Arm Lift
An arm lift or tuck, or commonly known as brachioplasty, is a procedure to remove excess skin folds and fat between the underarm and the elbow. This procedure restores the firmness of youthful arms with smoother skin and contours.
Liposuction can be combined with brachioplasty to increase the results and few patients may be candidates for liposuction alone. The scar will be hidden. Once again with confidence, you can enjoy toned, firm arms that are proportionate with the rest of you.
Upper Body Lift
An upper body lift is a combined brachioplasty and breast lift. The upper body lift is a procedure that reshapes your body usually after the significant weight loss. It also removes excess skin tissue on the side of chest, middle back areas, and breast.
The result is a more tight compact upper body and a more youthful looking breast. An implant can also be used to enhance breast size and shape.
Lower Body Lift
A lower body lift or tuck or commonly known as a Circumferential Abdominoplasty, is an involved surgical procedure that tightens loose, sagging skin of the trunk and upper legs associated with aging, significant weight loss and post pregnancy changes. In the buttock area Dr. Karim Benítez-Marchand can perform a buttock augmentation with your own tissue as part of the lift.
If your desire is a firmer, youthful body contour, contact us and see if you are a candidate for a surgical body lift procedure.
Post Massive Weight Loss
After having bariatric surgery (gastric bypass surgery), or losing weight with nutritional and exercise adjustments excess tissue always follows. After Massive Weight Loss there is a need for body contouring. This procedure helps you fit back in your skin again.
Let us help take away those feelings of distressed associated with that excess skin and make you fit and feel like yourself again.
Thigh Lift
A thigh lift is simply the reshaping of your thighs by improving the contours. This can be achieved with a combination of procedures including liposuction and the removal of excess skin. Ultimately the goal is to reshape your thigh area, leaving only an inconspicuous scar.
Often a thigh lift is required for excess skin in the thighs that cause rubbing and chafing that can lead to rashes or even serious infections. In most cases no dieting or exercising can eliminate that excess skin often leaving a thigh lift procedure as the only alternative.
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck, commonly known as an abdominoplasty, is a procedure that removes excess fat and skin in the abdominal tummy area, and tightens the muscles to help create a flat, firm abdominal wall.
In general most people who undergo this procedure are usually women who have loose skin from past pregnancies and anyone who was obese and has redundant skin or a widened abdominal wall.
In today’s world we all strive for a flat and well-toned abdomen, that is achieved naturally through exercise and weight control. But unfortunately, sometimes these methods cannot give us what we want, due to the factors out of our control. Abdominoplasty can help you take control of your body and achieve that flat and well-toned look of the abdominal area.
Liposuction
Liposuction, also known as suction lipectomy is a procedure that removes your stubborn fat that regardless of your healthy diet and daily exercise routine, will not go away. That is why Liposuction has become one of the most popular cosmetic procedures performed today, and done by experts hands is a safe procedure.
In the case of women, most common areas where liposuction is applied are: the outer or inner thighs, neck, upper arms, belly, knees, and hips. And when it comes to men, its most popular areas are: the waist, belly, neck, breasts, or back.
Liposuction is in no way a replacement for good exercise and nutrition, but it can help remove those stubborn areas that won’t respond to traditional weight loss methods. Downtime is minimal and though the final result can take up to 6 months to be completed, it is worth it.
Buttock Augmentation (Fat and Implants)
A Buttock Augmentation can lead to a more enhanced and more desired gluteal area. This corrective procedures for buttock augmentation and buttock repair include the surgical emplacement of a gluteal implant or fat grafting. Dr. Karim Benítez-Marchand, MD. has extensive experience in this area of the body compared to most colleagues in his area.
