Mommy Makeover + BodyTone

Mommy Makeover + BodyTone

One of the main goals of an abdominoplasty (commonly referred to as a tummy tuck) is to tighten the muscles of the belly wall, often loosened by pregnancy or weight gain. This stretching and separation of the muscles is called rectus diastasis or diastasis recti. These muscles are key to the abdominal “core,” providing strength and stability to the entire body. This Tummy tuck procedure works to repair the alignment and positioning of your abdominal muscles, but still leaves patients with a weakened abdominal core. Post-surgical abdominal strengthening is critical for maximizing your overall results.

Get Your Body Reactivated with BodyTone

Rebuilding core muscle strength through exercise can be extremely limited post-surgery. The BodyTone is a unique muscle strengthening device that uses bioelectric energy pulses to exercise different muscle groups, jumpstarting the muscle strengthening process.

This treatment non-invasively works to strengthen weakened muscles with better coordination, enabling patients to fast track their recovery process. Furthermore, BodyTone begins to re-educate your body to properly activate muscles previously misaligned or mispositioned malpositioned.

How Body Tone Works

BodyTone uses a series of bioelectric waveform patterns to cause the muscle confusion necessary to dramatically strengthen and tone your muscles.This is incredibly beneficial after a procedure like a Mommy Makeover and abdominoplasty, where rebuilding your core strength through traditional exercise can be limited due to post-op recovery. The BodyTone’s bioelectric energy pulses simulate a heavy workout by twisting, flexing, and contracting specific muscle groups, generating approximately 20,000 muscle contractions within 30 minutes, BodyTone yields a stronger core in the treatment area.

I use BodyTone to help maximize the renewed function patients receive from a Mommy Makeover(Tummy Tuck) procedure. This device aids in continuous strengthening and re-education of the core muscles necessary for jumpstarting a patient’s recovery.

Benefits

Advance the restorative form and function provided by a mommy makeover procedure with enhancements such as:

• Increased Core Strength
• Enhanced abdominal function
• Fast-tracked recovery process
• Muscle re-education

As the treatment begins, patients feel their muscles contract. The sensation is not painful but can be intense. This sensation is momentary for each pulse, and pulses are repeated throughout the session which lasts for about 30-minutes, stimulating around 20,000 muscle contractions. After the treatment has concluded, you can expect minimal soreness around the treatment area which should subside within 72 hours.
