The Top 3 Reasons a Mommy Makeover May Be Right for You Astra Plastic Surgery

Bearing and raising children can be a beautiful, fulfilling part of a person’s life. However, once that stage is complete, its impact on the body can last the rest of your life. But what can you do if you love that part of your life but don’t want it to define your body forever?

More and more people are turning to a “Mommy Makeover” when they don’t want their role as mother and caretaker to be all they see when they look at their bodies. At Astra Plastic Surgery, we’ve been helping people in the Atlanta area take control of their look and reclaim the confidence and self-esteem that comes with looking like your best self — and we can do the same for you.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

An Atlanta Mommy Makeover procedure is a popular term for a combination of surgeries and treatments mothers often choose to undergo once their child-bearing days are behind them. Pregnancy, nursing, and nurturing can take their toll on the body, and a Mommy Makeover seeks to remedy these unwanted effects. But because each person’s body responds differently to childrearing, the procedures included in a person’s Mommy Makeover are also different.Some of the most frequently included treatments are:

• Breast lift
• Breast augmentation
• Tummy tuck
• Liposuction
• Body sculpting
• Brazilian Butt Lift
• Labiaplasty
• Vaginal rejuvenation

Your treatment plan may call for some or all of these, depending on your goals. But here are the top three reasons many people today are turning to a Mommy Makeover:

Reason 1: A Holistic Approach

Instead of treating your areas of concern in a piecemeal way, a Mommy Makeover calls for a unified plan that holistically deals with each issue. For example, we know that we don't entirely define our look by just one part of our body, but rather how they all fit together. A Mommy Makeover takes every area into account, which leads to a plan that addresses your whole body - and your whole life.

Reason 2: Progress You See

As your customized Mommy Makeover plan is implemented, you will be able to see actual results at each step of the process. Yes, each phase will usually include some necessary time for healing before the following procedure. But you will get to enjoy the building excitement as you watch your body take on the shape of your dreams.

Reason 3: Reclaim Your Confidence

There's no doubt that you're proud of your family and the children that you birthed and raised. But, even with that fulfillment, self-esteem can take a hit (or many hits) when you see how your body has lost the shape and feel you once loved. You don't hate your body, but where you once felt sexy and feminine, you now feel unattractive, aged, or worn out. A Mommy Makeover can help restore the confidence and pleasure you find in your body — possibly even in more significant ways than before!

Key Considerations

Every procedure we perform at Astra Plastic Surgery is as unique as each patient, regardless of the specific reasons you are interested in a Mommy Makeover. To make your vision a reality, your consultation will begin with a holistic look at your life and health, and then proceed to consider four key areas in developing your personalized Mommy Makeover plan:

• Goals - What are your goals for your Mommy Makeover? Is there a particular region of concern or an area you want to address especially? Do you want more fullness, tone, slimming, or a mix of all of the above?
• Procedures - What procedures are necessary to achieve your goals realistically? What surgeries are necessary? Which has the highest priority? Are non-surgical treatments part of the plan?
• Downtime - Once procedures and treatments are determined, how much downtime will be necessary to recover from each? Can they be scheduled in an order that minimizes the total time the Mommy Makeover will take? What steps are included to maximize the opportunity for safety between procedures and full recovery with optimal results?
• Expense - How much will each procedure cost? Which treatments offer the highest "return on investment?" What will the total cost be? Can I afford it?
