What is body contouring?
Body contouring is the procedure to eliminate the excess sagged skin and fat tissues as a result of which, the overall shape of the underlying epithelium is improved. This contributes to depicting a proportionately aligned appearance with an even tone.
Body contouring involves arm lift, facelift, abdomen and lower body lift or tummy tuck as its major constituents.
Who can have the procedure?
Usually, body contouring is preferred by adults with a stabilized weight loss regime and women with post-pregnancy stretch marks.
Healthy people excluding any medical condition like hypertension, clotting, and any previous surgical casualties are the most compatible ones to prefer the procedure.
In addition to this, people devoid of any history of using carcinogens and who are determined to maintain a healthy lifestyle are the best candidates.
What are the steps involved in the process?
The procedure includes a “generalized” format which involves the following
- Sedatives like local anaesthesia are administered 2-3 hours before the initiation of the procedure.
- Certain incisions are made along the epithelial line after which the excess skin and fat are eliminated, followed by liposuction.
- For a body lift, excess of skin and fat accumulated is removed from the abdominal part of the body.
- In an arm lift, an incision is made along the anterior of the upper part of the arm and subsequently, additional skin and fat are eliminated.
- In a thigh lift, the structure of the thighs is realigned by removing excess of skin and fat to give an evenly toned appearance.
- Sterilization and dressing procedures are followed, along with the administration of relevant drugs for the best results.
How long does the process take and what are the side effects and risks involved?
The duration of the procedure varies according to the type and extent of the surgery, which is generally different for patients. Usually, it takes anywhere from an hour to five for the procedure to complete. In some cases, the procedure is carried out in a step-by-step process.
The procedure is usually credited to be “risk-free” in nature but infections and blood clots are some of the minor potential risk factors associated, but these very much occur in rarity.
If there are any symptoms related to infection, the patient has to visit the expert. The infection is usually a minor one and gets treated by using relevant antibiotics. Other than this, the patient doesn’t need to follow up with the doctor.
The procedure is generally pain-free, both during and following the procedure. If pain occurs, it is from mild to moderate and gets away with natural healing, providing a healthy post-surgical lifestyle is maintained. The after-effects of the process are usually nil and are very well tolerated.

On a generalized note, the recovery period ranges anywhere between 3 to 5 months, although one is free to continue day-to-day work after the post-surgical incubation period gets over.
Recovery is usually “complication” free and is reported to be very smooth if accompanied by a healthy lifestyle and proper use of instructed medicines and topicals.
