Mommy Makeover
Correcting the Consequences of Childbirth
There is currently a lot of talk about the “mommy makeover”. This refers to the correction of unsightly physical consequences of one or more births.
Pregnancy means visible and/or noticeable changes to the female body. These changes do not always disappear completely by themselves once the baby is born. There are many things you can accept – after all, you gave birth to your beloved child. However, it is sometimes difficult to accept these changes.
Women who have had a natural, vaginal delivery in particular often feel less intense sexually during intercourse than they did before giving birth. This is also felt by the partner and can put a considerable strain on the relationship. Incontinence can also occur and urine can no longer be held in when laughing or jumping. Direct birth injuries are not uncommon: Scars from an episiotomy, stretched or torn muscles of the pelvic floor or vaginal entrance, torn or injured labia, an unsightly or painful c-section scar, etc.
Overstretching of the vagina and pelvic floor muscles cannot usually be satisfactorily remedied by postnatal exercises. The most important part of the “mommy makeover” is a vaginal tightening!
Labia CorrectionThe pelvic floor muscles are tightened and closed more tightly around the vagina, the vaginal tube is narrowed and the vagina is padded with the patient’s own fatty tissue. Afterwards, optimal sexual stimulation is usually possible again. Incontinence problems also disappear. You can find more information under Vaginal Rejuvenation. At the same time, altered or injured labia can be corrected (see Labia Correction and Labiaplasty/Labia Reduction). Scars can also be improved.
Overall, it is possible to correct the direct consequences of childbirth on the pelvic floor and on the vagina and vulva as it was before the births, even more beautifully or more stimulatively, so that you can look forward to a fulfilled and carefree sexuality again!
Of course, the stomach and breasts in particular have suffered as a result of pregnancy. The abdomen is overstretched and can sag, the abdominal skin has suddenly cracked, which is known as stretch marks. A further step in the mommy makeover is the shaping and reshaping of the abdomen (tummy tuck). Not only is the sagging abdominal skin removed, but the overstretching of the abdominal muscles (rectus diastasis) is also corrected. Liposuction removes the remaining fat deposits and additionally shapes the abdomen.
Breastfeeding often makes the breasts look as if they have been sucked dry. A breast lift, possibly with a little volume added by a breast implant, will restore a firm bust. This would be the third step of the mommy makeover.
Legs, buttocks and arms can also be given a beautiful shape again.
So you see, the price of having children doesn’t have to be that you suddenly have to change into a much older woman. You can be a proud mum who feels completely at home in her body again. Most of these procedures have to be performed under general anesthesia and during a 1 to 2 day inpatient stay. Some procedures can be combined well, e.g. a vaginal lift and a tummy tuck or a vaginal lift with a breast lift.
