Formation offers advanced body sculpting procedures tailored to your unique anatomy and goals. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, liposuction remains one of the most popular cosmetic procedures performed today.
Selective fat removal and contour refinement to enhance underlying muscle definition. Ideal for patients near their goal weight seeking athletic, natural looking results. Research published in PubMed confirms high patient satisfaction rates with HD lipo techniques.
Circumferential torso contouring that addresses the abdomen, flanks, and back in one comprehensive procedure. Creates balanced, proportional results from every angle.
Targeted fat removal combined with Renuvion or FaceTite skin tightening for a sharper, more defined jawline and youthful neck profile. Often paired with PDO thread lifts for men for enhanced results.
Male chest contouring to create a flat, masculine chest without saucer deformities or over resection. Often combined with strategic torso sculpting.
Advanced technique to reveal the athletic structure already present. Focus on preserving natural transitions and avoiding artificial, over etched appearances.

Facial Harmonization Step 2
It takes more than one treatment and often more than one treatment session to accomplish facial harmony and balance.
Here’s a look at step 2 in the journey for our surgical coordinator Hanna.
She wanted to address asymmetry and fullness in the lower face. To accomplish this we’ve started with Botox in the masseter to slim the jaw, and create a more feminine, heart shaped face. Now for step 2 we’re placing PDO lifting threads to enhance definition around the jawline without adding volume.

The power of a profile transformation. 🔥
For this patient, we combined PDO Lifting Threads and advanced chin/jawline filler to completely redefine his lower face. By strategically lifting the mid-to-lower face and sculpting the jaw, we didn’t just enhance one feature—we elevated his entire facial appearance.
An incredible, natural-looking result that brings balance and confidence from every angle.
Note: Minor bunching or puckering is completely normal immediately following a PDO thread lift. The slight bunching visible in the after photo will fully subside on its own over the next 2-4 weeks as the threads settle.

The fat cells removed during liposuction are permanently gone. Results are considered long lasting provided you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. While remaining fat cells can expand with significant weight gain, treated areas will not accumulate fat the way they did before surgery.
Most patients return to light activities within one to two weeks and resume gym workouts within two to four weeks while wearing compression garments. Swelling improves steadily over three to six months, with final results maturing between six and twelve months post surgery.
No. Liposuction is a body contouring tool, not a weight loss solution. The best candidates are already at or near their goal weight but struggle with genetically resistant fat deposits that do not respond to diet or exercise. It is a finishing tool, not a shortcut.
This is the most common concern patients express. Dr. Grandhige's approach emphasizes precision and restraint over aggressive fat removal. The goal is results that look athletic and proportional, not overdone. Most patients want people to notice them, not the surgery.
Male patients require a completely different aesthetic eye. The focus is on creating the inverted pyramid torso with broad shoulders and a slim waist, flat masculine chest contours, and angular definition. Techniques that work for female patients can create feminized or unnatural results in men.
Consultations at Formation are comprehensive, personal, and never rushed. Whether you are ready to move forward or simply exploring your options, Dr. Grandhige will provide honest guidance tailored to your goals. As research in the National Library of Medicine confirms, patient education and realistic expectations are key to satisfaction with body contouring procedures.
