Reshaped Contours

What is Body Contouring? //

Body contouring complaints include deficiencies or excess, such as generalized fat, localized fat deposits, loose skin, subcutaneous tissue, or cellulite.

There are numerous companies claiming non-invasive cures for excessive fat and skin, but correction usually requires surgery, such as liposuction, lift and tuck (i.e. abdominoplasty, thighplasty), or dermal lipectomy (excision of skin and fat). Contour deformities from insufficient soft tissue and fat in localized areas can be corrected with fat injection or augmentation with nearby tissue or an implant.

Your Body Contouring Options

Liposuction – This procedure is a precise way to remove excess fat from areas like the abdomen, back, buttocks, chest, upper arms, and thighs. After a tiny incision has been made, a thin tube called a cannula is inserted. It is used to loosen stubborn fatty tissue, which is removed through the tube using medical suction.

Laser Liposuction — Laser liposuction is a modern cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess fat, offering a more targeted approach than traditional liposuction. This technique uses laser energy to liquefy fat cells before they are suctioned out, resulting in a less invasive process. Ideal for contouring small, stubborn areas, laser liposuction allows for precise fat reduction with reduced recovery time. The procedure also stimulates collagen production, which can lead to tighter, smoother skin. It's important to note that laser liposuction is not a weight loss solution but rather a contouring tool for those close to their ideal body weight.

Abdominoplasty – Also called a tummy tuck, abdominoplasty removes sagging abdominal skin, tightens drooping muscles and sagging skin, and gets rid of stubborn fat. This contours the abdomen for a fit and toned look.

Back Lift – This procedure trims excess fat and hanging skin from the patient’s back.

Butt Lift – This form of buttocks enhancement can be conducted using excess skin and fat removal, fat grafting from other areas of the body, or placement of an implant.

Chest Wall Contouring – To sculpt the chest wall, liposuction is typically performed to get rid of excess fat.

Thighplasty – This body-sculpting surgery eliminates excess hanging thigh skin and tightens the underlying tissues. Excess stubborn fat is also removed.

Knee and Lower Leg Contouring – Patients can sculpt areas of their legs below the thighs with this form of body contouring.

Brachioplasty – Thanks to arm contouring or brachioplasty, patients can get rid of “bingo wings” hanging from their upper arms.

Dermal Lipectomy – With a dermal lipectomy, fatty tissue can be taken out and excess skin can be trimmed away. This results in tighter contours.

Correction of Contour Deformities – Contour deformities are regions that are lacking in volume, creating an unnatural appearance in contrast to the surrounding tissue. To correct this, tissue can be grafted from nearby areas. Excess fat can also be transferred from other areas to these regions via injection. Implants may be available to correct certain contour deformities.

Body Contouring Results //

The time it takes to realize the ultimate outcomes of surgical body contouring varies from person to person and is influenced by several factors. Initially, you'll notice some immediate changes after the procedure despite the presence of swelling and bruising. As you progress through the initial weeks of recovery, these temporary side effects will gradually subside, revealing a better-defined contour. Most patients experience a substantial portion of their final results within a few months following surgery. This stage marks a significant reduction in swelling and a noticeable improvement in your body's appearance. As your body continues to heal, the full impact of the body contouring procedures becomes increasingly evident. In the long term, typically over several months to a year, the final, lasting results emerge. Your body will adapt to its newly sculpted shape, and the benefits of the surgery, including skin tightening and improved body contour, will become more pronounced.

Body Contouring Recovery and Aftercare //

Depending on the chosen body contouring procedures, the patient can go home after the surgery and will undergo a recovery period. They may experience soreness and swelling in the treated areas for several days. Prescriptions and post-surgery instructions will be provided to aid in the healing process. Results will be seen immediately after the procedure, but patients must wait until recovery is complete to see their full results.

Post Surgery Scar Treatment

A common concern among those pursuing plastic surgery is the appearance of post-surgical scarring. It is important to note that many elements of scarring are genetic, and there are some people predisposed to forming widened or thickened scars. However, there are known interventions that if followed can significantly reduce the size and visibility of the post-surgical scar.

By choosing PR Plastic Surgery for your procedure, you have already taken the first step by choosing board-certified plastic surgeons who are meticulous in their technique and wound closure. Thankfully, our patients also have the resources of the PR MedSpa and the expertise of our aestheticians to ensure the most favorable surgical outcomes.

For optimal scar treatment and healing, both Drs. Park and Rebowe, and our aestheticians highly recommend two therapies available through our MedSpa. Once cleared by your surgeon, our MedSpa staff will assist you in transitioning to these therapies.

Silagen Silicone Treatment
Laser Scar Therapy

Silagen Silicone Treatment

Works as a protective barrier that seals in hydration and limits excess collagen production, the root cause of abnormal and raised scars. This treatment is offered in the form of either silicone scar cream or silicone sheeting. The silicone cream will have additional benefits to scar reduction, including moisturizer and sunscreen. The cream dries to form a medical-grade silicone barrier that is flexible and lightweight. The silicone sheets have the additional benefit of added pressure to the scar. We recommend that the silicone cream be applied twice daily, and the silicone sheets are worn daily for up to 24 hours. Silagen Silicone Treatment is usually recommended for a minimum of 2-4 weeks following suture removal, or per physician recommendation. Some patients may utilize Silagen silicone up to one year post surgery for optimal results.

The Laser Scar Therapy

Consists of two powerful devices that can reduce scars and scar tissue, the Vbeam Perfecta and the Erbium laser.

The Vbeam Perfecta Laser reduces the appearance of scars by decreasing the erythematous, or red pigment. Inflamed scar tissue has more active blood cells than normal skin and the wavelength of this device targets the red pigment specifically, reducing the inflammation and therefore scarring. Clinical studies show that 100% of scars treated with Vbeam Perfecta Laser show visible improvement.

After the Vbeam, we use the Erbium Laser to blend the transition to native skin and compliment the results. By heating the subcutaneous tissue, the laser stimulates the production of new collagen, resulting in tightened and rejuvenated skin around the scar. Not only will the scar itself fade and diminish, but the edges of the scar will more effectively blend into the surrounding skin. Laser scar therapy has proven to speed up the recovery process post-surgery.

Your surgeon and our aestheticians at the PR MedSpa will assist you in choosing the correct post-surgery scar treatment pathway for you following your surgery.
