Mommy Makeovers in Baltimore, Maryland

Now that your child has returned to school, you probably have a lot more free time to take care of  yourself. This could mean more frequent shopping trips or gym visits.  However, after having a child, some areas of your body are showing the after effects of pregnancy and breastfeeding . Thankfully, at Dr. Dean Kane’s Center for Cosmetic Surgery & Medi-Spa there is a way to improve those aspects of your body that show loss of volume and laxity in the breasts and excess volume and laxity in the tummy due to aging and pregnancy.  Some of the common procedures that mothers do as part of their ‘mommy makeovers’ are breast augmentation, breast lift,  a tummy tuck and liposuction and Coolsculpting.

Breast Augmentation

A breast augmentation is done with safe, natural silicone gel implants or saline implants, which are both FDA-approved. While saline and silicone breast implants both have an outer silicone shell, they differ in material and consistency. During pregnancy, many women loose some of their breast tissue and a breast augmentation can make the breasts appear fuller returning them back to their original shape and size.

Saline Breast Implants

A saline breast implant is filled with a sterile salt water. The implants are inserted into your breast empty, and then filled once they are in place to allow your breasts to look plump.

Silicone Breast Implants

A silicone breast implant is already filled with a silicone gel at the time of the surgery. Silicone gel mimics the feel of a human breast and some women find that they look and feel more natural than a saline breast implant.

Many women chose to get their breasts enhanced for many reasons from just being very small breasted, loss of breast tissue after pregnancy, to restore their aging and sagging breasts as well as for those women in the entertainment business.  A breast augmentation can be combined with breast lifts for those women who are also experiencing skin laxity and sagging of the breasts, the breasts need both lifting and filling. Women also combine breast augmentations with other cosmetic surgeries such as liposuction or tummy tucks to make sure that you look and feel your best.

Tummy Tuck

Traditionally, the Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty is performed when there is excess tummy skin and the internal muscles of the abdomen are stretched and distended (this can happen as the result of multiple childbirths or large size births). The surgery will dramatically narrow your figure forming an “hourglass “waistline. The excess fat and skin is removed while the abdomen is made tight and flat. The recovery from the traditional Tummy Tuck is generally 4 to 6 weeks. Women still need to establish a diet and exercise routine that maintains your new flatter abdomen. Patients are elated with the result of their flat, tight tummy.

Liposuction

Liposuction is another procedure that is used for removing excess fat from the body. It is ideal for when a large amount of fat needs to be removed and it is essentially suctioned out of the body (such as baby weight). Depending on the area of your body where the fat was removed from and how much fat was removed would determine how long the recovery period is. The full results of Liposuction begin to show a visible difference a few weeks after the procedure and continues over time to provide a thinner, more sculpted and contoured appearance.

Coolsculpting

Coolsculpting is also an ideal non-surgical procedure for women who have excess thickness from pregnancy, but can’t take the time out to recovery from a surgical liposuction procedure. Women want to get back into pre-pregnancy figure, but are also trying to care for their newborn children. Coolsculpting freezes unwanted baby fat in targeted areas so that women can feel better about themselves while they combine diet and exercise to get their bodies back to their original form. Coolsculpting would not be available right away for women who have had a C-Section as Coolsculpting can not be performed along a newly formed scar area.

Breast Augmentation with Saline or Silicone Implants is Ideal for all women of all Ages as performed by Dr. Dean Kane, Cosmetic Surgeon of Baltimore Maryland.

For the smaller breasted woman or the women who don’t like the shape or size of their breasts, Breast Augmenation, is often the solution.

Whether Dr. Dean Kane uses saline or the new FDA Silicone Gel implants, he inserts the implants through a very small incision along the areola and again, no scars are placed on the breast. Recovery for breast implant surgery is usually a week. The new Silicone Gel implants are incredible; they do not  leak and stay beautifully soft. Women who feel that they need a Breast Lift and an Implant , most of the time Dr. Dean Kane can use the simple donut mastopexy and places the implant under the muscle. Women get the benefit of a larger and uplifted breast with minimal scarring on the breast. 

Recovery is usually 2 weeks. When women have large saggy breasts, but very little breast tissue, the Traditional Breast Lift is used to remove the extra skin and a silicone or saline implant provides the volume to give a perky and lifted breast.

All surgeries are performed in Dr. Dean Kane’s accredited operating room under sedation anesthesia at his Maryland Center for Cosmetic Surgery.

Plastic Surgeon of Maryland, Dr. Dean Kane offers women many options to achieve the Perfect Perky Breast without Implants.

There isn’t a woman who doesn’t want her breasts perky. They don’t have to be big, but we all want them to stand up without a bra. Dr. Dean Kane, board certified plastic surgeon of Baltimore Maryland has wonderful options for lifting the lax breast.  In his 23 years of practicing cosmetic surgery in the Delaware, Pennsylvania, Eastern Shore of Maryland, Dr. Kane offers his patients many ways to enhance their breasts. Many of these options can be seen on his website: www.DrDeanKane.com.

A Breast Lift can be as simple as a Donut Mastopexy.  Dr. Kane performs the Donut Mastopexy by removing a crescent of breast skin around the brown portion of the areolas. While there is a scar around the nipple which becomes to the new edge to the areola, it does not require scars on the rest of the breast. The breast tissue is packaged up, the extra skin removed and kept perky through this very simple breast lift. It is nearly painless and the recovery is less than 1 week. Women who have a larger saggy breast, Dr. Kane uses the Traditional Breast Lift where he removes the extra skin through the “keyhole” approach. This procedure requires more scarring on the breast due to the need to remove more skin. In both procedures the breast tissue is bundled up high appearing as if an implant was placed inside the breast. Women are thrilled by Dr. Kane’s expert ability to give them a perky breast by using their own breast tissue.
