Tennis star, Serena Williams who is now a caring mother, has embraced her body image after giving birth.
Through an honest Instagram post, Serena shared her journey of self-care, highlighting a modern procedure to address her birthing scars.
The 42-year-old shared an Instagram video of herself getting a radio frequency skin tightening treatment on her stomach at a spa in Paris, acknowledging that it was difficult to ignore her children to care for her own needs.
“Being ok to take time for myself is something I have always struggled with,” Williams wrote.
Serena revealed it was her caring friends that surprised her with a day at the prestigious Maison Lutétia spa.
Aware of her concerns about her postpartum body, they planned a day filled with relaxation and renewal just for her.
“She knows after 2 babies I have been self-conscious of my tummy. I just had to post this video she took. The results have been amazing,” Williams wrote.
“I can see progress with my skin going back to normal and my confidence coming back. Listen my body will never be the same but neither will I cause I have 2 amazing lights in my life”, she added.
The radio frequency treatment involves using an electromagnetic device that generates heat to stimulate the production of collagen, elastin and new skin cells, lifting sagging skin, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
