Saggy belly skin after pregnancy
Loosened and saggy belly and excessive skin folds are one of the consequences after giving a birth. Decreasing weight gain might be relatively easy while loosened abdominal muscles represent more serious problem and getting back to previous physical shape is often problematic.
As the state of loosened abdominal muscles will always be difficult to moderate by mother and it is not only aesthetic issue but a functional too, aesthetic plastic surgery provides several solutions on this issue.

Belly button surgery after pregnancy
If your belly is somehow modified after giving a birth resulting in loosened abdominal muscles – diastasis – you may well suffer from several problems. Some of common problems are for instance wrong body posture, abdominal press disorder, gastrointestinal congestion or hernia.
All of these aspects can contribute to the visual effect resembling a pregnant woman. Even when a woman is trying hard the only solution may be a surgery. One of such procedures is abdominoplasty or tummy tuck.
Mini or Full Tummy Tuck After Pregnancy?
Abdominoplasty or commonly known as a tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat around the stomach while tightening the abdominal wall. A smaller incision is made and the skin and fat of the lower abdomen are detached in a more limited fashion from the muscle fascia.
The skin is stretched down and excess skin removed. Subsequently, the belly button stalk is taken away from the abdominal muscle below and the belly button pulled down lower on the abdominal wall. In certain cases a part of the abdominal muscle fascia wall is tightened.
Liposuction is often used to contour the transition zone. The flap is stitched back into place. When the abdominal muscles are loosened and the intestine released which results in hernia, then the intestine is placed back behind the abdominal muscles and these are stitched together.
Mini abdominoplasty
Mini abdominoplasty involves skin reduction in lower abdomen and in some cases muscle tightening too. This procedure is indicated most likely to women after giving birth via Caesarean incision with skin excess below the incision.
After consulting and examining the client the surgeon makes the decision whether a client should have mini or complete abdominoplaty. Examination is crucial as it shows the necessary scope of the surgery.

Combining liposuction and tummy tuck
Liposuction is another method for countering abdominal area. This is a suitable procedure when there is no skin excess and loosened tissue or muscles. Liposuction only involves removing the fatty tissue under the abdominal wall.
In order to achieve a satisfactory aesthetic result the skin must be elastic and not excessive. There are several methods how to perform this procedure. There is the classic way of mechanical removal of fatty tissue using a cannula which has been performed for many years. Now the latest method is ultrasonic liposuction. It uses ultrasound energy to melt the fat.
Combining liposuction and abdominoplaty, whether it is a mini or complete abdominoplasty, is often indicated when the area above belly button is in good condition and there is no skin excess and only fatty tissue removal must be done. On the other hand the lower area is excessive and the skin is not elastic anymore.
Abdominoplasty is the procedure or surgery which makes a perfect solution for modeling belly after giving birth and when this leaves the area modified and loosened. Women often seek help as they are not satisfied with the physical appearance of this area and often the skin excess is so extensive that they are not able to make corrections themselves even if they do exercise and try hard to get back to a good shape.
These women are often disappointed and have had all sorts of diets and exercise plans done, they are generally good looking and attractive but this area is simply not perfect. Later on they learn that it is not their fault and understand that aesthetic surgery is a good kind of solution and it is natural once they want a nice belly back. Of course, choosing the right and high quality medical center is very important as well as an experienced and qualified surgeon.
I’m happy that Valtrex (Valacyclovir) can be taken by pregnant women, but it is all individually, with caution and only according to the doctor’s advice. Luckily, doctor said that deviations of the fetus will not appear; as such a study was not revealed.
These facts will significantly contribute to a positive and satisfactory aesthetic result of the procedure. One of the important and influential factor is the post-operative plan and regime. Every client must be given certain and specific instructions how to behave and which physical activities can be performed or should be avoided.
A necessary part of the procedure is post- operative compression garment which helps and is necessary for the healing and recovery phase. All these steps will result in a good incision recovery and beautifully tight belly.
