For many women, their tummy is one of the main reasons why they decide to spring for a mommy makeover. Whether you’re struggling with loose skin, separated muscles or pesky fat that won’t go away, adding a body contouring procedure to your mommy makeover can help. But before you sign up for a mommy makeover with lipo, take a look at all of your options to get the tight tummy you’re after.
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is probably the most well-known body contouring procedure to help tighten your tummy. If excess skin or separated abdominal muscles are a concern for you, this may be your best option.
On its own, a tummy tuck won’t address excess fat, but this procedure can be easily combined with liposuction for even more complete results.
The drain-free C.L.A.S.S. tummy tuck™ combines abdominoplasty with liposuction for enhanced results.
Liposuction
Liposuction is best for women who are struggling to get rid of a stubborn belly pooch or other small, isolated areas of exercise-resistant fat. If you’d also like to address loose skin, combining lipo with a tummy tuck will probably make the most sense for you.
Nonsurgical Body Contouring
Maybe you’re looking for something a little less invasive. If that’s the case, there are plenty of nonsurgical body contouring options to choose from, including VelaShape® III.
These treatments don’t require a lengthy recovery period, yet can offer excellent body contouring results to help get rid of stubborn trouble spots.
