Surgical Body Procedures in Metairie, LA

LIPOSUCTION

Dr. Stephen Eric Metzinger performs a range of liposuction techniques to remove excess fat using only small incisions into the treatment area. In addition to tumescent liposuction, Dr. Metzinger can use vibrations, air suction, ultrasound waves, or lasers to liquefy the fat for easier removal.

TUMMY TUCK

Sometimes, healthy nutrition and exercise aren’t enough to firm your abdomen if you have stretched skin or stubborn excess fat from dramatic weight loss or pregnancy. Dr. Metzinger can use abdominoplasty to tighten your underlying tissue and remove unwanted skin and fat from your midsection.

BODY LIFT PROCEDURES

Even if you have lost a substantial amount of weight, you might not feel like your appearance reflects your new healthier lifestyle. Dr. Metzinger offers comprehensive body lifts to help patients with excess skin and fat, and can lift and tighten the groin, thighs, abdomen, or buttocks.

ARM LIFT

Dr. Metzinger can perform brachioplasty, or arm lift, for patients with drooping skin or stubborn fat on their arms. This can result from weight changes, genetic conditions, or aging. He will make the incision on the underside of your arm to make your scar less noticeable.

BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT

Some patients struggle with flabby, flat, or disproportionate buttocks. To correct these conditions, Dr. Metzinger can perform both conventional and Brazilian butt lifts. A more lifted, perky bottom can complement your entire figure.

THIGH LIFT

If you struggle with excess skin or fat on your thighs, Dr. Metzinger can give your legs a more athletic, youthful appearance with a thigh lift. He will individually tailor your surgery, which can refine the inner region of the thigh, the front of your legs, or your upper thigh.

MOMMY MAKEOVER

Becoming a mommy means that your body will go through some inevitable changes. However, the effects of these changes can last far beyond pregnancy and the first few years of your child’s life. Many moms find that their body stubbornly refuses to return to the way that it once was, no matter how much they diet or exercise.

Mini Tummy Tuck

Dr. Stephen Eric Metzinger performs mini tummy tuck procedures with precision, focusing on the lower abdomen to remove sagging skin and stubborn fat. Using a shorter incision below the belly button, Dr. Stephen Eric Metzinger can tighten the underlying muscles if needed to enhance core strength and contour. This targeted procedure is ideal for patients with mild skin laxity or localized fat, offering a quicker recovery and a more subtle enhancement compared to a full tummy tuck.

Love Handles Liposuction

Using advanced liposuction techniques, Dr. Metzinger carefully contours the midsection to achieve a slimmer, more defined silhouette.

With minimal scarring and a relatively quick recovery, love handles liposuction provides long-lasting improvements in body shape and confidence.
