Swelling begins to disappear in a matter of weeks and resolve completely in a few months. You will have to restrict exercise and other activity as advised by our doctor.

Body Contour Surgery What is Body Contour Surgery? Surgical body contouring following major weight loss removes excess sagging fat and skin while improving the shape of the underlying support tissue. The complete body contouring process includes liposuction, tummy tuck, arm lift, thigh lift, and other procedures as necessary on a case by case basis. The result is a more normal appearance with smoother contours. During your recovery from body contouring surgery, dressings or bandages will be applied to your incisions following the procedure. Small, thin tubes may be temporarily placed under the skin to drain any excess blood or fluid that may collect. You may be instructed to avoid bending, straining or lifting for several days. Liposuction What is Liposuction? Liposuction is a surgical technique that improves the body s contour by removing excess fat from deposits located between the skin and muscle. Liposuction involves the use of a small stainless steel tube, called a cannula. The cannula is connected to a powerful suction pump and inserted into the fat through small incisions in the skin. Fat removal is accomplished as the suction cannula creates tiny tunnels through the fatty layers. After surgery, these tiny tunnels collapse and thus result in an improved body contour. Before the procedure begins, you will be given anesthesia. Depending on the extent of the liposuction, patients are generally able to return to work between two days and two weeks.

This surgery takes two hours and is done under general anaesthesia. An arm lift procedure involves excess skin removal, mostly on the inside of the upper arm, making the skin tighter again. Our surgeon will discuss how long it will be before you can return to your normal level of activity and work. After surgery, you will receive detailed instructions about your postsurgical care and especially balance of rest and reduced activity will speed up your recovery. Vaginoplasty What is Vaginoplasty?

Scar Revision What is Scar Revision? Scar revision is the therapeutic alteration of scar tissue, usually to improve the appearance of the scar or attempt to eliminate it. Scarring can have a deleterious effect on appearance, self-image, and quality of life; scar tissue can be overly sensitive, stiff/inflexible, painful, or itchy. After any kind of scar revision there is an important period of recovery that must be followed very carefully. Most people can resume normal activities soon after surgery. If the full recovery period and therapies are maintained then the scar revision surgery s wounds will heal correctly. The initial healing phase of a surgical scar revision may include localized swelling, discoloration may take 1 to 2 weeks.

Thight Lifting What is Thight Lift? Thigh lift surgery reshapes the thighs by reducing excess skin, and in some cases fat, resulting in smoother skin and better-proportioned contours of the thighs and lower body. If fitness and weight loss efforts have not achieved your goals for a body that is firmer, more youthful looking and more proportionate to your overall body image, a surgical lift may be right for you. What is the recovery time? The recovery after a thigh lift depends on the type of thigh lift performed. As with most body procedures, a restful week off of work is necessary to allow for an appropriate recovery. Some patients may consider taking additional time off depending on their line of work. Small drains may be placed at the time of surgery, and these are usually removed at five to seven days following surgery. Most people can be back at work within several days and running within three weeks. Hair Transplantation What is Hair Transplantation? Hair transplantation is a procedure in which hair is moved from the back and/or sides of the scalp, where the hair is permanent (donor area), to areas that are thinning or bald on the front, top, or crown of the scalp (recipient area). Once transplanted, the hair will continue to grow for a person s lifetime. Where suitable, we perform walk-in walk-out procedures, which do not require general anesthetic, overnight stays or involve long recovery periods. Most people will have attained 65% of new hair growth after four to six months.
