Losing weight can seem like you’re on a never ending roller coaster— some days are easy to eat healthy whereas other days are a bit more difficult (can you say office donuts?). If you are trying to lose weight but just can’t seem to get rid of the excess fat around your upper arms, upper thighs, abdomen, or buttocks, then it may be time to consider getting a procedure from Associated Plastic Surgeons & Consultants. Read on to learn more.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that is used to get rid of stubborn fat around the body. This procedure scrapes off your fat cells and then suctions them out with a device called a cannula. Liposuction can give you the results you’ve wanted from diet and exercise but haven’t been able to achieve. During this surgical procedure, our staff of surgeons and nurses will ensure that you are calm and comfortable. And, with the use of anesthesia, you won’t feel a thing. For your recovery, you can expect to take at least about a week off of work to fully recuperate.
Abdominoplasty
Muffin tops may be delicious to eat \in the morning, but they are the last thing you want to on your body. During an abdominoplasty, our surgeons will lift and tighten the skin around your middle to make it tauter. Additionally, if you have a lot of excess fat around your middle, we can also perform liposuction.
Liposuction and an abdominoplasty are two surgeries that can help you get the body you want. To learn more about these surgical procedures or to schedule an appointment with Associated Plastic Surgeons & Consultants, contact or call (631) 423-1000 today!
