In patients who possess more skin that can be addressed with liposuction alone, skin excision is suggested. Unwanted skin of the arms is removed through a Brachioplasty. An Abdominoplasty serves to remove unwanted skin and stretch marks form the abdomen, and when needed, tighten weakened muscles resulting from significant weight fluctuations. Occasionally, excess skin is removed from the medial and lateral thighs by performing a Thigh Lift; and when performed in conjunction with an Abdominoplasty, is called a Body Lift.
These procedures enable patients to obtain the strong contours associated with male physiques that are simply not possible without removal of unwanted skin. Patients are always admitted to the Paradise Valley Surgical Recovery Center at least overnight to ensure ongoing safety and comfort.
