Postpartum journey

What is postpartum?

It refers to a period after childbirth. In most women, this period lasts between four to six weeks.

It’s during this phase that you adjust emotionally and physically to your new role.

Some women can become sad and overly tired during the first few days. This condition lasts approximately three to four days. Many know it as ‘baby blues.’

When it continues for an extended period, it’s known as postpartum depression (PPD). Also called ‘postnatal depression.’

PPD, also a mental condition, affects one out of seven women. It’s believed that a hormone imbalance is the reason for this ailment.

During pregnancy, your hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, are extremely high.After giving birth, these hormone levels return to normal. The sudden drop can result in depression and anxiety.

They’re either mild or severe and can affect your day-to-day life. In some cases, you may even feel disconnected from your baby.

We’ve listed some symptoms to look out for below.

• Excessive crying and sadness
• Sleeping unusually more or less
• Feeling guilty or worthless
• Finds no pleasure in things you previously enjoyed
• Consumed with thoughts of self-harm or harming your baby

Another cause for PPD is when your thyroid level drops after the delivery. This decrease can trigger symptoms of depression. A blood test is the best way to make a diagnosis.

The earlier specialists diagnose PPD, the sooner treatment can start.

The postpartum journey affects your psychological well-being and your physical condition, too. Your skin may develop blotchy spots or discoloration. Other conditions include acne, stretch marks, and sagging skin.

These all develop because of hormonal and metabolic changes and lack of sleep.

While this may magnify your mental condition, choosing a good skin treatment can ease it. Morpheus8 could be a beneficial addition to any woman’s postpartum journey.

Let’s have a look at what morpheus8 is.

What is Morpheus8?

Morpheus8 is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure. The process involves needling combined with radiofrequency (RF) technology. It’s also known as a non-surgical facelift.

As it penetrates the skin, heat stimulates the production of collagen. It’s unique, as it pierces multiple layers of skin simultaneously. At the same time, it improves blood flow.

It’s one of the popular emerging technologies. Working from the inside out, it’s a safe and effective way of healing and restoring your skin. Suitable for all skin tones.

Are you left with stretch marks after losing weight gained during pregnancy? You may also have some skin hyperpigmentation (discoloration) common in pregnancy.

Allow Morpheus8 to give you and the postpartum journey you’re on, the restoration needed. It also improves skin laxity and is beneficial for sagging skin. Tightening the area around your stomach.

You can expect impressive results from this advanced skin therapy.

Besides assisting women after childbirth, Morpeus8 can also treat dark under eye circles. A 2014 study found it effective in treating acne scars.

Benefits of Morpheus8 during postpartum

During pregnancy, your skin can produce extra pigmentation. This condition is cosmetic and has no impact on your baby.

You’ll find your skin becoming darker in certain areas. Sun exposure can amplify this discoloration.

Many know this as hyperpigmentation. It may fade on its own during your postpartum phase. With no intervention, it’s uncertain how long it will take to return to normal.

Traditionally, women used topical creams and gels to help improve their appearance. The solution may vary and not always be very effective.

Using Morpheus8 during and after the postpartum journey can restore skin much faster. It’ll fade the discoloration to its more natural pigmentation. The effects are also longer lasting.

Stretch marks, fairly common in most postpartum women, create an uneven skin surface. Morpheus8 can even this out, leaving it much smoother.

With this treatment, you can feel more confident in your skin. You no longer have to cover facial blemishes with unnecessary layers of make-up.

There’s also no need to cover your body and hide unwanted scarring.

Morpheus8 treatment plans and recovery

At LIVV Natural we start your treatment plan with a consultation with one of our specialists. They’ll discuss your medical history with you and listen to your expectations.

The various treatment options differ depending on your aesthetic needs.

You may require a few sessions of Morpheus8 during and after the postpartum journey. We recommend you wait four weeks between treatments.

More severe skin conditions might need an alternative intervention, such as surgery.

Morpheus8 is a non-invasive procedure that doesn’t require much downtime. You can easily fit it into your busy schedule as a new mom.

You may experience some discomfort during and after treatment. The affected area could display some redness and slight swelling.

It’s important to avoid the sun post procedure.

While Morpheus8 is a safe procedure, it’s best to consult your doctor first. The topical local anesthetic used could pose a risk for breastfeeding moms.

Medication taken after the procedure may also interfere with lactating.

To ensure a safe and effective treatment, consider the points below.

• Before your procedure, avoid skin irritation medication. Stay out of direct sunlight and steer clear of suntanning at least four weeks before the time.
• A few days before your treatment, reduce caffeine and alcohol intake. The same applies to fatty acids and vitamins.
• After the procedure, maintain good hygiene by keeping the area clean. Don’t massage the area and if any scabs appear, allow them to fall off naturally. Avoid unnecessary contact with this region.
• If you had a treatment in your facial area, only apply makeup 48 hours after. Use lukewarm water when washing and a mild cleanser.

Morpheus8 and your postpartum care plan

The purpose of postpartum care is to ensure that both mom and baby remain healthy. It includes physical, emotional, and mental well-being.

Research has shown care and support during the postpartum period is vital. Mothers who had gestational diabetes must have a screening after four weeks.

The same applies to those diagnosed with hypertensive disorder during pregnancy. They should have their blood pressure checked within seven days postpartum.

Mother and infant need to visit their necessary healthcare professionals regularly. These check-ups are vital, especially if there were complications at birth.

Here are other self care aspects for mom.

• Resting as much as you can when it’s possible.
• Following the doctor’s recommendations.
• Regular exercising without exerting yourself.
• Following a balanced diet.
• Spending quality time with loved ones.
• Allowing others to assist when needed.
• Join a new mom’s support group.

When it comes to skin care, there are some things you can do to improve and maintain a healthy-looking skin.

Below are a few things to consider:

• Increase your collagen. Breastfeeding can reduce these levels. It’s a protein responsible for your skin’s elasticity. It’s also vital to your bones and muscles.
• Vitamin rich supplement. These vitamins can boost your skin’s condition. It can help reduce the discoloration and is good nourishment for nails and hair, too.
• Body creams. A butter based cream can help hydrate the epidermis. It can even reduce the appearance of stretch marks. These products might clear it completely.
• Scalp and hair care. The hormonal imbalance during pregnancy can cause your hair to appear oily. Caring for your scalp is another skin care practice to consider.

These options can enhance and improve the condition of your skin. Morpheus8 is beneficial as it has longer lasting results.
