Body Procedures
Whether from age, lifestyle, or life events, many men and women find themselves frustrated by various issues with their body aesthetic. Some of these issues include the presence of stubborn fat in parts of the body as well as loose and sagging skin. While it is common to desire a more contoured and sculpted physical appearance, the truth is that achieving some of these cosmetic improvements is often only a plastic surgery away.
Dr. Grotting offers several cosmetic procedures that help men and women look better and feel more confident with their appearance. Whether you undergo these procedures as standalone surgeries or choose to combine them, you can look forward to a stunning transformation that can help you achieve the body you’ve always wanted.
Abdominoplasty
Abdominoplasty (also known as tummy tuck surgery) is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures available to men and women. Because of age or life events, such as pregnancy, many people experience loose and separated abdominal muscles, excess fat in their abdomens, and sagging skin in their midsections. With an abdominoplasty, liposuction may be used to remove pockets of fat, and surgical techniques are used to remove excess, hanging skin and repair loose or separated abdominal muscles. Abdominoplasty recovery generally takes anywhere from six weeks to three months. After your tummy tuck, you can enjoy a more sculpted midsection that can help you look and feel better than ever.
Brachioplasty
While the arms don’t always come to mind when we think of body contouring procedures, the reality is that one of the most common concerns that patients have about their bodies is the presence of sagging skin in the underside of their upper arms. Struggling with “bat wings” can cause many people to feel self-conscious and embarrassed. However, brachioplasty (also known as arm lift surgery) helps men and women achieve more sculpted and toned arms by removing excess fat and trimming excess skin. Most patients require a recovery period of about two weeks after their arm lift. Once your result settles in place, you can look forward to contoured arms that can help with your entire body aesthetic. You will be able to wear sleeveless tops again without the need to cover up your arms!

CoolSculpting®
CoolSculpting® is a non-surgical treatment that effectively reduces pockets of fat in various areas of the body, including the arms, abdomen, hips, and thighs. This treatment uses cryolipolysis, which is a method that gets rid of unwanted fat by freezing and destroying the fat. For your treatment, the CoolSculpting® applicator will be placed on the treatment area. The applicator is used to freeze the targeted fat, killing the fat cells without damaging the surrounding skin. Over the next several weeks, the dead fat cells are naturally eliminated from your body to give you a more sculpted and contoured physical appearance. For optimal results, most patients require two or more CoolSculpting® treatments. Because we offer liposuction as well as non-surgical CoolSculpting®, we will help you decide which is right for you.
Liposuction
Liposuction surgery is one of the most versatile and effective plastic surgery procedures available to men and women of all ages. This minimally invasive procedure helps to remove excess and stubborn fat from various areas of the body, including the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, and arms. Not only can liposuction be performed as a standalone procedure, but it is often used in conjunction with other surgical procedures, such as abdominoplasty, brachioplasty, and fat grafting. For this procedure, small incisions are made in the target area. A small tube called a cannula is inserted through the incisions and is used to loosen the subcutaneous fat. This fat is then vacuumed out of your body through the cannula to leave you with a more trimmed and defined appearance. Most patients are able to return to work after one week, though they must still refrain from strenuous activities for up to six weeks.

Brazilian Butt Lift
Many women suffer from a small, flat, and unpronounced backside, which can often cause them to feel self-conscious and embarrassed. However, for patients who are looking to improve the appearance of their buttocks, a Brazilian Butt Lift (also known as buttock augmentation with fat) can help increase the volume and shape of their derrière. For this procedure, liposuction is used to harvest fat from another area of your body (usually the hips, abdomen, or thighs). This fat is processed and then is strategically injected into your buttocks to give you a fuller, more shapely backside that you can feel proud and confident of having. Most patients require six to eight weeks to recover from their Brazilian Butt Lift procedure. Once the final results settle, patients can enjoy wearing the clothes (such as bikini bathing suits and dresses) that they’ve always wanted to wear.
Mommy Makeover
Mommy Makeover surgery is a comprehensive combination of breast and body contouring surgeries that target the areas most affected by pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, and weight fluctuations. Due to the immense impact that having a child (or children) has on the body, it is very common for the body to not revert back to how it looked prior to pregnancy. This can be frustrating for many women who struggle to regain their toned, feminine form. Mommy Makeover surgery is a personalized combination of techniques that target your specific concerns. While not required, most women consider some of the following: breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, liposuction, and tummy tuck surgery.
