Can I Get Pregnant After a Mommy Makeover Procedure?

Getting a mommy makeover will not affect your ability to carry your baby safely to term. Depending on how much weight is gained during the pregnancy, some of the positive effects of the makeover will be reversed, but it’s possible to correct those issues a second time. Make sure your body has healed Many doctors would recommend that you wait for 4-6 months after the procedure before trying to conceive another baby, and this is to make sure that everything has healed up. Once the place of incision has soundly closed, your body will be able to expand properly to accommodate the growth of the baby and any additional baby weight that you might accumulate during pregnancy.

Will I Need To Get Botox After My Facelift?

Botox and facelifts rejuvenate different areas of the face, and the effects of Botox are short-term whereas facelifts are long-term. It’s really a matter of personal preference–you may find the facelift is best on its own and that non-surgical rejuvenation is unnecessary, but you do always have the option to supplement your facelift with Botox for a full-face treatment. How do Facelifts Help? Facelifts can be any combination of excess skin removal, tightening of the underlying muscle, and repositioning of the skin. This procedure is particular effective on people with excess skin that’s lost some of its elasticity. Issues that are best corrected by facelifts include: under eye wrinkles that have formed deep lines in the face deep forehead creases that are visible even when there’s no expression on the face drooping eyebrows that form pouches overhanging the eyes sagging cheeks visible folds between the nose and cheeks All these…

Neck Liposuction Vs. Kybella Vs. Neck Lift

All three procedures are focussed on creating a defined jawline, which for women will give a slimmer, more delicate face, while men’s faces will appear more defined and chiseled. Kybella is the least invasive of the three procedures, and neck lifts require the most work, but it can also address issues involving sagging skin. You may be a suitable candidate for more than one procedure, giving you options, so read on to explore which one would work best for you. Why Kybella is gaining popularity so quickly Kybella is injected to the area under the chin and reduces the fat permanently. The active ingredient is synthetically created deoxycholic acid, which breaks down and destroys fat cells. Multiple treatments are needed for a noticeable effect as Kybella works away at the deep fat layer. The total cost is similar to neck liposuction, although you will require less time for recovery. Plus,…
