What is Body Contouring?
Body Contouring encompasses a range of surgical procedures designed to reshape and redefine specific areas of the body. These procedures address concerns like excess fat, loose skin, and volume loss. By strategically removing fat, tightening tissues, and sculpting specific areas, Body Contouring can dramatically improve your body shape and boost your confidence.
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck tightens the abdominal muscles and removes excess skin to create a flatter, more toned stomach. It is ideal for those with loose skin or stubborn belly fat after significant weight loss or pregnancy.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes unwanted fat deposits from areas like the abdomen, thighs, arms, and flanks. It can be combined with other procedures, like a tummy tuck, for a more comprehensive contoured effect.
Arm Lift
An Arm Lift addresses sagging skin and excess fat in the upper arms, creating a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Thigh Lift
The Thigh Lift procedure improves the appearance of the thighs by removing excess skin and tightening underlying tissues. It can address sagging skin, inner thigh laxity, and overall thigh shape.
Breast Lift
A Breast Lift can lift and reshape sagging breasts to restore a more youthful and perky appearance.
Breast Reduction
A Breast Reduction reduces the size and weight of breasts, alleviating discomfort and improving body proportion.
Breast Augmentation with Implants
A Breast Augmentation with Implants can enhance breast size and fullness for a more balanced and confident silhouette.
Renuvion
Renuvion is an innovative technology that uses ablative radiofrequency energy to tighten tissues and improve skin quality. It can be combined with liposuction for enhanced tightening and smoother results.
Benefits of Body Contouring
Body Contouring isn't just about sculpting your shape (although that toned physique is pretty awesome). It's about boosting your confidence to new levels. Imagine slipping into clothes that hug your curves in all the right places and feeling incredible in your own skin. Plus, say goodbye to those stubborn fat pockets that diet and exercise just can't touch. Body Contouring helps you achieve the results you've been working so hard for.
Am I a candidate for Body Contouring?
These procedures are ideal for people who are at a healthy weight but struggle with localized pockets of fat or loose skin. During your consultation, Dr. Bartholomew will discuss your goals, medical history, and overall health to determine if Body Contouring is right for you.
Some common concerns addressed by Body Contouring include:
- Loose skin after weight loss or pregnancy
- Stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise
- Uneven body contours
- Sagging breasts
- Excess skin in the arms or thighs
Better Together: Renuvion and Liposuction
While all of our Body Contouring procedures can achieve remarkable results on their own, combining Renuvion with liposuction can offer even greater benefits. Renuvion helps tighten tissues during the liposuction procedure, leading to smoother contours and potentially faster recovery times.
