The plastic surgery procedure known as the tummy tuck is one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures in the United States, and for good reason.
The tummy tuck is ideal for both men and women who want to resculpt their body shape after experiencing weight gain followed by significant weight loss.
Dr. Peterson performs many tummy tucks each year, as patients seek out the opportunity to resculpt their body after weight loss and live with confidence.
BodyTite™ is a new sophisticated technology that will revolutionize facial and body contouring by achieving surgical results with minimum scar or the extended recovery time. It accomplishes these significant, long-lasting results in a single procedure utilizing radio-frequency assisted lipolysis (RFAL) which melts the fat and unparalleled contraction of the dermis and underlying connective tissue.
Now, patients have an option to excisional surgery (such as a tummy tuck or arm lift) which leaves visible scars and requires a longer downtime. The answer for many patients will be found using the BodyTite system which provides a safe and minimally invasive procedure.
Known as a brachioplasty, an arm lift is a surgical procedure that reshapes the under portion of the upper arm from the underarm region to the elbow. It is performed to reduce excess sagging skin that droops downward and tighten the underlying support tissue that defines the shape of the arm.
Dr. Jack Peterson performs various body surgery procedures, including the abdominoplasty (“tummy tuck”), the Brazilian Butt-Lift and the thigh-lift to treat areas where sagging tissue, stubborn fat and stretched-out skin persist after significant weight loss or as a result of getting older.
But there’s another body area that is often affected by significant weight loss, aging and genetics: the upper arms. When the arms are affected by these factors, the result can be flabby arms, also known as “bat wings.” But this doesn’t mean you’re sentenced to a life of buying long-sleeved shirts or shirts that are too big so your arms fit. There are options.
In addition to performing lift procedures on other body areas, Dr. Peterson performs the brachioplasty or arm-lift procedure, too.
A lower body lift combines several procedures to achieve results desired after massive weight loss. Each procedure is customized for every patient’s needs. Not only will a lower body lift improve your appearance but it can also improve your ability to move more freely and exercise more comfortably. Not to mention the enormous confidence boost!
