Body Contouring

Liposuction (or suction-assisted lipectomy) has become one of the most common cosmetic surgery procedures performed today. Proven to be safe with minimal scarring and outstanding results, liposuction is the preferred method for removing fat from the, thighs, buttocks and midriff, as well as areas of the face, neck and arms. Liposuction is not an alternative to weight reduction, but can be very effective in removing fat from areas that do not respond to diet and exercise programs.

Suction-assisted lipectomy is performed by a doctor on an outpatient basis. A narrow tube (cannula) is inserted through a small incision. The doctor then manipulates the cannula, which is connected to a strong vacuum, breaking up fatty areas and suctioning out the fat. View before & after Liposuction photos.

Unlike liposuction, which targets the fat, a tummy tuck or abdominoplasty is performed primarily for the removal of skin looseness due to pregnancy or weight loss. An incision is made within the "panty line" of the lower abdomen and from this incision the abdominal skin is lifted away from the muscular abdominal wall beneath. The redundant skin is pulled downwards and the excess skin is trimmed away.

The procedure is done mainly under a general anesthetic on either an outpatient or inpatient basis. View before & after Tummy Tuck photos.
