Body Contouring

We tend, at times, to talk about aesthetic body surgery as a separate entity, apart from breast surgery, even though it too involves surgery from the neck down. Recently we have seen an explosion in the number of Body Contouring procedures done each year.  This was not always the case.  Thirty five years ago, when someone thought of having Cosmetic surgery, it usually meant a Facelift or Rhinoplasty, and then mostly for the affluent.  That has all changed.  From 1997-2010, Liposuction went up almost 70% and Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty 320%.  (Breast Lift, described in another section increased an amazing 510%!)  Women today are more out there and active than ever before.  Body contouring surgery can include anything from liposuction to a mini-tummy tuck, a full mommy makeover after childbirth or a tummy tuck after weight loss. Body Contouring is another area that can include men as well as women. For many men, it’s commonly that “spare tire” area and can be one of the most stubborn. It can range from people that just want to fit and feel better in their clothing, to those wanting to get back into a swimsuit and out on the beach. It can also include those who may already be at their target weight or some who have great muscle tone from regular exercise, and yet still have some loose skin issues to deal with. There are others that still may be just a bit short of their target, and that is where we can counsel together and decide the right approach and timing to reach those personal goals that you have for yourself. It’s about you feeling the best you can, in your own body…
