Comprehensive Body Contouring Services in Munster and Valparaiso, Indiana

During your consultation, Dr. Robinson will explain what services are a good match for your lifestyle, goals, and physical characteristics. We provide many effective body contouring services, including:

Liposuction: Liposuction (or “lipo”) is an excellent choice if you are bothered by stubborn pockets of fat. The procedure involves permanently removing unwanted fat cells to slim and reshape your figure.
Tummy Tuck: Abdominoplasty (or “tummy tuck”) removes excess fat and skin to correct a loose or sagging abdomen while also restoring weakened abdominal muscles. The result is often a flatter, smoother, and firmer abdominal profile.
Mommy Makeover: If you are dealing with unwanted aesthetic changes caused by pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, a mommy makeover may be the ideal solution. This customized combination of procedures typically includes body and breast surgeries.
Upper Arm Lift: Brachioplasty (or arm lift) may be right for you if you want to correct sagging, loose skin or excess fat on your upper arms. An upper arm lift can reduce excess skin, tighten the tissue, and eliminate localized pockets of fat.
CoolSculpting®: If you are looking for a non-surgical and non-invasive way to eliminate unwanted fat cells, CoolSculpting is the answer. This treatment uses controlled cooling energy to freeze away fat. Best of all, it doesn’t involve downtime, anesthesia, or scarring.

In addition to body contouring services, Dr. Robinson offers scar revision to help you look and feel your best. If you have an unsightly scar from a past injury or surgery, scar revision can improve the appearance of your skin.

Why It Can Be Hard to Reach Your Aesthetic Goals

Achieving a slim, defined figure can be hard. Even if you eat well and exercise regularly, it may not be enough. Factors beyond your control, such as your age and genetics, could be working against you. This can be discouraging, but it doesn’t mean that you can’t achieve your aesthetic goals. Surgical and non-surgical body contouring services may be the ideal solution. Keep in mind that these services are not a substitute for weight loss or a healthy lifestyle.
