Being a mother is one of the greatest joys life has to offer
However, it does take a toll on your body!
The aim of a “Mummy Makeover” is to restore your body and boost your confidence via a range of plastic surgery procedures. There is no preset formula, instead, it is a process of selecting the procedures that address your personal concerns.
Many women look to mummy makeover surgery to refresh their visual aesthetic and confidence after the significant experience of childbirth. This can help to ease the already stressful period that post-pregnancy creates.
Benefits of our mummy makeover procedure Coffs Harbour
A before and after example of the breast augmentation procedure which can be performed as part of a mummy makeover at PCLS Coffs Harbour.
- Pregnancy stretches the abdominal muscles and skin. Sometimes this leaves women with loose skin, and a weakened abdominal region. A tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat and tightens abdominal muscles to improve body tone and contours
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding can dramatically alter the appearance of your breasts, leaving them deflated and smaller. A breast augmentation, using implants, can add fullness and improve overall breast shape
- A breast lift, or mastopexy, is suitable if you want to retain your pre-pregnancy breast size but regain the tone and contour of your breast
- In some women, both augmentation and breast lift are required for a good result.
- Some women are left with stubborn areas of fat post-pregnancy, even after diet and exercise. Liposuction can assist with reshaping and contouring your body to its pre-pregnancy form
The benefits of breast surgery procedure can be profound, however, you should
discuss your goals during your consultation to ensure this is the right procedure for you.
