Congratulations on your new baby! Being a mother is a beautiful journey, but pregnancy can leave some unwelcome changes in your body. If your body is taking longer to “bounce back” than you would like, or if you have plateaued in a place that leaves you wanting more change, Dr. Christy Kirkendol Watson at Body Bar MD in Carmel and Terre Haute, IN, understands your concerns. Dr. Watson recommends considering laser liposuction for your post-pregnancy body transformation as a fantastic, minimally-invasive option for addressing unwanted postnatal changes.
Why choose laser liposuction?
Laser liposuction is a popular treatment plan due to its minimally invasive nature and impressive results. Unlike traditional liposuction, laser liposuction is minimally invasive and employs laser technology to melt away stubborn fat deposits left behind by pregnancy. This procedure can enable you to return to your pre-baby body, targeting areas like the abdomen, thighs, and love handles.
Here’s why it might be the right choice for you:
- Quick recovery: The laser liposuction recovery period is typically shorter, allowing you to get back to your baby faster.
- Less invasive: Laser liposuction, sometimes referred to as micro liposuction, is less invasive than traditional liposuction, which can mean less discomfort and risk.
- Precise sculpting: The laser technology allows for more precise sculpting of the body, leading to more natural-looking results.
What is the procedure like?
Laser liposuction is a simple outpatient procedure performed using local anesthesia. After making a tiny incision, Dr. Christy inserts a small laser fiber into the fat layer beneath your skin. This laser breaks down and liquefies the fat cells, which are gently suctioned out. The laser also stimulates collagen production, promoting skin tightening in the treated area.
Are there any risks or side effects?
As with any procedure, laser liposuction has potential risks and side effects. These can include minor bruising, swelling, and discomfort, but most patients recover quickly with minimal downtime. Dr. Kristy will discuss potential risks thoroughly during your consultation and work closely with you to ensure a safe and successful recovery.
How can fat transfer enhance your results?
In addition to laser liposuction, fat transfer can further refine your post-pregnancy body transformation. This procedure involves removing fat from one area of the body and injecting it into another area to add volume and enhance contours. It’s a natural and effective way to enhance areas like the breasts or buttocks while reducing unwanted fat deposits elsewhere.
