Body Procedures
Body contouring surgery at Carolina Plastic Surgery can include a variety of techniques designed to sculpt and reshape areas of the body by removing excess skin and fat. Whether targeting the abdomen, thighs, arms, or other regions, procedures such as liposuction and tummy tuck surgery can help achieve a smoother, firmer appearance. The best approach depends on your unique concerns — some patients may need a combination of techniques, while others can achieve their goals with a single procedure. Each patient needs to receive a very individualized consultation to determine the procedure most suitable for them.
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is ideal for individuals with loose, sagging abdominal skin or weakened abdominal muscles, often due to pregnancy, significant weight fluctuations, or previous surgeries. You may also desire a tummy tuck if you are unable to tighten your abdomen with exercise. This procedure can tighten and reshape the abdominal wall while removing excess skin and fat, resulting in a firmer, flatter midsection.
Body Contouring After Major Weight Loss
Significant weight loss can leave behind loose skin and stubborn pockets of fat that may not respond to diet and exercise. Our body contouring procedures, such as lower body lift, arm lift, and thigh lift, can help smooth and tone these areas to reveal the results of your hard work. With a customized treatment plan, we can remove excess skin and refine your contours for a firmer, more proportional figure.
Brazilian Butt Lift: Fat Grafting to the Buttocks
Fat grafting to the buttocks is essentially what is known as the Brazilian butt lift, which can enhance fullness, shape, and contour in the backside. Liposuction is first performed on another body area to harvest excess fat cells, which will then be processed for injection into precise areas of the buttocks. This can ultimately add volume to the buttocks and give them a more youthful appearance while enhancing the “curves” of one’s body profile. Additionally, fat grafting is known to provide many patients with natural-looking results that last long into the future.
