With beach season just around the corner, everyone is back in workout mode and working on his or her beach body before donning their swimsuits for the first time. And while diet and exercise can make plenty of difference, some of us need a little extra help with getting the results we desire. A plastic surgery procedure can help you get results quickly and safely, and when used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise, can act as a “reset” button for those of us who feel that our self-image doesn’t match our physical body.
Here are the top 3 cosmetic procedures for beach season, and why they’re so popular:
-
Liposuction
Liposuction surgery, or lipoplasty, is a procedure that helps to sculpt specific problem areas of the body by removing unwanted fat. Common treatment areas include the hips, abdomen, buttocks, thighs, chin, upper arms, and neck. Those seeking a better-proportioned and smoother body contour may benefit from undergoing liposuction.
For beach season, liposuction will give you smoother lines and prevent some of the bulging that occurs when a bathing suit sits on a part of the body that has excessive fat deposits. -
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck procedure, also known as abdominoplasty, helps slim down the abdominal area and tighten the associated muscles. The tummy tuck procedure is performed to remove the extra fat and skin from the middle and lower abdomen, and to tighten the muscles along the abdominal wall, dramatically reducing the bulk of the abdominal area.If you’ve recently lost a lot of weight and have excess skin in the abdominal region, a tummy tuck can make a world of difference for swimsuit season.
-
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation, technically known as augmentation mammaplasty, is a surgical procedure to enhance the size and shape of a woman’s breast, helping the patient to achieve her desired breast size and shape.Whether through silicone or saline implants, a breast augmentation can help you better “fill out” the bathing suit, and many patients report an increase in confidence that comes from this procedure.,
BONUS:
Buttock augmentation
Though nowhere near as popular as the three procedures above, buttock augmentation, also known as gluteoplasty, has been rapidly increasing in popularity. The procedure’s rise to popularity could have something to do with the emphasis that region of the body has received as of late in popular culture. For more information on buttock augmentation, read our post on the procedure.
If you’re looking for a dramatic change for your body, these procedures can be combined for greater effect. And if you’re not sure where to start, contact St. Charles Plastic Surgery to set up a consultation with Dr. Ghaderi and evaluate which of these options is the right one for you.
