If
you’ve been pregnant, then you know all too well the effects pregnancy
can have on a woman’s body. Not only do your breasts get bigger from the
increased milk production, but they also tend to reduce in volume once
milk production has stopped, leaving behind breasts with breast tissue
and skin in excess of the volume of the breast. However, the biggest
qualm for most women about the effects of pregnancy on one’s body is in
regards to the abdominal region.
The abdominal region, of course, will expand considerably in order to
accommodate the growing fetus in the uterus; after giving birth, the
abdominal region is perhaps the most stubborn of regions to get back to a
pre-pregnancy state. The abdominal region typically does not respond
satisfactorily enough to a proper diet and exercise routine as the
stretched muscles and skin will simply have a hard time bouncing back,
no matter what you eat or how much you exercise.
In the past, the only option women had to getting back their
pre-pregnancy bodies was to alter their diets and modify their levels of
daily physical activity. While a few lucky women were able to achieve
their pre-pregnancy bodies through diet and exercise alone, the majority
of women found that while they were able to lose the majority of the
weight gained during pregnancy, there existed at least one problem area,
most often the tummy, which simply refused to go back to its
pre-pregnancy state.
Thankfully, the Mommy Makeover procedure has been developed in the
recent past. The Mommy Makeover describes a combination of cosmetic
procedures used to help a woman get back her pre-pregnancy body when
dieting and exercising have failed to produce satisfactory results. The
cosmetic procedures used during a Mommy Makeover can be either surgical
or minimally-invasive, with the combination of procedures used for each
patient being specifically tailored to best bring about the desired
results.
Of all the potential procedures that can be used during a Mommy Makeover, the tummy tuck in Boston
is demanded most by patients. It is because the tummy is,
understandably, the area of the body that is most physically affected by
pregnancy, and on top of that, it is an area of the body that becomes
harder to effectively work out once the muscles in that region have lost
their laxness, as is what happens during a pregnancy. The tummy tuck
can effectively restore your pre-pregnancy contours by getting rid of
excess abdominal fat and skin and can also restore your abdominal
muscles’ strength by surgically tightening the muscles.
The breast augmentation in Boston
is arguably the second most requested procedure within the Mommy
Makeover. This is because the excess breast tissue and skin tends to
develop once milk production stops, as mentioned above; no amount of
exercise can solve this issue. The breast augmentation, which is a
cosmetic procedure that enhances the shape and size of the breasts
through the use of either silicone or saline implants, is often
performed in conjunction with the breast lift, which enhances the breast
by surgically excising excess breast skin and tissue and repositioning
the breast to a more lifted position.
