Abdominoplasty (tummy Tuck)

The best candidates for abdominoplasty are men or women who are in relatively good shape but are bothered by a large fat deposit or loose abdominal skin that won't respond to diet or exercise. The surgery is particularly helpful to women who, through multiple pregnancies, have stretched their abdominal muscles and skin beyond the point where they can return to normal. Loss of skin elasticity in older patients, which frequently occurs with slight obesity, can also be improved.

Patients who intend to lose a lot of weight should postpone the surgery. Also, women who plan future pregnancies should wait, as vertical muscles in the abdomen that are tightened during surgery can separate again during pregnancy. If you have scarring from previous abdominal surgery, your doctor may recommend against abdominoplasty or may caution you that scars could be unusually prominent.

Abdominoplasty can enhance your appearance and your self-confidence, but it won't necessarily change your looks to match your ideal, or cause other people to treat you differently. Before you decide to have surgery, think carefully about your expectations and discuss them with your surgeon.

360 Body Lift:

The 360º Body Lift involves removing excess fat and skin around the entire waistline, back, and abdomen. The abdominal muscles are then tightened up to reshape and tone up the midsection, lower back, and flanks area.

A body lift often includes liposuction so that your attractive contours can be accentuated. Liposuction(lipomatic or laser lipo) is a fat removal technique that has been around for decades, allowing plenty of time for the technology to be researched and perfected. Liposuction is not a weight loss solution but rather a tool used to get rid of those last bits of stubborn fat. When implemented along with a body lift, liposuction will help sculpt the body and smooth out any areas of unwanted fat.

Since the 360º Body Lift involves removing bulges and excess fat, it is a good match for those who cannot get rid of those last unwanted stores of fat through diet and exercise alone. The 360º Body Lift is a total body sculpting and reshaping procedure that results in a significant reduction of the waistline and can change the entire upper body.
