Tummy Tuck
Also known as abdominoplasty, a tummy tuck dramatically transforms the abdominal area by removing excess fat and skin while tightening the core muscles. It can reduce the appearance of an obtrusive stomach, and create or enhance an hour-glass figure. The tummy tuck is designed for men and women who have tried to tone their abdomens with diet and exercise but have been unable to achieve the results they desire. Many new moms are interested in a tummy tuck procedure along with a breast lift to help restore their pre-pregnancy figures. Other tummy tuck candidates include those who desire to improve the effects that significant weight loss, aging, or genetics have had on their abdominal regions.
A tummy tuck, while common, is a major surgical procedure and does leave a permanent scar. Scarring can be hidden, but if it is an extensive operation, it could stretch all the way across the hips. Dr. Gregory Wittpenn has years of successful experience in performing tummy tucks and knows how to achieve the look you want with the least amount of scarring. We invite you to schedule a tummy tuck consultation at our practice near Tyler, Longview, and Lufkin, Texas. Dr. Wittpenn and the staff at New Horizons Plastic Surgery look forward to helping you achieve the figure you desire.
VASER® Liposuction
Liposuction is one of the most popular forms of body enhancement. This contouring procedure removes unwanted fatty tissue to slenderize and emphasize the figure. Using the VASER® LipoSelection® system, Dr. Gregory Wittpenn can reveal a more flattering form—whether around your legs, waist, back, or any other place that needs sculpting. Imagine having shapelier thighs, smoother arms, a more attractive neck and chin… even these delicate areas can be treated with VASER® LipoSelection®.
Different from traditional liposuction surgery, the VASER® system uses ultrasonic technology to break down fatty tissue; incredibly, the ultrasound energy leaves the surrounding nerve and connective tissue relatively undamaged. The ultrasonic waves liquefy the fatty tissue, and the fat is then suctioned away through a special tube called a cannula. As a result of the procedure, beautifully smooth skin and taut, streamlined contours are revealed.
Compared to traditional liposuction, VASER® LipoSelection® treatment results in noticeably less pain during and after the procedure, as well as minimal swelling and bruising. Dr. Wittpenn will give you detailed instructions to follow during the recovery period to ensure that you heal as quickly as possible.

Arm Lift
One of the tell-tale signs of aging is found in the arms: as muscle mass diminishes and gravity continues to pull, skin and fat around the arm begins to sag and sway. Brachioplasty, commonly called an "arm lift," remedies sagging, flabby arms by removing excess skin and fat. The procedure leaves the arm area looking tighter and more toned. If necessary, additional liposuction can be performed in conjunction with the arm lift to remove especially large amounts of fat from the upper arms.
Body Lift
A body lift is an extensive form of body contouring that removes excess skin and fat tissue. After pregnancy or significant weight loss, the skin often remains stretched and loose. Body lift surgery radically alters the patient's figure, restoring firmness and tone to the entire body. The lengthy procedure is performed differently by every plastic surgeon, but generally involves a tummy tuck, some liposuction, and the tightening of skin and muscle tissue throughout the body. If you have recently lost between 60 and 350 pounds, or your body is unbalanced after multiple pregnancies, contact Dr. Gregory Wittpenn today to learn more about how a body lift can benefit you.
Spider Vein Removal
Genetics, pregnancy, weight gain—these are just some of the known causes of those super-fine webs of red veins that cluster just beneath the skin's surface. Telangiectasias, also known as "spider veins," are not essential to the body's greater venous system and can be linked to such symptoms as aching, burning, and night cramps. At New Horizons, we can remove unwanted spider veins through a procedure called sclerotherapy. Veins are injected with a sclerosing solution, causing them to collapse and diminish in appearance. Though several treatments are usually required, the sessions take less than an hour and regular activity can be resumed quickly.
