In the past the idea of body contouring was considered in simple terms. Get rid of fat, and shrink the area. The latest cosmetic surgery techniques are quite complex. Doctors are now considering the patient’s body shape, desired shape proportions to fat distribution, as well as skin quality before they recommend treatments.
At PRM Cosmetic Surgery, procedures can be tailored to these factors. There are a variety of options from liposuction fat transfer, to techniques designed to improve skin elasticity providing surgeons with a variety of options to treat body contouring instead of relying upon a single method.
Proper proportions are the main ingredient in the best liposuction procedure.
The main focus of patients who undergo liposuction tends to be the removal of fat. The issue of how removal of fat affects your overall appearance is a more relevant one.

In removing fat from the abdomen area, you can alter the way in which your hips and waist relate. Treatment of the flanks could further make that change. It’s crucial to be exact, because aggressive fat removal won’t always yield better results. The objective is generally to achieve a smoother contour that will are compatible with the natural body shape of the patient.
PRM Cosmetic Surgery is a leading provider of advanced techniques, such as tumescent liposuction which is a procedure that is tailored to the areas being addressed and the patient’s aesthetic goals.
Skin Quality is Critical
Fat and skin behave differently. Liposuction may reduce localized deposits of fat, but this does not mean that the skin will contract in the same way.
For that reason, skin tightening can become an important aspect of the conversation. Age, genetics and previous weight changes, along with pregnancy and elasticity, could influence the skin’s response to contouring.
Technology like Renuvion JPlasma can be considered if a treatment plan includes concerns about the elasticity of tissues. Instead of making tightening an afterthought to surgeons, they can consider skin characteristics as an element of the body contouring strategy that is initially planned.
Quantum RF and the conversation
The use of radiofrequency technology in aesthetic medicine has expanded possibilities. Quantum Radiofrequency is another possibility to think about when discussing body contouring and tissue tightening.
Technology, however, is only a part of the treatment. Technology isn’t able to replace anatomical knowledge or surgical judgement, nor can it replace a carefully selected patient. During a consultation, patients should understand the reasons why a certain technology is suggested in the first place, what it’s designed to achieve, and what limitations may apply to their particular case.
A Brazilian Butt Lift Changes More Than the Buttocks
A brazilian butt lift offers a useful example of how modern contouring involves relationships between different parts of the body. The procedure is performed using the body’s own fat which has been removed from certain donor areas. The fat is transferred to the buttocks.
The visual result is achieved by two different changes by contouring the areas in which fat has been eliminated, and then adding volume if necessary. The final appearance of your body could be determined by the waistline stomach, flanks, and abdomen.
A Personalized Plan Matters More than a Trend
It’s not a good option to choose a sexy procedure just because it’s widely used. Two people wanting a smaller waist could have different expectations, fat distributions, skin elasticity and body proportions.
PRM Cosmetic Surgery is focused on individualized care and provides choices for body contouring treatments which are custom-made to the patient’s specific goals. Before deciding on whether surgery is the right choice for you having a thorough consultation will enable the patient to talk about their anatomy procedures options along with recovery expectations, risks and realistic outcomes.
