A mommy makeover is more than just wearing lipstick and switching your Allbirds for heels. Many women have seen their legs and stomachs transform, and even their walkers have been transformed. While some may have worn compression girdles, or walked with loose skin on Instagram, the mommy makeover has grown to be more than a fashion statement. A mommy makeup can include everything you need to make your skin look better, such as getting rid of stretch marks or even regaining your skin tone.
Procedures
The type of mommy makeover determines how long it takes to recover. It may take between one and two weeks to recover. Patients will experience bruising, soreness, and swelling after the procedure. They might also feel tired and restricted in their activities. During this period, patients should avoid driving and routine tasks. A surgeon might prescribe pain medication to help with recovery. Many people take these medications to ease their pain and discomfort.
Recovery time
The recovery time after a mommy makeover depends on the extent of the procedure, the patient's general health, and how closely she follows postoperative instructions. Two to four weeks is the average time patients can resume their normal activities after surgery. Most post-operative swelling should be gone by this point. Once swelling has decreased, you can resume light activity. After six weeks, strenuous activities are allowed. Patients should avoid strenuous activities for several weeks following the procedure to ensure a safe and complete recovery.
Risks
Although mommy makeovers can have many benefits there are also potential dangers. Before going through with this procedure, it is important that patients aren't pregnant. Mommy Makeovers may result in women getting pregnant. It is important to ask all questions prior to undergoing any surgery. Doctors shouldn't rush you. You can also get advice from them regarding post-operative care.
