What is Body Contouring?
Body shaping is a non-invasive (non-surgical) aesthetic procedure used to reduce unwanted fat tissue, eliminate cellulite and improve body contours. These procedures aim to improve body shape without requiring surgical intervention.
Modern body shaping technologies use different methods such as ultrasonic waves, radiofrequency, laser and cold application. These methods target fat cells and improve body shape.
Body Shaping Methods
The main methods used for body shaping:
1. Ultrasonic Liposuction (Ultrasonic Fat Removal)
It breaks down fat cells using ultrasonic waves:
- Ultrasonic waves target fat cells
- Breaks down and liquefies fat cells
- The body naturally eliminates fat
- Cleansed by the lymphatic system
2. Radiofrequency (RF) Treatment
Skin tightening and fat burning with radiofrequency energy:
- RF energy heats subcutaneous tissues
- Increases collagen production
- Breaks down fat cells
- Provides skin tightening
3. Cryolipolysis (Fat Freezing)
Freezing fat cells with cold application:
- Freezes fat cells
- Causes cell death
- The body sheds dead cells
- Provides natural fat reduction
4. Laser Lipolysis
Breaking down fat cells with laser energy:
- Laser energy targets fat cells
- Breaks down fat cells
- Increases collagen production
- Provides skin tightening
Cellulite Treatment Methods
Cellulite is a common problem that affects 80-90% of women. With modern treatment methods, cellulite can be effectively reduced:
1. Ultrasonic Cellulite Treatment
Cellulite reduction with ultrasonic waves targets cellulite tissue, breaks down fat cells, increases lymphatic drainage and smooths the skin surface.
2. Radiofrequency Cellulite Treatment
RF energy heats subcutaneous tissues, increases collagen production, improves blood circulation and reduces the appearance of cellulite.
3. Mesotherapy
Cellulite treatment with vitamin and mineral injections accelerates fat metabolism, increases lymphatic drainage and improves the appearance of cellulite.
