Stubborn fat, loose skin, and areas lacking definition can make your natural contours feel out of balance. Body contouring offers surgical and nonsurgical options for people seeking a more sculpted silhouette. At Dr. Zetrenne Plastic Surgery Body Boutique, our board-certified plastic surgeon personalizes treatment to your anatomy and aesthetic goals.
Refine Your Silhouette With Body Contouring
Body contouring refers to surgical and nonsurgical treatments that help reshape specific areas of the body by addressing concerns such as stubborn fat, loose skin, and uneven proportions. Depending on your needs, treatment may involve removing unwanted fat, tightening excess skin, enhancing volume, or improving definition. Dr. Zetrenne develops an individualized plan based on your specific anatomy and goals, with an emphasis on balanced, natural-looking contours that enhance what you already have.
Reasons to Consider Body Contouring:
- Sculpting areas resistant to diet and exercise
- Reducing stubborn pockets of unwanted fat
- Tightening loose or sagging skin
- Enhancing natural curves and definition
- Creating more balanced body proportions
- Restoring contours changed by pregnancy or weight loss
- Addressing multiple areas with a personalized treatment plan
- Enhancing your existing shape rather than changing it entirely
Which Procedures Are Included in Body Contouring?
Liposuction
Liposuction removes localized fat that may persist despite diet and exercise. Dr. Zetrenne uses precise techniques to sculpt the abdomen, thighs, arms, buttocks, and chin, creating smoother transitions and more defined, proportionate contours throughout the treated area.
360 Liposculpture
360 liposculpture takes a comprehensive approach to reshaping the midsection. Rather than treating a single area, the procedure removes targeted fat from the abdomen, waist, flanks, and back to create definition and a more balanced silhouette from multiple angles.
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck addresses loose abdominal skin, stubborn fat, and weakened abdominal muscles. Dr. Zetrenne removes excess tissue and tightens the muscles, helping create a firmer, smoother abdominal profile while maintaining natural-looking proportions and balance.
Fat Grafting
Fat grafting transfers your own fat from one area to another to enhance volume and shape. After harvesting and processing fat through liposuction, Dr. Zetrenne strategically places it in targeted areas to create fuller, smoother, and more proportionate contours.
Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover combines procedures to address changes that occur after pregnancy and breastfeeding. Depending on your concerns, your plan may incorporate breast surgery, a tummy tuck, liposuction, or other treatments to improve areas affected by pregnancy or childbirth.
Excess Skin Removal Surgery
Skin tightening after weight loss is a set of surgical procedures that reshape and sculpt the body by removing excess skin and fat. It targets areas like the abdomen, thighs, arms, breasts, and buttocks—where loose skin commonly appears after major weight loss.
Who is a Good Candidate for Body Contouring?
You may be a good candidate for body contouring if you have stubborn fat, loose skin, reduced definition, or changes following pregnancy or weight loss. The ideal candidates are generally in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and are at or near a stable weight.
Your candidacy also depends on what you want to address and whether a surgical or nonsurgical approach best suits your needs. Dr. Zetrenne carefully evaluates your anatomy, skin quality, medical history, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals to develop a personalized plan that enhances your natural shape and creates balanced, natural-looking results.
Body Contouring FAQs
How long do body contouring results last?
Your results can be long-lasting, particularly when you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Liposuction permanently removes treated fat cells, while surgically removed excess skin does not grow back. However, aging, pregnancy, and significant weight fluctuations can change your contours over time.
Can I lose weight with body contouring?
Body contouring is not meant for weight loss. Instead, it reshapes specific areas by addressing concerns such as localized fat, loose skin, or limited definition. You will achieve the best results when you are already at or near a stable weight and want to refine targeted areas.
Is body contouring safe?
Body contouring is generally considered safe for appropriately selected patients, but every surgical and nonsurgical procedure carries some potential risks. Your specific risks depend on your health, treatment, and other factors. Dr. Zetrenne carefully evaluates your candidacy and develops an individualized plan to ensure safety based on your anatomy and aesthetic goals.
