Plastic surgery is not just for getting thinner or smoother. It can be life changing for many people who are frustrated with their appearance and want to fight the signs of aging.  Plastic surgery can also be for some of the less glamorous reasons like correcting a birth defect or revising a scar.

Take an opportunity to research your physician and the procedure you are interested in.  We want our patients to feel confident and secure with their decision and prepared for the post-operative period. If you are happy with the procedure, you will be a satisfied customer.

Once you have found a board certified plastic surgeon, schedule a consultation with the office.  During your consultation, the staff will review your procedure, answer any and all questions, show you before and after pictures, and discuss cost and scheduling.

Don’t discount the possibility of a healthy, happy you.  It may be just a consultation away!

Along with all the joys in having a new baby, there also come a lot of changes with the mother and her body.  Things just are not where they use to be!  For most mothers, you try to find an hour or so a couple times a week to work out, take the weight off, and tighten things back up.  Yet, some things just do not tighten up anymore!

If you have exhausted yourself with diet and exercise and are still not seeing the results you would like, you might want to consider cosmetic surgery.  A mommy makeover has become a very popular way of gaining back that pre-baby body.  Procedures to consider are:

• Breast Augmentation – To restore the shape and size of your breasts
• Breast Lift – Lift sagging breasts
• Laser Bra – Adds natural, long lasting shape to a lifted or reduced breast
• Tummy tuck – Removal of excess tissue and fat to smooth and flatten the abdominal area
• Liposuction – Removal of stubborn, unwanted fat deposits from neck, arms, back, abdomen, love handles, hips, buttocks, inner and outer thighs, and knees

This makeover consists of cosmetic procedures designed specifically for women to help restore their figure. If your interest is peaked, here are a few of the benefits of choosing the mommy makeover for yourself.

You don’t have to look and feel worn out anymore. After childbirth, many women will notice additional fat deposits or extra, stretched skin around the mid section. Women may even notice that their breasts have started to sag and have lost their volume. Part of a mommy makeover can include body contouring of the abdominal area which consists of a mini or full tummy tuck or possible liposuction. You may also benefit from a breast lift or possible breast augmentation.  It is time to think of yourself, and let Dr. Heck devise a plan to restore the shape and smooth contour of your body.

As with the other parts of your body affected by pregnancy, a Mommy Makeover can also include contouring of the buttocks, thighs, legs, neck, and arms as well. Vaginal rejuvenation  including labiaplasty is also an option to help restore a more youthful appearance.

Since the mommy makeover is all about providing a woman with the look she wants to regain, it can be tailored to fit any woman’s needs. Your surgery will be customized to fit your needs. The benefits of the mommy makeover are endless when it comes to restoring your self confidence.

During pregnancy, women tend to accumulate fatty tissue in the mid section including the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, hips, and even arms. After delivery as a result of the accumulation of fatty tissue, women can be left with excess skin and stretch marks.  Women also report that their breasts become saggy and small after pregnancy and/or breastfeeding. The additional mid section weight, excess skin, stretch marks, and the loss of size and volume to the breasts can be very depressing and frustrating for women. Dr. Robert Heck with Columbus Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery takes an individual artistic approach to each woman and mother to correct either one or a combination of these issues. Dr. Heck will look at all aspects of your body and even pre-pregnancy pictures to develop a comprehensive plan to make you feel attractive and youthful again.

One of the most common ways to rejuvenate women’s breasts after pregnancy is either with a breast augmentation or a breast lift. For those women who have just lost volume to their breasts, a breast augmentation may be right for you. For those women who have lost volume but also have an excess of breast tissue and skin, you may be a better candidate for a breast lift.  Dr. Heck has been fellowship trained and specializes in a technique call the Laser Bra which can be performed with a traditional breast lift to give woman a natural, longer lasting lift.

Pregnancy can sometimes result with stretch marks (stria), excess skin, and excess fat in the abdominal area. Dr. Heck assesses each patient and their goals to determine whether they are a candidate for liposuction, a mini tummy tuck, a full tummy tuck, or a combination of these procedures. Either option is very safe and effective and can give women their pre-pregnancy, flat, tight stomach back.

Dr. Heck will then address any concerns with your thighs, buttocks, hips, arms or other body areas. Typically with these areas, liposuction can be a quick and successful way to remove excess fat, tighten the skin, re-shape, and contour your body. Dr. Heck performs all types of liposuction such as Smartlipo™, VASER ® Liposelection , power-assisted, and traditional liposuction. Dr. Heck will carefully choose what type of liposuction would best suit your body for the best results.

A Mommy Makeover is simply a generic term used to describe the options that are available to improve the body following pregnancy. Trust in Dr. Heck, who is experienced and a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, to lead you in the right direction with all your cosmetic decisions. He has been performing Mommy Makeovers for over 10 years and takes an individualized approach to meet the needs of his patients.
