Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
Tummy tuck surgery—medically known as abdominoplasty—is designed to remove loose, hanging skin and repair stretched and/or torn musculature throughout the abdominal region. If needed or desired, liposuction can also typically be performed to remove any localized pockets of fat in the region for a slimmer midsection and improved overall outcome.
Mini Tummy Tuck (Mini Abdominoplasty)
As its name suggests, a mini tummy tuck (or mini abdominoplasty) is a less extensive version of the traditional full tummy tuck procedure. This technique involves a shorter incision and is generally best suited for individuals who have poor muscle tone and minimal excess skin that is limited to the area below the belly button.

Liposuction
Liposuction can be a great option for men and women who are troubled by fat accumulations that remain resistant to dedicated efforts of diet and exercise. Dr. Kurkjian offers three different liposuction methods at our practice, enabling him to remove localized fatty tissue from virtually anywhere on the body with optimal safety and efficacy.
Mommy Makeover
The term “mommy makeover” refers to a custom combination of procedures intended to restore a woman’s pre-pregnancy physique. While the exact treatments vary from patient to patient, many mothers choose to pair tummy tuck and liposuction with breast enhancement surgery to simultaneously address the most common areas affected by pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
Sometimes referred to as brachioplasty, arm lift surgery is designed to remove loose, hanging skin from the upper arms for a firmer, more toned appearance. This treatment can be particularly beneficial for individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight but are troubled by the excess skin that often remains.
