Body Surgery

Abdominoplasty or a 'tummy tuck' is cosmetic or reconstructive surgery. It is used to tighten muscles that have become loose or split following pregnancy, or to remove fat and extra loose skin from the abdomen after massive weight loss.

In most cases, abdominoplasty will:

• Restore weakened or separated muscles
• Help alleviate pain
• Improve bladder function
• Reduce itching and skin infections caused by excess skin
• Change the shape and tone of the abdomen to create a firmer and smoother profile.
• Abdominoplasty is not a substitute for weight loss or exercise.

A Mummy Makeover is the combination of multiple surgeries that many women post pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding require to rectify lose or sagging skin, stretching, muscle separation and other concerns. Typically a Mummy Makeover includes abdominoplasty/tummy Tuck, a breast reduction/lift or augmentation, and targeted liposuction. In many instances these surgeries can be combined to reduce healing and recovery time and also cost.

Lipotransfer, also known as fat transfer, involves the removal of fat from one part of the body and transferring it to another. Patients typically have fat transferred to the buttocks or the breasts. The process begins with liposuction in areas where there is an excess supply of fat. The fat is purified and injected into the area that is about to be enhanced. Lipotransfer is beneficial in that it uses your fat; it’s natural, and you are less likely to have a reaction. Our Dr''s can provide a consultation to determine if lipotransfer is suitable and a safe option. You need to consider what type of results you want. to achieve and the risks associated.
