But is liposuction a good idea only seven weeks after giving birth?
According toMary Jane Minkin, MD, a practicing gynecologist and professor atYale School of Medicine, the answer is no — largely because it just wouldn’t be effective. “Of course I would never encourage this!” she tells PEOPLE.
During pregnancy, a woman’s body gains weight “diffusely” so it’s all over the body, Dr. Minkin says, whereas liposuctiontargets weight in one specific partand it’s impractical to do it everywhere. What’s more, the stretched skin lots of moms have after pregnancy will not “disappear” with liposuction.
