Having a baby is a huge deal for your body. It changes things in ways that sometimes don’t just snap back on their own. You might find your stomach feels loose or just looks different now. Dieting doesn’t always fix the skin or the muscles that stretch out. That is why postpartum body contouring is becoming so popular. At Absolute Med Spa, we help moms get back to feeling like themselves again.
Understanding Postpartum Body Contouring
Your system goes through massive hormonal changes during those nine months. A lot of women end up with diastasis recti, where the belly muscles pull apart. This creates an abdominal separation that makes your stomach bulge out even if you are thin. Postpartum body contouring is designed to support muscle tone and body shaping related to these changes. It is more than just trying to lose weight.
You might also be seeing a lot of skin laxity or loose skin that won’t tighten up. Then there are the stretch marks and that stubborn fat that stays no matter how much you walk. Part of your postpartum recovery is just giving yourself time to heal. But sometimes you need a bit of technology to handle the rest. It is a very normal thing to want.
Why Postpartum Body Contouring Helps After Pregnancy
Working on your body can really help with your overall postpartum wellness. It is about gaining back that body confidence so you can enjoy your time with the baby. We use non-surgical fat reduction to hit the spots that exercise misses. It is also great for muscle toning when your core feels weak or unstable. Many patients report feeling more comfortable and confident during daily activities.
Is Postpartum Body Contouring Safe?
Safety is the only thing that matters when you are a new mom. Our board-certified providers follow very strict safety protocols for every single person. We only offer non-invasive treatments, so you don’t have to worry about surgery or a long recovery. You do need to get medical clearance from your own doctor before starting postpartum body contouring. We also look at your breastfeeding considerations to make sure everything is perfectly timed.
Benefits of Postpartum Body Contouring
One big plus is the abdominal muscle strengthening, which helps prevent your back from aching. You are going to see a real fat reduction in those areas that bother you. It also helps with cellulite smoothing and can provide a lot of skin tightening. Most moms see an improved body shape after a few visits. It just makes your old clothes fit a whole lot better.
EMSCULPT NEO® for Postpartum Muscle & Fat Transformation
We really like using EMSCULPT NEO for our postpartum patients. This machine uses HIFEM technology to make your muscles work harder than they can at a gym. It also uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to get rid of fat cells. This is a top body contouring pick because it does two jobs at once. It is a very smart use of your time.
How EMSCULPT NEO® Works
The device makes your muscles do supramaximal contractions while you just lie there. That RF heat causes something called fat cell apoptosis, which is just a fancy way of saying the fat cells die. Most people see a 30% fat reduction in the area we treat. You can also get a 25% muscle gain. It is a very fast way to start rebuilding your core.
Choosing the Right Postpartum Body Contouring Plan
Every mom has a different body and different goals for herself. We sit down and make personalized treatment plans for everyone who comes to see us. During a consultation, we look at your treatment areas like the belly, thighs, or even your hips. We will tell you exactly how many sessions you are going to need. It is all about what fits your specific life.
When to Start Postpartum Body Contouring
You must follow a safe postpartum recovery timeline. Usually, we say wait at least six months after the baby is born before starting postpartum body contouring. There are extra C-section considerations if you had that kind of delivery. We always check on breastfeeding safety and wait for a final doctor’s approval. Your body needs to settle down before we start trying to change it. We want you to be healthy first.
