breast tightening: firming and tightening the breast is called a mastopexy. It raises the nipple on the profile of the breast.
breast reduction:making the breast smaller is called reduction mammoplasty. It can sometimes be done with liposuction.
abdominoplasty: removing fat and skin from the abdomen is a "tummy tuck". It is needed when loose skin or skin and fat are the problem.
brachioplasty: tightening the upper arm skin is an arm lift, sometimes liposuction alone is enough.
thigh and buttock lift: tightening the upper leg skin and fat is used to improve the appearance of the buttock and thigh. Buttock implants are used but this is not a widely accepted technique.
gynecomastia: breast reduction in men removes the excess fat in the breast that bothers so many men.
