Going through pregnancy and having a child forever changes you. The good news is that it doesn’t have to forever change you physically. You can reclaim your pre-baby body with surgical and non-surgical body contouring options like CoolSculpting, the tummy tuck, or the mommy makeover. That way, you can enjoy your new role as a mother while maintaining your confidence in your body and appearance.
CoolSculpting
This non-surgical body contouring treatment is ideal for patients who want to target stubborn fat and experience permanent results without surgery. The energy-based device relies on freezing temperatures to crystallize fat cells, which results in cell death.
Once the fat cells freeze and die, the body flushes them out via the lymphatic system. This process can take up to 12 weeks, after which patients can expect visible improvements in the appearance of their treatment area. Click here to learn more.
Who It’s Right for and What To Expect
Women who want to target pockets of stubborn fat that have developed post-pregnancy and don’t respond to a healthy diet and regular exercise are good candidates for this treatment since it delivers gradual yet noticeable and permanent results.
There’s no downtime, no discomfort, and no long recovery. Patients can resume all their normal daily activities after treatment, and within three months of their first session, can expect visibly reduced fat volume in the treatment area. This device can effectively reduce stubborn fat in nine FDA-approved areas, including the area beneath the chin, the arms, legs, and the abdomen,
The Mommy Makeover
This surgical body contouring treatment includes several surgical treatments that all work together to help women reclaim their pre-baby bodies. A typical procedure includes breast augmentation, liposuction to contour different areas of the body and permanently remove stubborn fat, the tummy tuck, to flatten the midsection and contour the area, and a breast lift, to lift the breasts higher into the most youthful position.
The benefit of combining multiple procedures into one surgical appointment is that it eliminates the need for multiple surgeries and multiple recoveries and helps women achieve their ideal body in less time.
The Tummy Tuck
Abdominoplasty is a customizable body contouring procedure that can target the upper abdomen, the lower abdomen, or the entire midsection based on the patient’s needs. During the procedure, the surgeon removes excess fat cells with liposuction techniques to permanently reduce fat volume in the area.
He can also contour the flanks and lower back by removing stubborn fat to improve body proportions. This procedure also removes excess skin and tissue that causes sagging and drooping, and strengthens and tightens the abdominal muscles.
If you want to reclaim your pre-baby body, you have options. You don’t have to spend hours in the gym or eat a next-to-nothing diet to lose that stubborn fat and redefine your body. These treatment options can be customized to meet your needs and help you achieve a body that looks even better than your pre-baby one. The first step is to meet with a surgeon who has experience performing these treatments and can customize your treatment plan accordingly.
