Body Surgery
Body procedures cover contouring after pregnancy, major weight change, GLP-1 assisted weight loss, and localized fullness. From tummy tuck and mommy makeover to liposuction and post-weight-loss contouring, each is planned around your anatomy, goals, and recovery.
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, removes excess abdominal skin and can tighten separated abdominal muscles when appropriate. In Cherry Creek, Dr. Barker plans tummy tuck surgery around skin laxity, abdominal wall support, incision placement, and whether liposuction or mommy makeover procedures should be combined.
A mommy makeover is a personalized combination of breast and body procedures that may include tummy tuck, breast lift, augmentation, reduction, and liposuction. At Peak Plastic Surgery Center, the plan is built around the patient's anatomy, family timing, recovery window, and priorities rather than a fixed package.
Liposuction reduces localized fat pockets to refine contour in areas such as the abdomen, waist, flanks, arms, thighs, or neck. Dr. Barker's Denver planning distinguishes fat reduction from skin tightening so patients understand when liposuction alone is appropriate and when a lift or tummy tuck may be better.
VASER liposuction is an ultrasound-assisted liposuction option used in selected body contouring plans. At Peak Plastic Surgery Center, it is presented as one possible tool, not a universal upgrade, and is chosen only when it fits the patient's anatomy, skin quality, and contour goals.
Body contouring is a broader planning category for patients who want to refine shape after pregnancy, weight change, GLP-1 assisted weight loss, or localized fat concerns. Dr. Barker evaluates skin, fat distribution, muscle support, scars, and recovery timing to recommend the right procedure sequence.
Body contouring after weight loss addresses loose skin and contour changes that may remain after major weight reduction. Dr. Barker's Denver planning focuses on stable weight, skin quality, procedure sequence, scars, recovery capacity, and whether tummy tuck, arm lift, thigh lift, or related procedures should be staged.
Post-GLP-1 body contouring helps patients evaluate loose skin, localized fat, and shape changes after medication-assisted weight loss. Because timing after medication-assisted weight loss is individual, recommendations are made only after a private consultation with Dr. Barker.
