Liposuction

Liposuction is a versatile procedure designed to remove stubborn fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. It can target multiple areas, including the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, and neck, helping patients achieve a more sculpted and proportionate silhouette.

Dr. Lee uses modern liposuction techniques to optimize contouring while minimizing downtime. Each patient’s anatomy and fat distribution are carefully considered to create results that look natural and harmonious. Liposuction is not a weight-loss solution, but it can be ideal for those seeking to refine their body shape and enhance overall confidence. With meticulous attention to detail, Dr. Lee works to ensure smooth transitions and balanced proportions across the treated areas.

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, addresses excess skin and weakened abdominal muscles often caused by pregnancy, weight fluctuations, aging, or other factors. This procedure can dramatically improve the appearance of the midsection, creating a firmer, flatter, and more youthful contour.

Dr. Lee customizes the tummy tuck approach for each patient. In some cases, a full abdominoplasty is ideal to tighten both upper and lower abdominal skin and repair muscle separation. In others, a mini tummy tuck may be sufficient to target lower abdominal laxity. Both aesthetics and function are prioritized, and the abdomen will be carefully sculpted to achieve a flatter look. Many patients also notice an improvement in posture and core strength, enhancing both appearance and comfort.

Mommy Makeover

A mommy makeover is a customized combination of procedures that can help patients restore their pre-pregnancy bodies and renew their appearance after the physical challenges of motherhood have taken their toll. Pregnancy can affect the breasts, abdomen, and overall body contour, leaving changes that are difficult to address with diet or exercise alone. Dr. Lee tailors each mommy makeover to meet the unique goals of every patient, focusing on natural, balanced results.

Typical components of a mommy makeover may include:

Breast Surgery: Augmentation, lift, or a combination to restore volume and shape
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty): To remove excess skin and tighten abdominal muscles
Liposuction: For targeted fat removal in areas such as the flanks, hips, or thighs

By combining these procedures, many patients can achieve comprehensive rejuvenation following a single recovery period; however, staging a mommy makeover across a series of appointments may be recommended in some cases, depending on each patient’s needs.

Dr. Lee carefully plans each mommy makeover to:

Ensure harmonious proportions across the body
Minimize visible scarring where possible while optimizing contour
Address both aesthetic and functional concerns

Many patients find that a mommy makeover not only restores their physical appearance but also boosts confidence and comfort in daily life, allowing them to feel rejuvenated after the changes of pregnancy.

Circumferential Body Lift

A circumferential body lift, sometimes referred to as a belt lipectomy, is designed for patients who have experienced significant weight loss and have excess skin around the abdomen, flanks, and back. This procedure removes loose skin while tightening the underlying tissue to create a smoother, more contoured profile.

Dr. Lee approaches the circumferential body lift with precision and artistry, balancing safety, symmetry, and aesthetics. The result can be a more defined waistline, improved posture, and a rejuvenated body contour that complements the patient’s overall figure.

Arm Lift

An arm lift, or brachioplasty, addresses sagging or excess skin along the upper arms, often caused by aging or weight fluctuations. Dr. Lee carefully removes and repositions skin and tissue to create firmer, more toned arms. This procedure can improve both appearance and confidence, allowing patients to feel comfortable in sleeveless clothing.

Thigh Lift

A thigh lift targets excess skin and fat accumulation along the inner or outer thighs, which commonly follows weight loss. Each procedure is tailored to the patient’s anatomy and goals, removing excess tissue and tightening underlying structures for a smoother, more proportionate leg contour. The result can be improved shape, symmetry, and confidence in fit and comfort of clothing.

A Personalized Approach to Body Surgery

Dr. Lee believes that every patient deserves care that is as unique as their body and goals. From the initial consultation to the recovery process, she takes time to listen, educate, and guide patients through their surgical journey. The ultimate goal is to deliver results that enhance natural beauty, restore confidence, and provide lasting satisfaction.
