Body Lifting in Charlotte, NC

Body lifting, sometimes referred to as a circumferential abdominoplasty, is a dramatic surgical procedure that eliminates flaccidity, drooping, and sagging of the trunk and upper legs associated with aging, post pregnancy changes, or significant weight loss. This procedure is being commonly used to treat the skin laxity that remains following massive weight loss and bariatric procedures. Many times, it is accompanied by thigh, breast or arm lifting to give a more dramatic result. A complete body lift is the incorporation of a circumferential abdominoplasty with the thigh lift. It lifts the buttocks, tightens the outer and front of the thighs, and achieves a flat, tight and contoured abdomen.

The Cool Way to Reduce Fat™

The Hunstad Center is proud to offer CoolSculpting™ by ZELTIQ™,  a new, non-invasive way to gently and effectively reduce fat in targeted areas of the body that results in a noticeable, natural-looking fat reduction in the treated areas. What makes the CoolSculpting procedure different is that it uses advanced cooling technology to selectively target fat bulges and eliminate fat cells through a gradual process that does not harm the surrounding tissues. This procedure can reduce unwanted abdominal fat, love handles (flanks), and back fat.

What Is It?
Unlike traditional invasive surgical procedures, the CoolSculpting procedure is non-invasive with no needles and no need for surgical incisions. During the procedure, a non-invasive applicator is applied to the skin surface to deliver precisely controlled cooling to target and eliminate fat cells in specific areas of the body. As they are exposed to cooling, the fat cells begin a process of natural cell removal. The fat cells in the treated area are gradually eliminated through the body’s normal metabolic processes, similar to how fat from food is eliminated. The result is a reduction in fat bulges that is visible in most patients in about two to four months.
