Scareless Breast Augmentation |
A Johannesburg prominent plastic surgeon explains… Contemporary media, including cinematography and glossy magazines have promoted large breasts as a symbol of beauty and sexuality; notice the image of Barbie with her small hips, waist and disproportionate large breasts.

Arms and Inner Thigh Elevation (after massive weight loss) |

Young men and women with elastic skin will benefit from liposculpture of the inner thighs and arms but older individuals who underwent massive weight loss require excess skin excision. An attempt to conceal the scar in the arm pit or in the skin crease of the groin is made in the suitable candidates. This scar requires a year or more to settle completely.
