Dr. Cusick performs body-slimming and fat-reducing procedures that can restore a proportional body shape. Many of these procedures can be combined for a comprehensive body-contouring treatment. Read on for more information on body procedures.
Arm Lift
An arm lift is a surgical procedure to remove loose skin and excess fat deposits in the upper arm. The aging process or significant changes in body weight can leave a person with sagging upper arms and excess skin.
Body Contouring After Major Weight Loss
Body contouring is for patients who have lost a massive amount of weight and have problems with excess skin and sagging tissue in one or many body areas. These procedures focus on certain areas of the body and slenderize the silhouette.
Body Lift
A complete lower body lift treats sagging buttocks, abdomen, waist, hips and outer thighs. Incision patterns vary, and may include a circumferential incision around the body to remove the “belt” of excess skin and fat.
Breast Reduction for Men
For men who feel self-conscious about excess breast tissue, breast reduction surgery can help. The procedure removes fat and or glandular tissue from the chest area, and in extreme cases removes excess skin, resulting in a chest that is flatter, firmer, and better contoured.
Calf Implants
Patients, often men, who feel they have underdeveloped calves may choose to undergo a calf implant procedure. The insertion of an implant in the calf can enhance the shape of the lower leg.
Liposuction
Liposuction can sculpt the body by removing unwanted fat from specific areas, including the abdomen, hips, buttocks, thighs, knees, upper arms, chin, cheeks and neck. This is not a method for weight loss, but a surgical way of removing localized fat.
Pectoral Implants
Men who have a chest that is underdeveloped, despite exercise, may be aided by a pectoral implant procedure. This surgery, which involves placing implants on the male chest, can help patients realize a chest that is fuller, broader and more masculine.
Thigh Lift
Improving contours of the inner or outer thigh can be achieved with a thigh lift. This may require an incision extending from the groin around the hip. Through these incisions your plastic surgeon will tighten tissues for a smoother, better toned thigh.
Tummy Tuck
Abdominoplasty, known more commonly as a tummy tuck, is a major surgical procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen and to tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall.
