Body contouring

Losing a significant amount of weight is an exciting and satisfying achievement. Unfortunately, weight loss and bariatric surgery often leave behind unsightly loose and sagging skin. Body liposuction and contouring can be used to help.

Often after you experience significant weight loss, the skin and tissue lack elasticity and cannot conform to your reduced body size. Post-bariatric plastic surgery and body liposuction can help improve the shape and tone of your skin and tissue, giving you the body you’ve been dreaming of.

If you experience any of the following, body liposuction and contouring may be the answer for you:

• Your upper arms sag and appear loose and full
• Your breasts have flattened and drooped
• Your abdominal area extend around the sides and into the lower back area, resulting in an apron-like drape
• Your buttocks, groin and thighs sag

The plastic surgeons at Dignity Health Medical Foundation have a new Verjú™ laser that can help smooth out and improve the contour of your "problem areas," and in some instances even help with the appearance of cellulite. We also have doctors ready to consult with you before your treatment—because we care about your overall wellbeing as much as you do.

It’s hard to make time stand still, and sometimes life leaves us wishing we could get back that younger body, especially after pregnancy, illness, or weight changes. Here are some opportunities to do just that. Today’s technology offers many opportunities to improve and enhance your figure, giving you that younger looking body. You can combine multiple techniques to offset the changes on your body such as breast lift, breast augmentation, and tummy tuck.

Men are increasingly seeking procedures to improve their overall appearance so that they too can recapture that youthful physique. We offer many procedures designed to reduce excess fat and skin in the trunk and chest area. Body contouring procedures such as liposuction and abdominoplasty can be combined with reduction of the breast area to create a younger looking masculine body.
