In post pregnancy represents an incredible transformation in life but for some women, the changes that happen to their pre-pregnancy body as a consequence can be a source of upset and have a negative impact on their self-confidence. The main areas of change are frequently the breasts and the abdomen, and it’s these areas that the mummy-makeover procedure focuses on.
Every woman’s experience of pregnancy is unique and indeed post-pregnancy body changes will vary from woman to woman, but here are some common changes that many women experience:
1. Loose or sagging skin: After giving birth, the skin that stretched during pregnancy may not fully retract, resulting in loose or sagging skin. This is especially common in the abdominal area.
2. Diastasis recti: Diastasis recti is a separation of the abdominal muscles that can occur during pregnancy. It can lead to a bulging or protruding abdomen and may require surgical intervention to address it.
3. Changes in breast size and shape: Pregnancy and breastfeeding can cause the breasts to enlarge and become engorged. After breastfeeding, the breasts may lose volume and firmness, resulting in a different size and shape.
4. Stretch marks: Stretch marks are a common occurrence during pregnancy due to the stretching of the skin as the baby grows. They often appear on the abdomen, breasts, hips, and thighs. While they may fade over time, they may not completely disappear.
5. Changes in body shape: The body’s proportions may change after pregnancy, with some women experiencing wider hips, a thicker waist, or changes in the distribution of fat.
The mummy-makeover can be a transformative procedure that helps you to achieve your pre-pregnancy body and restore self-confidence ,but as with all surgery it should be carefully considered and not be taken lightly.
