Finish the job where exercise and dieting fail. Although no type of liposuction is a substitute for dieting and exercise, liposuction can remove stubborn areas of fat that do not respond to traditional weight loss methods.

Very few men or women have what they would consider the perfect shape. Quite often the complaint is that some area of their body is too large.

Liposuction is an outpatient procedure that helps to re-contour or “sculpt” the body by removing unwanted localized deposits of fat from specific areas (i.e. abdomen, hips, thighs, knees, chin, and neck). Through a tiny incision, a narrow tube is inserted to the fat layer that lies deep beneath the skin. The fat cells are then broken apart and suctioned out. Depending on the size of the area and the amount of fat being removed, the time required to perform liposuction will vary.

Following liposuction, a compression garment must be worn for an extended period to optimize results. Most people return to work within the week following the procedure, although a feeling of soreness will be experienced for several weeks. Liposuction is not a replacement for diet and exercise, and it is not a means of weight loss, but it is a safe, effective way to improve problem areas of your body.

VASERLipo® utilizes ultrasound and radio frequency to provide a smooth contour for sculpting away unwanted fat accumulations that are not responding to diet and exercise. This single procedure is not a means of weight loss but will enhance a smooth contour by sculpting and shaping areas.

Smooth, flatten and flatten your tummy for a sexy, toned look! This major surgical procedure can dramatically reduce the appearance of a protruding abdomen giving your abdomen a more slender appearance.

A firm, flat stomach is desirable for both men and women. Age, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and other factors can lead to relaxation of the abdominal muscles, and an excess collection of fat in the area.

The goal of Abdominoplasty is to remove excess skin and tighten the underlying musculature, resulting in a flatter, firmer, tighter stomach and a thinner waist as well. Following the procedure, a compression garment must be worn for an extended period to optimize results.

A Mini Abdominoplasty may be recommended if all the stomach fullness is at or below the belly button and the candidate is within 15-20 pounds of their ideal weight. This mini tummy tuck tightens the lower abdominal wall skin only, and produces the shortest scar of Abdominoplasty procedures. With this outpatient surgery, most normal activities may be resumed within one week, with a return to sports activities within 4-6 weeks.

A Standard or Extended Abdominoplasty requires an incision between the pubic hairline and navel. Through the incision, weakened abdominal muscles are repaired and excess fat, tissue, and skin is removed. The procedure is outpatient, but the operative time and recovery period is longer than with the Mini Abdominoplasty.

Sweating is a natural, necessary part of our anatomical make-up that enables our body to cool itself. But excessive sweating – not necessarily related to exertion, temperature, or emotion – indicates a condition known as hyperhidrosis. Hyperhidrosis can occur anywhere there are sweat glands including the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, face, trunk, and underarms. This condition causes embarrassment and misery.

The cause is unknown, but now there is help for axillary (underarm) hyperhidrosis: BOTOX® Cosmetic injections. The injections are administered locally (under the arms) with an ultra-thin needle. After one full week, patients experience the full effect of the treatment and can expect – on average – six months of dryness. As a board-certified Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Passmore is a knowledgeable and experienced injector of BOTOX® Cosmetic.

Morpheus8 provides non-surgical skin tightening that results in a younger looking you. By combining micro-needling technology with radiofrequency (RF) energy, this fractional skin treatment can literally double down on the stimulation of new collagen. Targeting the deeper layers of tissue, skin of the face and body can be refined, resurfaced, and remodeled.

It is minimally invasive, using a matrix of micro pins to renew the deeper layers of the skin with almost no patient downtime. Visible results can be seen within a few days, but typically after three weeks the most noticeable results appear. Improvements continue up to three months after treatment.

Three sessions are required, generally four weeks apart. Since patient downtime is minimal, makeup can be applied 1-2 days after the treatment. Patients should expect to see slight redness for a few days depending on treatment parameters. Patients should moisturize the treatment area and avoid direct sun exposure.

Morpheus8 is a highly effectively technology that can be used on any skin color and skin type. The most commonly treated area is the face but it can also be used on the periorbital area, abdomen, thighs, legs, and buttocks.

Diet and exercise can help achieve more slender upper arms by reducing fat, but no amount of toning exercise can help with loose, stretched skin. If you have tried what you can to tone and tighten your arms with a healthy diet and exercise, but still have loose, sagging skin on your upper arms, an upper arm lift could offer the results you are seeking. 

So, what is involved with an upper arm lift?

Also called brachioplasty, upper arm lift surgery restores a firmer, more youthful and slender appearance to upper arms that have lost tone due to aging, weight loss, or genetics. The procedure involves a linear incision on the underside of the upper arm through which excess skin and fat is removed and underlying tissues are tightened.

The brachioplasty procedure is typically performed as an outpatient procedure with general anesthesia. Incisions are located on the underside of the arm, so scars are naturally concealed in most positions. Scars should fade significantly with proper care.

Following surgery, patients go home wearing compression garments around their arms. Activity will need to be limited; patients should refrain from heavy lifting, reaching, or straining for several weeks. Most patients can return to a desk job within a week, and can resume exercise about 4 to 6 weeks after an upper arm lift. Keep in mind that if this surgery is combined with another procedure, recovery may be longer.

Is an upper arm lift right for you?

Picture yourself waving to a friend, writing on a white board, or getting your groove on the dance floor. Are you focusing on the joy of these activities—or worrying about how your arms look?

At Passmore Plastic Surgery, we believe you deserve to enjoy life with confidence. If you feel limited in what you do or wear because of sagging, loose skin on your upper arms, you will benefit from a consultation to learn more about a personalized upper arm lift procedure. Our goal is to help you make confident decisions when it comes to enhancing your appearance.
