Traverse City, Michigan plastic surgeon Dr. F. Matthew Smith is experienced in many body procedures that will bring back the self-confidence and lost silhouette of almost anyone!

Abdominoplasty/Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck, also called an abdominoplasty, is just the solution for the post-baby body blues, for individuals who have lost a great deal of weight or for those who, through the normal aging process, find that their tummies are sagging. Through judicious body sculpting methods, Dr. Smith will resculpt your torso to a more pleasing and defined shape.

Body Lift
A body lift is a cosmetic procedure specifically for high weight-loss individuals. By eliminating excess hanging skin that’s a remnant of weight  loss, your body will regain its pre-weight-gain shape, making it easy to enjoy those smaller-size clothes that you worked so hard to fit into! Ban the droops and read all about Dr. Smith’s body lift procedure.

Brachioplasty (arm)
An arm lift is a procedure performed to eliminate the “waving motion” that we develop under the upper arm area as a normal result of aging or due to weight loss. Through fine suturing and expert reshaping, Dr. Smith can create a firmer upper arm that will look young and firm in sleeveless shirts and tops.

Liposuction
First created in 1984 in Italy, reshaping our bodies has come a long way thanks to liposuction. Traverse City plastic surgeon Dr. Smith focuses on the highly efficient and safe tumescent liposuction method that uses saline plus liquid anesthetic to extract fat from around the bra, the love handles, the flanks, thighs, knees and even around the jawline and cheek area. Don’t skip the gym, but if working out doesn’t eliminate those pockets of stubborn fat, talk to us about a little judicious lipo!

Thigh Lift
The inner thighs become saggy and loose as a result of normal aging as well as weight gain and loss. If you’ve got the jiggles, we’ve got the solution! A thigh lift tightens the tissues from the knee to the inner thigh to recreate a slimmer and tighter upper thigh area.

Mommy Makeover
Whether your “baby” is 3 or 33, if your post-baby body has left you feeling old and flabby, talk to Dr. Matthew Smith about a Mommy Makeover, which combines breast rejuvenation with a tummy tuck to reshape your body as close as possible to your original pre-baby shape. It’s a real boost to your self-confidence!
