Body contouring surgeries

The purpose of body contouring, or body sculpting, is to reshape a body area. Various procedures may be used to achieve this.

• Get rid of excess skin.
• Get rid of excess fat.
• Shape or contour the area.

In most cases, body contouring does not lead to weight loss. Instead, it helps shape the body and target trouble spots where weight loss hasn't been successful or after significant weight loss results in excessive skin.

Also, surgical options can remove excess skin to make it look smoother and younger. These procedures can benefit people with excess skin after a significant weight loss. Additionally, it can improve loose, saggy, or wrinkled skin that occurs with natural aging.

Most parts of the body can be contoured. The most common areas are:

• Arms.
• Back.
• Belly and flanks (love handles).
• Buttocks.
• Neck and chin.
• Thighs.

This treatment usually requires several sessions before results are seen.

Advantages of Body Sculpting

Body contouring patients often report:

• Well-defined, well-shaped body parts.
• Younger, slimmer appearance.
• A smoother complexion.
• Significant improvement in symptoms.

If diet and exercise aren't working, body contouring can help eliminate fat and shape areas of the body. Being at your proper weight improves the quality of the results with fewer complications. Various body sculpting procedures can tighten and smooth loose or wrinkled skin, such as skin excision.
