What is Body Contouring?

Body contouring is one of the most in-demand aesthetic services, designed to shape specific areas of the body after weight loss or pregnancy. It can be surgical or non-surgical, typically including procedures that reduce unsightly, stubborn fat bulges and tighten the skin. However, it is not a substitute for weight loss treatment.

Our Focus: Advanced Non-Surgical Body Contouring

1. Exilis Elite

The Procedure Details - Exilis Elite is a breakthrough fat-melting and skin-tightening technique that delivers controlled radiofrequency energy into the deeper tissue layers of the targeted area.

The radiofrequency energy converts to thermal energy, which destroys the adipocytes (fat cells) and slims the targeted area while boosting collagen production, thereby firming and tightening the skin. Its result can last for 2 years or above.

Benefits

• FDA-cleared for target elimination of stubborn fat pockets and improvement of skin laxity in the abdomen, thighs, back, and arms
• Non-surgical procedure- no downtime and minimal discomfort
• May improve the appearance of stretch marks and reduce cellulite
• Stimulates collagen production for long-lasting skin rejuvenation
• Long-lasting, natural-looking skin and body shape enhancement.

2. HIFU

The Procedure Details - HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound), as the name suggests, utilises ultrasound energy to break down fat and tighten skin. It heats the targeted area precisely to a level that causes the extra fat cells to rupture, allowing the body to naturally eliminate their debris.

The heat even causes controlled injury to the skin of the targeted area, stimulating natural skin repair, a collagen boost that further improves skin texture. It also aids body skin tightening and delivers amazing results.

Desired outcomes may take several weeks or months until all the fat cell debris is eliminated from the body and the collagen level in the skin is restored.

Benefits

• Customisable for target elimination of stubborn fat pockets and improvement of skin laxity and texture in the abdomen, flanks, outer and inner thighs, bra bulge, and upper arms
• Natural-looking outcomes that gradually develop and last long, if a healthy lifestyle is properly maintained
• Non-invasive procedure- minimal downtime, minimal side effects, and least discomfort
• Effective and safe for multiple body areas
• Can smoothen cellulite dimples.

Artiqa Technology

Artiqa is a non-invasive body contouring technology that uses a combination of Thermal Shock and Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) to target fat cells and tone muscles. It is designed to reduce fat, tighten skin, and improve muscle tone, offering a non-surgical alternative to procedures like liposuction.

Benefits:

• The treatment can target localized fat deposits in areas such as thighs, arms, abdomen, and love handles.
• It can effectively sculpt and contour the body and also help in facial rejuvenation and cellulite reduction.
• It is a non-invasive procedure.
• Because it does not involve any kind of invasion in the body, the patient can return to regular work life right after the treatment.

FAQs on Body Contouring

Is body contouring the same as body shaping or body sculpting?

No, there is a slight difference. Body contouring is an umbrella term for all surgical and non-surgical body toning, fat removal techniques. It comprises body sculpting that focuses on refining and reshaping body contours, often using techniques such as CoolSculpting or Laser-Assisted Lipolysis.

Body shaping encompasses fat reduction, muscle toning, and anti-ageing procedures to maintain youthful-looking skin.

Is body contouring permanent?

Body contouring procedures in Gurgaon can help eliminate stubborn fat cells and provide long-lasting, natural-looking results only when done in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise regimen. As long as one’s weight remains stable, the results are permanent.

How many sessions are required for optimal results?

The method chosen for body contouring determines the outcome. Exilis Elite and EmSculpt body contouring typically require 4-6 sessions, whereas HIFU and CoolSculpt body contouring typically require 1-3 sessions.

How is non-surgical body contouring better than surgical body contouring?

Non-surgical body contouring in Gurgaon is minimally invasive, precise, and has reduced risks and downtime, resulting in natural-looking outcomes. Additionally, it is affordable and readily available.

Can body contouring be combined with other cosmetic procedures?

Yes. Most patients consider body contouring with anti-ageing treatments, such as fillers, anti-wrinkle injections, and the Vampire facial, to achieve more appealing, youthful-looking skin.
