Sometimes diet and exercise are not quite enough to help you improve your physique. If you are struggling with stubborn fat and stretched skin, and your self-confidence is suffering in the process, a body contouring procedure in Fort Worth helps eliminate excess tissue and tighten your skin to help you enjoy your weight loss achievement for longer. At North Texas Plastic Surgery, we offer a variety of plastic surgery treatments that are customized to your body type and leave you with an aesthetic that you will be proud to show off.
During your consultation, our board-certified plastic surgeon will explain what procedures can help you achieve your goals and answer all your questions. In some cases, the treatment may require several procedures, such as a tummy tuck, liposuction, and breast augmentation, in addition to non-surgical treatments. A mommy makeover, for example, takes advantage of multiple treatments to restore you to the body you had prior to pregnancy and childbirth. Our elite team of medical professionals will customize the contouring procedures to meet your unique needs and aesthetical goals.
One of the most common body sculpting surgeries that our Fort Worth patients ask for is a tummy tuck, which involves surgically excising extra skin that sags around the abdomen. It is often done in conjunction with liposuction, which vacuums fat from your belly or other parts of your body. Although these should not be viewed as weight loss procedures, we can work with someone who has already had a gastric bypass surgery to address the loose skin that remains, which often requires a different level of correction.
It’s no secret that many people wish they could get rid of the flabby bits of skin that hangs off different parts of the body. Fortunately, we can make that a reality. Our board-certified surgeons provide numerous body lifts that can remove that extra skin tissue and tighten you up so that you look younger and healthier. Arm lifts, thigh lifts, and Brazilian butt lifts are all good options to ask about during your consultation.
Butt lifts can be done using your own fat tissue from another part of the body or it can happen through the use of silicone implants. More than half of the fat we insert into the skin will take, which means that the result will be effectively permanent. We will discuss any risks involved in this body contouring procedure, as well as the recovery process, during your consultation.
After getting a body contouring procedure in Fort Worth, you should expect initial results to become noticeable about six weeks or so after the procedure. You will experience gradual improvements in your appearance one to two months after the treatment, and final results usually become evident three to six months after your treatment.
The recovery time varies depending on the type of procedure you had. However, the average recovery time from contouring surgery is about one to two months. During your recovery, it is essential to avoid most physical activities, including exercise. Our team will be in constant contact with you to monitor your progress and answer any questions you may have.
Body contouring is often considered a permanent solution to a number of aesthetic issues, often lasting up to 10 years or more. It is vital that you regularly exercise and maintain stable body weight to extend the duration of the results. Additionally, strive to lead a healthy lifestyle to allow the results of your treatment last longer.
If some areas of your body refuse to respond to conventional weight loss methods, it is time to consider getting a body contouring procedure. Whether you want to reshape your figure to achieve your desired look or you simply want to rid yourself of fat deposits and stretched or sagging skin, our highly experienced Fort Worth team can utilize the latest body contouring surgical techniques to help reduce those problematic areas.
