4 Minute Read:
Every new year, women and men come up with resolutions and goals that will allow them to do better and improve their well-being.
Weight loss is one of the most common personal goals people set at the beginning of the year. They do this for health reasons and even to improve their appearance.
Unfortunately, if you would like to cut some pounds in 2022 to improve your appearance, you might end up disappointed with stubborn pockets of fat that might refuse to respond to exercise and diet. In some cases, abrupt weight loss can also leave you with loose skin and sagging breasts, which will not do your body contour any good.
The good news is that you can solve (or at least help) some of these issues by going for a body contouring procedure. Here are some popular plastic surgery procedures you can consider in 2022.
Tummy Tuck
This cosmetic procedure seeks to reduce excess fat and skin from the abdominal area. The procedure also tightens the abdominal muscle to give patients a more toned abdomen. If you have recently given birth or lost weight, but excess skin and stubborn fat are standing in your way to getting a flat midsection, tummy tuck surgery is the body contouring procedure to go for in 2022.
If you are only looking to remove excess skin, a panniculectomy may be ideal.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a less invasive cosmetic procedure that involves suctioning out fat from targeted areas. It can be used to treat areas such as the abdomen, back, upper arms, thighs, and hips.
Therefore, if you have stubborn pockets of fat that are refusing to respond to physical exercise and diet, but you do not want (or do not need) to go for a more invasive skin removal surgery, liposuction is an excellent option to consider.
Breast Enhancement
Breast surgery (including augmentation, reduction, and lift) will always be popular, no matter the year.
A breast lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure that treats sagging breasts and downward-pointing nipples. It involves removing excess skin and shifting the nipples to a more raised position. Consequently, in addition to reducing sagging, the procedure will also make your breasts look fuller to improve your overall contour and give you a more youthful appearance.
If you want to enhance the size of your breasts, you can combine breast lift surgery with breast augmentation (using implants).
Alternatively, if you hope to slim down your breasts, a breast reduction may be just up your alley.
Start 2022 With the Body of Your Dreams!
Although weight loss can significantly improve your body contour, there will likely be some pockets of fats that will not go away no matter how hard you work out.
In such a situation, you will need a plastic surgeon to guide you on the right body contouring procedure. Contact Dr. Jennifer Boll’s practice at 480-833-5200 for more information on the best body contouring procedures to get in 2022.
