Body Contour Surgery Procedures

Surgical body contouring removes excess sagging skin and fat while improving the shape of the underlying support tissue, resulting in a better-proportioned appearance with smoother contours.

Body contouring is especially effective following a major weight loss.

How long does body contouring last?

You’ll see the results of a body contouring procedure right away, and your results will last for a long time if you maintain your weight and keep fit following the procedure.

Are body contour procedures safe?

All body contouring procedures performed by board-certified plastic surgeons have been deemed to be safe. However, all surgeries have risks and can have immediate side effects such as bruising, swelling, stinging, tingling and redness that will improve as you heal. Dr. Kahler will explain these to you during your initial consultation.

Is all body contouring invasive?

No! We offer minimally-invasive body contouring — a procedure called BodyTite — that produces great results for many people without the scarring associated with regular body contouring surgery. BodyTite uses radio frequency energy to tighten skin, stimulate collagen production and improve contours. It is effective for anyone with sagging and/or wrinkled skin and contour problems due to childbirth, aging or moderate weight loss. Learn more about BodyTite.
