Contouring &Treatable Areas
Body Contouring is a very versatile procedure that can be used to remove stubborn fat from almost any area of the body. With a specialized suctioning device, excess fat deposits are permanently removed through small incisions using a thin hollow tube called a cannula.
Neck and Cheeks
Excess fat below the jaw and in the neck can create a double chin, and too much fat in the cheeks can make even a thin person appear much heavier. Procedure can restore a smoother profile to the neck and cheeks to improve definition in the face and along the jawline.
Arms
The accumulation of fat in the upper arms can lead to embarrassing flab that hangs and jiggles with every movement, making many feel self-conscious when wearing clothing that exposes this area. Procedure can remove this excess fat to restore more slender arms with better definition.
Abdomen and Waist
The midsection is one of the most difficult areas to rid of stubborn fat. Procedure produces a slimmer waistline and flatter abdomen by eliminating this resistant fat for good.
Back and Flanks
Many men have extra fat on their backs and sides just above their waists, and women commonly have unnecessary fat along their bra line. Procedure can reduce this fat to achieve a smooth back and eliminate stubborn “love handles.”
Buttocks
Fat deposits that gather in the buttocks can cause permanent sagging and loss of a pleasant butt shape. Procedure will restore a firmer, rounder contour to the buttocks to improve the overall appearance of the butt.
Hips and Thighs
Excessive fat in the hips and thighs can cause unsightly “saddlebags” to develop, often resulting in discomfort and embarrassment. Procedure can provide a slimmer appearance and sculpt your hips and thighs to help make your body bikini-ready and boost your confidence.
Knees and Ankles
Excess fat accumulation in the lower legs can result in flabby knees and “cankles,” causing many to hide their legs even during the warmer summer months. Procedure can effectively contour and remove unwanted fat and sculpt the legs into a thinner and more defined shape.
Before Your Procedure
Before the procedure, it is recommended that you do the following:
- Do not take any anti-inflammatory drugs, such as aspirin or ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin) for at least two weeks.
- Refrain from smoking for at least two weeks
