Getting the body of your dreams is something that many individuals aspire to achieve no matter the age, race or creed. Feeling comfortable in the skin that you’re in will certainly have anyone oozing with confidence. Unfortunately, the majority of individuals in society today have less-than-perfect physiques. There are many ways to get a body that’s functional while turning heads in the process. Of course, eating healthy and working out are high on the menu, but there are other ways to get a better body in a fraction of the time.
Liposuction
A tried-and-true way of slimming down in a fraction of the time is via liposuction. Incisions are made within your skin in which a surgical tube is used to suck out unwanted fat cells. Liposuction is very popular and has been used for years to reconfigure certain areas of the body such as the stomach, lower back, and upper thighs. Downtime can be up to six weeks and is required since this procedure is considered to be an invasive treatment that can leave bruising and soreness. Since the 1980s, liposuction has been used to produce slimmer, more-tones bodies. When comparing liposuction with other noninvasive treatments, patients can expect higher costs. Many of your favorite celebrities have gone down the lip route on multiple occasions throughout the years.
Body Contouring
Body contouring is another fine treatment that’s used to produce a slimmer physique. Body contouring just so happens to be a non-invasive treatment that’s considered to be more efficient since patients can expect less downtime and lower expenses. This alternative procedure can use either heat or cold to melt the fat away in a since. Unlike its popular counterpart, body contouring takes away the risks of obtaining blood clots as well as other health complications. People who have good skin elasticity and are of ideal body weight are perfect candidates. Individuals who are trying to reduce fat in smaller areas and trouble spots are also ideal candidates. There are many different names and types that will fall underneath this particular category of medical aesthetics.
CoolSculpting is non-invasive and is used to freeze fat cells in which the body naturally removes as waste. Another form of body contouring is Thermage CPT in which pulse technology is used to tighten the skin. VenusFreeze can be used for facial contouring, skin tightening and wrinkle reduction.
In the end, your personal health condition can play a major role in which medical-aesthetic treatment is right for you. If your health is fairly stable across the board, then you’ll definitely have many more options to contend with via invasive or non-invasive surgery.
