There are plenty of surgical and nonsurgical options for men and women who are interested in body contouring, but how do you know which one is right for you?
Here are some of the top body contouring procedures and what they can do for you.
Tummy Tucks
Loose skin and fat around the abdomen can linger despite living actively and eating right. This is particularly common in women who have had children, due to muscular stretching, or those who have lost a lot of weight recently.
Tummy tucks retighten loose abdominal muscles and remove excess fat in the abdomen. They can even improve the appearance of stretch marks and minimize scars left from a C-section. Dr. Campanile customizes each tummy tuck to the individual patient’s needs.
Liposuction
Long the standard of body contouring, liposuction at our Denver office is just as essential as ever. This procedure can remove unsightly fat deposits from nearly anywhere in the body: abdomen, thighs, hips, upper arms and even your neck and chin area. In fact, liposuction is often combined with a tummy tuck for additional abdominal contouring.
Although lipo should never be used as a substitute for diet or exercise, it can complement living a healthier lifestyle. Many times, even after our target weight is reached, our body still holds onto pockets of fat in the midsection, hips and elsewhere. If this sounds all too familiar, you may be a great candidate for lipo.
Nonsurgical Body Contouring
When you don’t have enough time for surgical procedures or you are looking to address only small pockets of fat, then there are nonsurgical body contouring options to help you achieve your goals without the commitment of downtime.
Velashape III is a powerful noninvasive treatment that address the unwanted fat in the love handles, abdomen and thighs. Both take about an hour to complete a session and require zero downtime.
Deciding on Body Contouring
The type of treatment that works best for you will depend on your current needs and cosmetic goals. Fortunately, there are variety of options to choose from that can be customized to meet your unique needs.
