Body Sculpting in Walnut Creek

Our mission - We are here to treat YOU
BODY-PROCEDURES

As you age, you may find there are areas of your body that begin sagging or are resistant to diet and exercise. Many men and women turn to body sculpting procedures to achieve the body contour and tone that they have not been able to achieve in the gym. Body sculpting in Walnut Creek with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Eberlin  may offer you the opportunity to achieve your ideal physique.

Why Choose Body Sculpting?

There are several reasons why men and women choose body sculpting procedures, but the main reason is that certain areas of stubborn fat are resistant to diet and exercise. Several surgical options can treat a variety of areas of the body. Extremely fit people can have excess deposits of fat that cause cosmetic body contour concerns.

Although body sculpting treatments can offer a slimmer waist and silhouette by removing excess fat, these procedures are not considered weight loss treatments. Your plastic surgeon will want you to be close to or at your desired body weight before using a body sculpting procedure to help you attain your cosmetic goals. Remember that regardless of the procedure you choose, gaining or losing weight gain will affect the results of your surgery.

Types of Body Sculpting Techniques

Different body sculpting procedures address different areas of the body. Some are combination procedures, such as a mommy makeover, and others can be done independently. If you would like more than one body contouring procedure, discuss the possibility of a combination treatment plan with your Walnut Creek plastic surgeon.

Arm Lift

This procedure, also known as brachioplasty, is used to remove excess skin from under your arms, between the shoulder and the elbow. An arm lift can be done in combination with liposuction to reduce small fatty deposits that have been resistant to diet and exercise.

Emsculpt®

When diet and exercise aren’t enough to reach your fitness goals, EMSCULPT in Walnut Creek will go the extra mile.

Fat Transfer to Buttocks

Our surgeons can transfer fat from one area of your body to another to simultaneously add contours and volume. We remove the fat through liposuction, process it in the surgical suite, and re-inject it into your body. This process leads to a naturally enhanced shape that does not typically result in your body rejecting the fat or reacting to it in any way, since it is your own tissue.

Transferring fat to the buttocks—a Brazilian butt lift—is used to achieve a rounder contour. While this procedure can change the shape of your buttocks, it cannot remove cellulite.

Labiaplasty

A labiaplasty in Walnut Creek is the reshaping of the labia majora, labia minora, or both. Asymmetries or excess in the labia minora are relatively common and these tend to become more pronounced after childbirth. Restoring the labia to a more natural, youthful appearance can make a big difference in how you feel.

Liposuction

This is a minimally invasive procedure in which a surgeon removes unwanted fat deposits using small surgical incisions. Your surgeon inserts a cannula to suction out excess fat.

Mommy Makeover

After pregnancy, your abdominal muscles and skin may not return to their normal pre-baby size. Other bodily changes can also happen during pregnancy, including in your breasts, arms, buttocks, and labia. A mommy makeover is a single-stage procedure that can address all these areas simultaneously.

Post-Weight Loss Sculpting

Losing a significant amount of weight can improve your overall health but may leave you with loose skin around the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, and face. Loss of elasticity in the skin means that it will not shrink back to its normal size. Post-weight loss body sculpting can include several procedures to address this loose skin.

Thigh Lift

A thigh lift may be an ideal procedure after significant weight loss or to help remove excess fat and sagging skin. The procedure helps create a desirable silhouette and is an excellent choice for those who have excess skin between their groin and knees.

Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck is also called abdominoplasty. During this procedure, your surgeon removes excess skin and fat from around your abdomen. When necessary, your abdominal wall muscles can also be tightened. Women who develop diastasis recti after pregnancy—when the abdominal muscles separate, causing the belly to bulge—can have this repaired during a tummy tuck surgery.

Mini Tummy Tuck

A mini tummy tuck is a surgical procedure where a small incision will be made below the underwear line to remove excess skin and fat. This surgery is ideal for people who may have a small pooch in the lower abdominal region that does not respond to any forms of diet or exercise. Our main goal is to make you happy with your body. Every surgery Dr. Eberlin does is personalized to meet your specific needs and wishes.

What to Expect During Recovery

The specifics of your recovery period depend on your selected surgical procedure. For example, liposuction alone requires far less downtime than a mommy makeover. In all cases, you should follow post-surgical recommendations from your plastic surgeon to reduce the potential for complications, including infection.

Most complications negatively affect the results of your surgery and may require further hospitalization for treatment. Dr. Eberlin typically recommends you restrict your lifting activities after body contouring procedures. You will not be able to lift anything heavier than five or 10 pounds, and if you have small children, you may need help with childcare.
