Body Contouring
••
I offer a wide range of body contouring procedures, so I’m able to customize treatment plans for each patient to create natural, flattering results. One of the best ways to contour the body is via liposuction, which removes excess fat from areas that are notoriously stubborn, such as the abdomen and thighs. This fat can then be skillfully transferred elsewhere in the body—including the buttocks and face—to improve shape and contour. My patients appreciate this unique approach to butt augmentation because it uses their own fat instead of introducing new substances to their body.
I also offer the Cellfina cellulite treatment, to smooth skin, and I’m excited to be offering my patients the Renuvion J Plasma skin tightening system, the latest body contouring technology. We can go over all your options and create a tailored treatment plan during your consultation at my Tampa-area practice, Embodiment MedSpa & Plastic Surgery.

Absolutely fantastic!!! Superior Surgeon and Staff.
I've been a OR Nurse for 33 years and so impressed with the concern and care I received.
I traveled 3 hours to have my procedure done and have my next planned. If you go to anyone else, you're missing out.
Dr. Mendoza and team are amazing! You will get the best personalized care and advice to reach your optimal results. I’ve had inner/posterior thigh lipo with Renuvian, mini tummy tuck with Renuvian and lip filler. I’m so thankful for Dr. Mendoza’s skill set and talent. I’m truly very pleased with the results and get so many compliments! They are very accommodating to those who live out of state!
Dr. Mendoza did my eyebrow lift, something I’d wanted since my 20s. Now in my 40s, I finally went for it… I’m so glad I did. He made the whole process easy and comfortable, and I was back to work in just three days. I truly feel like my best self, and the scar is so fine that no one notices unless I point it out. I’d absolutely recommend him!
At 46, I decided it was time to embrace the journey of aging backwards—and Dr. Mendoza has been nothing short of extraordinary in making that possible. From the very first appointment, I knew I was in the hands of someone who not only understands aesthetics, but truly masters them.
We began with injectables, and his technique is unmatched. He works with the most innovative filler on the market, and the results were instant—elegant, natural, and completely downtime-free. It was

The results have been amazing!! It has been a great experience and would highly recommend to anyone looking to improve their appearance.
Great outcome! I was a gorgeous mother of the bride.
Dr. Mendoza treated me with care. He throughly explained the procedures, recovery and expectations.
I received a customized treatment plan for my specific needs. I had a facelift, neck lift and renuvion facial renewal plasma resurfacing.
Dr. Mendoza helped me through my recovery. His care doesn’t end after the surgery.
I’m very happy with my natural results. My skin is luminescent from the plasma resurfacing. The crepey skin
...read moreI had a great experience with Dr Mendoza and the staff at Embodiment MedSpa. I the Renuvion Facial Renewal Plasma Resurfacing on my face, neck and chest. I am amazed at the results. I had so much sun damage from my youth growing up in Florida. The plasma resurfacing did an incredible job of addressing that sun damage. Dr Mendoza was very patient and explained every step of the process from my consultation and through my recovery. The staff was very patient, professional and supportive.

I had chin lipo with renuvion procedure with Dr Mendoza. I am very satisfied with not only how the procedure went, but also, my outcome. He was very honest about what the outcome might or might not be, but assured me I would have much benefit. He's also done filler treatment and explained why he thought one product was better for me than another. He's the only one I will trust with any cosmetic procedure.
I’ve wanted a breast augmentation for 15 years. I always opted to not have surgery until I met the doctor. 2 months and love being comfortable taking my shirt off. I didn’t like what I saw. Now I finally feel comfortable with my body. They look perfect. I was also concerned of the way they would feel and that they would look like oranges. They are natural, he directed me in the correct size and type for my body frame. I feel grateful that I found him.
I’m so happy for internet. He did my surgery 2016 at another office all I can say is he was the best thing that came from there. I could not remember his name today I called the old clinic and some how the receptionist found his name through my phone number. So many people asking who did my lipo and I kept sending them to the old clinic and most of them said your doctor isn’t there any more please find him .....
