Cosmetic Surgery for the body has become increasingly popular over the years. In today's society, image is paramount.  People are increasingly body-conscious and admitting a little help is needed to perfect the way they look, by considering their diet and exercise choices, but also deliberating the possibility of cosmetic surgery for ways in which to sculpt and shape their bodies.

For women the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures are liposuction and abdominoplasty. Men, however, most commonly opt for gynaecomastia which is the medical term for a male breast reduction. If you wanted a body makeover it would incorporate many of the cosmetic surgery procedures listed below.

Liposculpture (Liposuction)

Liposculpture has the same properties as liposuction however it requires more technical skill from the cosmetic surgeon carrying out the procedure. It not only removes unwanted fat cells but it creates a smooth contour after the fat has been suctioned out of the body. We perform liposculpture on many parts of the body. These include the buttocks, thighs, flanks, arms and stomach. Learn more about liposculpture.

Abdominoplasty

Otherwise known as a tummy tuck or an “abdo”. This procedure is commonly performed on women who have given birth and their pregnancy has left them with sagging skin around the stomach area. It is also popular amongst men and women who have lost a lot a considerable amount of weight, and as a result have excess skin which can only be removed through surgery.

Arm Lift

A cosmetic surgery procedure mainly dominated by women. An arm lift involves removing excess skin and fatty tissue from underneath the arm. Commonly known as “bingo wings”, fat arms can cause dreadful embarrassment and are extremely difficult to get rid of, even if toning exercises are carried out to firm up the skin. This fatty tissue can also get worse with age so this procedure is more common amongst more mature women. Learn more about an arm lift.

Gynaecomastia

Otherwise known as a male breast reduction. This cosmetic surgery procedure is when fatty tissue and excess skin is removed from around the chest area. Similarly to female breast surgery patients, this can have a psychological effect on the patient as some men see this as a real imperfection. Reasons for men to require a male breast reduction can be through excessive weight loss and hormonal imbalances. Learn more about male breast reduction.
