Body Contouring Helps Regain Self-Confidence

“Tummy tuck” or abdominoplasty is now a very popular cosmetic uplift procedure. The removal of excess skin, unwanted scars, and stretch marks is something people want on their abdomen.

In other words, it is one more form of body contouring that women are making a beeline for.
But present day plastic surgeons have their own ideas.

“Variations in abdominal contour require modifications”, says a specialist of abdominoplasty in Maryland. “Today, I combine liposuction with abdominoplasty to get better results”.

Yes, cosmetic surgeons seem to be aiming at precise results.
With liposuction, they address small fat deposits because with this procedure patients experience little or no scarring, and insignificant morbidity.


And then surgeons also perform a procedure called the mini tummy tuck. This tightens the loose skin on the lower abdomen. Here, surgeons perform a short, horizontal incision on the lower tummy and leave the navel intact.

According to specialists of abdominoplasty in Frederick MD, this procedure yields limited results and so is specifically preferred by patients who desire lesser recovery time.
On the other end of the spectrum, women who desire a more comprehensive cosmetic enhancement, go in for what is called mommy makeover.

This includes breast lift, tummy tuck, and liposuction - all rolled into one.

“My patients for mommy makeover are women who desire to restore their pre-pregnancy figure”, says a MD based cosmetic surgeon.

But sadly, not all women are ideal candidates for tummy tucks.

Here is what doctors’ recommendations are:

  • Stable weight during the last few months and a strict no to grossly obese patients. The benchmark is less than 30 BMI.
  • No history or present status of medical issues such as coronary heart disease, diabetes, or labile hypertension.
  • A lifestyle devoid of smoking, or excessive alcohol consumption
  • No to extreme abdominal protrusions
  • Mentally properly motivated with realistic expectations
The essential advantages of the present day techniques are the capability to deliver consistently safe and great outcomes.

Moreover, patients suffer very little pain compared to earlier. The good news is scars fade and soften over a period of time.

It is no wonder abdominoplasty is associated with a high degree of patient satisfaction. Liposuction and tummy tuck rank among the top five cosmetic surgical procedures in 2016.

Doctors, nevertheless, warn patients if they want the results to remain long lasting they must avoid weight gain and follow a balanced diet.

“Yes, I have to follow my doctor’s advice if the abdominal contour is to remain intact and my self confidence as well”, says a Maryland based stay-at-home mom.

Botox Likely To See a New Threshold in Treatment

Are you feeling grouchy? This is a question most of us hear some time or the other.    And it is not necessarily because you are depressed. It is the frown lines on your face that could be making you look so. “People keep telling me to put on a happy face”, says a 52-year-old Washington stay-at-home. “But I wonder how can I feel better by just putting on a smiling face?” Maybe you can. One of the latest researches suggests that by paralyzing the key facial muscles, a person can be treated of depression. Yes, Botox has the potential to prevent individuals from frowning or giving that discontented look – and eventually feel vivacious. Psychiatrists say a person’s expressions can exert a powerful influence on his or her mood. Interestingly, it can mean we are happy because we smile and not the other way around. Those supporting this theory are of the view that there is a connection between the brain and the muscles of facial expression. Brain m...
