Body Plastic Surgery Conveniently located to serve Pittsburgh and Pennsylvania

Body sculpting encompasses several different body contouring techniques that Dr. Cherup uses to reshape almost any area of your body. Through body sculpting surgery, you can effectively eliminate excess fat and skin unresponsive to diet and exercise.

  • After Weight Loss Surgery – Excess skin and localized pockets of persistent fat can stand in the way of making your dream physique a reality after significant weight loss. Fortunately, Dr. Cherup offers post-weight loss plastic surgery in Pittsburgh to remove loose, hanging skin and stubborn fat, so you can finally embody the shapely body contours you’ve worked so hard for.
  • CoolSculpting – For patients looking for an alternative to body plastic surgery, Dr. Cherup may recommend CoolSculpting. CoolSculpting is a non-invasive fat removal treatment that can help you achieve a slimmer, more toned physique without surgery. This innovative treatment uses controlled cooling to freeze unwanted fat cells so they can be naturally and permanently eliminated from the body.
  • Labiaplasty – Labiaplasty procedures are performed to provide cosmetic and functional improvements by surgically altering the labia. This procedure can reduce the size of the labia minora, improve symmetry, and alleviate discomfort.
  • Liposuction – At Dr. Cherup’s medical practice in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, liposuction is a popular body plastic surgery procedure for patients who want to eliminate stubborn fat deposits from specific areas of the body. Dr. Cherup uses advanced liposuction techniques to permanently remove excess fat from problem areas like the abdomen, back, chest, upper arms, buttocks, and thighs.
  • Mommy Makeover – A mommy makeover is a customized combination of body plastic surgery procedures designed to help women reclaim their pre-pregnancy physique. This procedure can include a tummy tuck, liposuction, breast augmentation, mastopexy, breast lift surgery, and/or a lower body lift, depending on the patient’s needs and cosmetic goals.
  • Tummy Tuck – A tummy tuck is a body plastic surgery procedure that can remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen and repair weakened or separated muscles so you can enjoy a flatter, firmer midsection. This procedure is often ideal for individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight and/or women who have excess abdominal skin due to pregnancy.
  • Mini Tummy Tuck – A mini tummy tuck is a surgical cosmetic procedure that targets the lower abdomen, specifically the area below the belly button. It is designed to remove excess skin and fat to flatten and tighten the lower abdomen.

FAQ

  • How do I choose the right procedure(s) for my body goals?

    Choosing the right body plastic surgery procedure begins with a personalized consultation. Dr. Cherup will discuss your aesthetic goals, evaluate your physical condition, and recommend the best options, whether it’s a tummy tuck for a firmer abdomen, labiaplasty for comfort, or other body contouring techniques to sculpt your ideal shape.

  • How long is the recovery process for major body contouring surgeries?

    Recovery times can vary based on the specific procedure and individual factors. Generally, major body contouring surgeries require several weeks for initial recovery, with full benefits realized within a few months. We provide comprehensive aftercare instructions and support to ensure your recovery is as smooth and efficient as possible.

  • Can multiple body plastic surgery procedures be performed simultaneously?

    Yes, combining procedures, such as a tummy tuck, with other body contouring surgeries can be advantageous for suitable candidates. This approach not only harmonizes results but may also reduce overall recovery time and expense. Dr. Cherup will assess your goals and health to determine the best strategy for you.

  • What kind of anesthesia is used during body plastic surgery?

    The type of anesthesia used during body plastic surgery depends on the procedure’s complexity and duration. We prioritize patient safety and comfort, utilizing local, regional, or general anesthesia as appropriate.

  • What should I expect in terms of scarring after surgery?

    While all surgeries result in some degree of scarring, Dr. Cherup employs advanced techniques to minimize and conceal scars effectively. The location and extent of scarring depend on the specific procedure, but we are committed to achieving the most aesthetically pleasing results possible.

  • How long do the results of body plastic surgery last?

    The longevity of body plastic surgery results varies by procedure and individual lifestyle factors. Procedures like tummy tucks offer long-lasting outcomes, especially when accompanied by a healthy lifestyle. Dr. Cherup guides you in maintaining your results for as long as possible.

  • Does insurance cover body plastic surgery procedures?

    Most cosmetic body plastic surgery procedures, such as labiaplasty and body contouring, are not covered by insurance as they are considered elective. However, specific procedures with medical justification may be partially or fully covered. We recommend consulting with your insurance provider for specific coverage details.
