At CaloSpa, we have invested millions of dollars in providing the most advanced non-surgical body contouring procedures, all which have been discussed in this magazine. They include:
Through these procedures, we can freeze fat, melt fat, tighten skin, build muscle, and smooth cellulite. However, sometimes surgery is the best option and the best value to achieve the desired result. Liposuction if extremely common in our practice and I perform liposuction at some level in over half my patients. At CaloAesthetics Plastic Surgery, we use power-assisted liposuction and do it through a technique called SAFE Lipo! The only limitation to liposuction is its inability to tighten skin. Renuvion ® is an excellent procedure to perform immediately after the liposuction to tighten the loose skin. I have been personally shocked at how effective Renuvion skin tightening can be. Additionally, every time we do liposuction we ask if there is anywhere we should put the fat. BBLs (Brazillian Butt Lifts ) are very common, but also some patients chose to do a bit of rejuvenating fat grafting to the face or breasts. Fat grafting is a powerful option to consider when undergoing liposuction. If the skin is too loose and the tissues are sagging, a 'LIFT' may be required. This could be a thigh lift, arm lift (brachioplasty), necklift, buttocks lift or even a complete body lift. This does involve more scars to lift and tighten the tissue, but the results are outstanding. These techniques are often used in patients who have undergone massive weight loss or genetically have very loose skin. Another problem area is the abdomen due to pregnancy, weight loss or aging. A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) can include many techniques performed together to achieve the final result — liposuction, mons pubis debulking and elevation, skin excision, new belly button construction and muscle tightening. We inject all our patients with exparel at the end of surgery to allow a numbing effect in the area for 3-4 days. All of these procedures can be performed as an outpatient with close follow-up in our office as you recover. These may be more invasive procedures that may give some of our patients a bit of hesitation in going down the surgical path...and I may not want to ask them if they would do it again in the first week or so after the procedure. But when they go for it...and all is done...the big smiles and hugs a few weeks later remind me that we have changed each of their lives for the better, and it was definitely worth it.
