Dr. David T. Morwood performs body procedures in Monterey for patients seeking aesthetic and functional improvement. Fluctuations in weight and the effects of aging, childbearing, and genetics can all change the appearance of areas of our body. A body procedure from Dr. Morwood is often the ideal solution.
Dr. Morwood is a board-certified plastic surgeon whose expertise has benefited patients in his private practice since 1991. His expertise and caring spirit provide patients excellent results and comfort throughout their experience.
Abdominoplasty
Cosmetic abdominal surgery, also called a tummy tuck, is one of the most commonly performed surgical body procedures. During abdominoplasty surgery, Dr. Morwood will create a slimmer and more toned appearance in the midsection by first repairing underlying stretched or separated muscles. Once the doctor has reduced the excess skin tissue and completed the needed muscle tightening and reattachment, he will reposition the remaining skin tissue back into place and create a new belly button opening before closing the primary incision.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a versatile procedure performed to eliminate pockets of excess fat. This is one of the most popular body-contouring procedures due to its proven results. Liposuction is a highly customized procedure, and Dr. Morwood utilizes different techniques to ensure that each patient receives optimal results.
Labiaplasty
When the external folds of vaginal skin surrounding the vulva are disproportionately large, it can create significant physical and emotional discomfort. Labiaplasty surgery is revision of the labia minora and labia majora skin folds for symmetry and improved physical comfort during intimacy and daily activities. This procedure has a very high patient satisfaction rate.
Brachioplasty
The arm lift, or brachioplasty, is ever-increasing in popularity. The appearance of flabby upper-arm tissue that jiggles and swings with every movement can be frustrating and embarrassing. During brachioplasty surgery, Dr. Morwood will remove excess skin and tighten the underlying connective tissue before redraping the remaining skin. Pockets of excess fat can also be removed during this procedure.
Vectra 3-D Imaging
When considering cosmetic surgery, wouldn’t it be great if you had a crystal ball to preview your results? Now, patients can view approximated three-dimensional images of what their bodies will look like after surgery with Vectra 3-D imaging. This innovative technology provides images as they would appear from every angle. It has become an essential part of body-procedure consultations.
Consultation for Body Procedures
A consultation with Dr. Morwood is the first step in determining which body procedure is ideal for the patient’s objectives. During the consultation, the patient will discuss their reasons for considering a body procedure. The doctor will examine the patient’s anatomy and skin tissue and carefully review their medical history, including current medications and allergies.
Dr. Morwood will then create a surgical plan for the chosen body procedure. He will go over the specifics of the plan in great detail, including preparation and recovery. Questions are encouraged.
