Normal aging, weight loss, and weight gain all affect the attractiveness of the body. For patients who are dissatisfied with their body, both in or out of clothes, body cosmetic surgery may be an important step towards improving their body image. For most operations, there is a trade-off of scar for improved contour. While scars are permanent, they usually improve with time and hide well under clothes. Given the improvement that body contouring operations deliver, patients almost unanimously find their scars to be a minor issue. Dr. Wigod also performs liposuction to improve body contour on appropriate candidates.
