Having a child is a wonderful process, but it can cause some definite changes to your body. From excess sagging skin around your middle to reduced breast size, having a child can leave you eager to reclaim your pre-pregnancy figure.
For many moms, the mommy makeover is the perfect solution to give you back the curves you miss. Before deciding on a mommy makeover, however, there are a few key points to consider.
This mommy makeover advice and tips can help you prepare for your procedure and your recovery, allowing you to get the most from your mommy makeover.
Choose the Right Time for Your Mommy Makeover
Before you decide to schedule a mommy makeover, there are some things to consider. Have you completed your family or are you planning to have more children? Pregnancy can undo many of the procedures in a mommy makeover and leave you having to start all over.
Will you have a support team available to help you take care of your family while you recover? A mommy makeover is major surgery, and you will need to rest. This means you won’t be able to pick up and carry small children, so having a support team is essential.
Having a support system in place before your mommy makeover is essential in order to ensure a smooth recovery.
Make Your Health a Priority First
A mommy makeover is a collection of procedures, such as tummy tucks and breast augmentation, designed to help you restore your pre-pregnancy curves. It is not a procedure designed to help you lose your baby weight.
Before you consider a mommy makeover, you must put your health first and follow a healthy diet and exercise program to help you maintain a healthy weight and ensure that your mommy makeover results will last.
Prepare in Advance for Your Procedure and Recovery
After a mommy makeover, you will need at least two weeks for recovery. This means that you need to rest and not be responsible for taking care of a family or working a full-time job.
Before you plan for a mommy makeover, be sure you can take the time away from work and that you will have a support system in place to help you take care of children, cook meals, clean the house, and do the laundry. Your job during recovery will be to rest so you need to make sure everything else is taken care of.
