(Newswire.net — May 17, 2022) — Have you ever thought of having plastic surgery? Here’s what you should know.
Why would someone get plastic surgery?
If you’ve ever considered plastic surgery, you may have pictured surgical procedures like a tummy tuck or liposuction that require lots of recovery time. While these options are safe and effective (and Athenix’s new technology allows less invasive versions!), plastic surgery options aren’t just for drastic changes. Less invasive body sculpting procedures can deliver fantastic, lasting results.
Body contouring targets fat
When diet and exercise are just not enough to achieve the look you want, Athenix offers body sculpting procedures that can help achieve extraordinary results with targeted fat reduction. Whether it’s taking care of some excess skin after weight loss or simply removing a small area of stubborn fat, these procedures can help restore a firm, toned appearance. In this article, we’ll cover why someone who’s in relatively good physical shape and wants to target specific areas of fat (versus overall weight loss) might greatly benefit from body sculpting, and we’ll take a deeper look at some options.
Types of body contouring
Body contouring is the process of reducing fat in targeted areas using surgical or non-surgical procedures to create a more defined look. With our new technology and expert surgeons, many-body contouring choices are available. The best option for someone will depend on their preferences and goals, especially which areas they’re looking to target. At Athenix we offer:
- Liposuction/micro-body contouring
- Venus Legacy cellulite treatment
- Fat transfer
- Body lifts
- Loose skin removal
- Weight loss with a gastric balloon
Now let’s take a deeper look at body lifts and micro-body contouring.
Body lift
A body lift is a surgical procedure often done after significant weight loss to treat excess skin on the lower body. Even after losing weight, people may struggle with surplus skin and fat. The process removes excess skin from the abdomen, butt, and thighs, as well as tightens muscles to create a smoother look. This is an excellent option for women who lose weight after pregnancy and want to get back their pre-pregnancy body, or for those who go through a significant weight loss. It’s common to gain weight in the hips, buttocks, and thighs while pregnant. As opposed to a tummy tuck, a lower body lift can treat all of those areas as well as the tummy. It’s an incredible contouring solution for reshaping after weight loss.
Using micro-contouring to remove specific areas of fat
What’s the difference between micro-body contouring and traditional liposuction? micro-body contouring is a gentler, less invasive process of permanently removing fat. During the procedure, experts gently and carefully dislodge fat from connective tissue. Then they use small tubes called micro-cannulas to remove the fat through small, discreet incisions. Depending on which area is targeted, the results could create a flatter stomach, narrower hips, and smaller thighs or arms. A considerable benefit of this technique is that it can be used on large or small areas of fat. You can slim down larger areas like “bra rolls” on the back or do more detailed contouring on a smaller area for a subtle tightening effect.
Where can you get micro-body contouring?
micro-body contouring can be done on arms, thighs, buttocks, abdomen, and hips. In a single session, you can get micro-body contouring on multiple body areas. For example, you could do contouring on the buttocks, thighs, and hips all in a single treatment session and still be good to go in a few days. Please schedule a consultation with us to get the best advice about which areas to target at the same time.
The pros of micro-body contouring
With micro-body contouring, you get immediate, permanent results in a single treatment. Clients report only mild discomfort. With some rest, they’re back to normal activities in just a few days.
The best part is the immediate difference and the superior results. The new treatment technologies that we use at Athenix have immediate visible results and little recovery time. Plus, our skilled liposuction surgeons who specialize in body contouring use the most advanced body sculpting technologies that result in minimal swelling and hidden incision scars. With those stubborn areas of fat finally gone, patients’ clothes fit better, they’re more confident, and they look and feel amazing.
Who might get body contouring?
There are so many reasons people choose to get body sculpting procedures, from micro-body sculpting to a body lift. For most clients, dieting and exercise have helped them sculpt their bodies, but there are those problematic places where fat reduction is impossible. Even if you work out constantly, those stubborn spots — like the inside of the thigh and the upper arm — are resistant to every tip and trick in the book. That’s why these procedures are such popular requests. Body sculpting offers a permanent solution.
For some, plastic surgery is a way to get rid of a lot of fat or skin — for example, removing the excess skin after a major weight loss or post-pregnancy. For others, there’s only a small amount of fat to be removed. But a tiny amount can make a big difference. If someone is active but can’t lose that last bit of fat, micro-body sculpting creates a toned, firm look. Our surgeons know not to take too much, leaving our clients with natural results that improve their body shape. micro-body contouring is a great option for people looking for a minimally invasive way to kick that last bit of fat and add some nice subtle contours to their bodies.
Whether a noninvasive or a slightly more invasive procedure might be the right option, our body sculpting techniques are all safe and FDA-approved and deliver incredible results.
