Treatments

Body contouring encompasses a variety of surgical and non-surgical procedures aimed at refining and reshaping the body's contours. These procedures target areas of excess fat, loose skin, or poor elasticity that may result from factors such as weight loss, pregnancy, aging, or genetics. Common body contouring procedures include liposuction to remove localized fat deposits, abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) to tighten the abdomen and remove excess skin, body lifts to address multiple areas such as the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks, and arm or thigh lifts to improve the appearance of the upper arms or thighs. Candidates for body contouring often include individuals who have undergone significant weight loss and are left with excess skin and tissue that cannot be addressed through diet and exercise alone. While body contouring procedures can lead to dramatic improvements in body shape and self-confidence, they also carry surgical risks and require a period of recovery. Consulting with a qualified plastic surgeon is essential to determine the most suitable options and to establish realistic expectations for the outcomes of these procedures.
