GET YOUR PRE-BABY BODY BACK!This popular trend is aimed at mothers to get back their pre-pregnancy body. It usually involves the plastic surgery trifecta: a breast lift with or without breast implants, a tummy tuck and liposuction.
“During pregnancy the breasts are stretched resulting in significant sagging. Breasts tissue often atrophies, leaving the breasts deflated. The abdominal skin and muscles are stretched, leaving stretch marks and permanent skin excess. Fat deposits in the stomach, love handles and hips can remain even after weight from pregnancy has been lost,” explains Dr. Timothy Connall, a board certified Plastic Surgeon and medical director of Connall Cosmetic Surgery and the Meridian Center for Surgical Excellence.
BREAST AUGMENTATION
Options to rejuvenate post-pregnancy breasts include breast lift, breast augmentation, or a combination. Procedure surgical time ranges from 1-1/2 hours to approximately 3 hours. Breast procedures can range in price from $4900 to $9000 depending on the time, procedure
complexity, and materials (such as implants) required.

SPOT REMOVE FAT
Liposuction can be effective in spot removal of fat from the abdomen, thighs, and love handles. This surgical procedure involves small cannulas or tubes which are passed through the fat layer and an attached suction device is used to remove the fat. Very small incisions, measuring about 3/8 of an inch, prevent excessive scarring. Most patients return to basic home and work activities in about five days. Liposuction fees range from $4000 to $8000 depending on the number of areas treated and the time required.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Emily planned ahead and waited until her kids were older because plastic surgery is a time and financial commitment that requires family support. Recovery time varies by individual. It’s imperative to give your body ample time to heal.
