Body Contouring Procedures on the Rise

With the recent increase in massive weight loss surgeries performed in the United States, the number of participants undergoing body contouring surgery has risen, too. When a person rapidly loses weight over a relatively short period of time, excess skin can accumulate and be psychologically distressing, as well as uncomfortable. Body contouring removes excess skin and reshapes the body, resulting in a pleasing appearance and improved comfort levels.

Why Is Body Contouring Weight Loss Surgery Becoming So Popular?

According to a recent survey conducted by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, there has been a significant increase in massive weight loss surgeries. This has resulted in a correlation between patients that have experienced rapid weight loss and those that have undergone body contouring surgery. In 2014, a total of 45,000 people that had massive weight loss also opted for body contouring procedures. This is the biggest single-year increase in almost five years, which indicates just how popular these surgeries are becoming.

What Is the Importance of Body Contouring?

As stated earlier, excess skin is often the result of rapid weight loss. This can be bothersome, both physiologically and psychologically. From an emotional perspective, seeing excess skin on a regular basis when looking the mirror can be upsetting, since it could make a person look bigger than they actually are. Excess skin can also be uncomfortable or even painful in certain cases, making everyday activities bothersome. Body contouring helps patients return to a more healthy way of life quickly.

What Areas Can Body Contouring Treat?

Body contouring can target various parts of the body, but weight loss surgeries associated with excess skin typically treat the upper thighs, arms, stomach, and breasts. These locations tend to be the most common areas in which excess skin develops after massive weight loss, but there are other parts of the body that can be shaped with body contouring, as well.
