At the Plastic Surgery Center in Manhattan and New Jersey, we see many patients who have tried without success to lose that extra paunch of skin and fat on their lower belly. We see this particularly true with women following childbirth or with people who have undergone significant weight loss. Where diet and exercise fail to deliver a sleek, toned abdomen, a tummy tuck often provides the solution for our Manhattan and New Jersey area patients.
For many of our New Jersey and Manhattan area patients, maintaining a healthy diet and exercising regularly are not enough to remove the extra pockets of fat that often develop in the body's problem areas: chin, neck, arms, stomach, bra roll, hips, buttocks, legs, or ankles. For these patients, our Manhattan and New Jersey practices offer Liposuction as a way of targeting these problem areas to give the body a more toned and sculpted appearance.
At the Plastic Surgery Center in New Jersey and Manhattan we often see patients that need help following massive weight loss to create a natural appearing abdomen and lower back. These patients are suffering because they have lost the weight but continue to have an unsightly physical appearance due to the extensive amounts of loose skin in the front and back of their mid-sections. In these situations, a body lift is often the preferred option among our New Jersey and Manhattan area patients.
  Weight fluctuations and the process of aging can both cause skin to slowly lose its elasticity. As a result, many people find themselves with loose, sagging skin on the upper arms, particularly those people who have undergone successful weight loss. An upper arm lift can restore a shapely appearance to the arms by removing and tightening excess skin. At our New Jersey practice, we often combine liposuction with incisions placed along the inside of the underarm or within the armpit to minimize scarring. The brachioplasty procedure is often combined with other body scultping procedures for those patients who have lost a significant amount of weight. If you would like to learn more about an upper arm lift, please contact our New Jersey plastic surgery practice today.
 As in the case of the upper arms, the thighs are also an area of the body vulnerable to weight fluctuation and loss of skin elasticity. A thigh lift is commonly performed on people who have succeeded with massive weight loss to tighten up loose folds of skin on the upper legs. The procedure, however, can be performed on anyone who would like to have trimmer, more toned thighs and has tried without success to accomplish this through diet and exercise. During a thigh lift, the surgeon removes excess skin and tightens underlying tissue. At our New Jersey practice, we often combine this procedure with liposuction, depending on the circumstances. To find out if a thigh lift might be the right procedure for you, please contact our New Jersey center today.
 Losing a lot of weight can seem like the beginning of a new life. However, when you still have folds of loose skin left over, and your body doesn't look like you had hoped, you may feel as though all you have been through was for nothing. Fortunately, at the Plastic Surgery Center we can tighten sagging skin after weight loss and give you the body contour you have been seeking to help you get back the healthy lifestyle you desire.
