Virginia Breast Augmentation Blog

The combination of breast augmentation and tummy tuck (also known as a Mommy Makeover) has become increasingly popular, and with good reason. The two procedures complement each other, especially in women coping with the bodily changes that occur after having children.

Pregnancy alters your body shape, most notably your breasts and abdomen, and even women who follow a healthy diet and fitness regimen following childbirth find regaining their youthful forms an exercise in futility. Many women are left with fat deposits and stretch marks around the stomach, waist and thighs, as well as a loss of breast volume.

A Mommy Makeover rejuvenates your appearance with a breast augmentation, tummy tuck and, in some cases, liposuction in a single outpatient procedure.

A breast augmentation will help restore the volume, shape and curvature of your breasts, while a tummy tuck will remove excess skin and fat to flatten and firm your abdomen. For women wishing to remove additional unwanted body fat around the waist and thighs, liposuction can be added to the procedure.

Choosing a Mommy Makeover over separate breast augmentation and tummy tuck procedures offers several advantages including saving costs, limiting the impact of multiple surgeries on the body, and lessening the overall recovery time of successive procedures.

If you’re a mother who’s interested in revitalizing your appearance, please contact the experienced, board-certified plastic surgeons at the Austin-Weston Center for Cosmetic Surgery in Reston, Virginia, for a Mommy Makeover consultation.
