Body contouring is the umbrella term given to all procedures and treatments related to the reduction of inches from the circumference of the midsection, arms, buttocks, thighs, or legs. These procedures generally involve a focus on fat removal, either through injection or the combination of a light or radio frequency energy with a deep tissue massage. Also known as body shaping or body sculpting, popular treatment options include VelaShape and VelaSmooth, Mesotherapy, LipoDissolve, and Endermologie. Many forms of plastic surgery could also be designated as body contouring procedures, including liposuction, arm lifts, tummy tucks, butt lifts and thighplasty surgery.
