Liposuction and Body Contouring by Plastic Surgery Associates of Naples-Fort Myers

A variety of procedures are performed by Dr. Stanley P. Gulin at Plastic Surgery Associates of Naples-Ft. Myers to improve the shape and proportion of various areas of the chest, abdomen, hips and waist, thighs, calves, and arms. Most of these procedures involve ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection/VASER-Lipo) alone or may be combined with skin tightening techniques. Many advances have been made in the areas of liposuction and body contouring so that now the procedures are safer, have a shorter recovery time, and better results.

Below is a brief description of some of the more frequent liposuction and body contouring procedures performed by Dr. Gulin. For more details please click on each procedure, schedule a consultation, or speak to Dr. Gulin and his staff by e-mail (sgulinmd@drgulin.com) or by phone (239-596-8000).

Ultrasonic Tumescent Liposuction (Lipo-Selection/VASER-Lipo)
Every body has areas that are predisposed to fat storage and even with rigorous diet and exercise these unwanted bulges often persist. Ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection) is a minimally invasive procedure that precisely and efficiently removes unwanted body fat. Dr. Gulin is able to reshape and give better proportion to such areas as the face, neck, chest, abdomen, hips and waist, back, arms, thighs, calves, chin, and chin. Read more about ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection/VASER-Lipo).

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
A tighter, flatter abdomen is a goal that many men and women aspire to. Often exercise and diet alone does not achieve the result that they hope for. In general a tummy tuck removes excess fat and skin and in some cases restores the weakened or separated muscles of the abdomen. Often this procedure is combined with ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection). Read more about tummy tuck (abdominoplasty).

Mommy Makeover (Post pregnancy Breast and Body Contouring).
Pregnancy often results in either weakening of the abdominal musculature, excessive abdominal skin, or additional fatty deposits in the abdomen, hips and waist, or thighs. Many women come to Plastic Surgery Associates of Naples/Fort Myers to improve the shape of their abdomen and waist, often in combination with a breast lift (mastopexy).

A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) removes the excess skin and fat as well as tightens the muscles which have been stretched by pregnancy. Tumescent ultrasonic liposuction (Lipo-Selection/VASER-Lipo) removes excessive fatty tissue in the waist, hips, and thigh areas. A breast lift (mastopexy) restores the breast shape as well as elevating the nipple to a higher position.

Using these techniques Dr. Gulin is able to dramatically improve a woman’s post-pregnancy breast and body shape, at times even surpassing the appearance she had prior to surgery. Read more about mommy make-over (post pregnancy breast and body reshaping).

Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
Excessive fat and hanging skin of the upper arm can be treated very successfully with an arm lift by Dr. Gulin. At times only liposuction is sufficient to reshape the arm. If excessive skin is present, a well hidden incision allows the extra skin to be removed. Read more about arm lift (brachioplasty).

Thigh Lift
Although many patients seen at Plastic Surgery Associates of Naples/Fort Myers are able to contour their thighs with ultrasonic tumescent liposuction (Lipo-Selection/VASER-Lipo) alone, some patients need removal of sagging skin with a thigh lift. Dr. Gulin places a very well hidden cosmetic incision in the groin crease, which is easily covered by a bathing suit. A thigh lift tightens the inner thigh as well as the front of the thigh. Read more about thigh lift.

Body Contouring Following Extreme Weight Loss

Following a significant weight loss, patients see Dr. Stanley P. Gulin at Plastic Surgery Associates of Naples-Fort Myers to tighten the sagging loose skin, which has developed. Each procedure is tailored to the individual patient. Often excessive skin in the breast, chest, abdomen, hips, arms, and thighs is removed and tightened. Not only do clothes fit better and the body appears smoother and firmer, but one’s body image and confidence is often enhanced. In addition to body contouring procedures facial rejuvenation and contouring procedures such as face-lift and liposuction of the face and neck often are used to further improve the appearance following weight loss.

A number of procedures are available to tailor and smooth excessive skin that has developed following weight loss: Dr. Gulin and his staff would be happy to schedule a consultation or speak to you through e-mail (sgulinmd@drgulin.com) or by phone (239-596-8000) regarding any questions you may have.
