Body Contouring

A tummy tuck procedure, otherwise referred to as abdominoplasty, involves the extraction of excess skin and fat to sculpt a firmer, smoother abdomen. Since each patient is unique, Dr. Derrick tailors all tummy tucks to your aesthetic vision. Additionally, women who may experience laxity in the abdominal muscles (diastasis recti) can have this corrected during a tummy tuck, as well as receive a monsplasty to establish a harmonious figure.

We can combine a tummy tuck with limited liposuction all the way to 360° Lipo, or circumferential lipo. Dr. Derrick utilizes the S.A.F.E.Lipo® technique — which he believes has improved results over traditional liposuction — involving a systematic approach to liposuction that allows for correction of contour irregularities. While this approach may require a longer procedure duration, many of our patients have found true excitement in their reflections.

Many of our patients have opted to combine 360° Lipo with a Brazilian Butt Lift to utilize the extracted fat to enhance their lower curves at the time of their initial lipo procedure. Dr. Derrick highly recommends deciding on this before your procedure to save the expense of storing the harvested fat for a later date or discarding it altogether.
