The Birmingham, Alabama Mommy Makeover

Find the New You for the New Year

If you feel like you can never regain the youthful figure you once had before having children, take heart. Birmingham, Alabama Mommy Makeovers with the plastic surgeons at Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery can help you reclaim your body so you can look and feel like yourself again. Mommy makeovers are specifically designed to counteract the undesirable affects of pregnancy by addressing the areas most commonly affected by childbirth.

Not only does the body goes through tremendous changes during pregnancy and childbirth, it’s easy to let yourself slip to the bottom of the priority list as you focus on taking care of your family. Today, an increasing number of women are opting for cosmetic surgery to restore vitality in their appearance and renew their sense of self-confidence.

Every woman is different, but common areas of concern faced by mothers include a protruding abdomen, drooping or deflated breasts, stubborn accumulations of fat, loose skin and stretch marks. Even a proper diet and regular exercise sometimes can’t undo what nature has done.

Carefully selected combination of procedures

Cosmetic surgery procedures included in the Birmingham AL Mommy Makeover are carefully selected to help you get your pre-baby body back. William Hedden, M.D. and Stephen Gunn, M.D. work with each patient to design a custom treatment plan that addresses your individual needs. This plan often includes breast augmentation, liposuction and a tummy tuck.

• The breasts are often the area of the body most drastically affected by pregnancy. Breast augmentation restores lost volume to breasts that have begun to droop because of pregnancy, nursing and the effects of aging.
• Stubborn fat deposits can form that refuse to respond to diet and exercise. Liposuction is used to slim and reshape body areas that are resistant to post-partum weight loss, such as the thighs, hips and back.
• The muscles of the abdomen are often stretched and separated as the baby grows in the uterus. A tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tightens the abdominal muscles to contour the body.
• Your face is often the first place to show signs of the stresses of motherhood. That’s why many Mommy Makeover patients consider options for facial rejuvenation, including facelift, laser treatments and injectables.

The procedures included in a mommy makeover can often be performed at the same time. The professionals at Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery will carefully plan your surgery to minimize recovery time and make the best use of your time and budget.
