What is a Mommy Makeover?

Mommy Makeover is a combination of several procedures at Southern Surgical Arts with the goal of restoring a woman's body to pre-pregnancy days. The procedures commonly combined include tummy tuck, breast augmentation with lift if necessary and SmartLipo laser body sculpting. The effects of pregnancy include stretching of the skin, fat deposits, stretch marks and a weakness of the abdominal wall causing a woman to feel insecure about losing her youthful figure.

The ultimate goal is your satisfaction and improved, natural appearance without any obvious signs of surgery. Through meticulous attention to detail all scars are well hidden, and minimally invasive techniques are performed whenever possible to give you the best result with the least amount of down time.

New Technology at Southern Surgical Arts

The newest technology available for cellulite treatment is at Southern Surgical Arts. Dr. Nease and Dr. Deal are pleased to announce the Triactive Anti-Cellulite Laser. Laser diodes penetrate skin tissue and together with the massaging action it smoothes out the cellulite-affected area and improves microcirculation. This in turn increases skin elasticity and promotes a tighter appearance.
