*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Motherhood can be extremely rewarding. As a mother, you undoubtedly invest considerable time and effort to ensure the well-being of your children. You can certainly feel good about making these types of personal sacrifices for the benefit of your family, and it�s quite understandable if you hesitate to focus on yourself during this precious time. After all, children grow so quickly, and you don�t want to miss out on any of the important moments that truly matter.

Unfortunately, though, pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding can take a toll on a woman�s body, which may have a negative impact on her self-esteem. The sagging breasts, stretch marks, tummy bulges, and other pockets of recalcitrant fat that often result can dramatically change a woman�s body. Even the most disciplined women sometimes find that their best efforts to eat right and stay active are futile in defeating some of these undesirable effects. One way to restore a positive self-image is through a mommy makeover, which can help a woman regain her contoured silhouette.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

A mommy makeover usually consists of two or more surgical procedures that are designed to restore volume and firmness to the breasts; reduce leftover pregnancy fat that has stubbornly settled around the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks; and tighten loose skin in those areas. A woman who is interested in a mommy makeover is advised to consult with a trusted cosmetic surgeon who can review her perceptions, concerns, and objectives; determine her options; and develop a customized treatment plan that will achieve her aesthetic goals and deliver the most natural-looking results possible.

Such a treatment plan may include a combination of any of the following cosmetic procedures:

� Tummy tuck

� Liposuction (ultrasonic or suction-assisted)

� Breast lift

� Breast augmentation

� Buttocks lift

When is the Best Time to Have a Mommy Makeover?

A woman who is considering a mommy makeover may wonder how soon she can schedule her surgery after childbirth, and whether it is advisable to wait until she has finished having children. When making this very personal decision, a woman should keep in mind the following

considerations:

� Childbirth can take a tremendous toll on a woman, both physically and psychologically. Therefore, it is very important to ensure that she fully recovers from the delivery. For safety reasons, it is generally recommended that a new mother wait at least six months after childbirth or until she has stopped breastfeeding (whichever is longer) before undergoing any type of major surgery, including breast augmentation, a tummy tuck, a buttocks lift, and liposuction.

� Most women are able to breastfeed following a breast augmentation procedure; however, breast implants do increase the possibility that a woman will be unable to nurse a baby.

� Studies show that breast implants have no impact on a woman�s fertility or the health of her babies.

� A subsequent pregnancy can affect the results of a mommy makeover, so further surgery may be required after childbirth to restore the initial outcome.

� Weight fluctuations can also impact the results of a cosmetic procedure, so a woman should achieve a stable weight prior to considering any type of cosmetic surgery.

� Given time, a woman�s body may correct various imperfections naturally or in response to diet and exercise, and thus eliminate the need for her to undergo surgery.

Consult with an Experienced Surgeon

Women who would like more information about how long they should wait before seeking aesthetic enhancement after pregnancy are encouraged to schedule a consultation with an experienced cosmetic surgeon who is Board Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. The surgeon can assess her needs, answer her questions, discuss her expectations, and recommend a treatment regimen to produce her desired result.
