Whether you want to smooth, lift, or define certain areas, our board-certified surgeons personalize every treatment plan to align with your anatomy and aesthetic goals. Here’s how body contouring works to help you reveal your most confident self.

Understanding Body Contouring

Body contouring encompasses a range of surgical procedures that reshape and enhance the body by removing unwanted fat and skin, tightening underlying tissues, and improving definition. It’s ideal for individuals who have lost significant weight, experienced pregnancy, or wish to refine areas resistant to diet and exercise. At Athēnix, we combine precision techniques with artistry to create natural-looking, lasting results that celebrate your unique silhouette.

Midsection and Core Contouring

• Liposuction: This procedure targets and removes stubborn fat deposits from areas like the abdomen, flanks, and waist. Using advanced liposuction techniques, our surgeons sculpt a slimmer, more refined look with carefully contoured definition.
• Tummy Tuck: Also known as abdominoplasty, a tummy tuck removes loose skin and excess fat while tightening weakened abdominal muscles. The result is a smoother, flatter midsection and improved core support.
• Body Lift: For those with significant skin laxity after weight loss or aging, a body lift removes loose skin and excess fat to improve contour around the abdomen, hips, and lower back.

Lower Body Contouring

• Thigh Lift: A thigh lift smooths and firms the thighs by eliminating excess skin and fat for a more sculpted lower-body silhouette. This procedure helps refine proportions and enhance comfort and confidence in clothing.
• Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL): This treatment uses your own fat harvested through liposuction to naturally enhance and lift the buttocks, creating a curvier, more balanced figure.

Upper Body Contouring

• Arm Lift: An arm lift removes sagging skin and excess tissue to restore definition to the upper arms, resulting in a toned and youthful look.
• Axilla Lift: This specialized procedure tightens and refines the underarm area for those experiencing sagging or discomfort due to aging or weight changes.

Comprehensive and Combination Procedures

• Mommy Makeover: This customizable combination of procedures restores your pre-pregnancy figure, addressing changes in the abdomen, breasts, and other areas affected by childbirth. Each plan is uniquely designed to fit your goals and lifestyle.
• Fat Transfer: Using your body’s own fat cells, we can restore volume and shape to areas such as the face, breasts, buttocks, or hands. This natural approach enhances contour while maintaining balance and harmony throughout your figure.
