Motherhood often brings lasting changes to the body, such as sagging breasts, excess skin, and stubborn fat that can’t be resolved with diet and exercise. A mommy makeover is a set of procedures that can be customized to address these concerns and restore your pre-pregnancy figure. At the practice of board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. George P. Chatson, we offer personalized mommy makeovers to meet each patient’s unique needs.
Dr. Chatson has decades of experience serving patients throughout Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire. He is renowned for his meticulous attention to detail, his respect for patients’ individual goals, and his ability to achieve stunning results. Trained at Brown University and Harvard University, he has been named New Hampshire’s Top Plastic Surgeon and is a member of leading organizations like the ASPS and ASAPS. If you’re considering a mommy makeover, here are the top three procedures that can help you feel confident again.
1: Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
A tummy tuck is one of the most popular procedures included in a mommy makeover. After pregnancy, many women experience separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti) and loose skin around the midsection. A tummy tuck tightens these muscles, removes excess skin, and creates a flatter, firmer abdomen.
For patients in North Andover, MA, who are concerned about scarring, Dr. Chatson uses advanced techniques to minimize visible scarring, placing incisions strategically. Recovery from a tummy tuck typically takes about 4-6 weeks, with many patients returning to normal activities after that period.
2: Breast Augmentation or Breast Lift
Pregnancy and breastfeeding often lead to a loss of breast volume or cause sagging. To address these changes, your mommy makeover can include a breast augmentation, a breast lift, or a combination of both, depending on your desired outcome.
- Breast Augmentation: Implants restore lost volume, helping breasts look fuller and more youthful.
- Breast Lift: If you’re dealing with sagging but don’t want larger breasts, a breast lift can reposition and reshape the breasts without adding volume.
Dr. Chatson will help you decide which procedure best suits your needs during your consultation, ensuring your results are both beautiful and natural-looking.
3: Liposuction
Even with exercise and a healthy diet, many women struggle with stubborn fat deposits after pregnancy, particularly around the abdomen, thighs, or hips. Liposuction removes these fat pockets, sculpting a more contoured and defined silhouette.
This procedure can be customized to target specific areas, and it’s often paired with a tummy tuck to deliver comprehensive results. While liposuction is not a weight-loss surgery, it is highly effective in eliminating localized fat for a more balanced body shape.
