Popular Summertime Plastic Surgeries: Tummy Tucks

Are you afraid to break out the two piece because of that protruding tummy? Then a tummy tuck might be a plastic surgery to consider. So, before you put your bikini back in the drawer or decide against going to the St Louis River, consider the advantages of a tummy tuck from Dr. Richard S Werner Plastic Surgery.

What is a tummy tuck?

A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) tucks in the protruding stomach to make your abdomen firmer and flatter, by removing fat and skin, and tightening the muscles around the abdomen. It can be tailored to your specific needs. With the right diet and exercise, and pending no major life changes, your stomach should remain this way for years to come.

What kind of people get tummy tucks?

If you’ve just had a baby and want to tighten those stomach muscles, then you might be a good candidate. The best candidates usually wait until they’ve lost all their unwanted weight, as losing a lot of weight after the surgery may complicate results.

What can a tummy tuck do for me?

A tummy tuck will help boost your confidence, and if you fear looking into the mirror, you won’t be able to get enough of your reflection after the surgery.

Popular Summertime Plastic Surgeries: Breast Augmentation

There is nothing wrong with being ashamed of the size of your breasts. It’s common among many women, and can be rectified with breast augmentation, known commonly as breast implants. Many of our clients prefer to get this cosmetic surgery done before heading off to the Lake Superior Beaches, in order to get that dream body of which they’ve been dreaming.

Women who are:

• Dissatisfied with the size of their breasts

Popular Summertime Plastic Surgeries: Liposuction

With summer nearing closer, many want to get that beach body ready for a trip to one of Minnesota’s beaches. One of the most popular plastic surgeries seen by the staff at Richard S. Werner Plastic Surgery is liposuction. If you’re not happy with your physique, this cosmetic surgery may be an option to consider.

What is liposuction?

Liposuction (or body contouring) is basically a suctioning of fat. It’s used primarily to treat lipodystrophy, which is characterized as protruding fatty deposits. This can be used on various areas of the body, including the flanks, abdomen, saddlebag areas and more.

We’ll insert a small, hollow tube into an incision, which are placed inconspicuously on your body. The tube is connected to a vacuum unit, and as your plastic surgeon guides the tubing, unwanted fat will be sucked out.

What kinds of people get liposuction?

Liposuction patients range from teenagers to the elderly. We’ve performed the surgery on both men and women. The procedure works best with persons who have a good skin tone, and small excess fat pockets in certain areas.

What can liposuction do for me?

It will help sculpt your body by removing fatty deposits from areas of your choosing. You will see permanent results soon after the surgery.
