body shaping

Body shaping or body contouring is an alternative to liposuction used to tighten, firm and shape the body for a more youthful appearance. The introduction of body contouring has allowed the cosmetic surgeon to receive training in more than one method for the dissolution of fat and the tightening of skin cells. The procedure also can be done for breast reduction where only excess fat is removed.

How quick will the recovery period take?

The patient can return to their normal activities almost immediately after the procedure although it is advisable to avoid strenuous sports, hot showers for 10 days, or intense massage for 4-5 weeks.

Will I have bruises or scars after the procedure?

The after effects of bruising or swelling after treatment is significantly reduced compared to other more invasive procedures. Due to the therapeutic effects of the laser, it coagulates the blood vessels immediately, which reduces trauma beneath the skin. The point of entry for the laser treatment is so small that it does not require any stitches; only surgical glue and plaster is required.

When will I get to see results?

Some patients may see immediate results, with aspiration of excess fat. On average, most see the final results in about 2-3 months. There would be good improvement in the contour, regularity and contraction of the skin.

How long does the result last?

Results are long term, giving rise to a harmonious silhouette. It is important to note, however, the treatment does not guarantee that one would not gain weight or accumulate fat deposits in other areas of the body.
