Body contouring procedures address stubborn fat deposits, loose skin, and changes in body shape that persist despite healthy habits. These operations are not weight-loss substitutes; they refine contour once weight is relatively stable. Dr. George Brennan offers liposuction, tummy tuck, and lifting procedures with an emphasis on smooth, natural-looking results.

Many patients benefit from combining procedures (for example, tummy tuck with liposuction, or breast and body surgery together). In other cases, staging surgeries over time is safer.
During consultation, Dr. Brennan reviews your medical history, goals, and operative time considerations to determine which procedures can be safely combined.

Liposuction removes localized fat to improve contour in areas such as:
Abdomen and flanks
Hips and thighs
Upper arms
Neck and under-chin (often considered with facial contouring)
It is best suited for patients with good skin quality and localized fat that does not respond to diet and exercise.
A tummy tuck is designed to:
Remove excess abdominal skin and some fat
Tighten separated or weakened abdominal muscles
Improve abdominal contour after pregnancy, weight change, or aging
It can be combined with liposuction for more comprehensive shaping when appropriate.
Lifting procedures are used when skin laxity is the primary issue:
Lifting procedures are used when skin laxity is the primary issue:
Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) – Reduces excess skin and fat along the upper arms.
Thigh Lift – Addresses loose skin and tissue on the inner or outer thighs.
Lower Body Lift – Treats circumferential laxity around the abdomen, flanks, and buttocks, often after major weight loss.
These procedures trade longer incisions and scars for improved contour and reduced skin excess.

You receive detailed written instructions and follow-up visits to track progress.
Body contouring is rarely about a single area in isolation. Changes in one region of the body can affect how surrounding areas look and feel, which is why planning is an important part of the process.
During consultation, discussion focuses on priorities, timing, and how different procedures may complement one another—or whether they are better addressed separately. In some cases, addressing one concern first allows for more predictable results later. In others, combining procedures can reduce total recovery time while still maintaining safety.
Factors such as skin quality, overall health, previous surgeries, and lifestyle all influence how a plan is structured. Weight stability is especially important, as significant changes after surgery can affect contour and long-term results.
Patients are encouraged to think of body contouring as a staged process rather than a single event. This approach allows goals to be refined, recovery to be managed thoughtfully, and outcomes to remain balanced rather than overcorrected.
The emphasis is always on proportion, safety, and durability of results—not speed or volume of procedures.
If you are considering body contouring or “aging body” procedures, schedule a consultation to review your options and timing.
