Post Pregnancy Body Contouring in Washington DC
Reclaim Your Curves and Confidence
Pregnancy is a miracle, but it can also leave lasting changes on a woman’s body. While exercise and healthy eating can help to bring back your pre-body baby, for some women it’s not enough. Peel Haus offers post pregnancy body contouring in Washington DC to help you regain the figure you loved and restore your self-confidence!
How Does Pregnancy Change Your Body?
Regardless of weight gain, for all women pregnancy stretches and separates the abdominal muscles. It can be challenging to get them to return to their pre-pregnancy state, resulting in a condition known as diastasis recti. While this condition can be improved with physical therapy and exercise, some women need surgical intervention to tighten the muscles and flatten their post baby stomach.
Additionally, hormonal changes during pregnancy can contribute to the “mommy pooch” thanks to stubborn fat deposits around your abdomen, hips, and thighs. These changes are largely genetic and often aren’t impacted by diet or exercise.
Fortunately, these effects of pregnancy can be improved in the hands of the right plastic surgeon for post pregnancy body contouring in Washington DC.
Say Goodbye to the Mommy Pooch: Liposuction vs. Abdominoplasty
The best option for achieving a flat, toned stomach post pregnancy will depend on your unique case. If you have excess fat around the abdomen without abdominal muscle separation, liposuction is likely the best option for you. Liposuction can remove fat deposits and reshape your abdomen to mimic your pre-pregnancy figure.
However, if you also suffer from diastases recti or have excess skin as a result of your pregnancy, an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck might the best option. With this option, your surgeon is able to tighten your stretched muscles to flatten your stomach and restore core strength as well as remove excess skin for a flatter, firmer abdomen.
Who is a Good Candidate for Postpartum Body Contouring?
While you may be anxious to return to your pre-pregnancy body, there are a few things to consider before getting post pregnancy body contouring in Washington DC.
- Healthy Weight: As with any body contouring procedure, patients should be at or close to their ideal weight.
- Completed Childbearing: It is recommended that you wait until after you are completely done breastfeeding and having children before undergoing any body contouring or plastic surgery.
- Realistic Expectations: While body contouring and plastic surgery can improve your figure, its important to remember that the miracle of growing a child has forever changed your body. Talk to your doctor about your goals and make sure you have a thorough understanding of what is possible.
