For many couples who meet in their prime, get married, have children and raise a family together, time and age can take a toll on their bodies. Heather and David Robertson recognized how life and time had changed their physical appearances, and they wanted to do something to change their images, so they decided to have cosmetic surgery procedures, together. For both, this decision made sense. They had done most everything else together for the last 18 years, like: marriage, four children, raising a family, taking vacations, and this was just a new mutual venture, to cosmetically restore features that changed shape, over time. After having four children, Heather elected to have a tummy tuck, while her husband, David, decided on chin lift surgery. Couples seeking to have cosmetic surgery together is becoming more common, according to Dr. Anthony Youn, a board certified plastic surgeon located in Michigan.

Having a baby is a joyous occasion. But, trying to come to grips with how our bodies change, during the process…isn’t always quite as elating. Many women rush to join ‘boot camp-styled’ work out programs that could, in the long run, permanently injure their pelvic floors. It is understandable to want to bring our bodies back to ‘Pre-baby form’ – but, there are safer, healthier and more effective means of achieving our goals. We discuss this, and the recent pressure for moms to ‘Spring back’, after childbirth.

Is it me..or is it Spanx?

A permanent solution for a flatter tummy

Sara Blakely, the owner of Spanx, has just been named the youngest self-made female billionaire by Forbes. What an achievement!

If you have been thinking you’d like a flatter stomach; schedule a consultation with a local Tummy Tuck specialist…and feel comfortable in your OWN skin.
