Body Contouring Customized to Your Unique Anatomy

Dr. Plant takes a customized approach to every procedure, combining techniques that best suit your unique anatomy and goals—often in ways other surgeons won’t. Depending on your needs, your body contouring plan may include one or more of the following procedures:

Liposuction

Read more

Liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure that involves making tiny incisions placed in well hidden areas (bikini area, armpits etc..) that allow Dr. Plant to remove excess subcutaneous fat in areas that can be resistant to diet and exercise. By using one or more of the different liposuction techniques in his repertoire (such as VASER, Power Assisted Liposuction and SAFELipo) to customize an approach that meets your unique goals, Dr. Plant can target unwanted fat pretty much anywhere on your body.

Brazilian Butt Lift

Read more

This procedure involves using liposuction to harvest fat from areas you don’t want it and transfer it to the butt and hips to get you the “perfect” hourglass shape. This is the perfect procedure to help create curves in areas that just can’t be targeted in the gym, like the hip dips and the lower buttock curves. Once upon a time this procedure was exclusively associated with unnatural and overly dramatic curves, however by emphasising the creation of “nice butts” rather than “big butts” Dr. Plant has refined it to be able to provide curves that will fit your frame perfectly and no one will know you’ve had them surgically enhanced unless you tell them…

Breast Augmentation

Read more

Although it is not technically a “body contouring” procedure, a breast augmentation is a very common procedure performed along with body contouring procedures because there is no way to increase the size of the breasts with diet or exercise.

Mini Thighplasty

Read more

Tightens and reshapes the inner thigh by combining liposuction with a small incision in the groin crease to remove excess fat and tighten the skin for a more toned look.

Lipo360

Read more

This is one of the most powerful body contouring procedures in Dr. Plant’s toolbelt. Using liposuction to treat the entire abdomen, flanks and full back Dr. Plant can dramatically narrow the waist and completely reshape your silhouette. For an even more powerful change, this procedure can be combined with a fat transfer to the butt and/or hips to truly refine the entire hourglass.

No-Drain Tummy Tuck

Read more

Flattens and tightens the abdomen by removing excess skin and repairing stretched or separated muscles for a toned, sculpted midsection.

Breast Lift

Read more

Restores a youthful breast shape by lifting and reshaping sagging breasts, often combined with an augmentation or fat transfer for the best overall results.

Gynecomastia Correction

Read more

Up to 70% of men suffer from some degree of gynecomastia, or the presence of breast tissue on their chests. Many men will spend years in the gym trying to correct the problem but don’t realize it is actually a medical condition that requires surgery to correct. If you’ve been doing everything you can in the gym and still can’t get the flat chest and defined pecs you’re looking for, then you may very well have gynecomastia that will never resolve no matter how much you bench press.

Skin Tightening

Read more

Tightens and reshapes the upper arms by removing loose skin and fat, combining liposuction with a small incision in the armpit for a firmer, more sculpted appearance.

Mini Tummy Tuck

Read more

A great option for patients with a little bit of loose skin in the lower abdomen that is more than skin tightening can handle, but who otherwise have good muscle tone and minimal or no excess skin on the upper abdomen.

From consultation to sculpting a balanced, proportional silhouette

Consultation

At Lawrence Park Plastic Surgery, your body contouring journey begins with a personalized consultation with Dr. Mathew Plant in Toronto. During this one-on-one session, Dr. Plant will assess your body shape, discuss your goals, and evaluate areas of concern. Together, you’ll develop a customized treatment plan that focuses on enhancing your natural curves and refining your silhouette for authentic, natural-looking results. You’ll have the chance to ask him any questions you might have, so you can feel fully informed and confident in your decision. It’s a valuable opportunity to hear directly from the surgeon performing your procedure, not a sales consultant, so you get clear, personalized guidance rooted in medical expertise.

Before Your Surgery

In preparation for your body contouring procedure, Dr. Plant’s team will provide clear, easy-to-follow instructions—personally written by Dr. Plant—to ensure you feel confident, informed, and fully prepared for your surgery. A few weeks before your procedure, you’ll have a personalized phone call with our nurse to go over important details and answer initial questions. This is followed by an in-person pre-operative visit with Dr. Plant, where you'll review everything together. This step-by-step guidance is designed to help you feel at ease, optimize your results, and support a smooth, successful recovery. Throughout the process, the Lawrence Park Plastic Surgery team is always available to provide answers, reassurance, and support.

Surgery

On the day of your procedure, Dr. Plant will meet with you beforehand to review the surgical plan, answer any final questions, and complete your pre-surgery markings. To help ease any nerves, you’ll even choose the music playing in the operating room while Dr. Plant and his anesthesiologist guide you through the final steps. Once you’re comfortably under anesthesia, Dr. Plant will apply advanced contouring techniques tailored to your body and desired outcome. Whether that includes liposuction, skin tightening, or another sculpting approach, every detail is performed with precision to deliver a smooth, natural-looking result. His meticulous technique helps ensure a comfortable experience and beautifully refined outcome.

Results

After your body contouring procedure, you’ll begin to see your enhanced silhouette as swelling subsides and your body adjusts to its new contours. Over the following weeks, your results will continue to improve, showcasing a more sculpted, proportional figure. Dr. Plant’s attention to detail ensures that your results look natural, enhance your body’s natural proportions, and give you a confidence-boosting transformation that aligns with your goals. Follow-up calls and appointments, starting the day after surgery, will ensure you’re healing well and achieving the desired outcome.

My experience with Dr. Plant and his staff has been outstanding from start to finish. I attended three consultations before choosing a surgeon, and although Dr. Plant was the only one who required a consultation fee, it was well worth it. From the moment I entered the office, I felt comfortable and confident in my decision. The staff are welcoming and friendly—never intimidating, which is rare in a plastic surgery practice. Dr. Plant stood out by offering a surgical approach that minimized scarring and downtime, something no other surgeon proposed. Having spent my career in the medical field working closely with specialist physicians, I found Dr. Plant to be exceptionally personable, attentive, and thorough. He listened carefully, answered all my questions, and addressed considerations I hadn’t even thought of. I am now six weeks post-op and extremely pleased with my results. I highly recommend Dr. Plant and his practice for any type of surgery.

Starting from the consultation, Dr. Plant exceeded all of my expectations. He truly listened to my concerns and made me feel heard, respected, and completely at ease. I felt supported and informed every step of the way. On the day of the procedure, the experience was both professional and personal. I wasn’t scared at all! Dr. Plant and his incredible staff created such a calming environment. Everyone was so kind, supportive, and attentive, and I felt completely taken care of from the moment I arrived. I’m 3 weeks into recovery, and everything has gone so smoothly. I’m absolutely thrilled with the results already! I know making a decision like this can be intimidating, but Dr. Plant helped me feel confident, comfortable, and completely safe in my choice. This experience has been life changing!

I was truly amazed by Dr. Matthew Plant. He is the first doctor who actually gave me a real diagnosis . I’ve struggled with this issue my entire life, and despite undergoing multiple surgeries, no one had ever truly identified the root cause — until now. This was my third surgery, and Dr. Plant was able to correct something that others couldn’t. Not only is he a highly skilled and talented surgeon, but he is also a genuinely compassionate human being. He took the time to listen to me, to answer all my questions, and more importantly, he made me feel seen and understood. I had carried a lot of shame and felt "broken," but he reframed my situation — he treated me like an interesting challenge, and that changed everything for me. The experience as a whole was exceptional — from the elegance of his beautiful Toronto office to the warmth and professionalism of his team. Marianne, Daniela, and Alex were outstanding — always available, day or night. We even booked the surgery on a Saturday afternoon, and I had questions on a Sunday night that were answered without hesitation. They were consistently kind, attentive, and supportive throughout the entire process. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Plant and his incredible team. Even in a vulnerable and difficult situation, they manage to make you feel like you truly matter. That kind of care is rare — and deeply appreciated.

After waiting over 20 years for this kind of surgery (TT,Lipo, MR) I finally chose Dr. Mathew Plant — and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. Not only is his work meticulous, but what impressed me the most is that Dr. Plant is even more particular and detail-oriented than any patient could hope for. His high standards gave me so much confidence, and it truly shows in my results. He may not say much, but his work speaks louder than words. His entire team — from the kind and supportive nurses to the office staff who are always quick to respond — made the whole experience even more comforting. They treat patients like family, and I felt cared for every step of the way. Thank you, Dr. Plant, for your perfectionism, your quiet confidence, and for delivering results beyond what I ever imagined.

Best Surgery I’ve Ever Had! My experience with Dr Plant was amazing, absolutely Night and Day different versus my previous surgical experience. I cannot even begin to explain how satisfied I am with my results! I had been telling Dr Plant that my scar and muscles on my left side from my previous surgery had left me with discomfort and ww discussed every issue in detail, and he addressed them with different techniques/parts of his procedure to support my implant; now my breasts are perfect! I couldn’t be happier! Cannot wait to see him again for any work.

My experience was overall amazing here. Prior to finding Dr. Plant, I did 5 other consults with plastic surgeons. None of my friends had used him, so I truly went with him based on instinct and a good vibe. I am a very, very anxious and neurotic person, and I really don't think I could have picked a better surgeon. Why I picked him: I lost about 75lbs, and my chest looked horrific. Super thin crepey skin, very deflated, rocks-in-socks, sort of aesthetic. I went from a G cup to a small B. For me, I was drawn to someone who had lots of experience in "mommy makeover" surgeries. I don't have children, but my chest looked like I breastfed a litter of them. I figured if he is comfortable working on difficult post-baby bodies, that mine would be similar to work on. I am fairly scrawny, about 100 lbs on a 5'5 frame. I went into my consult with no set size in mind, but I did have a general description. I'm pretty sure I described it as "adult actress shape, but not so big that I need custom bras." I knew I would likely need a lift and the internal bra (galaflex), based on recommendations from prior consults. He agreed with this, but took the time to explain exactly why I needed them, instead of blindly telling me it was a necessity. He helped me pick a size that perfectly matched my goals. I never felt pressured to choose a certain size or shape. He had me try on similar sizes multiple times to compare subtle differences. My pre-op consult was insanely thorough. He's super easy to talk to and interact with. The staff are phenomenal and so so easy to talk to and engage with. My surgery was totally unremarkable, in the best way possible. No issues, all went smoothly, amazing staff follow up. I got a super minor infection from reacting to the dissolvable sutures, and the practice handled it immediately. It healed flawlessly with no scar. The scars from the surgery itself are impeccable. While I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Plant, it was honestly his staff that sold me on the practice, specifically Daniella. Every staff that I interacted with was amazing, but it was her who I was in the most communication with. She was the deciding factor in me getting the surgery, because she is truly that good at her job. Thank you guys, I appreciate y'all so much!

Body Contouring: Your Questions, Answered

View All
What is Body Contouring?

Body contouring is a combination of cosmetic procedures designed to reshape and enhance your body’s natural proportions. It targets stubborn fat, loose skin, and other areas that resist diet and exercise to create a more sculpted, defined silhouette. Whether using liposuction, skin tightening, or other advanced techniques, body contouring delivers natural-looking results that refine your body’s shape and boost your confidence.

Do you offer body contouring for men?

Yes, Dr. Plant offers body contouring for men. Whether you’re looking to sculpt your abdomen, define your chest, or enhance your natural proportions, body contouring procedures can help achieve a more defined, masculine physique.

Men often seek body contouring to target stubborn fat, tighten loose skin, and refine body contours in areas like the abdomen, flanks, and love handles. Dr. Plant tailors each procedure to the unique anatomy and aesthetic goals of his male patients, ensuring natural-looking results that complement your body’s proportions.

Am I a good candidate for body contouring?

You may be a good candidate for body contouring if you’re in overall good health, have specific areas of your body where fat or skin has not responded to diet or exercise, and you have realistic expectations. Ideal candidates are typically within a healthy weight range but may have areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or arms that they’d like to contour for a more balanced, sculpted appearance. During your consultation, Dr. Plant will assess your goals and determine the best treatment plan for you.

How long does a body contouring procedure take?

The duration of body contouring depends on the specific procedures involved and the areas being treated. For example, liposuction may take 1 to 3 hours depending on how many areas are being addressed. Other procedures like skin tightening or non-invasive treatments may take less time. Dr. Plant will give you a personalized estimate based on your treatment plan.

What results can I expect from body contouring?

Body contouring enhances your body’s natural contours, delivering a more toned, defined, and proportionate appearance. Whether through fat removal, skin tightening, or other methods, you can expect a sculpted silhouette that looks and feels natural. Dr. Plant’s expertise ensures that your results enhance your body without overdoing it, leaving you with a refreshed, confident look that aligns with your goals.

How soon will I see results from body contouring?

You may notice initial improvements right after the procedure, but final results typically appear after the swelling subsides, usually within 1 to 3 months. The healing process is gradual, and as the body adjusts, the contours will refine over time. Dr. Plant’s expertise in shaping and sculpting ensures that you’ll see beautifully natural, balanced results that align with your expectations.

How long is the recovery period after body contouring?

Recovery from body contouring varies depending on the procedures involved, but most patients can return to light activities within a few days to a week. Swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are common during the initial recovery period. Dr. Plant provides comprehensive aftercare instructions, including wearing compression garments to support the healing process, as well as follow-up visits to ensure optimal results. You’ll gradually resume normal activities as you heal, with the final contours becoming clearer in the weeks to come.

Are the results of body contouring permanent?

The results of body contouring are long-lasting, especially if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. While fat removed during liposuction is permanent, it’s important to note that weight fluctuations can affect your results over time. Maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise routine will help preserve your sculpted silhouette for the long term.

Are there risks associated with body contouring?

As with any surgical procedure, body contouring carries some risks, such as infection, scarring, or changes in skin sensation. However, when performed by an experienced surgeon like Dr. Plant, the risks are minimal.

Dr. Plant prioritizes patient safety and precision, using the most advanced techniques and protocols to minimize risks and promote optimal results. During your consultation, he will discuss any potential concerns and how they are managed, ensuring you feel fully informed and confident in your decision.

Does body contouring affect my ability to move or exercise post-op?

After body contouring, it’s normal to experience some temporary discomfort, swelling, and tightness, which can impact your mobility during the initial recovery period. While you’ll be able to resume light activities after a few days, you’ll need to avoid strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, or activities that strain the treated areas for several weeks.

Dr. Plant will provide detailed recovery instructions to help you gradually return to your normal routine while ensuring that you protect your results. With proper care and following the recommended aftercare guidelines, you’ll be able to move more freely and comfortably as your body heals, and you’ll be able to enjoy the full benefits of your body contouring procedure.

How much does body contouring cost in Toronto?

The cost of body contouring varies based on the specific procedures performed, the areas treated, and the overall complexity of your treatment plan. Dr. Plant will provide you with a personalized estimate during your consultation, ensuring you understand the cost of your procedure and the value of the customized care you’ll receive.

Can I combine body contouring with other procedures?

Yes, body contouring can be combined with other procedures for a more comprehensive transformation. Many patients choose to pair body contouring with treatments like tummy tucks, breast augmentations, or facelifts for a full-body rejuvenation.

Dr. Plant customizes each surgical plan to ensure safe, natural-looking results while prioritizing your health and recovery. During your consultation, he will assess your goals and recommend the best approach to achieve your desired outcome safely and effectively.
