Dr. Alfonso specializes in body lift surgery, helping Grand Rapids, Birmingham, and Detroit area patients tighten body tissues and minimize excess sagging skin following medical or surgical weight loss. The upper arm, buttocks, inner or outer thighs, and hips are all common areas that may lose firmness and youthful curves with weight fluctuation, resulting in excess skin.
A procedure such as thigh lift, arm lift (brachioplasty), buttock lift, or other lower-body lift can specifically correct the excess sagging skin, fat, and loose tissue that contribute to an undefined shape.
During your consultation for a body lift Grand Rapids plastic surgeon, Dr. Alfonso will take the time to listen to your particular goals, evaluate your specific conditions, and devise an individualized plan to help you achieve very natural, attractive curves, getting you back to daily life feeling strong, fit, and confident.
