Following pregnancy and delivery, you may be struggling to get back to where you were before your labor of love. Diet and exercise alone aren’t always enough to regain your pre-baby body. A mommy makeover is a customized combination of procedures aimed at helping mothers feel as confident and sexy as they did before pregnancy, and nearly always includes a tummy tuck.
How a Tummy Tuck Helps
Baggy stomach skin and loose abdominal muscles are common post-pregnancy body woes. A tummy tuck can eliminate baggy skin and tone your abdominals for a fitter looking midsection. On the other hand, the procedure on its own does not address cellulite or pudgy hips. Your tummy tuck options don’t end with a traditional abdominoplasty, though.
The Benefits of VelaShape™ III
VelaShape™ III is a nonsurgical treatment that uses radiofrequency lasers to transmit energy into the subcutaneous layer of fat. Not only does VelaShape™ III work to dissolve excess fat deposits, but the procedure can also smooth out cellulite, making this an excellent add-on for your mommy makeover.
Better Contouring with Liposuction
While a tummy tuck can remove a limited amount of excess fatty tissue, your contouring results can be improved with the addition of liposuction. A drain-free tummy tuck combines liposuction with abdominoplasty for a sleeker, fitter final result. Lipo can also slim down love handles that a tummy tuck leaves behind.
