Body Procedures Des Moines
Enhance and sculpt your body with the help of body procedures. These surgeries usually involve tightening, repositioning, and reshaping parts of the body with plastic surgery. We perform several body procedures in Des Moines to help our patients look younger and fitter.
Tummy Tuck
The tummy tuck reduces excess fat and skin, giving you a flatter and firmer abdomen. It is ideal for people with an ample midsection due to excess fat deposits, hanging excess skin, and stretched abdominal muscles.
Liposuction
Liposuction is ideal for people who have found it difficult to get rid of stubborn excess fat despite exercising and dieting. It involves inserting a thin suctioning cannula through tiny incisions in the target areas and using it to remove unwanted excess fat. The best candidates have elastic and firm skin in the targeted areas and are already at or near their ideal weight.
Smartlipo™
SmartLipo uses a laser to melt excess fat cells, which are then removed via medical suction. This technique also offers the benefit of tightening the skin of the area. SmartLipo is performed under anesthesia and can be used to target areas like the arms, face, neck, bra line, male breasts, saddle bags, abdomen, inner and outer thighs, love handles, and knees.
VASER Lipo
VASERlipo is a minimally invasive body-contouring technique that removes excess fat. It suits those who find it hard to lose stubborn fat despite dieting and exercising. VASERlipo differs from traditional liposuction in that it uses ultrasonic energy to dislodge the fat cells, allowing for faster healing and smoother outcomes.
Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover combines procedures like a tummy tuck, breast lift, liposuction, and breast augmentation to restore a woman’s pre-pregnancy body. Its top benefits include contouring a sagging abdomen, repairing large or stretched nipples, reducing stubborn fat, lifting drooping breasts, and restoring volume to deflated breasts after breastfeeding.
Body lift Surgery
A body lift aims to give you a slimmer and more toned figure. It can remove excess loose skin in several areas, especially the buttocks and midsection. The surgery requires making an incision around the waist, getting rid of excess skin in the area, and tightening the remaining skin to get the body contours you want.
Body Contouring After Massive Weight Loss
After dramatic weight loss, a great deal of excess skin hangs from the body. Pockets of leftover stubborn fat may also be present. With body contouring after massive weight loss, these issues can be corrected.
This procedure may involve a breast lift to correct sagging breasts after a significant weight loss, a body lift around the midsection, and brachioplasty to tighten the skin on the upper arms.
Arm lift Surgery
An arm lift can tighten the loose sagging skin in the upper arms caused by aging or significant weight loss. Excess fat can also be removed.
It involves making an incision in the armpit for mild lifts or one that runs from the armpit to the elbow for other cases. It uses excision and liposuction to enhance the contours of the upper arms.
Vaginal Rejuvenation
Vaginal rejuvenation with ThermiVa seeks to improve sensation, increase vaginal moisture, and tighten the labia. Additionally, it can correct urinary incontinence.
We also offer PRP vaginal rejuvenation, which uses platelets and plasma from the patient’s own blood to achieve vaginal revitalization. The platelets are injected into the vaginal area to reduce pain during intercourse, help women achieve orgasms, and reduce vaginal dryness.
