Is your active lifestyle still not giving you your dream body? Maybe it’s time to consider body plastic surgery.
Body plastic surgery procedures include treatment areas such as the abdomen, breasts, buttocks, arms, thighs, and more. At Layliev Plastic Surgery, our team will listen to your appearance goals and recommend the best body procedure for you.
Body Procedures Offered
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck tightens and reshapes the abdominal area, providing a more toned and sculpted appearance.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a less invasive procedure that suctions out unwanted fat from specific body parts, refining the overall body shape.
Body Contouring
Body contouring includes various procedures that enhance the shape of the body, including liposuction, tummy tucks, and more.
Buttock Augmentation
A buttock augmentation enhances the size and shape of the buttocks for a fuller, more rounded look.
Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover is a combination of procedures designed to restore a woman’s body after pregnancy and childbirth.
Labiaplasty
Labiaplasty is a surgical enhancement of the labia for comfort and aesthetics.
Arm Lift
An arm lift reduces excess skin and fat between the underarm and the elbow, reshaping the arm.
Thigh Lift
A thigh lift targets excess skin and fat on the thighs for a firmer, more youthful contour.
Body Lift
A body lift improves the shape and tone of the underlying tissue that supports fat and skin.
Which Procedure Is Right For Me?
Each body procedure is focused on enhancing the body part you want to improve. Those who want to reduce belly fat and remove excess skin are, for example, better candidates for a tummy tuck. However, if a candidate only wants to remove fat deposits in the abdomen, then liposuction is enough to meet their goals.
The best way to find out which procedure is best for you is to consult with Dr. John Layliev, a double-board plastic surgeon specializing in procedures for the face, nose, eyes, breast, and body. He can provide a better recommendation for you with his first-class experience and patient care. Expect the latest surgical techniques as he continuously develops his knowledge and skills in plastic surgery.
What to Expect During the Consultation?
Dr. John Layliev will provide an accurate assessment during your consultation so that you get the surgical plan you need. This includes a detailed conversation about your complete medical history and appearance goals.
You can also ask him all your questions and become more informed before considering body plastic surgery.
How Long Is the Recovery Period?
The recovery period for body plastic surgery procedures depends on the complexity of the surgery and the patient’s overall health. Here’s a general timeline for some of the most common procedures:
- Tummy Tuck: Recovery typically takes about 2 to 3 weeks for light daily activities, with a full return to all activities, including exercise, around 6 to 8 weeks.
- Liposuction: Most patients can return to work within a few days to a week, with a full recovery and final results visible after 1 to 3 months.
- Body Contouring Procedures: Recovery can range from 1 to 4 weeks for lighter procedures, with more extensive surgeries requiring up to 6 to 8 weeks for full recovery.
- Mommy Makeover: Since this combines multiple procedures, recovery is usually longer, often taking 4 to 6 weeks before returning to normal activities, with full recovery taking up to 3 months.
Our team will provide special post-surgery care instructions. This includes how to care for incisions, medications to apply or take orally to aid healing and reduce the risk of infection, and when to follow up for post-operative visits.
It is important to follow these instructions closely to ensure the best possible recovery and results. Rest, hydration, and a healthy diet are key aspects of a smooth recovery process.
