Tummy Tuck
Mommy Makeover
Sometimes women who are really busy find themselves with way to much going on and can’t find the time to even think through what they would like to do for themselves. I remember a Mom with 2 kids who moved into the area and was in the midst of building a new home with her husband. She was so stressed by being so over extended and came in for a consultation with Connecticut Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Dr Ellen Mahony, for some advice. Her goal was to find some nonsurgical solutions for facial rejuvenation and consider surgical soluions for restoring her pre baby figure- a customized Mommy Makeover looked to be the perfect plan!
She’s a really upbeat 35 year old woman who needed a PLAN! A proactive approach to maximize her figure using all nonsurgical options was definitely the goal for the next year. Why not try to take small steps when so much is going on and then reassess and make a definitive plan? So, we made a referral to an excellent local gym to add on some fat burning cardio exercise with toning and addressed her food choices with nutritional guidance to help reduce her caloric intake.
The simple plan for facial rejuvenation was to add some Botox to soften the angry “11’s” between her brows, her forehead creases and the crow’s feet that distracted from her beautiful eyes. A quick fix for any Mom on the go!
A year later she returned to for follow up. Sure enough she had toned her body with tennis and exercise but was still plagued with the residual baby fat along her hips, abdomen ahd thighs as well as the lax skin of her abdomen. The best solution for getting back her pre baby body was to do liposuction of her hips, thighs and midrif. This would be an excellent way to define her figure into the hour glass shape she desired. A full tummy tuck would remove the extra skin and tighten her tummy muscles-letting that toned belly slip into her sknny jeans with ease!
A proactive approach to exercise and diet, careful decison making, losing 2200 cc of fat and 660 grams of loose skin, have brought this little lady down another 10 lbs and into size 2-4 pants! Here she is at only 3 months since surgery. Call for your consultation today and find out what other people are saying!
