Reclaiming Your Pre-Pregnancy Body - Where Art Meets Medicine

June 5, 2012 - PRLog -- New mothers experience great joy with the birth of their babies.  However, the joy of carrying the little darling in the womb for nine months leave moms drooping, saggy and with fat pockets that may not have been there.  Most commonly, women’s breasts change shape with breastfeeding; their stomachs don’t rebound fully from the stretching of pregnancy; and stubborn fat bulges remain in places they don’t belong.  Diet and exercise only go so far.

MilfordMD Cosmetic Dermatology Surgery & Laser Center perform cosmetic procedures, all while the patients are wide awake and with relatively little down time, giving them more time to spend with their bundle of joy.  They can better meet the specific cosmetic needs of patients  with targeted procedures that require no general anesthesia and less recovery time.

Mommy makeovers can be one or a combination of three procedures:

Breast Augmentation:  After nursing, breasts often lose some of their fullness and might not be as high or perky as before pregnancy.  Breast augmentation with breast implants or fat transfer can help restore the breast fullness and height.  Some, however, might prefer a breast lift or reduction after pregnancy.

Liposuction:  The body prepares for pregnancy, in part, with added fat stores.  The problem is that those pesky pockets of fat around the upper and lower abdomen, love handles, hips, outer thighs, inner thighs, and inner knees are tough to shed.  Liposuction targets those areas, removing the fat permanently.

Tummy Tuck:  Pregnancy leaves some women with excess skin and a Jell-O appearance. Tummy tucks are surgical procedures which trim the unwanted skin and flatten the abdomen.

For mommies who want to address all three areas (breasts, belly and excess fat), Dr. Richard Buckley, Medical Director of MilfordMD, recommends doing the procedures on three different days because it’s safer and more comfortable for the patient.

"After surgery, I couldn't believe how great I felt the next day. I am a flight attendant and actually flew to Iberia the next day and went to the gym the next day, I had laser lipo and AFT (autologous fat transfer) done and expected a down time of 4 days. Never did I think I would be at work and working out - WOW. Thank you Dr. Buckley!" PM, Hackettstown, NJ

Dr. Buckley is giving a seminar on June 26, 2012 at 6:00 pm. on these procedures.  Anyone interested is encouraged to visit their website or to call their office for more information.
