Body Contouring

Arm Lift

An arm lift is a surgery that re-sculpts the arm and creates a toned, proportional appearance. Many people struggle with loose, sagging skin that hangs from the upper arm. This can occur as the result of weight loss, genetics, or aging. Excess skin on the arms can impede movement and make it difficult to find clothing that fits. Using an incision down the underside of the upper arm, Dr. Korman removes excess skin and fat and is able to rejuvenate this essential limb.

Inner Thigh Lift

An inner thigh lift lifts and tightens tissue on the thigh using a strategic incision near the groin. This can address excess skin on the inner thighs that can make walking difficult. Patients who undergo inner thigh lifts have renewed self-confidence and find that pants fit more attractively.

Thigh Lift

A comprehensive thigh lift may include an incision along the groin that leads to the hip and ends on your back. This incision can often be concealed by underwear or swimsuit bottoms. Thigh lifts correct excess, sagging skin that hangs both vertically and horizontally. Because every patient is unique, thigh lifts are tailored to give patients smooth, firm thighs that harmonize with the rest of their body for natural-looking results.  

Body Lift

For those who have achieved their weight-loss goals but are now left with hanging and uncomfortable flesh, a body lift can be the final step in their transformation. This surgery removes large amounts of skin and fat from the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, and back.

Tummy Tuck

An abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, on the other hand, addresses the abdomen. Lower abdominal tissue is removed, abdominal muscles are reinforced, and the navel is relocated to a lifted, more attractive position. The lower abdomen and mons pubis area is also tightened and lifted. Those who choose to undergo a tummy tuck usually seek to correct the effects of pregnancy or weight loss. Liposuction may be used on the abdomen and flanks to create a leaner silhouette.

Buttocks Augmentation

A buttock augmentation uses either fat grafting via liposuction or silicone implants to shape and enlarge the buttocks. If you choose to have Buttock Augmentation with an implant, the specially made silicone gluteal implants are inserted either in or above the muscle, depending on the implant size and the patient’s body type. Sutures are then applied to close the incision.

When Dr. Joshua Korman performs buttock augmentation with a fat transfer via liposuction, he makes a small incision in the desired donor area, fat is removed, and then processed for re-injection. This procedure is also called a Brazilian Butt Lift and gives the buttocks the appearance of natural, voluptuous curves and healthier-looking skin. 

Fat Transfer

The Brazilian Butt Lift is a popular cosmetic procedure that slims contours and enhances the buttocks without the need for implants. However, this procedure is just one example of the rejuvenating possibilities that fat transfer procedures provide.

Some of the other possibilities offered by fat transfers include:

• Breast augmentation
• Hand rejuvenation
• Facial sculpting
• Minimizing fine lines and wrinkles on the face
• Lip augmentation

Fat transfers reduce excess fat deposits while enhancing other parts of the body. Fat is suctioned from the body using liposuction, and then it is injected into other areas to augment and smooth.

Labiaplasty

Women who experience discomfort or embarrassment due to enlarged labia may find great benefit in labiaplasty. Excess skin on the labia minora can result from childbirth or occur naturally and leave women feeling dissatisfied or inhibited by the appearance of their genitalia. Labiaplasty is a simple surgery that trims this excess skin and can improve quality of life.

Liposuction

Liposuction is the most popular cosmetic procedure in the United States. Liposuction allows patients to remove unwanted fat deposits on the stomach, thighs, arms, buttocks, and many other areas. Advances in liposuction technology allow Dr. Korman to efficiently perform this procedure, giving patients instant results with minimal downtime. Individuals who are tired of dieting and exercising without success take advantage of liposuction’s ability to sculpt targeted areas of their body. Dr. Korman is pleased to offer his patients tumescent liposuction with SmartLipo and VASER Hi-Def Lipo.

SmartLipo

SmartLipo is a quick, effective form of liposuction that uses advanced laser technology to liquefy stubborn fat deposits prior to suctioning them. This minimally invasive, FDA-approved fat reduction treatment can be used on the hips, thighs, arms, buttocks, abdomen, face, and other areas of the body. It is more comfortable for the patient than other traditional liposuction techniques and produces outstanding and sleek results. In addition to fat removal, the laser energy also acts as a skin-tightening agent, initiating an abundance of collagen growth to firm the skin in the treatment area.

VASER Liposuction

VASER stands for “Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance.” It’s a remarkable advancement in body contouring technology. VASER uses the delicate application of sound energy to dislodge body fat and allows for once unimagined levels of exactitude. Vaser allows Dr. Korman to precisely shape the patient’s body. Because the sound waves make fat easier to remove, there is less damage to the surrounding tissue and a shorter recovery time for patients.
