Kendra Wilkinson Plans for Plastic Surgery After Baby Number Two
Kendra Wilkinson Baskett told Star that she plans to have liposuction after baby number two comes along some time in the next year.
“I didn’t get liposuction after Hank, because I knew I wanted more babies. But I will 100 percent have lipo after my second baby, because until then, I know I will never be satisfied looking in the mirror,” the former Playboy Playmate told Star.
I am so mixed on how I feel about this.
I get so very tired of the “babies ruin our bodies” talk that seems so pervasive today, but I would be a complete hypocrite if I said I was happy with everything that did happen to my body during pregnancy.
Just before I got pregnant for the first time, I was between a size two and four, had about 19 percent body fat, and was working on a six-pack. With both of my pregnancies, I put on 50 pounds and yes, I look pretty different.
But I’m not sad about those changes.
Last year, I was at the beach with two women who were talking about the ways which pregnancy “ruins” bodies and how they both planned to get plastic surgery after babies.
For me, there was a real disconnect. Neither of these women took particular pride in her physical appearance before they had children, but yet pregnancy was going to “ruin” them. As the only one of us who had babies (and the only one in a bikini), I took offense. My body is not “ruined.” Changed, yes. But not destroyed enough to require surgery.
My stomach is a little looser, it’s true. I may never get my toned abs completely back, but I’m back to my old size and I feel comfortable in my skin. I know my husband is still very attracted to me.
Of course, I also recognize that I was starting from a fit place, I maintained my fitness during both pregnancies, and I’m generally a fit person. Perhaps it was easier for me to bounce back than it might be for others, in which case I can’t fault someone for wanting to get plastic surgery.
I used to think plastic surgery was cheating and that one should work for the body they have or not get to have it. But as I get older, I do feel differently. It’s disconcerting to watch my body change as I age and I don’t even make my living off it.
If I did, I might, like Wilkinson, consider plastic surgery.
Does it give women an unfair standard to look up to? Certainly. Is it healthy to focus so much on something that is so fleeting? Probably not. But can I fault her for wanting to look her best?
I guess not.
What do you think of plastic surgery after baby?

Thanks to technological advancements in cosmetic surgery, nobody has to know that you’ve gotten it. Not your best friend, not your husband, not even your cat. Nobody.
Injectables and fillers like Botox and Restylane — which help replace or delay more invasive procedures — give patients a fresher look in mere minutes, with nary a bruise in sight.
Even more traditional plastic surgery is going incognito: New York City plastic surgeon Sharon Giese is promoting her “Natural Lift” as a gradual, discreet way to banish jowls.
A recent study conducted by Transform Cosmetic Surgery Group in the U.K. confirms that people are using these kinder, gentler versions of plastic surgery to keep their enhancements their little secret. Seventy-two percent of women hide non-surgical procedures like Botox and lip fillers from their friends and family, and more than half conceal the treatments from their partners.
And who’s even more underhanded? Men!
The study found that 81 percent of men admitted to keeping their treatments a secret. Most men are way too macho to own up to Botox or calf implants.
Not surprisingly, liposuction was the procedure most often hidden. Are you thinking of all the women you know who’ve lost weight in strategic places and credit kick-boxing and pilates to their newly svelte figures? We certainly are.
And patients don’t just want to keep these enhancements from friends, many of the clinic’s patients are wary of the charges coming up on their bank statements, presumably so that their significant others will never know.
An employee of the clinic told the Daily Mail, “A patient who came to us for Botox and lip fillers last month asked the practitioner if there would be any red marks or bruising as she had a date with her boyfriend that evening and she didn’t want him to know that she had any treatments.”
Would you hide plastic surgery or non-surgical procedures from your significant other? Would they notice?
Another plastic surgery phenomenon? Post-divorce vengeance plastic surgery.
