Mommy Makeover - Charleston Plastic Surgery

Childbirth is one of the most rewarding experiences of a woman’s life, but the impact it can have on your body can be disheartening. Your breasts may lose shape and volume. You may be left with loose abdominal skin and lax abdominal muscle. Unwanted pockets of stubborn fat may mar your body’s contour despite diet and exercise. Today, more and more Charleston women are turning to “mommy makeovers” to renew the look of their bodies after childbirth.

A mommy makeover is a combination of plastic surgery procedures that may include:

• Breast enlargement
• Breast lift
• Breast reduction
• Tummy Tuck
• Liposuction

For many women in Charleston, liposuction, breast surgery, and/or a tummy tuck can restore a sense of youth to women who want to look as young, sexy and vital as they are.

Liposuction can offer improved contour to such problem areas as the thighs, abdomen and hips by removing unwanted deposits of fat. The result is a slimmer, more tone look in these problem areas.

Breast surgery, such as breast enlargement, breast lift or breast reduction can address issues of breast volume and shape. For many women in Charleston, breast augmentation restores breast volume lost after pregnancy, using either saline or silicone gel implants. Breast reduction can also offer improved body proportion while alleviating medical issues, such as back, neck and shoulder pain caused by overly large breasts. A breast lift, performed alone, or combined with breast enlargement or reduction, offers a more youthful breast shape, addressing drooping and sagging which can occur after pregnancy.

A tummy tuck offers a tighter, flatter abdomen to women— an area often plagued by excess skin and weakened muscle after childbirth. For women in Charleston, tummy tuck surgery corrects these issues, removing excess skin and tightening abdominal muscle for a smooth, sleek look.

A mommy makeover can rejuvenate a woman’s body, making her feel younger, sexier and in better shape than before surgery. Some women choose to undergo several mommy makeover procedures at once, while others may seek them out one at a time. Through careful consultation with Charleston plastic surgeon Dr. O’Neill, you can discuss all your options and decide on a safe, effective plastic surgery plan to create the individualized results you seek.
