Cosmetic Surgeries for the Seasons
Following pregnancy, many women find that their bodies have gone through so many changes that they can hardly recognize themselves. The abdomen and breasts typically fill out, and the skin covering them stretches. This can lead to sagging breasts, extra abdominal skin and possibly abdominal fat that are difficult to rid oneself of using diet and exercise alone. Rather than giving in to these seemingly inevitable changes, women who are done having children may want to consider one or two cosmetic procedures that can return their bodies to normal.
Cosmetic Surgery After Childbirth
Moms may want to consider a breast lift, which can remove the look of sagging, drooping breasts and instead give them newly lifted breasts by removing excess skin and tissue. This procedure may be combined with a breast augmentation for women who have gone down several cup sizes following pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Another option that is often part of a “mommy makeover” is a tummy tuck. Even after months to years of diet and exercise, many women find that they still have excess tissue around their middles that gives them the look of a permanent muffin top. This is often something they have no control over because no amount of diet and exercise will change the look of loose abdominal skin on a postpartum body. A tummy tuck can remove this extra skin as well as fat while also tightening the muscles of the abdomen to give women a newly cinched look. Some women may also want to include a liposuction with this procedure. Women who keep their weight under control can typically enjoy the results of this surgery for the rest of their lives.
Cosmetic Procedures in Newport Beach
Dr. Tavoussi performs each of these procedures at the Pacifica Outpatient Surgery Center north of our Newport Beach office. They are all same-day procedures with minimal recovery times. While women will need several days to recover, they can typically return to work within a week following these surgeries.
While a healthy pregnancy and delivery can bring joy and contentment to women, it can also bring unwanted body changes that make women feel self-conscious about going out in public, especially in form-fitting clothes or swimwear. Dr. Tavoussi can discuss with women what cosmetic procedure may best meet their needs. Dr. Tavoussi, a double-board certified surgeon serving all of Orange County, specializes in breast surgeries as well as in body procedures that can give women harmonious, beautiful shapes.
