The pictures will help us determine if you need a standard, extended or circumferential tummy tuck, as well as a breast lift or a breast augmentation alone.
We may need to schedule two surgeries if performing all these procedures exceeds 5 to 6 hours.
Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck)
Currently, there are many cosmetic surgical procedures to improve the body’s shape.
In this case removing excess skin.
It is a very common cosmetic surgery procedure. Many women opt for this process after several pregnancies that have left sagging skin in the lower abdomen called “apron effect”, and after unsuccessfully trying different diets or exercises.
We offer very positive results in removing the “apron” and smooth the abdomen. It can be done in conjunction with liposuction in those cases where there is also excess fat in the waist, hips, and inner thighs.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, which is called the epidural.
This is performed by placing the anesthesia in the patient’s back. After sedation the patient feels no discomfort and lasts about two or three hours. The surgeon makes an incision in the bikini line to remove the excess skin, then performs the muscle attachment to the midline and this will help shape the waist and flatten the stomach. After abdominal surgery the patient should remain in the hospital overnight. We recommend two weeks off work and avoid heavy lifting for six weeks.
It is normal for the skin to be bruised after surgery, but these bruising should disappear within one week. Always consider that the end result will be seen after 40 days.
There are different types of tummy tucks: standard, extended or circumferential. The incision will vary according to the amount of excess skin.
We ask our patients for pictures for a more accurate quote.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes fat from your body using suction. This surgery is very popular among women for whom diet and exercise have shown limited improvement. Working on an area of the body is called liposuction, working on several areas of the body is called liposculpture. It is important to remember the purpose of liposuction is not weight loss per se, even though we can eliminate between 5 and 10 liters of fat. The purpose is to give the body an aesthetic and harmonious figure. Liposuction and / or liposculpture is performed with epidural anesthesia and sedation. Depending on the amount of fat that is to be removed and the areas to be treated, you may be able to go home the same day or have to stay in the hospital overnight. The liposuction equipment that we have today is very advanced and the precise extraction of fat makes it easier for the surgeon to perform an excellent work. During the intervention a cannula is connected to a suction machine and extracts the fat from the selected areas. During the process, the amount of fat removed is constantly measured. After surgery you will be asked to wear a special garment designed to reduce inflammation and tighten the skin. You can wear this garment under clothing. It is normal for the covered area to become swollen or show bruising after surgery. The appearance varies depending on the patient and depends to some extent on the body’s reaction to the procedure and the amount of fat removed. In general, most of bruising and swelling disappeared within two or three weeks. It is recommended to avoid excessive exercise for about six weeks and be off work for seven to fourteen days. Various areas can be treated in one intervention. When the inflammations and bruises are gone, you will be encouraged
to exercise to optimize results.
Brazilian but lift
We can improve the shape and contour of the buttocks in different ways.
In cases in which there is excess skin in the lower back and at the bottom of the buttocks, the excess is removed in order to lift the buttocks.
Another way is to perform fat grafting. Liposuction is perfomed first. The fat is then injected to give you firmer and more contoured buttocks.
Arm lift
An arm lift, also known as brachioplasty, reshapes the under portion of the upper arm from the underarm region to the elbow.
Incision length and pattern during arm lift surgery depend on the amount and location of excess skin to be removed, as well as the best judgment of your plastic surgeon.
Incisions are generally placed on the inside of the arm or on the back of the arm, depending on the surgeon’s preference, and may extend from the underarm (axilla) to just above the elbow. Excess fat may be directly excised or treated with liposuction.
Depending on your specific condition, incisions may be more limited. Then, underlying supportive tissue is tightened and reshaped with internal sutures. Finally, the skin is smoothed over the new contour of your arm.
Thigh Lift
A thigh lift can reshape the thighs by reducing excess skin and fat, resulting in smoother skin and better contours for the thighs and lower body.
Thigh lift surgery reshapes the thighs by reducing excess skin and fat, resulting in smoother skin and better-proportioned contours of the thighs and lower body.
If fitness and weight control efforts have not achieved your goals for a body that is firmer, more youthful-looking and more proportionate to your overall body image, a surgical lift may be right for you.
Thigh lifts are not intended strictly for the removal of excess fat. Liposuction alone can remove excess fat deposits where skin has good elasticity and is able to naturally conform to new body contours.
In cases where skin elasticity is poor, a thigh lift along with liposuction may be recommended.
