Pregnancy changes your body. From stretched skin to sagging breasts to bulging tummy and fat collections, your body can change significantly in a short period of time. Such drastic changes can leave women feeling dissociated from their bodies and lead to depression and anxiety when it comes to returning to life, work, and intimacy.
With Scottsdale body sculpting, Dr. Nachbar can help you get back to looking your pre-pregnancy best. Dr. Nachbar has been performing a combination of procedures, and invented the Mommy Makeover, which he termed and even trademarked as the Post-Baby Tune-Up® in the early 2000s. His Post-baby Tune-Up®, also known as the Mommy Makeover, consists of one or a combination of procedures:
Tummy tucks involve the removal of loose skin and excess fat from the waistline in addition to tightening of the tummy bulge and the correction of diastasis recti, as needed. Dr. Nachbar performs the Tummy Tuck using the No-Drain technique, which he has used for all of his Tummy Tuck surgeries since 2008. That eliminates the need for drains, allows you to start moving around more quickly, and improves the recovery time and overall recovery experience. Especially when combined with Exparel® long-lasting anesthetic, this allows a much quicker recovery.
Dr. Nachbar offers procedures to address the loss of breast tissue and sagging breasts that are common following pregnancy. Breast Lifting or Reduction also includes areolar surgery, which addresses enlarged areolas, which commonly develop from pregnancy and breastfeeding. Breast surgery can be done with or without breast implants and can be used to produce breasts larger, the same size, or smaller than they were before surgery.
Liposuction removes excess localized fat in any of a number of locations, and may be used instead of or in addition to a tummy tuck. Dr. Nachbar can also preserve the fat for transfer to other areas, including the buttock, breast, or face.
Of course, all of these procedures are often done, even for those who have not been pregnant.
Losing weight is an amazing accomplishment. However, many remain unhappy with their bodies due to excessive sagging skin that often accompanies dramatic changes in weight. Dr. Nachbar wants you to be able to fully appreciate your weight loss achievement, and we offer several body sculpting procedures in Scottsdale to get you looking your very best. Some of these procedures include:
Tummy tucks eliminate the sagging skin around your belly. Especially after substantial weight loss, this is done using a circumferential technique, removing the muffin top that can keep you from enjoying your weight loss achievements and also producing some elevation of the buttocks. In addition, for patients with excess fullness in the upper tummy or flattening of the buttocks, Dr. Nachbar can tighten the upper tummy and preserve some of the tissue from your lower back to improve the contour of the buttocks.
Dr. Nachbar uses the no-drain tummy tuck procedure, which is considered a best practice, and eliminates the need for drains and thus reduces postoperative pain and the need for medication after surgery. Dr. Nachbar does the entire circumferential abdominoplasty, including Fleur-de-Lis upper tummy tightening and buttock enhancement, without using a drain.
Another area that is often impacted by substantial weight loss is the breast and chest area. Here, we offer a full range of surgery to tighten the tissue and restore shape and contour, with or without the use of breast implants. Dr. Nachbar often does the breast surgery at the same time as the drainless circumferential abdominoplasty.
The other areas of the body most commonly affected by substantial weight loss include the arm and the inner thigh. Arm and thigh lifts address the loose skin that forms under the arms and in the thighs following weight loss.
For most patients after substantial weight loss, they may want to improve several of those areas. Dr. Nachbar can do combined surgery, and there are many potential combinations, but most commonly, he will do the circumferential abdominoplasty, tightening of a small amount of skin at the top of the back of the thigh, and the breast surgery at the first procedure. Then, after two to six weeks (or longer if desired), he does the upper arm and inner thigh surgery. This second surgery can be done without having to position you on your front since everything in the back is addressed in the first surgery. When both the upper arms and breasts are tightened (at one surgery or at two surgeries), he often also tightens the skin of the outer chest between those two areas.
When you want to enhance your existing features or create more definition in your body, Dr. Nachbar offers a variety of other body sculpting procedures for Scottsdale patients, including:
With advances in body sculpting procedures, you do not have to settle for a body that you do not absolutely love.
