Spring has sprung, and with summer right around the corner, it’s time to get your body ready for the beach! We work hard during the winter months so we can enjoy the Kelowna summers, and some of us exchange the beaches in the Okanagan for white sand abroad. Regardless of where your summer travels take you, Dr. Brian Peterson wants you to be ready for the beach! The team at Peterson MD can make your dream body a reality with cosmetic procedures like the tummy tuck, and breast and arm lifts.
The tummy tuck, clinically known as the abdominoplasty, is a plastic surgical procedure that enhances the centerpiece of your body: the stomach. A flatter and smoother stomach is something both men and women strive for. With thousands of people changing from a sedentary lifestyle to an active one, all the hard work in the gym can be frustrating when you’re left with loose skin hanging over the abdomen. On one hand you’ve lost weight, which is great, but on the other hand, you still want to avoid the beach because you’re insecure about the excess skin. For some people, Dr. Peterson may also suggest liposuction combined with abdominoplasty as a solution to take your goals to the finish line. Your flatter, smoother and contoured stomach will be a prized feature that you should and can enjoy on the beach!
The beach is synonymous with bikinis and the breast lift will give you that killer bikini look. The breast lift will not only restore your breasts to their youthful position, but they will also increase your confidence as you hit the water. The mastopexy (breast lift) is a cosmetic plastic surgery that elevates the position of the nipple areolar complex to a more desirable position. This procedure often results in smaller breasts; however an implant can be added to add volume and size to the newly positioned breasts. That surgery is known as augmentation mastopexy.
When it comes to your body, the sum of the parts is greater than the whole! The positive vibes and increased self-image that result from procedures like abdominoplasty and breast lifts can make 2015 your best summer ever!
