Steps of Body Contouring Procedures

Of course, the exact steps differ from one patient to another, based on the treatment plan set by the surgeon. Here is a simple overview of the various procedures commonly used in body contouring.

1. Fat Removal (Liposuction)

In this step, the surgeon identifies areas with unwanted fat accumulation and removes them using different techniques, such as:

Power-assisted liposuction (using devices to break down fat cells)

Laser-assisted liposuction

VASER liposuction

Traditional surgical liposuction (now less preferred due to internal bruising and trauma)

2. Fat Processing and Re-injection

In some cases, fat is removed from one area and re-injected into another to enhance body shape. This requires modern equipment to purify and prepare the fat for reuse.

Common areas for re-injection include:

Buttocks

Breasts

Face

This method is considered the safest as the material used comes from the patient’s own body.

3. Skin Tightening

After liposuction, skin may sag depending on its elasticity:

Mild sagging: Treated with devices like J-Plasma, which stimulate collagen and tighten the skin.

Severe sagging: May require surgical skin tightening for optimal results.

This is usually the final stage in the procedure.
