The procedures listed on this page are for the breast, torso and upper thighs.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation (breast implants) surgery is one of the most popular cosmetic surgical procedures. This procedure enhances the breast volume, creating a more aesthetically pleasing appearance, and enhancing the overall body contour.
Whether you opt for saline or silicone implants, Dr. Fantozzi will use only the highest quality materials to ensure that your procedure is a success. A variety of techniques can be used for breast augmentation; Dr. Fantozzi will discuss these in detail at your consultation and, using anthropometric techniques, determine which method will work best for you.
This procedure is performed under light anaesthesia, and takes about an hour.
Breast Reduction
Breast reduction surgery is a cosmetic procedure to treat women with large breasts. Patients with this condition can suffer from a variety of problems, including back and neck pain, breathing problems and skin irritation.
During the surgery, the doctor will remove excess skin, mammary tissue, and fat from the breasts, then reposition and reshape the nipples.
There have been many new techniques developed for breast reduction during the past few years that create less scarring and promote faster recovery. Dr. Fantozzi will work closely with you to determine which method will give you the best possible results.
This procedure involves light anaesthesia and takes about two hours.
Breast Lifting (Mastopexy)
Breast lifting is also known as mastopexy. The breast can droop or sag for a variety of reasons: the effects of gravity, age, pregnancy, and weight loss, all of which can make the breasts lose their elasticity. This condition can result in reduced aesthetic quality of the breasts and, consequently, of the body.
The breast lift procedure reverses these effects by lifting the breast and restoring it to its original position.
Dr. Fantozzi will use his experience and expertise in anthopometry to determine which procedure will work best for you.
The procedure involves light aneasthesia and takes about two hours.
Male breast reduction (Gynecomastia)
Gynecomastia is defined as the development of male breast tissue. It is a rarely discussed problem but is surprisingly common, affecting almost half of the male population. This condition can have a devastating impact on self-confidence and affect almost every aspect of a person’s life.
The surgery involves the removal of excess skin, fat and tissue from the breast. The doctor will make every effort to place the incision in an inconspicuous location, such as in the nipple area. The result is an enhanced body image and improved self-confidence.
This procedure involves light anaesthesia and takes about one hour.
Tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty)
A sagging, out of shape abdomen can make you self-conscious and uncomfortable, particularly when wearing certain styles of clothing. Some people have trouble affecting this area through diet and exercise. Thanks to abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), these individuals can achieve the tight, toned abdomen that they desire.
The goal of an abdominoplasty is to tighten abdominal muscles and remove excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdominal region. Stretch marks can also be removed during the procedure. Since the abdominal skin is literally being manipulated and adjusted, the belly button is also repositioned during the surgery.
The procedure involves general anaesthetic and takes about two hours.
Liposuction
People have been using liposuction for years as a way to sculpt and shape the body and to reduce stubborn fatty pockets that have been unresponsive to diet and exercise.
Modern liposuction techniques now result in short recovery times and high quality results.
Liposuction should not be considered a means to achieve weight loss. The best candidates for liposuction are individuals who are of roughly normal weight, but who are unhappy with stubborn pockets of fat.
The procedure involves light anaesthesia.
Body Lipo-Filling
The procedure involves transferring fat from one area of the body to another via injection. The advantage of this procedure is that, because the fat is from your own body, the risk of rejection, inflammation and allergic reaction is eliminated.
This treatment results in a more harmonious and aesthetically pleasing body contour. It redistributes the body's fat, removing it from where it is unwanted, and inserting it where it is needed.
This technique is often used to enhance the gluteus area.
The procedure involves light anaesthesia.
Gluteal Augmentation
People are constantly appraising your appearance, whether you’re coming or going. The shape and condition of the buttock area can have a significant impact on the appearance of your entire body. Using custom submuscular implants, Dr. Fantozzi is able to enhance your buttock area.
The implants are inserted directly into the buttock muscles. This surgical procedure can produce a fuller, more rounded buttock shape and significantly improve the overall body contour.
The surgery is performed under light anaesthesia and sedation and takes about an hour.
Brachial (Arm) Lifting
The arm is a particularly visible part of the body. Women often find that the upper arm becomes increasingly flabby and flaccid after 40 years.
Brachial lifting is a surgical procedure that removes loose skin and excess fat from the upper arm.
The procedure involves light anaesthesia and takes about an hour.
Inner Thigh (Crural) Lifting
The upper thigh area is often prone to flabbiness and flaccidity as we get older. Women often find excess fat and loose skin in this region as they get older.
Crural lifting involves the removal of excess fat and / or skin in the crural (inner thigh) area.
The procedure involves light anaesthesia and takes about an hour.
