This patient’s transformation showcases the power of combining procedures:
High-Definition Liposculpture + Renuvion® skin tightening with fat transfer to the chest.
HD Lipo goes beyond traditional liposuction to sculpt and define the underlying muscle anatomy, while Renuvion uses helium plasma energy to tighten the skin from the inside out. The fat transfer to the chest adds natural volume and projection for a truly athletic contour.
The work is done. The confidence is his. 💪

A journey that began with dedication, completed with precision. ✨
This patient worked tirelessly to lose weight, only to be left with the final hurdle: skin laxity that diet and exercise couldn`t touch. A circumferential lift was performed to remove the excess tissue "belt" around the entire midsection.
Today, at 12 months post-op, the transformation is complete. It’s not just about a flatter silhouette; it’s about a body that finally matches the strength and hard work they put in. The confidence? Unstoppable. 🏔️

6 months ago, we performed High-Definition Liposculpture on this patient’s back and flanks. Today, the results speak for themselves.
By strategically removing deep and superficial fat, we’ve highlighted the natural lateral spread of the lats and the definition of the lower back. This isn`t just about being "thinner"—it’s about creating an athletic architecture that diet and exercise alone often can`t reach in the "love handle" area.
Precision in every pass. 🖋️

Our Proven Process: From Consultation to Transformation
Your abdominoplasty journey is carefully structured from the first conversation to your final follow up visit. We believe preparation and recovery matter just as much as the surgery itself.
In Depth Consultation
Comprehensive evaluation with Dr. Grandhige to understand your goals and create a personalized plan. Contact us to schedule.
Preoperative Preparation
Structured guidance including nutrition protocols, compression planning, and recovery education.
Surgery Day
Procedure in Quad A accredited facility with dedicated surgical team and 24 hour nursing care.
Active Recovery
Hands on support with scheduled follow ups, lymphatic treatments, and milestone tracking.
Long Term Results
Full year of follow up care with ongoing support and continuity of relationship.
Real Results: Patient Success Stories
The best measure of a surgeon’s skill is outcomes. Formation patients consistently report not just improved appearance, but renewed confidence and quality of life.

Removal of Excess Skin

Flatter, Firmer Midsection

“Dr. Grandhige’s approach was completely different from other consultations I had. He was honest about what surgery could and could not do for me, and he never made me feel rushed. The results exceeded my expectations, and the recovery support was incredible.”

- You have lost significant weight and are left with excess tissue that affects your quality of life

- You have completed pregnancies and want to restore your pre baby body
- You have tried non surgical treatments such as injectables without satisfactory results
- You want a surgeon who specializes in male body contouring and athletic aesthetics
- You are looking for a practice that treats recovery as seriously as surgery

Frequently Asked Questions
A full abdominoplasty addresses excess skin and muscle separation in both the upper and lower abdomen. The incision runs from hip to hip below the bikini line, and the navel is typically repositioned. A mini tummy tuck uses a shorter incision and focuses only on the area below the belly button. Dr. Grandhige will recommend the best approach based on your anatomy and goals.
Most patients return to work within 10 to 14 days and resume exercise without restrictions at six weeks. Swelling continues to improve over three to six months, with final results visible around six to twelve months.
Abdominoplasty is a contouring procedure, not a weight loss solution. It removes excess skin and repairs muscle separation but is not designed to reduce overall body weight. Ideal candidates are at or near their goal weight before surgery.
Absolutely. Formation specializes in male body contouring, and many of our abdominoplasty patients are men. The surgical approach for men focuses on creating a flat, athletic midsection without feminizing curves.
Cost varies based on the type of procedure, whether liposuction is included, facility fees, and anesthesia. Formation provides a detailed cost estimate during your consultation. We also offer financing options.
