Body Contouring Surgery in Sydney

What is body contouring in Sydney?

Body contouring surgery removes excess skin in any area that needs it. Skin retraction after weight loss or pregnancy is unpredictable, and there is nothing that can be done to encourage skin to retract by itself. Skin creams rarely help, and most non surgical devices have a wide range of skin response rates from good results to non-existent.

The exact procedures that are part of body contouring are different for different patients. Commonly included procedures include an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck, breast lift, buttock and thigh lift, and brachioplasty or arm reduction. If volume lost from the breasts is a concern, breast augmentation either through breast implants or fat transfer can be performed at the same time.

These operations are intended for those who are already at or very close to their goal weight. Body contouring is not a substitute for weight loss through a healthy diet and regular exercise. However, once you attain your goal weight, surgery can change the shape of your body by removing excess skin & tightening up that area.
