As you cozy up during winter season you can get distracted and soon find yourself skipping spring and at summers’ doorstep. When it’s time to don the bathing suits, shorts, and summer dresses, avoid the stress! Think and plan ahead to get your treatments done with plenty of time to recover so you can enjoy the season with the best of them.

Liposuction/liposculpture- What is it? Making small incisions (~1cm) in strategic places and using blunt cannulas to suction out unwanted fat that won’t go away with diet and exercise, and create a desired shape, curvy, flat, v-shape, etc. (depending on whether you’re female or male)
Why now? because wearing the compression garment for recovery is easier and more comfortable to wear in the colder weather.
Breast Augmentation- What is it? The most popular procedure in the U.S. in 2019! Using a small incision, a pocket is created , usually under each pectoralis muscle (your chest muscle) to place an implant. I recommend silicone gel, as it looks and feels more natural for all parties involved.
Why now? Because the area will be swollen and the implants can appear a bit high in the beginning but will settle over a few weeks, just in time to shine in those bathing suits!

Cellfina - What is it? The longest lasting (5+ years!) FDA approved cellulite reduction treatment. Minimally invasive in-office procedure to improve cellulite. Added bonus: it’s a single treatment!
Why now? It’s a great treatment to have and be ready to show up with smooth buttocks and thighs a few weeks later when It’s time for smaller/shorter clothing. It’s not just for thongs, think yoga pants and spandex!
Sciton Forever Bare- What is it? The fastest and most comfortable laser hair removal device.
Why now? Because hair removal involves a number of sessions spaced weeks apart for full removal (due to the cycles of hair growth), it’s best to plan ahead so you can have as many sessions as possible in order to achieve that smooth hairless skin before heading out for some fun in the sun!
There you have it! Some great treatment options to consider and plan ahead, in your pursuit of the bathing suit! Enjoy your Summer!
