New Year, Better Body

If your goal for this new year is to lose fats to have a better body shape, then body contouring aesthetic procedures may be for you. Here's good news: You can do something about your extra fat in a safe and natural way. Liposuction and other body contouring procedures are techniques for sculpting the body as you achieve a better body this new year. Through these procedures, fat can be removed from different parts of the body and help promote a more beautiful figure.

Liposuction

Here are some of the body contouring aesthetic procedures to achieve a better body shape: 

Liposuction

This procedure aims to slim and reshape the body by removing unwanted body fat through laser heat in areas with excess fat.

Also commonly referred to as “lipo”, this procedure is very common among patients who want to improve the shape, proportion, and contour of the body. The procedure can also be carried out along with other cosmetic procedures such as a tummy tuck, and breast augmentation.

Arm lift/Thigh lift

Armlift/Thighlift

Both arm and thigh lift are cosmetic procedures, which involve the removal of excess skin to firm up loose skin on the specific limb. This procedure helps create a more youthful and tighter appearance.

For an arm lift, our expert PAPRAS surgeons will typically make an incision either under the upper or the back of the arm, an area where scarring is more unnoticeable. Although an outpatient procedure, which typically takes anywhere from 2-4 hours, recovery period can take anywhere from six weeks to one year, for the area to heal completely.

Similarly, for a thigh lift, the area of the cut is typically made within the upper and inner thigh. Ahead of the procedure, your PAPRAS surgeon may conduct a Liposuction before, during, or after your thigh lift.

Gluteal Augmentation

Gluteal augmentation

Typically referred to as “butt implants,” this cosmetic procedure involves the placement of implants within the buttocks area to enhance the shape, add volume, and improve the physique.

This procedure involves grafting or harvesting fat from other areas of the body (such as the abdomen or thighs), and then injecting this into the buttocks. To achieve a natural look, this is oftentimes accompanied by inserting a silicon implant in the buttocks.

Gluteal augmentation is also typically done simultaneously with a Liposuction to control the buttocks area and to achieve a more holistic and natural look.

Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation

Also referred to as “boob job,” this cosmetic procedure involves the enhancement of the size and shape of the breasts, usually conducted through the insertion of implants beneath the breast tissue.

Depending on your body type, breast anatomy, and skin elasticity, our PAPRAS surgeons can help recommend the most suitable implant type and size, and incision area to achieve a softer, natural-looking augmentation, with minimal scarring.
