Body Contouring

Body contouring addresses specific problem areas to improve shape and proportion. Dr. Kanuri recommends a thorough consultation to discuss realistic expectations.

Body contouring encompasses both liposuction and traditional skin-removing procedures. Both are frequently performed together for optimal results. The right approach depends on the areas of concern and your overall goals. Dr. Kanuri also specializes in facial rejuvenation and breast enhancement.

Dr. Kanuri will walk you through the risks, benefits, expected incision placement, and realistic outcomes during your consultation.

01

Liposuction & Lipo 360

Liposuction reshapes specific areas by removing excess fat deposits. Lipo 360 addresses the entire midsection for a comprehensive circumferential result.

  • Flanks, back, abdomen, thighs, and arms
  • Lipo 360 for full midsection contouring
  • Frequently combined with skin excision

Skin Excision

In areas where excess skin is present, skin excision obtains the best contour while balancing incision placement and minimizing visible scarring.

  • Incision placement to minimize visibility
  • Often combined with liposuction

Fat Grafting

Fat grafting uses your own harvested fat to enhance volume in areas such as the buttocks. Fat is removed via liposuction, purified, and transferred.

  • Buttock augmentation and contouring
  • Uses your own natural fat
  • Dual benefit from liposuction donor site

FAQ

Body Contouring Questions

Liposuction removes localized fat deposits, while a tummy tuck removes excess skin and tightens abdominal muscles. They are frequently combined for optimal results.

Lipo 360 is a circumferential liposuction technique that addresses the entire midsection, including the abdomen, flanks, and back. It creates a comprehensive, sculpted result rather than targeting a single area.

A Mommy Makeover typically combines a tummy tuck, breast augmentation or lift, and liposuction to address post-pregnancy body changes in a single operation with one recovery period.

Recovery varies by procedure. Liposuction patients typically return to work in 3 to 5 days, while tummy tuck recovery takes 2 to 3 weeks. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Kanuri to discuss your specific recovery timeline.

Ideal candidates are at or near their goal weight, in good overall health, and have realistic expectations. Body contouring works best for patients with localized fat deposits or excess skin that does not respond to diet and exercise.

Yes. Fat grafting for buttock enhancement (also called a Brazilian Butt Lift) uses your own fat, harvested via liposuction from another area, to add volume and improve the contour of the buttocks. It offers a dual benefit of contouring the donor site.
