Total Mommy Makeover

Having children is such a wonderful event! When you devote your time and resources to your family, sometimes your well-being gets a little lost. Changes that take place in your body during pregnancy can be lasting and profound. Options are available to help reverse the effects of childbearing. The skin stretches and can result in hanging skin or stretchmarks on the abdomen and breast. Expansion and contraction of the breast during pregnancy or breastfeeding usually results in loss of breast tissue, especially in the upper pole of the breasts, causing a “droopy” appearance. The two vertical muscles in the abdomen get stretched and cause a “pooch” that cannot be exercised away. It is important to realize that it is not vain or self-centered to want to take care of yourself and feel youthful and self-confident again!
