Abdominoplasty and Liposuction in Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Abdominoplasty in Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Abdominoplasty, performed at our Milwaukee, Wisconsin practice, removes excess unwanted skin and fat from the abdominal area, which for most is one of the most difficult areas to tone. The procedure is ideal for those who have tried diet and exercise but have failed to lose fat around the midsection. Abdominoplasty can essentially flatten the tummy, eliminate love handles or a pouch, and trim the waist, all in one simple procedure.
During abdominoplasty, frequently requested by our Milwaukee, Wisconsin clientele, Dr. Loewenstein makes a thin incision from one hipbone to the other, forming a flap. Next, he carefully trims away excess fat and skin and tightens the remaining tissue, as well as the abdominal muscles. When the procedure is complete, Dr. Loewenstein replaces the flap and sutures it closed. Abdominoplasty is performed under general anesthesia and takes two to five hours to complete, depending on the patients’ individual cases. Major side effects include bruising and swelling, but these usually fade within a few weeks’ time.

The Wisconsin Region’s Preference for Liposuction
Liposuction, performed in our Milwaukee office, is a safe, effective procedure designed to rid the body of fat that is resistant to a healthy diet and exercise. Liposuction is particularly in demand for those patients who are physically fit - meaning those patients who are active and who eat well - but who can’t seem to obtain the flat abdomen, sculpted arms or thighs, or svelte figure they desire.
Most of our patients in the Wisconsin area choose to have liposuction performed on the following common problem areas: the buttocks, hips, stomach, arms, chin, neck, saddlebags, and in some cases, the back (love handles area). Liposuction cannot, however, remove cellulite, but it can leave the body looking much more toned and sculpted.
During liposuction, Dr. Loewenstein, known through Milwaukee for his outstanding results, will make a small incision in the treatment area. Next, he will insert a narrow, hollow tube - called a cannula - into the incision and vacuum out excess fat cells. Liposuction is performed under anesthesia and typically lasts two to four hours. Side effects associated with liposuction include temporary bruising, swelling, numbness, soreness, burning, and general discomfort; typically, these subside within a few weeks’ time.
Dr. Loewenstein specializes in a number of liposuction techniques in his Milwaukee office, including traditional liposuction (as described above), tumescent liposuction (in which a fluid is injected into the treatment area to minimize bleeding and post-operative bruising), and ultrasound-assisted liposuction (in which a special cannula is inserted to liquify the fat for easy removal). To find out which liposuction option available in our Milwaukee office is right for you, please contact Dr. Loewenstein today.
Wisconsin’s Choice for Body Contouring
In Wisconsin, body contouring is offered as a solution to unwanted fat, loose skin, and other bodily imperfections. This body contouring relies on a combination of procedures - such as liposuction, arm lift, body lift, breast augmentation, and abdominoplasty - to sculpt the body, enhancing one’s natural curves and streamlining the figure. Body Contouring can produce amazing results with just a few small changes - you can have an entirely new look through our surgical procedures.
