In this auspicious Year of the Dragon, many are eager to embrace the joys of pregnancy and welcome their own Dragon Babies. However, pregnancy brings numerous changes to the mother’s skin and body. In this article, let us guide you through the changes to expect before, during, and after pregnancy, empowering you to conquer them with confidence!

Before Pregnancy: Preparing Your Body

It’s crucial to prepare your body for the journey ahead of conception. Strengthen your pelvic floor muscles with Emsella, a technology equivalent to 11,200 Kegel exercises in just 30 minutes. Keeping your pelvic muscles as healthy as possible helps decrease the damage these muscles experience under the strain of carrying a growing child. Not just that, it also helps with quick recovery after pregnancy.

Additionally, Exilis Ultra Femme aids in vaginal rejuvenation, promoting vaginal health and potentially increasing your chances of conceiving. This treatment not only tightens the vagina but also keeps the “fire” alive in the bedroom.

Don’t neglect your skin during this stage, as hormonal changes can lead to acne, increased melanin production, and very dry skin. Consider skin boosters to maintain skin health, with a variety of options available at The Retreat Clinic.

During Pregnancy: Nurturing Your Skin

During pregnancy, hormonal fluctuations can cause various skin issues, such as acne, pigmentation, and eczema. It’s essential to take extra care of your skin during this time. We typically don’t recommend injections, skin boosters, or lasers during pregnancy but you can still pamper your skin with gentle, natural treatments like medical facials.

After-Pregnancy: Embracing Changes

After giving birth, your body undergoes significant changes and you will see the appearance of postpartum issues such as diasistis recti, mummy pooch, stretch marks, cellulite, and saggy skin. The Retreat Clinic offers a range of #BodyByRetreat treatments to help you regain your body confidence.

When it comes to stretch marks, they can be treated with lasers and polynucleotides. These two treatments help to stimulate collagen in the body and increase skin elasticity. Mummy pooch, diasistis recti, and tummy slimming concerns can be addressed with treatment combinations such as Coolsculpting, VanquishMe, Emtone, Emsculpt, and Exilis.

Additionally, pregnancy can bring about urinary incontinence due to having weak pelvic floor muscles. Treatments like Emsella can help strengthen pelvic floor muscles, while Exilis Ultra Femme can help with vaginal tightening.

 

Nurture Yourself as You Nurture Life

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but it can take a toll on your body. By understanding and addressing the changes that come with each stage, you can embark on this journey with confidence and grace.
