New mothers often experience difficulty getting their bodies back to their pre-pregnancy figures. Even with rigorous diet and exercise, the physical changes the body goes through during pregnancy can cause excess skin in the midsection, stretch marks, breast sagginess, and an overall tired and aged appearance. One plastic cosmetic surgeon in Atlanta is reaching out to new moms with the Mommy Makeover, an array of cosmetic enhancement options designed to rejuvenate the appearance of women who have recently had children.

(Vocus) August 4, 2009 -- In 2008, over 10.2 million people in the United States had some type of aesthetic enhancement procedure. That’s according to a new study released by the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, which indicated a 162 percent increase in surgical and non-surgical cosmetic procedures since 1997. With women composing 92 percent of that figure, the study reflected breast augmentation and liposuction as the top two surgical enhancement procedures, and BOTOX® injections as the number-one non-surgical treatment. All of these options can be used as part of a ‘Mommy Makeover,’ a new procedure that Dr. Thomas B. Lintner, a plastic cosmetic surgeon in Atlanta, says he is performing more and more. And since Mommy Makeovers involve a number of procedures, Dr. Lintner says the starting point is discussing the patient’s overall goals from the outset. “We encourage patients to come in for a consultation to discuss options with us and see what’s needed, and then plan surgery based on that.”
