Scottsdale – The reason mommy makeovers are popular is that many women are having children. We all know the changes. The body of a woman who has been through pregnancy is never truly the same. The usual problem areas are: the breasts, the tummy, the buttocks and the fat pockets. Many women cannot recognize themselves and others feel like their body no longer belongs to them.

There is no doubt that having a child is one of the most fulfilling experiences a woman can have. Some women, however, feel self-conscious about the effects of pregnancy. Pregnancy takes its toll on a mother’s body. Stretching of the stomach muscles and tummy skin is normal with pregnancy. The breasts are usually affected by increasing elasticity and softness. The hips, back and thighs may accumulate fat that may not go away completely after pregnancy. The buttocks, may soften up too, become flatter and less round and begin to sag.

A mommy makeover is a comprehensive set of procedures used to treat all the areas which change during pregnancy. There are 4 major variations of the mommy makeover we offer to our patients at the AB Guerra Plastic Surgery Center. We recommend that patients prioritize the areas important to them, so we can appropriately discuss your interests and create a reasonable treatment plan that addresses your needs.

A Scottsdale mommy makeover is performed in one stage and consists of a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), and a breast enhancement with implants (breast augmentation) or implants and breast lift (mastopexy). A mommy makeover can also include a tummy tuck with a breast reduction. The last option for mommy makeover includes a tummy tuck with liposuction and buttock enhancement, usually via fat grafting of the buttocks.

Each Scottsdale mommy makeover performed at the AB Guerra Plastic Surgery Center is unique and is tailored to your individual needs.
