Body After
Baby: Getting
Back your
Physique after
Pregnancy
One of the more
frequent complaints
I hear from patients
is their struggle to
get back to their
prepregnancy shape.
They've tried
traditional
approaches such as
dieting and exercise,
yet the extra tissue
that comes from
a stretched belly
and changes in the
breasts during and
after pregnancy can
show little
improvement
despite these
measures.

To address both
concerns, I often
suggest a tummy
tuck and breast lift
or
augmentation that
can be done
simultaneously. The
benefits include a
one-time exposure
to anesthesia and a
combined recovery
period. There are
financial benefits to
combining
procedures as
well. As part of my
cosmetic surgery
consultation,
patients watch
videos that provide
overviews of these
procedures, then
we discuss the best
approach (es) for
you.
Most patients can
return home the
day after surgery,
and overall recovery
time usually takes
about two full
weeks.
If you're considering
options to return
your body to prepregnancy shape, a
cosmetic surgery
consult is the place
to start. We're
happy to discuss
your individual goals
and to develop a
strategy that meets
your needs.

Question:
HELP! My face is all red and I have
little red lines all over my face!
Answer:
Facial redness can be the result of many conditions including rosacea, dermatitis,
product overuse or misuse, and sun damage. Sometimes we create our own
problems by aggravating the skin, trying to solve the issue on our own (by picking,
poking, etc).
Two of the most effective treatments for facial redness include laser and Intense,
or Intelligent Pulsed Light (IPL): both can be used to treat diffuse redness and
discrete vessels (broken capillaries), regardless of the cause.
If unsightly broken facial vessels concern you, a simple laser procedure can resolve
them, usually in one treatment. More diffuse redness can be resolved with either
a series of laser or IPL treatments, or a combination of both.
One of the best ways to prevent more facial redness is daily use of suncreen. Start
wearing it today!
And, plan to join us on September 10 at 6pm for our quarterly Girls' Night In the
Office and watch an actual laser treatment for broken facial vessels. Or, feel free
to call me at 207.351.3001 to arrange for your personal skin care consultation at
which time we can tailor a personal plan to meet your individual needs.
