Recover body figure after pregnancy

Postpartum surgery, what should I retouch first?

Being a mother is a wonderful experience, however, it leaves some consequences on the body such as stretch marks, sagging, fat accumulation, etc.

After pregnancy, the body recovers from some of the changes produced during this stage, but others leave greater sequelae and, therefore, more difficult to recover and transform the body forever: such as sagging breasts and flabby abdomen skin.

The surgeries recommended for these changes are usually:

 
• Abdominoplasty

 

• Liposuction

 

• Breast lift (with or without implants)

Depending on the patient’s need, the Dr. Franklin Peña will make the corresponding evaluations, and the surgery proposal according to the results of the evaluations. Since, the combination of several surgeries will require previous studies.

How long should I wait after giving birth for plastic surgery?

It is advisable to be sure that you will not have children again, since although no plastic surgery would be inconvenient if there were a subsequent pregnancy, the results of the operation would be affected.

After nine months of pregnancy, the uterus takes from about 6 to 8 weeks to recover its original size before pregnancy, but some parts of the body no longer return to the state before it.

To perform a tummy tuck it is best to wait at least 6 months, to allow the muscles of the abdomen to relocate, in addition to allowing time for the hormones to return to their natural state, and thus the Dr. Franklin Peña can better assess the sagging resulting from pregnancy.

As for the mastopexy or breast lift, you can wait between 3 to 4 months after you stop breastfeeding.

It should be taken into account, to have an aid for the care of the baby after plastic surgery, since you should avoid abrupt exercises, such as loading it after a tummy tuck.
