Mommy Makeover-- Do Something for Yourself this Mother's Day

We all know how much moms sacrifice for their children-- time, money, energy, solitude, and the list goes on. A youthful-looking body, however, doesn't have to be a permanent part of that sacrifice. Though pregnancy does take its toll on such areas as the breasts, abdomen, thighs, and hips, there are numerous cosmetic procedures available to help. As Mother's Day approaches, some moms are opting to do a little something for themselves. Sure the cards, the brunches, the flowers are all nice, but a rejuvenated body is even nicer.

A mommy makeover is a combination of procedures used to roll back the clock on the body after pregnancy. It can consist of any combination of such procedures as:
*Liposuction
*Breast Augmentation
*Breast Lift
*Tummy Tuck

After one or more pregnancies, woman's breasts often lose shape or volume, abdomens can be left with loose skin and stretched abdominal muscle, and the body may be left with stubborn areas of fat. Despite a healthy diet and regular visits to the gym, these issues just don't go away. Instead of just accepting it as part of motherhood, more and more moms are consulting their plastic surgeons.

For more information about such mommy makeover procedures as liposuction, breast augmentation, breast lift or abdominoplasty, The Woodlands plastic surgeon Dr. Sugene Kim offers great information on her website.
