Body contouring surgery is a group of procedures designed to reshape and sculpt the body by removing excess skin, tightening tissue, and reducing stubborn fat. These procedures are often sought after major weight loss, pregnancy, or natural aging when skin loses elasticity and body proportions change.

Good candidates for body contouring are:
  • Individuals at or near their goal weight
  • Patients with loose, hanging skin 
  • Non-smokers in good overall health
  • Those with realistic expectations and a commitment to maintaining results through a healthy lifestyle
  • Those without any further plan for pregnancy 

Body contouring can significantly improve both physical comfort and body image by restoring smooth contours and defined proportions. 

Redefine Your Shape.
Restore Your Confidence.

What it is:
 Abdominoplasty, often called “tummy tuck,” removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tightens weakened abdominal muscles, which is often what causes protuberant belly shape. It's ideal for patients with loose or sagging skin due to weight loss or pregnancy with little subcutaneous fatty tissue. 


Abdominoplasty
(Tummy Tuck)

What it is:
This comprehensive procedure addresses the entire midsection—removing excess skin and fat around the abdomen, flanks, lower back, and buttocks. It’s especially beneficial for patients after massive weight loss. Extending the scar all the way around the lower abdomen and waist allows for a more complete skin tightening and also a lower body lifting effect, giving you a more smooth, contoured silhouette. 


Circumferential Body Lift
(Belt Lipectomy)

What it is:
Brachioplasty removes excess skin and fat from the upper arms, often referred to as “bat wings.” It’s ideal for patients with significant skin laxity after weight loss or aging. Traditional arm lift involves a long incision that runs from elbow to the armpit, and sometimes extends down your lateral chest (extended brachioplasty). 

Brachioplasty
(Arm Lift)

What it is:
Thighplasty removes excess skin and fat from the inner thighs. It’s commonly performed after weight loss or to improve leg contour and comfort. Most patients benefit from traditional lift with a scar that extends from inner knee level up to the groin for the most complete result. 

Thighplasty
(Thigh Lift)

What it is:
A BBL enhances the shape and size of the buttocks using fat transferred from other areas of the body (usually abdomen, flanks, or thighs). It combines liposuction with fat grafting for natural volume and improved body balance. Your safety is of utmost importance and ultrasound is used to confirm the correct tissue plane of fat injection.
 
Key benefits:
  • Fuller, lifted buttocks with your own fat
  • Improved waist-to-hip ratio
  • No implants required

Brazilian Butt Lift
(BBL)

What it is:
Liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure that removes localized fat deposits through small incisions using a cannula. It can be performed alone or alongside other procedures.

Target areas include:
  • Abdomen and flanks
  • Back and bra roll
  • Thighs 
  • Arms


Techniques offered:
  • Tumescent liposuction
  • Power-assisted liposuction (PAL)
  • 360-degree liposuction for circumferential reshaping


Key benefits:
  • Smoother body contour
  • Permanent fat removal
  • Minimal downtime


Liposuction

fAQ's

No. Liposuction is for contouring, not weight loss. It removes stubborn fat areas that don’t respond to diet and exercise.

Is liposuction a weight loss solution?

Yes—with a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Gaining significant weight or becoming pregnant may alter results.

Are results permanent?

Recovery varies by procedure. Most patients need 2–6 weeks of downtime, with full activity restrictions lasting up to 8 weeks for more extensive surgeries like body lifts.

How long is recovery?

Yes, most body contouring procedures require incisions, but they’re carefully placed to be hidden by clothing and designed to fade with time. Scar treatments can help minimize visibility.

Will there be visible scars?

Yes, certain procedures can be combined safely, such as abdominoplasty with liposuction. However, combining multiple procedures may increase total operative time and may require an overnight stay at the hospital for observation. 

Can I combine multiple procedures?

You should be at a stable weight for at least 3–6 months, ideally maintained for 6–12 months. This allows your skin and metabolism to stabilize and reduces surgical risk for best outcome. 

How long should I wait after weight loss before having body contouring?
