DR CONSTANTINE’S PHILOSOPHY
ON MOMMY MAKEOVERS SURGERY
I always take a highly personalized approach when it comes to Mommy Makeovers. I know that every woman has different goals for their surgery, which is why I sit down with every patient and discuss the options that are available in our plastic surgery center in dallas. The patient and I then decide on the best course of action that will provide the best results.
WHAT RESULTS CAN I EXPECT?
Typical results of a Mommy Makeover are breasts that have much more volume and flatter and smoother stomach. The results are designed to be long lasting although lifestyle factors and weight gain will of course have an impact.
The patient presented is a 36 year old who has had children and gained a bit of weight afterwards. She was wanting to get her pre pregnancy body back. She also suffered from having large breasts. She was a 38I cup size and suffered from significant neck, back, and should pain.
She underwent a traditional breast reduction with abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and liposuction of her flanks and abdomen all in same operation. She was required to stay overnight for observation at our plastic surgery center in dallas and was back at home the following morning. The post operative pictures are shown.
AM I A SUITABLE CANDIDATE?
Suitable candidates for a Mommy Makeover are women who have sagging at the breasts and have excess skin and fat around the abdomen that cannot be removed through diet and exercise alone. Ideal candidates should also have no existing medical conditions that would impair the healing process and should also be non-smokers.
