Schedule a Mommy Makeover “Getaway”
Today, cosmetic surgery is widely accepted as a way to enhance your appearance. In particular, women no longer simply accept the changes that motherhood has made to their bodies. It’s common to have a baby, work out to lose the extra weight, and take care of the rest with a Mommy Makeover. This highly customized and complex set of surgical procedures improves many of the effects of motherhood on a woman’s body. An interesting trend is the number of women who travel to The Wall Center for cosmetic surgery from New Orleans, Monroe, Lafayette, and Baton Rouge, and other larger Louisiana cities, as well as from the neighboring states of Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Oklahoma. More and more, we’re seeing patients from across the country and from international locations. In this article, I will explore some possible motivations.
Mommy Makeover Explained
When it comes to plastic surgery, a Mommy Makeover is not an update to one’s wardrobe, hairstyle, or makeup; it is a set of cosmetic surgery procedures specifically chosen to renew a woman’s appearance after pregnancy. Pregnancy affects each woman’s body differently, with age and genetics as contributing factors. These changes most often affect the breasts, abdomen, and the amount and location of excess fat. Since pregnancy centers on the abdomen, this is the most common area in need of improvement afterward; therefore, most Mommy Makeovers include a tummy tuck to correct loose, sagging skin and repair separated abdominal muscles. Other common procedures at my Louisiana practice are breast lift, augmentation, or reduction, as well as liposuction of the entire trunk, thighs, and legs with the SAFELipo® technique. The combinations are as diverse as the women who choose this procedure.
When It Makes Sense to Travel
Most people would agree that when it comes to choosing a surgeon, whether it’s for heart surgery, cancer surgery, or another concern, a specialist is best. If a highly respected and experienced surgeon isn’t in the local area, it makes perfect sense to travel to another city or even another state. This is also true when it comes to plastic surgery.
Although the majority of procedures in a Mommy Makeover are elective, plastic surgery involves a woman’s well-being and her appearance – two very serious considerations. When more than one procedure is performed in a single surgery, the complexity is naturally increased. Therefore, more and more women are traveling to nationally recognized Mommy Makeover surgeons to ensure that they get the best possible results under the safest conditions, and from a surgeon who performs these surgeries day in and day out.
Many premier plastic surgery practices, such as The Wall Center, go the extra mile to assist out-of-town patients with a variety of specialized services. These practices can help with arrangements like booking airlines and accommodations, securing professional after-care for the patient, and planning activities for the family. As an example, our new state-of-the-art center was designed and built specifically for our out-of-town clientele, providing a discreet, luxurious, and safe environment. Housing our full-service Jade MediSpa, private fitness center, and Asian-inspired Guest Suites, The Wall Center is much more than a clinic and surgery center- it’s truly one-of-a kind. Everyone can relax knowing Mom’s in the best hands and will have a single recovery period, while the rest of the family enjoys sight-seeing and recreation. The Mommy Makeover “Getaway” is rapidly catching on.
Specialized Procedures, Specialized Experience
Another reason we’ve seen an increase in out-of-town and overseas patients at The Wall Center is our reputation for excellence and innovation in many popular Mommy Makeover procedures. We are well known for rapid recovery breast enhancements, such as breast reduction, breast lift and breast augmentation with breast implants. Our Louisiana practice is also the home of the innovative SAFELipo® liposuction technique, which has been a major draw for many of our patients from across the country.
I personally developed the advanced SAFELipo® technique to solve the problems common to other available liposuction techniques, including traditional, laser and ultrasound-assisted methods. With SAFELipo®, our practice has consistently attained superior results over all the other technologies and techniques we’ve used, with none of the drawbacks. It gently gives my Mommy Makeover patients dramatic results, with an even, natural appearance on areas like the abdomen, hips, and thighs, as well as just about any other area on the body that comes to mind. It is also effective for revision liposuction patients referred to me, who need correction of damage and uneven results from unsatisfactory liposuction procedures, which is another significant part of our practice.
In most major cities across the country, there are several plastic surgeons from which to choose, but those who specialize in Mommy Makeovers may be more difficult to find. When a surgeon has years of specialized experience as well as a unique and effective surgical technique like SAFELipo®, many people find it worthwhile to travel for the reassurance of attaining the desired dramatic results, in a facility designed and built specifically for these surgeries.
