Is a Mommy Makeover the Right Body Contouring Option for You?

Wondering if a mommy makeover fits your goals? Here’s what to consider.

Becoming a mommy is such a satisfying role. However, if your body has not bounced back well from pregnancy and childbirth, you may not be feeling your best. Rather than affecting just one part of your body, pregnancy and childbirth often affect multiple areas, making it feel as if getting back to normal is an impossible task. The good news is you do not have to put up with these unwelcome changes. A mommy makeover can contour your body and help you achieve a figure that looks strong, sleek, and toned. Dustin C. Derrick, MD is the lead plastic surgeon at Cosmetic Surgery of DFW for Mommy Makeovers in Fort Worth, TX.

Do You Have Stubborn Pockets of Fat?

The first way a mommy makeover can help is by removing layers and pockets of skin and/or fat that may be resting over your toned muscles. Fat often accumulates in new areas following pregnancy and hormonal changes. With liposuction, we can permanently remove these unwanted fat cells through a few small openings in the area.

Do You Have a Muffin Top?

Although liposuction removes excess fat throughout your belly, it does not tighten skin that may have stretched during pregnancy. A tummy tuck addresses this by removing extra skin and tissue and tightening your abdominal muscles, creating a significantly more toned-looking midsection.

Are Your Breasts Sagging?

Another major part of the mommy makeover is the breast lift. While this procedure does not add volume, it removes sagging tissue and helps the area appear perkier. It can also raise the nipples through openings around the areolas.
