jen — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 20:29:21 +0000

For many people, men and women alike, with trouble areas of their bodies which are resistant to diet and exercise, Liposuction can be a very valuable body contouring tool to make the improvements desired. Almost any area of the body can be treated with Liposuction from the abdomen, to the thighs, buttocks, arms and even the neck or face. Often Liposuction may be combined with other body contouring procedures such as a Tummy Tuck, Arm Lift or Thigh Lift to create the most optimal results.

It is important to understand that Liposuction is not a treatment for obesity or a weight loss solution. In fact, the best candidates are those who are living a healthy lifestyle with a healthy diet and exercise regime, but have isolated trouble areas with stubborn fatty deposits. Theses fat cells are often due to genetic pre-disposition. Dr. Contogiannis has helped countless men and women achieve the body contour they desire through Greensboro Liposuction.

If you are ready to discuss your options for achieving the body you desire through Liposuction, contact board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Contogianniss today to schedule your consultation.

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a procedure to improve the area around the eyes. With age, our skin loses it’s elasticity, or ability to stay tight, and thus the skin begins to sag. Blepharoplasty can include work done to both the upper and lower eyelids. In the procedure excess skin is removed and fat may be removed, or re-shaped to create a more youthful appearance. Having drooping eyelids due to sagging skin can make people feel like they look older and more tired than they are.

Blepharoplasty may also be done in conjunction with other facial rejuvenation procedures such as a brow lift, rhinoplasty, cheek or chin implants or neck lift.
