24 Aug Can Liposuction and Mommy Makeover Be Done at the Same Time?
After pregnancy, many moms dream of the body they had before: the perky breasts and flat tummy. Instead, many women struggle with excess skin and sagging breasts once their child is born. Many plastic surgeons offer Mommy Makeovers to help women reclaim the body they once had.
If you’re looking for a more youthful, contoured body, you may wonder what procedures you can have done at the same time. You may want to have a Mommy Makeover – which often involves a breast lift, breast augmentation, and tummy tuck – as well as liposuction. Can this be accomplished?
Multiple Procedures, One Surgery with Mommy Makeover
Most plastic surgeons have no problem performing liposuction at the same time as a Mommy Makeover. In fact, liposuction is routinely done during a Mommy Makeover. Liposuction thins out the abdominal area so that there is less fat to “tuck” during the tummy tuck. It also helps remove the appearance of the despised “muffin top.” Many women choose to have liposuction performed on the back, thighs, and arms during a Mommy Makeover, and that’s fine as well.
While liposuction is commonly performed during a Mommy Makeover, it has to be done with caution. A tummy tuck involves an incision that will take some time to heal. Therefore, the liposuction cannot interfere with the healing in this area. Any board certified plastic surgeon will exercise extreme care and precision when doing the liposuction.
