You might find that months of exercise and eating a highly nutritious diet did not produce the slender body you hoped for. You lost weight, but fat deposits in some areas of your body may have resisted your efforts, or your hard-earned weight loss produced laxity and hanging skin.
When this happens, body contouring in Mesa could help you achieve your aesthetic goals. Call our office today to make an appointment with Dr. Nachbar. Dr. Nachbar and our staff will answer your questions and develop a customized plan to address your needs.
When considering body sculpting surgery, you should identify any factors that may influence your recovery. For example, your health and medical history could affect your healing time, as chronic diseases may increase the risk of complications.
The type of procedure will also have a significant impact on recovery time. For example, a lower body lift and a breast lift have two different types of recovery, and liposuction and nonsurgical treatments have shorter downtimes. Since healing time can range from a few days to several weeks, consider how to get the necessary time off work, and how your lifestyle can accommodate any activity restrictions.
Most body contouring procedures are not covered by insurance in Mesa. Carefully reviewing your cost and financing options can help protect your financial health. Once you come in for a consultation, we can make specific recommendations and give you pricing for the various options you may consider.
To maintain the results of any body enhancing procedure, you should maintain a stable weight, eat a healthy diet, and get regular exercise. Gaining a significant amount of weight can diminish the effects of your treatment. Modest weight loss after surgery does not generally cause much trouble, but you should discuss your plans with Dr. Nachbar.
We offer many treatments for Mesa patients that could sculpt your body and improve your confidence.
A mommy makeover is a combination of surgical procedures often requested after a woman decides that her family is complete. Dr. Nachbar invented the mommy makeover, which he trademarked as the Post-Baby Tune-Up® in the early 2000s.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding can trigger significant changes in a woman’s abdomen, breasts, upper arms, and face. A mommy makeover can help adjust these changes to create a slender and more feminine silhouette. Each mommy makeover is customized to your needs, but the most requested procedures are a tummy tuck, breast lift with or without augmentation or reduction, and liposuction.
The types of procedures included in your mommy makeover will impact the length of the surgery and your recovery.
We can combine plastic surgeries, so you have one surgical session and one recovery period. This is typically more efficient and cost-effective since you are only charged once for the surgical suite and anesthesia, and allows you to enjoy your results more quickly. We can combine several types of surgeries and incorporate non-surgical procedures.
Significant weight loss is an accomplishment to celebrate. However, sometimes it results in excess skin, which makes it difficult to find clothes that fit properly. It can also cause skin irritation and infections.
Body contouring procedures after significant weight loss or bariatric surgery help remove excess skin around your core, arms, thighs, and knees. These surgical procedures can be extensive and may require extended recovery. You will typically wear a compression garment to help the skin and underlying tissue heal in place.
Procedures that remove excess fat deposits and skin from the inner thigh and upper arm are done on both upper and lower limbs, which can make mobility after surgery a little more challenging. We use surgical incisions on the inside of the arm and in the inner thigh to make scars as inconspicuous as possible. However, the scars will be somewhat visible even after they have healed and faded.
Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure that removes excess tissue from the labia minora. These are the inner lips of the vagina that sometimes become enlarged. They can be stretched after pregnancy or due to age, or may just develop too large. Lengthened labia may be pinched and can cause pain while wearing certain types of clothing, during recreational activities, or during intimacy. This outpatient procedure can help address your concerns. Dr. Nachbar has many photos of labiaplasty to help you see how that procedure can be helpful.
This commonly requested cosmetic procedure helps remove stubborn fat deposits. There are several types of liposuction procedures, but each type uses a narrow cannula or tube attached to suction that permanently removes excess fat. It is important to note that liposuction is not a weight loss plan, and while fat cells are permanently removed, weight gain can impact the surgical results.
A tummy tuck is a procedure that removes excess tissue in the midsection and tightens the abdominal muscles. We offer several types of tummy tuck procedures, including a circumferential tummy tuck that also removes excess fat and tissue from your sides and back as well as from the front. It is an extensive surgery that can be especially helpful to reshape your body after major weight loss.
Dr. Nachbar uses the no-drain technique for all tummy tucks. This option uses progressive tension sutures to close the space between the skin and muscle, eliminating the need for drains, reducing discomfort after surgery, and speeding up healing.
Body contouring procedures could help improve your self-confidence and boost your personal and professional life. However, it is crucial to consult with a skilled plastic surgeon. If you are considering body contouring in Mesa, call us today to discover how Dr. Nachbar could help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
