Body Contouring Beverly Hills

The most common type of body contouring patients Dr. Ghavami sees are those who have had children and who have lost their skin elasticity and have areas of fatty tissue that makes them look disproportionate. Restoring these curved can be dramatic and many of our patients are shocked at how good they look. Many times patients say that “they did not think this was possible.” In the media, procedures that restore a woman’s body back to its natural beautiful state before having children, are known as “mommy makeovers.” A Mommy Makeover usually involve a combination of a liposuction, tummy tuck, and a breast lift. Sometimes these procedures are done separately, and in the right patient, can be done all together. Today there is a greater need for body contouring after severe weight loss.

Massive weight loss patients have lost a lot of weight and have dramatically dropped their BMI (Body Mass Index). Patients who have lost a lot of weight after either a "lap band" or formal gastric bypass ("stomach stapling") can have large amounts of loose skin and fat everywhere from the face down to their ankles. Newer procedures have been designed to treat these distinctive anatomical areas while creating proportionate curves and body silhouette lines that sometimes were never there throughout the patient’s entire life. Procedure range from lower body lifts, thigh lifts, breast lifts (often staged with a later augmentation), arm lifts, and even specialized facelifts.
