However, one of the biggest sacrifices of motherhood – the physical trauma of pregnancy and the resulting toll it takes on a woman’s body – often is overlooked. Now, mothers who feel self-conscious or resentful about their appearance are exploring exciting new surgical options to reverse the effects of childbearing. The Aesthetic Center for Plastic Surgery (www.mybeautifulbody.com) has introduced the mommy makeover. It is a combination of procedures that return a mother’s body to how she looked prior to pregnancy.

This is a gift that more and more mothers are... http://www.mybeautifulbody.com/en/rel/?12 noemail@mybeautifulbody.com Wed, 02 Apr 2008 14:00:00 GMT Release http://www.mybeautifulbody.com/en/rel/?10 Serve as contributing experts for book to educate patients, Be Your Best, a Comprehensive Guide to Aesthetic Plastic Surgery HOUSTON, Feb. 28, 2008 – Plastic surgery patients are demanding more answers and information than ever, and that’s a good thing.

The Aesthetic Center for Plastic Surgery (www.mybeautifulbody.com), one of the largest private plastic surgery practices in Texas, has introduced the state-of-the-art Fraxel SR1500 Laser, which can turn back the clock on aging and sun-damaged skin. Adding the latest generation of Fraxel laser treatment is part of the Aesthetic Center for Plastic Surgerys continuing effort to provide patients with the most up-to-date and innovative cosmetic enhancements.
