for a mommy makeover is a one time occurrence for a patient.

If the above surgeries are performed separately, they would result in different recovery periods. For instance, some patients take four weeks to fully recuperate from a tummy tuck procedure while some can get back in action in about two weeks. Doctors however do not recommend a patient getting another surgery close on the heels of one surgery. Hence, for undergoing a surgery like liposuction, the patient will have to wait till her body is completely healed.

Recovering from a liposuction treatment again can involve a lot of time. Sometimes the swelling does not die down for six months after the surgery. By then the mum is still battling with a changing body.

In view of such surgical problems, a mommy makeover is the best option that mothers have. Multiple pregnancies can result in a lot of physical deformities, and the last thing a woman wants is an addition to her post-partum blues.

At the Plastic Surgery Institute of California, there are experienced plastic surgeons who know how to sculpt a woman’s body back in shape after a pregnancy. Stretch marks, bulging stomachs, fattening thighs, heavy breasts, etc. can all be considerably reduced. A careful selection of cosmetic surgery procedures ensures the return of a woman’s body back to normal.

Dealing With Finances For A Mommy Makeover:

According to the President of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons [ASPS] which is a recognized board of professional plastic surgeons, the increase in the age for childbirth and the swiftness with which mothers are returning to their careers has led to a rise in the mommy makeover procedure.

There was a 11 percent rise for this procedure since 2005 according to statistics collected by the board. The cost of this particular plastic surgery procedure, it seems, is no deterrent for mother’s looking for a re-vamped body.

A mommy makeover is usually a combination of three main procedures: abdominoplasty, liposuction and breast augmentation. At times, women opt in for additional surgeries like buttock augmentation and neck liposuction as well. It all depends on the desired results.

This combination of such major cosmetic procedures is the main reason why a mommy makeover is a considerably costly treatment. They usually fall in the price range of $5,000 to $20,000 and more according to the procedures that are used.

However, at the Plastic Surgery Institute of California in Beverly Hills, we have attractive mommy makeover packages that are guaranteed to make you feel extra special. Our combination cosmetic surgery procedures come at a special discount and bear in mind the budget of the mother.

Luscious Curves:

Womanly curves have long been associated with exotic feminine beauty; exotic, largely being synonymous with women of Latin, African, south Asian and Mediterranean stock. Women from these parts of the world have a bloodline that defines the term ‘luscious’ itself.

But then again, there are exotic pockets of the world where women are slight and slender and have less curves to fill out the body. You will come across such petite-bodied women largely in China, Japan, Korea and other areas of east and south-east Asia.

To make up for the lack of curves among these ethnic groups, plastic surgery has a lot of wonderful solutions. There are mommy makeovers available that are especially suited for ethnic women. These makeovers include buttock enlargement, breast augmentation, hip surgery, cheek implants and a lot of other cosmetic procedures are available today to get the dream body.

Cosmetic surgery involving augmentation through implants of any kind is popular among these ethnic groups. But if you belong to that group of women looking to go under the knife for increasing the body as opposed to the usual reduction, then there are certain important factors that you have to bear in mind.

At times, the bone structure of a slender body cannot support a heavy frame which usually comes along with implants. Therefore it is wise to establish which cosmetic procedure is right for you with the help of your plastic surgeon. There are cases reported where women were not satisfied with the outcome of the cosmetic surgery.

Education and intensive research on the plastic surgery options available for minority groups is the best route to take if a healthy, well-sculpted body is desired. Visit the Plastic Surgery Institute of California for consultation services on specialized mommy makeovers for ethnic women.

Mom Jobs:

A pregnancy should leave you with happier memories than post partum depression resulting from a sagging bust line and a bulky body. With more and more mothers opting to continue with their careers rather than stay at home and take care of the baby, a fit and toned body is a must have in order to retain that confidence and do away with bias at the workplace. The ‘Mommy Makeover’ is a godsend to cure most women’s post partum blues.

The ASPS reported a rise in demand for a combination of tummy tucks, liposuction and breast augmentation procedures by 11% for women aged 20-39 between 2005 and 2006. Mommy makeovers involve a combination of these three main procedures besides procedures like thigh and buttock lifts, injectable treatments, etc. The effects of all these cosmetic procedures separately as well as collectively are so wonderful that it has women who are way past their child-bearing years too opting for it.

Asymmetry in breast size, a bulging stomach, bulky hips, thick thighs, heavy bottoms, etc. can all be corrected with a mommy makeover. Besides solving appearance issues, mommy makeovers also have women claiming to have health benefits. Loss in weight helps maintain it easier. The motivation for following a healthy diet and exercising regularly to maintain that toned look, are the expected advantages of a ‘mom job’.

At the Plastic Surgery Institute of California, we offer mommy makeovers tailor-made for your body type. Our experienced plastic surgeons take into consideration essential factors like your age, weight, health problems, career, lifestyle, diet, etc. and after a careful examination, advice you accurately on the cosmetic procedures you can go ahead with to get our old body back in a new shell.
