San Francisco Plastic Surgery

If you want to improve the appearance of your body, San Francisco plastic surgery expert Joseph A. Mele, M.D., F.A.C.S. can help you achieve your goals.

Dr. Mele is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) and the American Board of Surgery (ABS). He is also a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). Located in Walnut Creek, California, while serving all of the San Francisco area, Dr. Mele performs a variety of plastic surgery procedures.

Some of the body contouring procedures available at the practice of our San Francisco plastic surgeon, includes:

  • Liposuction: Want to get rid of excess fat? Liposuction, or "lipoplasty," is a procedure that Dr. Mele can perform on various areas of the body. In order to perform liposuction, a cannula, a narrow tube, is used to vacuum out excess fat.

    • Some of the common areas for liposuction:

    • Chin
    • Breasts
    • Abdomen
    • Hips
    • Thighs
    • Buttocks
  • Arm Lift: After dramatic weight loss, the person is usually left with excess skin on the upper arms. An arm lift, or "brachioplasty," can improve the appearance of the arm by removing the excess skin; Dr. Mele, a reputable San Francisco body lift expert, will tighten the flabby tissue.

  • Tummy Tuck, "abdominoplasty": A tummy tuck entails the removal of excess fat and skin from the abdominal region. In many cases, a tummy tuck is paired up with liposuction for optimal body contouring results.
