Body sculpting is a non-surgical procedure designed to eliminate fat by freezing it, allowing for easier removal in subsequent sessions. As the fat is gradually eliminated, the body achieves a more contoured appearance.

Liposuction, on the other hand, is a surgical procedure that removes fat from specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen and thighs, to enhance body shape and definition.

Methods of body Sculpting

Body sculpting is a non-surgical approach to fat removal that helps reshape and contour the body. Several techniques are used, including:

Laser Body Sculpting: A laser device is directed at the targeted area, breaking down and liquefying fat through thermal energy. The body then gradually eliminates the fat over time.
VASER Body Sculpting: This method utilizes ultrasound waves to break down fat cells, making them easier to remove. It is considered safer than laser treatment, as it reduces the risk of skin burns.
Cold Body Sculpting (Cryolipolysis): The targeted area is exposed to extremely low temperatures (-11°C), causing fat cells to crystallize and break down. The body naturally disposes of the fat over multiple sessions, with full results visible after about six months.

Body Sculpting Steps

Body sculpting is performed in three main stages:

Total Time: 2 hours

First Step

The patient first meets with the surgeon to discuss their goals and expectations. During this consultation, the doctor determines the number of sessions needed to achieve the desired results.

Second Step

Next, the doctor marks the targeted areas for sculpting.

Final Step

A laser or VASER device is then applied to the selected areas, breaking down and liquefying the fat. Over time, the body naturally eliminates the liquefied fat.

Estimated Cost: 2450 Euro

Liposuction Procedure Steps

This is one of the surgical procedures that is performed to get rid of fat, following these steps:

The patient is placed under general anesthesia to ensure a painless experience.
The doctor makes a small incision in the targeted area.
A cannula (a thin tube used for fluid exchange) is inserted into the incision.
A surgical aspirator is then connected to the cannula, which is moved in and out to break down and suction out the fat.
The procedure typically takes one to two hours, depending on the amount of fat being removed.
Once the fat removal is complete, the doctor sutures the incision.
