What is Body Contouring?
Changes and life events such as weight gain, aging, pregnancy, and even genetics can result in sagging skin and excess pockets of fat. At some point, you may find you cannot sculpt your body contours the way you want with diet and exercise alone. Certain areas of our bodies harbor fat no matter what exercise routines we adopt. In the case of loose, drooping skin, exercise and diet cannot eliminate it or restore its elasticity.
Body contouring surgery lets you change the shape, lines, and appearance of different areas of your body. Using an experienced artist’s eye, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Michell Cohn can adapt body contouring procedures to your individual goals. This surgery can remove and re-position fat and skin to create the body shape you want; defining the contours made by your body, such as the line of your hips or the flatness of your abdominal area. Body contouring includes:
- Liposuction
- Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)
- Arm lift (brachioplasty)
- Body lift
- Buttock lift
- Scar revision
