Common Physical Changes Observed In Postpartum Mothers In Singapore

Dr Ivan Puah, Medical Director

All the time for everyone but not a minute to spare for yourself. Dear stay-at-home mums, before you take care of others, take good care of yourself first.

Mothers

Table of Contents

At Amaris B. Clinic, we have met countless mothers who pour in all their energy into making a house a home through their hard work and sacrifices. For that and more, we take our hats off to you.

The physical journey of motherhood, with its hormonal shifts, sleepless nights, and constant giving, leaves its mark. It is the stubborn fat on your tummy and thighs that refuses to budge, the loss of volume in your breasts, and the skin that has lost its youthful firmness.

Our bodies after pregnancy

It's a frustration we hear often at Amaris B. Clinic from mothers, "No matter what I try, this fat just won't go away." 

Doing housework can burn calories but…

  • 128 calories per hour while ironing or washing dishes
  • 150 calories per hour while cooking or putting away groceries
  • 165 calories per hour doing general housework
  • 180 calories per hour loading or unloading a car

For many women after their 30s and especially after motherhood, the body has a stubborn way of holding onto fat in familiar places—the hips, thighs, and buttocks. 

This isn't a lack of willpower; it's often genetically determined, influencing where your body prefers to store fat.

The physical changes mothers bear after childbirth and breastfeeding 

For the mum struggling with a post-baby body, our signature ADR-C Breast Enhancement is a 2-in-1 solution that can help you to:

Sculpt away stubborn fat

Using MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo, developed by Dr Ivan Puah, Chairman of the Lipo Peer Review Committee Singapore, he targets and removes diet-resistant fat from your abdomen, waist, thighs, and back. 

During the procedure, he will carry out meticulous body contouring with specialised liposculpturing tools to shape and sculpt a more proportionate body, while simultaneously stimulating collagen reproduction to firm up loose skin.

Naturally restores volume loss & shape up your breasts

The extracted and purified fat is then artfully grafted to your breasts to restore volume lost after breastfeeding, improve skin texture, and provide a subtle, natural lift, all without artificial implants. 

You get a more proportioned silhouette, using your own tissue.

Lift your skin from the inside with Ultherapy Prime

Motherhood not only changes your body, but also your face. The fatigue that seems permanently etched in your features, the loss of definition along your jawline — this is where Ultherapy Prime, a popular treatment amongst mothers, offers an effective non-surgical rejuvenation and skin lift.

  • FDA-cleared treatment uses focused ultrasound energy 
  • Gently lift and tighten the skin from within
  • Smoothen lines
  • Lifts sagging skin on the neck and brow
  • Stimulates your body's own natural collagen production
  • Gradual, natural-looking results 
  • The session can be done within an hour 
  • No downtime at all
  • No cuts or injections

Think of Ultherapy Prime as a "reset" for your skin, restoring the confidence that reflects the vibrant woman you once were.

Take care of yourself first and the rest will follow

Investing in your well-being isn't a luxury; it's a renewal of the very energy you give to everyone else. So before you take care of others, dear mummies, take good care of yourself first. When you feel strong and confident in your own skin, that joy radiates out to your entire family.

You have dedicated so much to your loved ones. Now, let us help you dedicate this moment to yourself.
