Coming Full Circle – A 360-Degree Solution For an Hourglass Figure

Beyond the tummy tuck.

Tired of your apple middle? Do you dream of a classic hourglass shape? Perhaps you never had a “real” waist? Or maybe, you want to recover the waist you used to show off? For men, do you covet a six-packish mid-section?

If you are considering a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) to correct mid-section problems and achieve your goals for your appearance, you may want to re-consider.

A tummy tuck can flatten your belly. But, a tell-tale muffin top overhang, or cascading back bra line tissue or flabby flanks are all detractors that can still have a negative impact on your overall appearance. And, any real buttock definition that balances your shape is often lost against a large muffin top around the entire waistline.

But, there is a more comprehensive solution to achieve the outcome you really desire.

More for your investment. 

The Lucas Center offers our patients more – a much more valuable solution for your investment in a 360-degree complete reshaping of your body to get the sleeker, better defined body contour you desire. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jay Lucas has extensive experience in this customized 360-degree reshaping around the body from the midsection, to the belly, to the back of the abdomen, including waist, hips and flanks.

What does a 360-Degree Re-shaping involve?

This comprehensive solution targets multiple regions to create a more balanced, proportional appearance. The Lucas Center explains this 360-degree body reshaping features sculpting the abdomen, posterior bra line and flanks.

It utilizes full lipo-abdominoplasty, incorporating Power-assisted lipo-contouring (PAL) with SAFE techniques for the posterior bra line, and flanks to give that sleeker appearance circumferentially you desire. Dr. Lucas calls it a “powerfully effective procedure, with very positive outcomes, even for overweight individuals.”

PAL Power-assisted liposuction is “performed using a special cannula which uses tiny, rapid vibrations.”

(docshop.com). PAL acts on the fibrous network encircling fat cells that allows them to easily move from areas of relative excess to areas of relative deficiencies ensuring a smoother contour. This allows Dr. Lucas to be more efficient and precise during the lipo-contouring procedures compared to traditional liposuction techniques which is a true advantage for patient’s outcomes.

Handling the love handles – and more

Liposuction and tummy tucks were 2 of the top 5 surgical aesthetic procedures performed in 2018 for both women and men, according to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. While liposuction is usually done on one area at a time, 360-degree liposuction allows your plastic surgeon to be more precise for a complete rejuvenation. Instead of two separate surgeries, we can target multiple regions of the midsection in one procedure where stubborn fat may be a problem, the front and back of the torso (abdominals, both upper and lower, the obliques, “love handles”, and the mid- to lower-back) to achieve improved circumferential results and a more sculpted, better balanced appearance.

The comprehensive procedure permanently removes this stubborn fat that typically will not budge with diet or exercise – and it will not come back. As a bonus, once the fat from the abdomen and flanks is removed, most people have the appearance of more well-defined buttocks.
