This procedure is the perfect way to give you the body you dream of with no fat deposits or skin looseness
What is a body contouring procedure?
- Body contouring is a medical procedure that helps you reshape your body after you have lost weight
- In this surgery, the surgeon will make incisions in the treated area and then trim the excess skin and reposition the tissues to create the result you wish for.
- It cannot help you lose weight, only tighten your skin and shape the body.
Before the procedure
You should be aware that stable weight is crucial after the surgery as gaining weight will stress the skin and leave stretch marks. And losing weight will lead to more saggy skin.
At the first visit to your doctor, you will be examined and your medical, surgical, medication history will be taken. The doctor will discuss your expectations and make an individual plan for you.
You might have to stop some medication before the surgery like aspirin or other NSAIDs.
With smoking comes more complications, so you should try to stop smoking or decrease it.
Steps inside the procedures
The first step would be marking the treated sites
Then you’ll go under general anesthesia or sometimes epidural anesthesia which means the anesthesia will be localized in the area from the waist down.
The surgeon will sterilize the treated area then make the incisions. Usually, the incisions are made as hidden as possible, yet some scars might be noticeable. Then the surgeon will trim the excess skin and reposition the tissues. And when finished, bandages will be used.
Body contouring is often performed in stages depending on your condition, goals and the doctor’s judgment.
Procedure’s techniques
There are a lot of techniques in this procedure, all aim to eliminate the excess skin and the hanging fat after your weight loss.
