Featured Body Contouring Procedures

LIPOSUCTION

Liposuction is a safe and effective body contouring procedure. While liposuction is not recommended for weight loss, it is a great way to smooth out curves and give those hard-to-control areas an extra lift.

Liposuction can often eliminate the need for more invasive body contouring procedures because once excess fat is removed, the skin’s natural elasticity will increase, tightening up and improving the appearance of the problem area.

TUMMY TUCK

Tummy Tuck surgery, another popular procedure offered at our practice, can help you achieve a trim midsection when diet and exercise fail. When performing this surgery, Dr. Ghaderi will remove excess fat and skin from the middle and lower abdomen and tighten the muscles along the abdominal wall.

The best candidates for tummy tuck surgery are men and women who are in good physical shape, but are bothered by loose sagging skin in the abdominal area. In certain cases, tummy tuck can be combined with liposuction for optimal results. Some patients also opt to receive a facelift or breast enhancement procedure with their tummy tuck for complete rejuvenation.

MOMMY MAKEOVER

St. Charles Plastic Surgery offers an extensive array of sophisticated cosmetic surgery procedures, including a comprehensive combination treatment for mothers who desire to regain their pre-pregnancy body contours. Often referred to as the “mommy makeover”, this treatment consists of several body, breast, and/or face procedures designed to reverse some of the aesthetic side effects of childbearing.

FAT TRANSFER

Fat transfer plastic surgery is growing increasingly popular as more people become aware of the possibilities of the procedure. Also known as fat grafting or fat harvesting, it is a safe, effective and versatile technique that can be utilized for a range of applications.

With fat transfer, Dr. Ghaderi “recycles” your own fat by harvesting it from areas of the body that have a sufficient amount of excess fat (e.g., the abdomen, hips, thighs) and re-injecting in, or transferring it to, areas of the body that lack volume (often, the breasts, buttocks or the back of the hands).
