Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

Description:

Generally referred to as a “tummy tuck”, abdominoplasty removes excess skin and fat from the abs area. The abdominal muscles are also tightened and this combination results in a flatter abdomen and an improved waistline, for both men and women.

Some patients who have lost weight may feel like they have a bulge in their lap when they sit down. Women, in particular, do not like the looseness and the stretch marks that result from pregnancies or dramatic weight loss.

In these situations, a tummy tuck procedure can provide dramatic changes in the waist line and abdominal profile. This creates a flat, tight and muscle toned abdomen that can be very satisfying and important as the stomach is the center of the body.

Surgery Details:

Abdominoplasty surgery, on average, take about 3 hours and is performed with the patient under general anesthesia. Most patients feel tired for several days and many will want to take one or two weeks off from work.

Average Price/Cost (US):

$2000-$7500

Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)

Arm lift surgery, also known as “brachioplasty” removes excess skin and fat from the arms. This can be combined with liposuction of the arms to reduce the arm fullness even further. This procedure is popular among patients who have lost a lot of weight in the arm area or patients who are older and have stretch marks in their arms.. However, even patients who have not lost a lot of weight but have “bat wings” or loose, sagging skin of the upper arms are candidates for brachioplasty surgery.

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and takes about 2-3 hours. Patients may go home the same day. The incision can run from the armpit to the elbow. The scar is placed in a relatively inconspicuous place on the inner arm, however it will be visible when wearing short sleeves or naked, so be sure to check with your doctor regarding your skin ethnicity and scar recovery propensity. The arms are swollen for a few days and most people will want to take one or two weeks off from work.

Average Price/Cost (US): $1500-$5000

Thigh Lift Surgery (Thighplasty)

A thigh lift, AKA Thighplasty is performed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper legs. Candidates for thighplastery usually possess loose, droopy skin in the thigh area right under the buttocks after significant weight loss due to diet and exercise. Thighplasty is often combined with procedures including breast lift, abdominoplasty, or arm lift to help re-gain a sense of proportion of the patient’s body.

Inner thigh lifts are performed with the patient under general anesthesia. The incision often runs from the groin crease along the inner aspect of the thigh down to around the knee. The scar will be visible in shorts. The legs may be swollen, bruised, and tight for several days after the initial surgery. Again, most patients plan to take about two weeks off from work.

An outer thigh lift is often accomplished as part of a “belt lipectomy”, in which and incision may be made circumferentially. This allows lifting of the outer thighs while also reducing the excess skin and fat of the flanks, back, and abdomen. Liposuction of the outer thighs may be performed at the same time. This operation is performed under general anesthesia and requires admission to the surgical facility for at least one night. Most people will want to take about 3 weeks off from work after this type of surgery.

Massive weight loss, natural aging, and heredity often result in loosening of the skin around the thighs, buttocks, and hips. Thigh lift surgery provides firmer and more attractive upper legs by removing extra skin and underlying fatty tissue, and a sense of a firmer and more youthful body.

Average Price/Cost (US): $2000-5000

Mini Tummy Tuck (Mini-Abdominoplasty)

For patients who are not extremely overweight, a mini-abdominoplasty, or “mini tummy tuck”, is the best option to tighten abdominal muscles for an improved waistline. The procedure uses a short incision to eliminate excess skin and fatty tissue below the belly button. A tightening of the loose skin and fat of the abdominal wall, particularly around the navel is performed through the controlled removal and elevation of skin and fat in this area. This type of procedure works best for patients whose primary concern is a flatter and tighter lower abdomen.

Average Price/Cost (US): $1500-$6000

Brazilian Butt Lift

The Brazilian butt life is a cosmetic surgery procedure that uses liposuction to harvest fat from the patient’s arms, legs or abdomen and then place that fat into the buttocks with a series of injections done six weeks apart to create a shapelier, rounded butt. The surgery for the Brazilian butt lift is a alternative to getting actual buttocks implants, as it uses the patient’s own fat instead of implants..

As one may guess, liposuction to harvest fat now has duel intent, one for reducing fat and another for redistributing that fat into the buttocks. The lower body (lower back, stomach and thighs) may be liposuctioned to make the patient’s buttocks become more prominent.

Average Price/Cost (US): $2000-$15,000 ; depends heavily on whether other liposuction procedures are being performed at the same time

Chin Liposuction

Liposuction and double chin surgery is very effective for eliminating and getting rid of excess fat and or loose, sagging skin of the upper neck area. Facelifts and chin tucks were the primary types of chin surgery used to get rid of a double chin before liposuction for the chin was available. Both are effective, but newer methods are associated with many fewer side effects, a much more rapid recovery, and far less scarring than earlier methods. Liposuction has revolutionized double chin surgery in that is can easily remove the double chin fat. And significant tightening of chin and neck skin naturally accompanies the healing process after liposuction.

Double chin liposuction can be done under local anesthesia, without general anesthesia sedation. The tumescent technique has become the treatment of choice for eliminating double chin, that is, deposits of fat under the chin.

After chin liposuction surgery, most patients take 2-3 days off work. A special garment is worn for a few days in the chin area to put pressure on the wound.

Face, Neck, and Chin Liposuction

Facial liposuction is most often performed with a micro-cannula using a tumescent technique that involves injecting fluid into the targeted area while suctioning the fat out. In some cases, liposuction of the chin, neck, and jowls, as well as other facial liposuction procedures, can have better results in these problem areas than other surgical techniques. Facial liposuction can also be more desirable because it minimizes scarring when compared to other surgical techniques. Facial liposuction is usually performed on or below the chin and jaw line to reduce the appearance of sagging skin in the neck, a double-chin, or hanging jowls.
