Liposuction

Liposuction

The liposuction procedure is among the safest and most popular of cosmetic surgeries. During treatment, a slender tube known as a cannula is inserted through a minor incision. The doctor will use this tube to suction out unwanted fat, thus slimming and toning the treatment area for more attractive-looking contours. Liposuction can be used as part of male breast reduction, a tummy tuck, an arm lift, or any other procedure where reducing fat is a component.

Tummy Tuck

Tummy Tuck

A slim, tight abdomen provides self-confidence as well as a better fit in swimwear, eveningwear and regular clothing. As we age, the belly accumulates stubborn fat, which can be particularly frustrating, as it does not typically respond to dieting or exercising. For women who have been pregnant, the abdomen six-pack muscles may become separated, and nothing but a surgical procedure can correct this issue.

Brazilian Butt Lift

Brazilian Butt Lift

A rounded, full rear end is typically a symbol for sensuality and femininity, so when the buttocks begin to lose volume due to the aging process, weight loss or poor genes, it can be frustrating indeed. The Brazilian butt lift procedure uses a process of fat transfer to extract fat cells from a donor area such as the hips, thighs, or abdomen, purifies them, and then injects them into the butt to create a more voluptuous aesthetic.

Thigh Lift

Thigh Lift

Bulky, heavy thighs can create a poor fit in clothing while lowering self-image and self-confidence. They can also cause chaffing and irritation, and help to hasten physical fatigue. The thigh lift procedure can beautifully reshape, sculpt and streamline both the inner and outer thighs using surgical excision, liposuction or both.

Arm Lift

Arm Lift

As we grow older, the upper arms can develop unsightly sagging, detracting from the appearance and causing lowered self-confidence, especially in sleeveless shirts or swimwear. An arm lift is a strategic attempt to slim, tone and resculpt the arms for a more youthful, vibrant aesthetic and a better fit in clothing. Dr. Gardenier will use either surgical excision of fat and excess skin, or liposuction, or some combination of the two approaches.

Body Lift

Body Lift

A body lift is a comprehensive procedure to help rid the body of excess sagging skin that has developed as a result of massive weight loss, or simply the aging process. The treatment addresses the superfluous skin and fat of the hips, waist, belly, thighs, buttocks and lower back. Dr. Gardenier will use some combination of liposuction and surgical excision to streamline your contours for a more attractive, youthful presentation.

Buttock Lift

Buttock Lift

As we age, our buttocks gradually changes shape by drooping and sagging. This can have harmful effects on one’s self image and sense of attractiveness. Although previously there was no real answer for this aging process, Dr. Gardenier offers a surgical procedure that can help an individual to look and feel more positive about their body.

Labiaplasty

Labiaplasty

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the size and restore a youthful contour to the labia. For some women the labia can become enlarged, protruding uncomfortably when wearing certain clothing, causing pain, and making you self-conscious. Labiaplasty restores the look of your genitalia, correcting asymmetry and contouring shape to restore a more rounded, trim, youthful appearance.
