mommy makeover - Fort Worth, TX
A Mommy Makeover indicates breast and body rejuvenation after pregnancies. The combination of procedures involved is determined by the patient’s concerns and desires and is decided at consultation. A Mommy Makeover can consist of breast enhancement, body contouring and/or vaginal rejuvenation.
abdominoplasty - Fort Worth, TX
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a procedure to address changes in the abdomen related to pregnancies or massive weight gain and loss. This procedure allows tightening of the abdominal wall muscles and correction of rectus diastasis, a finding related to distention of the abdominal wall with pregnancy.

Liposuction is the removal of excess pockets of fat on certain areas of the body. The most common areas include:
• Abdomen
• Knees
• Neck & Jowls
• Flanks (muffin top)
• Upper back
• Outer Thighs (saddle bags)
• Inner thighs
EMSCULPT - Fort Worth, TX
EMSCULPT is the first non-invasive procedure to build muscle in the abdominal area and lift the buttock non-invasively. 16% average increase in muscle mass and 19% average fat reduction in 4 treatments completed over a two week period. Results in 4 weeks!
Brachioplasty - arm LIFT
A brachioplasty is removal of loose skin and fat on the upper arms, generally a result of massive weight loss.
THIGHPLASTY - THIGH LIFT
A thigh lift can be performed as a standard, full lift or a modified, short scar lift. A full thigh lift addresses loose skin of the inner thighs from the groin to the knees. A modified or short scar medial thigh lift is indicated for patients with skin laxity limited to the upper inner thighs. In this case the incisions do not extend to the knees.
Lower body lift
A body lift is a procedure that addresses loose skin on both the front and the back of the body. Most patients after bariatric surgery and massive weight loss reach their desired weight but are left with significant loose skin on their abdomen, buttocks and outer thighs. This procedure includes a tummy tuck with incisions extended all the way around the body to redrape the skin of the buttocks and outer thighs.
fat transfers - Fort worth, TX
A process where a patient’s fat in an area of concern is aspirated…just like liposuction…but the fat is collected in a sterile process that allows it to be reinjected as a filler. The most common areas for fat grafting are the face: lip augmentation, facial fillers, soft depressions around the mouth. Fat can be grafted to the breasts to improve contour after reconstruction or cosmetic procedures or used to touch up areas after liposuction on the body.
