What is Body Contouring?
Body contouring refers to procedures done to sculpt or shape the body using invasive and non-invasive techniques. A key aspect of body contouring is the removal of excess skin and excess fat for a tighter and more defined look.
Many people prefer non-invasive body contouring procedures as there’s little to no down time associated with the procedures, yet they yield significant results.
How to Choose the Right Procedure
There are many different body contouring procedures to choose from and all have their own benefits. Here are 4 tips to help you decide which procedure is best for you:
- Target Area – The ideal procedure for you will depend on the area you’re looking to contour or tighten. Focusing on the arms and bra fat? Your ideal treatment process may be quite different from the one designed for toning your thighs and butt.
- Contouring Goals – Are you looking to remove excess fat or tighten sagging skin? Contouring is done in different ways and treatment protocols vary depending on the area of removal or tightening.
- Treatment Time & Downtime – The time you have available to dedicate to the treatment process will also help determine the type of procedure that is best for you. The good news is, many procedures require minimumal downtime!
- Preference for Surgical or Non-Invasive Procedures. – One of the main factors in choosing the best procedure is whether or not you’re willing to undergo surgery or would prefer something less invasive. Anesthesia, surgery, and recovery time or the lack thereof are all important aspects to consider when deciding which procedure is best for you.
