Body contouring
About Body contouring

Body contouring in plastic surgery refers to a set of procedures aimed at reshaping and sculpting the body by removing excess fat and skin and enhancing the contours of specific areas. These procedures are often sought by individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight through diet, exercise, or bariatric surgery and are left with loose, sagging skin or stubborn pockets of fat that do not respond to traditional weight loss methods.
Advantages of body contouring include:
- Improved Body Proportions: Body contouring procedures can help achieve more balanced and proportionate body contours by removing excess fat and skin from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, arms, and buttocks.
- Enhanced Body Shape: Contouring procedures such as liposuction and abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) can help sculpt and define specific areas of the body, creating a smoother, more toned appearance.
- Skin Tightening: Body contouring procedures often include techniques to tighten and firm the skin, helping to reduce sagging and improve overall skin texture and elasticity.
- Boost in Confidence: Achieving a more sculpted and toned physique through body contouring can lead to increased self-confidence and self-esteem, allowing individuals to feel more comfortable and confident in their own skin.
- Improved Mobility and Comfort: Excess skin and fat can cause physical discomfort and limitations in movement. Body contouring procedures can alleviate these issues, allowing for greater freedom of movement and improved comfort.
- Long-lasting Results: While maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential for preserving results, the effects of body contouring procedures are typically long-lasting, providing patients with lasting improvements in body shape and appearance.
It’s important to note that body contouring procedures are not a substitute for weight loss or a healthy lifestyle. Ideal candidates for these procedures are individuals who have achieved a stable weight and are in good overall health but have specific areas of concern that they would like to address. Consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon is essential to determine the most suitable body contouring options based on individual goals and needs.
Possible complications include swelling, bruising, scarring.
