Now that the New Year is quickly approaching, it is time to consider how to achieve that flat tummy that you have been working so hard to obtain, but still seems to be so elusive! Dr. Amy T. Bandy specializes in body contouring through either liposculpture or tummy tuck to help you achieve your best tummy. During consultation, Dr. Amy T. Bandy will examine you and discuss with you what your ideal goals are. Depending on the quality of the elasticity of your skin, Dr. Bandy may determine that liposuction or liposculpting will be your best option to attain your goals. But if you have severe strech marks, or loose hanging skin, then abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, may be recommended by Dr. Amy Bandy to give you your flattest, tightest results. A full tummy tuck will tighten the skin of the entire abdomen, whereas a mini-tummy tuck will tighten the lower abdominal skin. Show off those abdominal muscles that you have worked so hard to achieve, but are still hiding behind the excess skin or fatty layer that you have! Dr. Amy Bandy can help you get the New You for the New Year!

Body Contouring Newport Beach, Orange County, Torrance
In modern society, the perception of beauty pertaining to the human body emphasizes a lean, youthful appearance. This has brought about an increased demand for both surgical and non-surgical attempts to trim off excess fat and unsightly bulges. Areas that are resistant to diet and exercise can be altered by removing unwanted fatty tissue and loose skin by either liposculpture or direct surgical excision or a combination of both.
By the time a person reaches adulthood, they have acquired all of the fat cells that they will have throughout their life. The number and distribution of fat cells is genetically determined and unique to each individual. Women typically accumulate fat in the lower trunk, hips, upper thighs and buttocks; men tend to accumulate fat evenly around the trunk, in the abdomen and “love handles”. Persons who have specific areas of fat tissue deposits and are at or near their ideal body weight are ideal candidates for liposuction if their skin has sufficient elasticity. People considering liposuction should be aware that liposculpture improves contour but does not eliminate wrinkles and is not a treatment for obesity. To determine if you are a candidate for body contouring by liposuction, a complimentary evaluation with Dr. Bandy will answer most of your questions.

Accumulation of fat in the abdominal area can be treated by either liposculpture or a tummy tuck in Orange County. The factors that are important in determining which will be best, or whether a combination of both is optimum, are the elasticity of the skin, the presence or absence of stretch marks and whether the abdominal muscles have been separated. Some women who have had one or multiple pregnancies may not be a candidate for liposuction due to the loss of their skin elasticity and the separation of their abdominal wall muscles. Rapid weight loss often makes it necessary to obtain the best results by direct surgical excision of excess skin. Virtually all areas of the body can be altered to improve contour, eliminate sagging skin and highlight body image.
