Body Shaping
Abdominoplasty:
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that offers an enhanced body contour for women and men who have loose abdominal skin and fat concentrated in the abdominal area.
Abdominoplasty is appropriate for the majority of women. It removes flaccid abdominal skin and tightens muscles that have been separated and weakened by pregnancy or weight gain. This procedure is particularly effective in women who are finished having children.
Liposuction may be performed at the same time to create a nice contour, although this is up to the individual surgeon and patient.
Combituck:
The newest method of performing an Abdominoplasty. Another name for a Lipoabdominoplasty in the surgical literature, the ALABAMA COMBITUCK was perfected by Dr. Schloemer over the past two years. It combines full liposuction and a skin excision with or without re-locating the belly button. Even small umbilical hernia's can be fixed at the same time.
The ALABAMA COMBITUCK requires NO general anesthetic, just mild sedation.
Liposuction:
Improve your shape by slimming areas of your body that exercise just can’t help tone. Liposuction removes fat deposits with a cannula and surgical vacuum. Some of the common locations for liposuction include neck, upper arms, abdomen, hips and thighs.
