Liposuction as Part of a Mommy Makeover

Plastic Surgery in Weston, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Plantation and Davie, Florida

When you are pregnant, your body accumulates and retains deposits of fat in order to store energy for your baby. Although this is a healthy development, these fat deposits can be very difficult to get rid of after your baby is born.

Diligent exercise and a healthy diet can help you reach your target weight again, but even after you have slimmed down, these pockets of fat often remain, compromising the overall look of your figure.

For this reason, many women choose to include liposuction as part of their mommy makeover treatment plan.

Body Contouring: Restoring Your Figure

After pregnancy, it may seem impossible to recapture the attractive figure you once had. Resistant fat pockets, sagging skin, and other cosmetic problems can leave your body looking older and more worn out than you really feel.

Most women seek out body contouring with liposuction in the following areas:

• Abdomen
• Flanks
• Hips
• Thighs
• Arms
• Calves

Improved techniques for liposuction are constantly being developed. Depending on which body area(s) you want treated, and how extensive your procedure will be, Dr. Harrell will choose between SmartLipo™, tumescent liposuction, or Ultrasonic liposuction to help you obtain the best results. Some liposuction techniques also promote tightening of loose skin, giving your results a smoother, more natural look.

Combining Liposuction With Other Procedures

Liposuction can be combined with a wide variety of plastic surgery procedures as part of a mommy makeover plan, but some of the most common combinations include:

• Tummy tuck
• Breast augmentation
• Breast lift
• Other body contouring
