THE IDEAL MALE BODYMen generally have less body fat than women, and yet also require a higher daily caloric intake. However, they are not excluded from the impact of aging. Despite paying close attention to personal diet and exercise plans, many men are unable to ward off the toll that advancing age takes on their bodies.

As with any type of surgery, back liposuction can lead to complications that patients should be aware of before planning to move forward with the treatment. The sensitivity of the back’s skin and the manner in which fat collects in problem areas can make the area particularly difficult to treat. Even though the liposuction procedure is routine and can be safely performed, our Plastic Surgeons always exercise the utmost level of caution.
Some of the most common back liposuction complications include the following:HYPERPIGMENTATIONPerforming liposuction on the back carries a higher risk of hyperpigmented scarring (uneven or blotchy skin discolouration) than other […]

FACE AND NECK
Localized fat that affects the face and/or neck can be especially frustrating as it is almost impossible to treat through exercise and diet alone (most exercises designed to help are ineffective and can even lead to wrinkle formation over time).

As more and more people experience massive weight loss (MWL) due to procedures like bariatric surgery (for example, the lap-band or gastric bypass), plastic surgeons have had to refine the techniques they use to treat the side effects of this process.Bariatric surgery, while successful in treating obesity, takes a large toll on a patient’s body. To compensate for this, it’s essential to prepare the patient for the procedure by ensuring optimal health prior to any body contouring surgery, such as Circumferential Body Lift. This ties into the pre-operative evaluation, a crucial step toward ensuring a safe and efficacious treatment.

Stubborn double chin fat, also known as submental fullness. Is a common problem and tricky to get rid of. Some people, whether due to genetics or weight gain, cannot lose fat in this area no matter how generally fit they are. For men who wear a shirt and tie every day, it can be particularly frustrating as certain collars accentuate the double chin. When Toronto patients decide to pursue a cosmetic procedure for reduction of the fat under their chin, they will generally have two, effective options from which to choose: liposuction or Belkyra injections.
The two procedures differ in a […]
The majority of people are good candidates for liposuction, a type of fat removal surgery, but certain factors may make a potential patient ineligible.IDEAL CANDIDATESIdeal liposuction candidates are in good health with a normal BMI. The procedure isn’t meant as a weight loss technique, but is intended to remove localized, disproportionate fat deposits from the body. These deposits don’t respond to healthy eating or regular exercise.
One of the best ways to determine if the fatty areas you wish to eliminate should be treated through liposuction or with exercise/diet is the “pinch test.” The pinch test involves grabbing a hold of […]
We all desire to have a beautiful, stunning body that others talk about or desire to see, but what happens when your body has some flaws or imperfections? Do you accept them and move on or do you search for a solution to the problem?
