Abdominoplasty or Tummy TuckAesthetic surgery of the abdomen, also called abdominoplasty or "tummy tuck," is designed to firm and smooth the abdomen. The procedure removes excess abdominal skin and may also reduce fat and tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall. Some conditions are inherited. In other instances, substantial weight loss may cause abdominal skin to become flaccid. Abdominoplasty can tighten muscles that have been separated and weakened by pregnancy, and may improve the appearance of stretch marks. |

LiposuctionLiposuction or lipoplasty is a procedure for removal of localized fat deposits from specific areas of the body. It is well suited for women and men who are of relatively normal weight but have difficulty losing localized fat deposits. Those do not disappear with weight loss or excercise. |

Body LiftRelatively recently the importance of skin laxity and collapse of the outer hip, thigh and buttock regions has been recognized. In such cases, just as removing the excess skin and fat from the front of the body (abdominoplasty) makes sense, so does removal of excess skin and fat from the sides and back of the body. This is the concept of the "body lift." |

Arm LiftAn arm lift is the solution for what is commonly known as the “batwing deformity.” During this operation, a surgeon removes the loose skin and tissue and sews it back up again. The incision is typically a long T- shaped one that extends from just beneath the underarm all the way to the underside of the elbow. |

Thigh LiftThigh lifts are often a very effective procedure to help tighten the loose skin in the thighs and buttocks area often seen after massive weight loss. The procedure does not change the texture of the skin but helps to pull the skin up making it more taught and therby helping to make the crepiness and wrinkles less noticeable. |

LabioplastyLabioplasty, often spelled labiaplasty, is a vagina surgery, which involves reduction of the labia. The popularity of Vaginal Rejuvenation (vaginal surgery) has skyrocketed over the last few years. Public awareness of these procedures has increased because of the frequent articles in women's magazines such as Elle and New Woman. |
