Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck—also called abdominoplasty—can create a smoother, slimmer, and tauter abdomen by removing loose skin and excess fat while tightening the underlying musculature. A tummy tuck may provide both aesthetic and functional relief for patients struggling with loose, hanging skin and/or diastasis recti—a condition where the abdominal muscles become separated, oftentimes as a result of pregnancy. Dr. Amaka performs a drainless tummy tuck, utilizing progressive tension sutures to close off the space and produce an athletic contour, a topic she has written extensively about.

Liposuction

Liposuction is designed to break up and remove targeted pockets of fat, resulting in slimmer, smoother body contours. Liposuction can be performed virtually anywhere on the body, and the fat harvested during the procedure can oftentimes be purified and injected into other areas—such as the breasts or buttocks—to add desirable volume.

Mommy Makeover

A mommy makeover, also known as a mommy restoration, is a customizable procedure that can help women whose bodies have been impacted by pregnancy, breastfeeding, and childbearing regain their pre-baby figure. Each treatment plan is personalized to suit the unique needs of the patient, but common procedures incorporated into a mommy restoration include: tummy tuck, cosmetic breast enhancement (typically a breast augmentation, lift, or reduction), and vaginal rejuvenation.

Bra-Line Lift

A bra-line lift—sometimes also called an upper back lift—is designed to address excess skin and fat accumulations that cause bulging and sagging around the bra band and straps. The end result can be a firmer, smoother back with improved contours under clothing.

Body Lift

A body lift can remove, reshape, and recontour excess skin and fat from the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs to reveal a leaner, firmer, and more sculpted physique. It is often performed after massive weight loss in order to better accentuate a patient’s figure and address concerns relating to hanging skin.

Brazilian Butt Lift

A Brazilian Butt Lift—commonly referred to as a BBL—utilizes liposuction to shape the torso, and fat transfer in order to add volume to the hips and buttocks. Excess fat is harvested from other regions of the body—often the abdomen, which can result in additional aesthetic benefits—and then strategically and carefully injected into the hips and buttocks to enhance their overall size and shape.

Buttock Implants

Buttock augmentation using implants is another method of enhancing the size and shape of the buttocks. The implants themselves are typically silicone-filled medical devices that are surgically inserted deep within the tissues of the buttocks to add volume to the region while creating desirable gluteal contours. This procedure is ideal for women who desire a more dramatic result, or who have limited donor sites for fat harvesting and subsequent grafting.
