Body Contouring

La Peer Health Systems offers body contouring surgery through its Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery department at its Beverly Hills ASC. Procedures performed at the AAAHC-accredited facility include liposuction, abdominoplasty, and combination body contouring in two dedicated operating rooms with full anesthesiology support. The ambulatory setting allows for same-day discharge for appropriate outpatient candidates. Located on Wilshire Boulevard near the West Hollywood border, La Peer serves patients from across the Los Angeles region seeking outpatient body sculpting and contouring procedures in an accredited surgical facility.

Body contouring surgery at La Peer Health Systems is performed within an AAAHC-accredited, Medicare-certified ambulatory surgical center at 8920 Wilshire Boulevard in Beverly Hills — one of the most active markets for aesthetic body surgery in the United States. The Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery department performs a range of outpatient body contouring procedures, with the patient discharged to a responsible adult caregiver the same day following recovery room observation. Liposuction is the core body contouring procedure offered at the facility, performed under general anesthesia using tumescent technique. Subcutaneous adipose tissue is aspirated from targeted areas including the abdomen, flanks, back, hips, inner and outer thighs, arms, and submental region. The tumescent fluid — containing saline, local anesthetic, and epinephrine — reduces bleeding, provides sustained post-operative analgesia, and allows safe treatment of larger volumes in the ambulatory setting. Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) is also performed at La Peer, addressing excess lower abdominal skin and fat along with repair of rectus diastasis — the midline muscle separation commonly caused by pregnancy or weight fluctuation. The procedure uses a low transverse incision placed within the bikini line, with umbilical transposition and muscle plication as standard components of the full abdominoplasty technique. Mini-abdominoplasty, limited to the lower abdominal panel without umbilical transposition, is appropriate for patients with isolated infraumbilical skin excess and intact muscle tone. Combination procedures, including simultaneous liposuction and abdominoplasty or multiple-area liposuction in a single session, can be performed at La Peer when the total surgical duration and anesthetic risk are within safe ambulatory parameters. Patients from West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Bel Air, and greater Los Angeles benefit from the facility's extended Monday through Saturday operating schedule.
