Plastic surgery performed on the body aims at reducing the signs of aging, eliminating surplus weight and making the skin firmer. There are numerous surgical procedures that can be used to improve the look of a patient including lifts, augmentations or liposuction. The plastic surgery may also be used after massive weight loss or bariatric surgery, to remove the surplus of skin.
The patient can opt for a single surgery that focuses on a single body area (e.g., abdominoplasty for the abdominal region) or may get a body lift, which improves the shape and contours of the entire body. A lift consists of removing the surplus skin and some underlying fat, while also tightening the muscles.
Plastic surgery may also consist of breast, buttocks, thigh or calf augmentation, which can be a solution for patients that would like to add some volume and obtain a more harmonious body contour. The augmentation may be performed with the help of surgical implants or fat transfer.
On the other hand, some patients have excess fat deposits that they would like to get rid of. A liposuction procedure can be applied and this can extract up to 10 pounds of fat from a single body area.
