Mommy Makeover


What is a Mommy Makeover?

A Mommy Makeover is a combination of procedures that helps our patients regain their pre-pregnancy figures and enhance self-confidence. If you have breast, body, or skin issues as a result of pregnancy and childbirth, it could be time for your Mommy Makeover.

We all know that it takes time to lose that baby weight, but sometimes all the dieting and exercising in the world cannot get rid of the laxity in the tummy or breasts that persists. In addition to breast augmentation, lift, and tummy tuck, other popular services include: liposuction, advanced clinical skin care, Botox Cosmetic / Dysport, and laser hair reduction. These procedures can be performed separately, but it is not uncommon for a patient to have a breast augmentation, tummy tuck, and a little liposuction all at the same time.

Each case is unique and so is each patient's comprehensive plan. A consultation with one of our experienced surgeons or Aesthetic specialists can help you determine which procedures may be best for you. For more information, visit MichiganMommyMakeover.com

Saggy Eyelids


What can I do about my saggy eyelids? They make me look so tired all the time. 

Unfortunately, there's not much you can do to hide aging eyelid skin without surgical intervention. An upper blepharoplasty (or eyelid lift) is a surgical procedure that removes excess eyelid skin. If the "hooding" is dramatic and interferes with your peripheral vision, some insurance companies will cover a portion of the cost. Another surgical option is a forehead lift, which can help open up the eyes and smooth out forehead wrinkles by lifting the entire brow.

Some makeup options include using dark neutral eye shadows in the crease of the eyelid to make the area appear to recede, and avoiding frosted shadows. Curl your lashes with an eyelash curler to gve the eyes a bit of a lift, and apply a dab of concealer (a shade lighter than your skin tone) to the outer corners of the eyes to brighten dark shadows. If you are considering surgery seek the advice of a qualified plastic surgeon for the best outcome.
