Body Procedures
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
Abdominoplasty, known more commonly as a “tummy tuck,” is a surgical procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen and to tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall.
All bodies change over time, but some changes are more drastic than others. If you lose a large amount of weight or have a child, your abdominal area experiences some big changes. A common result of these changes is excess skin in your midsection, which can lead to poor body-image and lower self-esteem. Stretched skin and muscles can’t be dieted away or tightened with exercise. The only way to remove the excess tissue is with a tummy tuck, a procedure that removes the tissue to create a smoother, flatter, trimmer waistline.
Liposuction
Despite good health and a reasonable level of fitness, some people may still have a body with disproportionate contours due to localized fat deposits. These areas may be due to family traits rather than a lack of weight control or fitness. Liposuction slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by removing excess fat deposits, improving your body contours and proportion, and ultimately, enhancing your self-image.
Body Lift
After a successful weight loss, many patients find their journey is not complete until they can address the excess skin and folds which remain around the abdomen and back. A body lift eliminates excess skin and fat deposits to create a younger body shape by raising, reshaping, and recontouring a sagging midsection. A belt lipectomy can be used to add definition to the waist, abdomen, thighs, hips, and buttocks. Many patients choose to undergo a liposuction at the same time as a body lift.
Thigh Lift
The inner and outer thighs are often troublesome areas for patients to lose fat and tighten. Thigh lift, sometimes called thighplasty, is a term that describes a procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the inner thigh. It aims to restructure and tighten the underlying thigh tissue.
Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
An arm lift, also known as brachioplasty, is considered for patients who wish to tighten their arm skin and reduce sagging by removing loose skin and fat deposits in the upper arm. Weight loss is a common culprit for the excess skin, but it can also be caused by age or genetics. A brachioplasty can slim the appearance of the arms, provide relief from painful chafing, and create a more toned arm appearance
Brazilian Butt Lift
A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a form of gluteal augmentation. It provides an effective way to attain a shapelier and more defined buttocks without having to use implants. A Brazilian butt lift adds fullness to the buttocks to create the desired shape and lift. It has the added benefit of removing unwanted fat from other areas of the body. This is accomplished through a specialized liposuction and fat transfer process.
Dr. Strazar will carefully remove fat from targeted areas of the body. Next, the fat is purified to ensure only high quality undamaged fat cells are remaining. This is then injected it into specific areas of the buttocks to shape and sculpt. An ideal Brazilian butt lift requires an artistic component to the transfer, which when delivered properly can produce a desired natural looking result without the concerns of an implant.
Labial Rejuvenation
Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess labia minora skin that hangs below the labia majora. Beyond the obvious cosmetic benefits, it can also be performed to help correct asymmetry that develops during puberty wherein one labia is significantly larger than others.
Finally, labiaplasty can also provide functional benefits, as some women with labia minora excess complain of pinching with walking or sitting, pushing in of the labia during sexual intercourse, or chaffing during sports.
