Procedure -Body Contouring

Body Contouring Procedures

Body contouring encompasses two main categories of procedures: fat removal through liposuction and excess skin removal through various tummy tuck procedures. Each approach offers unique benefits and can be customized to meet individual patient needs.

Liposuction is a sophisticated body contouring procedure that removes unwanted fat deposits to enhance body shape and proportion. Modern liposuction techniques incorporate various energy-based technologies to optimize results and enhance skin tightening.
  • VASER Liposuction: Uses ultrasound energy to break down fat cells selectively while preserving surrounding tissues, resulting in smoother results and faster recovery.
  • Radiofrequency-Assisted Liposuction: Combines traditional liposuction with radiofrequency energy to melt fat and stimulate collagen production, improving skin tightening results.
  • Laser Liposuction: Utilizes laser energy to liquefy fat cells before removal, promoting skin tightening through controlled heating of the underlying tissue.
  • Renuvion: Harnesses the power of radio-frequency and helium-based plasma energy to provide exceptional skin tightening results in conjunction with liposuction.
  1. Infiltration Phase
    • Specially formulated tumescent solution is carefully injected into the treatment area
    • This solution contains local anesthetic and vasoconstrictive medications
    • Helps minimize bleeding and discomfort while facilitating fat removal
  2. Energy Application Phase
    • Selected energy-based device is used to treat the target area
    • Breaks down and emulsifies fat cells for easier removal
    • Simultaneously promotes skin tightening through thermal effects
    • Different technologies offer varying benefits for specific patient needs
  3. Aspiration Phase
    • Emulsified fat is gently removed through small cannulas
    • Precise technique ensures smooth, natural-looking contours
    • Careful attention to symmetry and proportion throughout the process

Excess skin removal through abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) procedures can dramatically improve body contours. Several variations are available to address different patterns of skin excess and patient needs.

Types of Tummy Tuck Procedures

  • Adresses both upper and lower abdominal concerns
  • Involves a horizontal incision from hip to hip
  • Allows for comprehensive muscle repair and skin removal
  • Best for patients with significant skin excess throughout the abdomen.
  •  
  • Focuses on the lower abdomen below the belly button
  • Requires a shorter incision than traditional approach
  • Ideal for patients with minimal upper abdominal skin excess
  • Typically involves less recovery time 
  • Addresses abdomen and flanks/sides
  • Incision extends beyond hips to treat love handles
  • Provides more comprehensive contouring
  • Suitable for patients with significant skin excess extending to sides 
  • Circumferential procedure addressing entire midsection
  • Removes excess skin from abdomen, sides, and lower back
  • Creates dramatic improvement in overall body contour
  • Ideal for massive weight loss patients
  • Focuses on upper abdominal skin excess
  • Incision placed in the inframammary fold
  • Particularly useful for upper abdominal laxity
  • Can be combined with breast procedures when appropriate
