New Jersey Mommy Makeover
Having children doesn't mean you have to give up your figure or sacrifice looking and feeling great. Mommy Makeovers help women restore their bodies after pregnancy in New Jersey with body contouring procedures such as tummy tucks, liposuction and breast augmentation.
In preparation for your Mommy Makeover, Dr. Richard D'Amico will meet with you one-on-one to discuss your individual needs and create a comprehensive plan to achieve the look you desire.
Who is a Good Candidate?
Women who lead active and healthy lives but have noticed the negative effects pregnancy has had on their bodies are candidates for Mommy Makeovers. Dr. D'Amico performs Mommy Makeovers not only for recent mothers but also for women who have raised their children and are now ready to turn their focus toward rejuvenating their bodies. Each Mommy Makeover is customized to the patient's specific needs in order to create individualized, natural looking results. If you're considering combining procedures such as a tummy tuck and breast augmentation in New Jersey, Dr. D'Amico will explain advances in techniques that can help to refresh your appearance.
How It's Done
Each Mommy Makeover combines procedures to match a patient's specific needs. Most Mommy Makeovers include some form of breast enhancement combined with a tummy tuck and liposuction. New Jersey women can choose between breast augmentation and a breast lift, while some patients elect to combine the two procedures to enhance both the size and the shape of their breasts.
A tummy tuck removes excess abdominal skin that may have stretched out during pregnancy and never "snapped back." As part of the procedure, Dr. D'Amico also repairs and tightens separated abdominal muscles to create a flatter abdomen and slimmer waist.
In addition, many Mommy Makeover patients choose to have liposuction in New Jersey to get rid of small pockets of fat in various areas of the body that tend to be resistant to diet and exercise. This simple yet effective procedure serves as the final step in creating smoother, more youthful body contours.
To meet his patients' varying needs, Dr. D'Amico offers both traditional liposuction as well as other alternatives. Always in touch with the latest technologies and techniques, Dr. D'Amico performs BodyTite™, which uses Radiofrequency Assisted LipoTightening (RFAL™), and HydraSolve™ , which uses low-energy Tissue Liquefaction Technology™ (TLT).
New Jersey Mommy Makeover Recovery
The recovery time for a Mommy Makeover varies greatly depending on the extent of the procedure. During your consultation, Dr. D'Amico can give you a more specific time frame for recovery, but you should plan on spending 1 to 2 weeks resting. Setting aside time for a relaxed and stress-free recovery period will help the body heal faster and more fully.
After your surgery, our staff will give you instructions explaining how long you should avoid activities such as heavy lifting and strenuous exercise. Also, you will receive pain medication to assist you in the days following your procedure, and you may be required to wear support bandages to help ensure proper healing.
