In our continuing series highlighting plastic surgery procedures in Singapore, Expat Choice caught up with internationally acclaimed Plastic Surgeon Dr Marco Faria Correa to discuss Extreme Plastic Surgery Makeovers for a patients Face and Body.
According to Dr Marco, Extreme Makeover is a series of surgical techniques or surgical treatment, or a sequence of cosmetic and medical treatments, performed to remove the excess fat, excess skin, tightening and improving the body contour, which aims to restore a youthful appearance to the body.
Extreme Makeover is one of today’s most popular combinations of Plastic Surgery techniques, designed specifically to address common issues faced by women who have experienced pregnancy, or been through a very significant, or massive weight loss.
“Pregnancy changes many things in a woman’s life: the family size, the sleeping habits and mainly the woman’s body shape. And as important as a mother is, a woman may not be feeling completely comfortable and confident in her post pregnancy body. Favourably, there are some plastic surgery procedures to gracefully reshape the woman’s silhouette.”
After a significant or massive weight loss, a woman may be left with excess skin and fat, and loss of skin elasticity, resulting in stretch marks or striae. This can result in lots of redundant skin and flabbiness, causing folds of skin that can make it harder to dress comfortably, or to fit into clothes often resulting in mobility problems and in some cases - skin infection may occur in the skin folds.
Plastic Surgery can play a vital role in the lives of these women, through positive aesthetic and cosmetic results.
When a woman feels she would prefer a contoured silhouette, she can consider a consultation with a plastic surgeon to know more about the Extreme Makeover.
According to Dr Marco, Extreme Makeover is a reshaping surgery that may significantly improve his patient´s comfort and quality of life.
The sequence of procedures, performed together, or step by step, include:
- face lift
- breast lift
- breast implant
- arm lift
- tummy tuck
- thigh lift
- butt lift
- liposuction / liposculpture
- fat grafting
Dr Marco explains that these patients can be successfully treated by Plastic Surgeons adept in their care who customize staging of the procedures as needed to yield a faster recovery, better results, and lower complications.
According to Dr Marco the result of Extreme Makeover brings to the patient a new body silhouette, improving self-body image, self-esteem, and self-confidence.
Dr Marco is a pragmatic surgeon who has mastered the traditional open methods by applying the latest techniques for properly hiding the scars in the anatomical folds and crease, leaving inconspicuous scars.
