Weight Loss Contouring FAQ
Can I undergo a body contouring and lifting procedure at the same time as other surgeries?
For many patients, yes. Your surgeon will determine if combining surgical procedures is safe for you and allows for a manageable recovery.
How long is the recovery time following a Lift procedure?
Recovery time varies patient to patient. It can be dependent on the surgical procedure received, overall health, and occupation.
Will the scars be noticeable following surgery?
It’s totally normal to have visible scars directly following any surgical procedure. However, most patients find that the benefits of these procedures far outweigh the possibility of a visible scar. Scars tend to fade over time in most patients. Our skilled surgeons will take appropriate measures to minimize scaring, and educate you on proper scar management. We also offer a variety of products to assist in scar recovery.
Why doesn’t the Centre for Plastic Surgery offer gluteal enhancements?
At this time, we have determined that the research shows that these procedures do not meet the safety standards we feel are appropriate for our patients. For more information about the overall safety of buttocks enhancement procedures, please click here.
