About Body Contouring
Aging, pregnancy, and lifestyle changes can lead to weight gain and excess fat. When your body contour changes, it can affect your self-esteem and confidence. Drooping skin and excess fat can change the way your clothes fit, cause chafing, and make exercising uncomfortable. Body contouring is the safest and most effective solution for helping you meet your body goals. These customizable surgeries can be tailored to your unique needs to help you achieve your desired look.
Body Contouring Procedures
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a procedure that eliminates excess fat and skin from the abdomen. During the procedure, Dr. Ahmed will make a discrete incision along the underwear line to reposition your skin and remove excess fat. It can also repair separated abdominal muscles and restore core strength. After the procedure, you will have a smooth, contoured abdomen with a hip-to-hip scar that is easily concealed by underwear or a bikini.
Tummy tucks are not only for women. Dr. Ahmed performs this procedure on male and female patients who have experienced massive weight loss from diet and exercise, or who are experiencing the skin-sagging effects of “Ozempic body.” These patients would benefit most from an Extended Tummy Tuck.
Buttock Augmentation
A Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is a procedure that contours the buttocks using a patient’s own harvested fat for a rounder, smoother behind. If you have lost volume in the buttocks due to weight loss through diet and exercise, or are suffering from “Ozempic butt”, we can restore your figure with this procedure for a smoother look. For patients on the petite side, we can help you achieve a rounder, more voluptuous figure with a skinny BBL. A skinny BBL is a procedure for petite patients that adds volume to the buttocks and contours the area for your desired look. Buttock implants are also an option to add volume for a smoother, curvier figure.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a procedure that permanently removes excess fat cells from the body for a toned, athletic physique. If you have stubborn pockets of excess fat from lifestyle changes or pregnancy, liposuction is an effective solution. During the procedure, we will make a discrete mole-sized incision in the area you would like to contour and use suction to remove the excess fat from your body. If you would like to use the fat for fat transfer (e.g. a BBL), we will use a centrifuge to purify the fat and inject it to help you achieve a curvier figure. If you are looking to achieve a more athletic figure, we can melt excess fat with VASER ultrasonic technology and remove it with liposuction. The procedure will enhance your natural muscle definition, and we can perform 360-degree liposuction for a full body treatment if you would like to contour the entire body for a more comprehensive treatment. The cost of your liposuction procedure will depend on the size and location of the treatment area.
Mommy Makeover
A mommy makeover is a procedure that restores your body after pregnancy by removing excess fat and skin for a smoother, curvier contour. During the procedure, we can completely makeover the body by lifting and augmenting the breasts, sculpting the abdomen, and using your own fat to enhance volume for your desired look. We can help you get your old body back so you don’t have to live with the long-term effects of pregnancy on your body.
Labiaplasty and Vaginal Rejuvenation
Labiaplasty is a popular procedure that restores the appearance of the vulva by removing excess skin from the labia minora. Cosmetic specialists performed more than 18,000 labiaplasties in 2021. (2) Sagging skin can make exercise and intimacy difficult, especially if you feel self conscious about your body. Some patients also have trouble wearing tight-fitting clothing because drooping skin can be uncomfortable. If you have excess labial skin, you are not alone. This is common in patients who are aging or have experienced pregnancy. A labiaplasty can restore intimate areas for a more youthful look while maintaining a natural appearance so you can enjoy your body and intimate relationships more.
Arm Lift
An arm lift is a procedure that enhances the contour of your upper arms by removing excess skin and fat. As you age, you might have noticed skin drooping that does not resolve with diet or exercise, known colloquially as “bat wings.” An arm lift can reverse the effects of aging on this area for beautiful, contoured arms. Dr. Ahmed will make discrete incisions to reposition the skin on your arm and may remove excess fat with liposuction. If you feel uncomfortable in your clothing or in public because you have drooping skin, we can remove it in just one appointment. If you have corresponding procedures to help you achieve your desired figure, we will provide an all-inclusive quote after your consultation. To learn more about our procedures, see the blog.
Cost of Body Contouring in Las Vegas
The cost of your body contouring procedure will depend on your unique body goals and Dr. Ahmed’s treatment plan for your unique needs. Our goal is to help you feel amazing in your skin, and we will prioritize your personal goals with customizable procedures so you can achieve the beautiful voluptuous figure you have always desired.

FAQ
Will I have scarring after a body contouring procedure?
After a body contouring procedure, you will have delicate scars from the incisions that you can easily hide with clothing. The amount of scarring will vary depending on the procedure you have. We take care to make incisions in discrete areas that can be easily covered, and over time the scars will gradually fade.
Is there an age limit for body contouring procedures?
No, there is not an age limit for a body contouring procedure provided you are healthy enough for surgery. During your consultation, we will discuss your medical history to determine whether or not you are a good candidate for your chosen body contouring procedure. If you are not a candidate, there may be nonsurgical alternatives that we can discuss.
How long do the results of body contouring surgery last?
Although surgical procedures are long-lasting, lifestyle changes, weight gain, pregnancy, and age can cause excess skin or fat to accumulate. If you experience changes to your body that affect the results of your procedure, our team is always available to work with you and help you restore your figure..
What is recovery like after a body contouring procedure?
After a body contouring procedure, you will experience discomfort near the incision sites while you are healing. You may also have limited mobility, and will be restricted from certain exercises and activities while you heal.
Can you perform more than one body contouring procedure during one appointment?
Yes, combination procedures such as the mommy makeover are very common choices to help patients reach their body goals in one surgery. We can discuss your desired combination procedure during your consultation to outline a surgical plan.
How long will I need to wait after pregnancy until I can undergo a mommy makeover?
Patients should wait at least six months after pregnancy before planning to undergo a mommy makeover.
Can a mommy makeover include a tummy tuck?
The tummy tuck is an integral part of a mommy makeover. Additional procedures also frequently include a breast lift or breast augmentation and liposuction.
