People used to see body contouring as a simple procedure that involved removing fat, and making a body area smaller. Cosmetic surgery today is much more complex. Surgeons will now consider the patient’s shape, desired shape proportions to fat distribution, as well as skin quality before they recommend an appropriate treatment plan.

PRM Cosmetic Surgery can customize procedures based on these elements. There are many options, from liposuction to fat transfer or other techniques that can improve skin laxity. Surgeons are able to employ many methods to create a body contour.
Proportion is key to the best liposuction.
Patients searching for the best liposuction may naturally focus on how much fat can be removed. A more useful question is how the removal of fat can affect the overall appearance of a person.
For example, removing fat from the abdominal area could alter the relationship between the waist and hips. Treatment of the flanks might further define this transition. Precision is important because weight reduction does not always translate to better. It’s crucial to preserve the natural body shape of the patient and create more rounded contours.
PRM is a leading provider of advanced treatments such as tumescent numbing liposuction. The procedure is tailored to fit the area being treated as well as the goals of the patient.
Skin Quality is Important
Skin and fat behave in different ways. While liposuction is able to remove localized fat, this doesn’t mean that the skin overlying the fat will shrink as you would like.
Skin tightening is a subject that can be discussed. Age, genetics and previous weight changes, along with pregnancy and elasticity, could affect the skin’s response to contouring.
Renuvion® J-Plasma is one technology that may be used to treat tissue looseness that is a concern in an treatment plan. Instead of tightening being an afterthought for surgeons, they may consider skin features as an element of the initial body contouring plan.
Quantum RF and the conversation
The use of radiofrequency technology in aesthetic medicine has expanded options. Quantum Radiofrequency is another option that can be considered when discussing body contouring or tissue tightening.
Technology, however, is only a part of the treatment. The most sophisticated devices cannot replace careful selection of the patient, anatomy knowledge or surgical judgment. Patients should learn, during a consult the reason why a particular technology is advised, its use, as well as any limitations that may apply to the device.
A Brazilian Butt Lift can change the shape of your butt more than the Buttocks.
A Brazilian butt lift can be an interesting example of how contemporary contouring is a process that involves establishing relationships between various parts of the body. The process involves transferring patient’s fat from specific donor areas into their buttocks.
The result visually is accomplished by two different changes: contouring the areas where the fat has been removed and adding volume if needed. The final shape of the body may be dependent on the waist or abdomen, as well as the flanks and thighs.
A Personalized Plan is More Important Than the newest trend
The popularity of one particular technique or technology should not be a deciding factor when choosing a cosmetic procedure. Two people requesting slimmer thighs may have very different fat distribution and skin elasticity, as well as proportions, and expectations.
PRM Cosmetic surgery emphasizes individual treatment and provides many procedures for contouring the body that are customized to the specific needs of each patient. An extensive consultation allows for an analysis of anatomy, treatment options, recovery time, possible risk factors, and achievable results prior to deciding whether surgery or other cosmetic treatments are right for you.
