What Is The Best Procedure Between A Tummy Tuck And A Mommy Makeover?

A tummy tuck and mommy makeover are two of the most common procedures for new mothers in Dubai. Find out the best procedure to help you make a sound decision. 

Pregnancy is a game-changer when it comes to a woman’s body. It is inevitable to escape the weight gain that comes from carrying a baby. In some cases, the excess skin will continue to show long after giving birth to your bundle of joy. 

You will notice some expansion in your belly muscles when carrying your child. The stretching and expansion give room and allow accommodation for your growing child. 

The expansion, as a result, leaves the woman with abdominal skin and muscles that are stretched. 

In addition to the growing tummy, you may notice that your breasts will also sag. As if this is not enough, there is notable weight gain on your thighs, back, and buttocks.

If you have tried every available option to shed off this excess skin, you may want to try a mommy makeover procedure. 

While some women will need a tummy tuck alone to go back to their usual body shapes and flat tummies, others may require a combination of the tummy tuck or mommy makeover procedures. 

A Tummy Tuck often complements a Mommy Makeover Procedure

While going through the tummy tuck procedure, Dr. Tarek may recommend having the mommy makeover. The two procedures go hand in hand as they are meant to rectify your abdominal area. Your plastic surgeon is best placed to advise if to have both procedures simultaneously. 

What are the goals you have for your body? If you have these aligned, it gets easier to decide on the procedure you would want to be done. You may prefer to have the tummy tuck, the mommy makeover procedure alone, or both. 

If you intend to refresh more than one body part, Dr. Tarek will assist you in making a sound decision as he may also recommend multiple surgical procedures. 

Tummy Tucks are sometimes done on their own

It would be best if you had cosmetic surgeries that are right for you as an individual, and that is what Dr. Tarek will often recommend. Getting a tummy tuck alone will only mean a few things. 

  • You appreciate all other areas of your body and physique
  • The only area of your concern is your tummy
  • You feel as though your breasts, thighs, back, and buttocks are unaltered after pregnancy
  • Most body parts have gone back to their usual shapes after pregnancy

A tummy tuck intends to repair the abdominal muscles that have stretched excessively mainly as a result of pregnancy. 

Once the stretching happens to your abdomen muscles, there is a loss of elasticity as the abdomen continues to grow. The stretching is sometimes so much that you can feel a gap between those muscles. 

The abdominoplasty is an excellent procedure for repairing the stretched muscles and removing excess fat from your abdomen area. If your abdomen is the primary concern for you, your plastic surgeon may recommend a tummy tuck. 

Conclusion

A mommy makeover and a tummy tuck procedure almost serve the same purpose — to give you a better appearance. However, the mommy makeover does more than repair your abdominal muscles. 

You can incorporate the surgical procedure when you have tried everything else to rejuvenate the areas of your body affected after pregnancy. 

On the other hand, a tummy tuck is meant to reform your tummy. The procedure intends to repair the stretched tissues and remove excess tummy fat. 

The procedure you get is dependent on your preference.

Dr. Tarek is able to advise the best procedure for you. While it is not always about your personal preference, his aim is to give you a long-lasting solution. Reach out to the team at Dr. Tarek Aesthetics today and schedule your first consultation.
