What is a Massachusetts Mommy Makeover?

A mommy makeover is a combination of procedures that can help improve the body’s appearance after pregnancy or significant weight gain. It may include breast augmentation, breast lift, tummy tuck and liposuction.

This procedure can be used to improve:

• The shape of your breasts after giving birth or significant fluctuations in weight
• The appearance of your abdomen from pregnancy and/or weight fluctuations

How does the weight of my breasts affect my back and neck?

• Your breasts are some of the heaviest organs in your body. They can weigh up to 10 pounds each, which is why they can cause pain and discomfort in the arms.
• If you have heavy breasts, you may suffer from back and neck pain as a result. This is because your spine curves forward when you stand or sit upright. The weight of your breasts pulls on this curvature and creates a strain on your muscles that results in pain and stiffness over time.
• You may also feel shoulder discomfort because of how much weight is being carried by the upper body. In addition, poor posture may be another factor leading to aches around the neck area due to its influence on muscle tension levels within the upper body region (especially those close to shoulders).

Are mommy makeovers safe?

Mommy makeovers are safe. Plastic surgery is performed by board certified plastic surgeons in accredited facilities, and complications are very rare. As with any surgery, there are risks involved; however, complications from mommy makeovers are extremely rare.

If you have questions about the safety of a procedure or whether you're a good candidate for surgery, it's always best to ask your doctor directly. They can help you determine if mommy makeovers are right for you and discuss any potential risks associated with the procedure.

While they are widely considered safe, there are a few things to be aware of in case of increased risk. Breast cancer should always be checked first and if you notice any scar tissue or breast pain before or after your breast implant surgery.

It is not a very complex procedure unless you need breast reconstruction because then you need more surgery and breast feeding is out of the question.

Why are my breasts saggy after having a baby?

There are many reasons why your breasts may have sagged after having a baby. Breastfeeding puts a lot of stress on the breast tissue, which over time can cause them to lose their natural shape and firmness.

Additionally, hormonal changes that occur during and after pregnancy can cause your breasts to sag as well. Weight loss and aging are other factors that can lead to sagging breasts.

If you notice that your breasts have begun to sag after having a baby, don't worry! The good news is that there are plenty of things you can do at home or with a medical professional to help restore their former perkiness.

Why do I have a double bubble deformity after breast augmentation surgery?

A double bubble deformity, also called a “bottoming out” or “sunken breast deformity,” is a result of breast implant placement that causes the lower half of the breast to be significantly smaller than the top portion of your breast. This can happen for many reasons, but most commonly because:

• Your breast implants are too large for your body. That's right—your surgeon may have selected a breast implant that's too big for you! Does this sound impossible? It actually happens more often than you might think. The best way to avoid this outcome is by having a consultation with several board-certified plastic surgeons and comparing their recommendations before making any final decisions about what size breast implant should be used during your surgery.
• Your breasts naturally sit higher on your chest wall (as opposed to being positioned closer towards the center). Unfortunately, when they're positioned higher up instead of centered between both shoulders and hips (where they're supposed to sit), they'll usually still appear symmetrical even though one side may be bigger than another since both sides will "overlap" each other due to gravity pulling everything downward over time; but as soon as someone looks past those "top layers" (and focuses instead on how much larger one side appears compared with another), then they'll notice immediately which side has been overfilled."

Why can I see rippling and wrinkling in my breast implants?

This is normal and should not be a cause for concern. The breast implant has not ruptured, nor is it malpositioned. It may be that the skin of your breast has been stretched out and as a result resembles wrinkling or rippling in an otherwise smooth surface.

If you are concerned about this, please seek the advice of your plastic surgeon who will be able to reassure you that there is no need for concern.

The most likely cause for this appearance would be if the breast implants were too small or large for your frame and shape, resulting in what is known as “bottoming out” where the lower portion of the breast implant looks distorted due to overfilling (even though this does not affect functionality).

The other possible explanation can be related back to how well positioned both breast implants are relative to each other on either side of your body; this could lead one side looking more prominent than its counterpart due to different positioning relative to gravity etc...

What is the difference between saline and silicone breast implants?

The difference between saline and silicone breast implants is a common question for many women. Both types of breast implants have their pros and cons, but at the end of the day, it’s up to each woman to decide which she likes better.

Silicone and saline implants are filled with either a liquid or gel that gives them their shape; this liquid or gel is called the “implant medium.” Each implant medium has its own pros and cons:

• Saline implants are often more affordable than silicone implants because they require fewer materials to be made. Because there's less material needed for salines, they tend to be less expensive than silicones (which are often imported from other countries). However, since there's less material needed for these fillers, they tend not last as long as other options—meaning you'll likely need another surgery down the line if you choose this type of filler.
• Silicone breast augmentation generally lasts longer than saline since it does not deteriorate over time like saline does; however it may cause more complications in some cases because of its inability to absorb shock forces like salt water can do.[1]

Why is breast implant illness so controversial?

Breast implant illness is so controversial because it is a poorly understood phenomenon, with many different causes and treatments.

• There are many different causes of breast implant illness. Some women have breast implants that were made out of silicone and they got sick from them; other women have breast implants that are made out of saline solution, but they also get sick.
• Because there are so many different causes and treatments for breast implant illness, it's hard to know what to do when your doctor first tells you that your breasts might be making you ill.

Mentally Preparing for Your Mommy Makeover

When you have a mommy makeover, it’s easy to get caught up in your excitement about the procedure and forget about how important it is to take care of yourself both before and after surgery.

You might find that mentally preparing for your mommy makeover can be as important as physically preparing.

There are many things that need to be considered when mentally preparing for surgery.

What to Expect During a Breast Augmentation Procedure

During the procedure, the surgeon will make an incision in your breast crease. Your surgeon will then insert a cannula through that incision to access the breast tissue and deliver saline-filled silicone or saline implants into each breast.

Using sutures, your surgeon will sew up the incisions and cover them with compression garments (a bra). The surgery takes about one hour to complete. You must wait at least two weeks before showering until all of your stitches are removed by your doctor.

You may go home after a few hours if you don’t have any complications during surgery or recovery; otherwise, you can expect recovery at home for about 2–3 days afterward.

A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, can help women reverse the effects of weight gain and loss, pregnancy and aging.

A tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that reshapes the abdominal region to give it a more flat, smooth appearance. It can help women reverse the effects of weight gain and loss, pregnancy, and aging.

The tummy tuck procedure takes about two to three hours depending on how much skin needs to be removed or tightened. Patients can expect their recovery time to be four to six weeks before returning back to work.

For most people who are able to recover at home, they will need someone there with them for at least two days after surgery.

While some patients opt for a mini tummy tuck, which only involves working with muscles around the waistline but not removing any excess skin (similarly priced), others opt for more extensive procedures that may include liposuctioning fat from other areas such as hips and thighs before performing an abdominoplasty (full tummy tuck).

While both options can produce amazing results depending on what you're looking for - one might yield better results than another in certain situations based on factors like genetics and lifestyle habits like smoking habits which could negatively impact healing time if not addressed beforehand."

What Are Plastic Surgery Procedures Included in Mommy Makeover Surgery?

The standard Mommy Makeover includes the following procedures:

• Breast augmentation. This procedure involves placing saline or silicone implants in your breasts to enlarge them and give you a more youthful shape.
• Breast lift (mastopexy). A breast lift raises and reshapes sagging breasts, often with surgery alone or combined with a breast augmentation.
• Tummy tuck. The tummy tuck removes excess skin around the midsection, tightens abdominal muscles and reduces fat deposits that may have accumulated under the skin. It can also remove stretch marks from pregnancy or other causes of weight gain.
• Liposuction. Liposuction removes fat from areas of your body that you want to improve, including hips, abdomen and thighs (the last two are common spots for women who have given birth). It's often done as part of an overall "Mommy Makeover" series of procedures to help improve body contours after childbirth.
• Labiaplasty (labia reduction). This procedure reduces protruding labia minora tissue on either side of the vaginal opening so that it doesn't interfere with activities like exercising or wearing certain clothing styles (for example, bathing suits).

A mommy makeover is a great way to make a woman feel good about herself again. It can give her confidence and restore her self-esteem.

It's important not to rush into having the surgery though, so take your time and think about what you want out of it before going under the knife!
