Abdominoplasty - Mommy Make-Over Extra

Sometimes women need to think about themselves a little bit. You work hard to help raise your families. You support them emotionally and financially. You give, give, give and often don’t ask for anything in return or you don’t give yourself anything in return. It might be time to think about a make-over. As part of that make-over you might even consider having abdominoplasty to help rid yourself of the dreaded mommy pillow.

You have braved motherhood and are now the mother of a couple of wonderful children. You might be really brave and have four or five kids but the number of children does not matter, what matters is you have been super mom for years now. You have noticed that while you have not thrown yourself away you have let yourself go just a tiny bit. Let’s face it, who has time to eat right when you can’t even sit down and finish a meal while it’s warm? But your kids are finally old enough where you can start thinking about yourself again. You’ve started dieting and exercising. You are able to dress nice again and you have even considered wearing makeup more often.

You have noticed though that all that might be for naught because you have this pillow that you carry with you. While you are making yourself over you might want to consider having abdominoplasty to take care of that tummy pillow that has frustrated you.

To clarify a probably foggy area an abdonimoplasty is the technical term for what is most commonly known as a tummy tuck. When you have this type of procedure your doctor will come in and remove the excess tissue, skin, and fat that is causing you to look like you might still be pregnant. You will get you figure back and the muscles that your little darling stretched to the breaking point, will be strengthened and reinforced so that they will not be so stretched.

Abdominoplasty might seem like a stretch, especially if you are just starting to get back to taking care of yourself. But think about it, wouldn’t it feel great to look the way you did years ago. There is something to aging gracefully but that doesn’t mean that you have to be out of shape or even carry around that extra pooch on your stomach all the time. You can look great, feel great and still age gracefully.

Don’t worry about scarring. Generally your physician will make the incision in an area where it would be hidden by your panty line or incorporated into an existing scar such as a C-Section scar. There is no reason why anyone should ever know that you have had one of these surgeries. As long as you eat healthy and take care of your body there is no reason why this surgery wouldn't last you decades.

You have been super mom for many years, you have taken good care of your family, but you are ready for a make-over to find the girl you feel like you lost when you became “Mom”. Having an abdominoplasty is a great way to get yourself back to what you once had and give yourself that little treat that you’ve been withholding for so many years.
