Perhaps you have heard of mommy makeover cosmetic surgery, a set of cosmetic surgery procedures designed to address the common aesthetic concerns that many mothers share after pregnancy and breastfeeding. For example, mommy makeovers typically include breast augmentation and / or breast lift surgery to restore more voluminous, perkier breasts as well as tummy tuck surgery to remove loose excess abdominal skin and repair greatly damaged or separated abdominal muscles for a toned tummy.
However, are you familiar with “daddy do-over” surgery? In contrast to mommy makeover surgery, which typically involves a staple set of procedures (i.e., breast surgery and abdominoplasty), “daddy do-over” is an all-inclusive term used to describe male plastic surgery involving more than one cosmetic procedure.
Aesthetic Concerns That Daddy Do-Over Surgery Can Address
Dads have aesthetic concerns, too! Often, the late nights up with an infant or the anxiety suffered when a teenager learns to drive can cause dads to develop premature signs of aging, such as wrinkles and sagging facial tissues. When this happens, fathers request facial rejuvenation surgery in their daddy do-overs, including brow lift, eyelid lift or facelift surgery, or a combination of these.
In addition, many fathers gain weight over the years whether it is due to the emotional stress of raising children or simply the natural aging process. It gets harder to eliminate stubborn deposits of fat, even when maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine. Men who are bothered by excess fat typically opt to include liposuction in their daddy do-over surgery. The sides of the abdomen (“love handles”), front of the abdomen, neck / chin area and thighs are just a few of the areas that men often treat with the liposuction component of their daddy do-over.
