Sometimes, our bodies just do not respond to diet and exercise the way we want them to. Cosmetic plastic surgery procedures can reshape many areas by removing excess fat and skin and toning muscle. Below are some of the procedures we perform for body contouring. During your comprehensive consultation, Dr. Jeremy Waldman fellowship trained cosmetic surgeon, can answer any of your questions and help you decide if surgery will achieve your goals.
Liposuction
The most popular cosmetic surgery procedure in the U.S., liposuction sculpts the body by removing undesirable fat that has not responded to diet and exercise from areas such as the abdomen, waist, hips, buttocks, thighs, knees, chin, cheeks, neck and upper arms. Read more

Abdominoplasty
Abdominoplasty helps to flatten and shape the abdomen and waist by removing excess fat and skin and tightening muscles. Read more
Arm Lift
After substantial weight loss, weight gain or simply from the effects of aging, skin on the upper arms can become inelastic, loose and flabby. Arm lifts, also known as brachioplasty, remove that excess skin and fat. Patients who have significant amounts of fat may want to consider combining the procedure with liposuction. Read more
Breast Lift
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is performed to return youthful shape and lift to breasts that have sagged as a result of weight loss, pregnancy, loss of the skin’s natural elasticity or simply the effects of aging and gravity. Read more
Body Lift
Also called belt lipectomy, torsoplasty and panniculectomy, the circumferential body lift is performed to remove excess skin from the torso and upper legs. A body lift tightens and tones the abdomen, back, buttocks, hips and thighs. It offers an improvement in appearance for patients who suffer from loose (inelastic) skin on many or most areas of the body as a result of age, childbearing or significant weight loss. Read more
Thigh Lift
A thigh lift is performed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper legs. Candidates typically suffer from loose, inelastic skin after extreme weight loss. In a medial thigh lift (inner thigh lift), the surgical incision is made in the inner thigh along the line where the leg meets the groin. In a lateral thigh lift (outer thigh lift), the incision is made from the groin around the back of the body, so that the buttocks are lifted along with the thigh. Read more

Male Body Contouring
We offer body contouring for men as well as women. Dr. Waldman specializes in male body contouring procedures such as liposuction, abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and gynecomastia correction.
Gynecomastia
Enlarged male breasts (gynecomastia) affects nearly 40-60% of men, often with no known cause. This condition can be highly embarrassing as well as physically uncomfortable. Men who feel self-conscious about enlarged breasts may seek breast reduction surgery. The procedure removes fat and/or glandular tissue from the breasts and in some cases excess skin as well. The result is a flatter, firmer chest.
