Rely on Our Expertise
Formation was brought to life by our founder, Dr. Gopal Grandhige, as a sanctuary where his dedication to both outward and inward health and beauty could flourish. His philosophy embraces the idea that enhancing appearance, improving well-being, prolonging life, and embracing oneโs true self are all interconnected. These goals are not opposing forces; rather, they are facets of a unified journey toward fulfillment โ fulfillment in having, doing, and becoming.
Dr. Grandhigeโs mission is to deliver a transformative, lifelong experience to every patient. To achieve this, he has merged his expertise as a board-certified surgeon with a skilled team of professionals, including coaches, nutritionists, fitness experts, medical staff, and his trusted colleague, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ahmad Saadย to provide innovative and all-encompassing results.
High Definition Liposculpture
High-definition liposuction represents the pinnacle of expertise at Formation. By meticulously removing concentrated fat deposits from specific areas using a precise and strategic approach, Dr. Grandhige unveils the natural contours of our patientsโ bodies. This advanced technique highlights the bodyโs inherent musculature, helping individuals achieve the sculpted appearance theyโve always envisioned.
Through high-definition liposuction, we enhance each individual’s unique beauty and anatomy, unveiling their true form for themโand othersโto appreciate.
Tampaโs Premier Aesthetic Surgery Center
Nestled in the iconic yellow brick building located across from Fresh Kitchen on South Howard Avenue, right in the heart of South Tampa, Formation stands as the cityโs first and only clinic to offer the complete range of FDA-approved endoscopic (incision-free) weight loss surgeries. Weโve also mastered the art of high-definition liposuction, setting a new standard in aesthetic surgery. Based in Tampa, our clinic proudly caters to clients from all around the city, including those seeking an experienced and trusted plastic surgeon in Davis Islands and nearby neighborhoods.
Crafted by Tampaโs own artisans to evoke the warmth and comfort of your dream living room, our office invites you to sit back, relax, and enjoy a welcoming atmosphere. Our friendly staff is here to connect with you, listen to your story, and understand where you are today while helping you envision the path to where you want to be.
Incision-Free Weight
Loss Solutions
Embarking on a journey toward improved health, beauty, and wellness can be life-changing, and endoscopic, non-surgical weight loss procedures offer an excellent way to kickstart that transformation. At Formation, we provide a variety of surgical and non-surgical weight loss options, helping you identify the solution that best suits your individual needs. For those seeking remarkable results under the care of a skilled plastic surgeon in Davis Islands, our team delivers exceptional treatment and personalized support every step of the way.
We are proud to be the sole facility in the Tampa Bay area offering three groundbreaking, FDA-approved endoscopic bariatric procedures for effective weight loss: endoplastic sleeve gastroplasty, Orbera, and the Spatz3 intragastric balloon. Dr. Grandhige is the only physician in Tampa who performs the Spatz3 balloon procedure. This innovative gastric balloon is the first and only adjustable option in the world, designed to stay in place for up to 8 months and adapt in size to meet patient needs.
These cutting-edge procedures are minimally invasive, completely incision-free, and performed in an outpatient setting, providing patients with a safe and effective alternative to more invasive weight loss surgeries.
Take The Next Step
A PDO thread lift is a good answer for the right jawline and neck, and the wrong one for a face that needs more. The way to know which you are is a straight assessment from a surgeon who’ll tell you either way. If you’re in Harvey Heights or anywhere in north Tampa and want a clear read on your candidacy, book a consultation with Gopal Grandhige, MD at Formation. You’ll leave knowing exactly where you stand, whether that means scheduling a treatment or holding off for now.
Month Post-Op Transformation! ๐ฅ
Fixing previous surgical outcomes requires precision, expertise, and a tailored approach.
Hereโs how Dr. Grandhige transformed this patientโs core and chest:
The Challenge:
Previous tummy tuck left uneven abdominal fat distribution
High scar placement creating a visible โshelfโ effect
The Solution:
HD Liposculpture to refine and sculpt a athletic, masculine core and chest
Scar Revision to eliminate the shelf-like appearance and create a smoother profile
Keep in mind, at just 1 month post-op, swelling is still settling and we are nowhere near final results! Canโt wait to see this shape mature over the next few months. ๐ฅ

This beautiful tummy tuck transformation is only 1 month post-op!
What makes this journey even more special is where it began. Two years ago, this patient came to us wanting change but wasnโt quite ready for the operating table. Instead of rushing, we partnered with her for the long haul. Through the strategic use of GLP-1 therapy, dedicated nutrition guidance, and mindset coaching, she completely transformed her health to get to where she is today.
While she is already looking incredible, itโs important to remember that residual swelling and inflammation are completely normal at this stage. Healing takes time, but the foundation for an amazing result is officially set!
We are so incredibly honored to be a part of every patient`s unique journey, and we are committed to being with you every single step of the way.
Drop a โค๏ธ to wish her a continued smooth recovery!
