Body contouring is on the rise, but what is it and why should you add it to your to-do list?

Here’s everything you need to know about the best body contouring in Maryland, from which non-surgical treatments are top tier to where you can get them done!

What Is Body Contouring?

Body contouring, or body sculpting, refers to a variety of procedures primarily performed to reduce stubborn pockets of fat, though they can also be done to redistribute fat to more flattering areas, tighten skin, and even tone muscles.

Body contouring is done using several different techniques, depending on your unique needs. The purpose of it is exactly what the name suggests: to contour your body and enhance your physique, helping you to achieve your body goals.

Who Should Receive Body Contouring?

Body contouring isn’t for everyone. To get the best results, there are a few boxes you need to tick before you can be considered a candidate.

• Firstly, you have to understand it’s not for weight loss. Most sculpting procedures can’t help you lose weight, nor are they an alternative to diet and exercise. These options are meant for patients who are near or already at their ideal weight. Body contouring procedures require your BMI to be 30 or under, although there are exceptions to these rules.
• Secondly, patients should be healthy adults who are committed to living a generally healthy lifestyle. This means eating healthy, staying hydrated, and exercising. This is especially important if you wish to maintain your results.
• Finally, some medical conditions may make certain procedures unsafe for you. This is dependent on the type of procedure and what the medical condition is, so it’s best to consult with your body contouring specialist beforehand.

Are Non-Surgical Treatments Safer?

As a general rule, non-surgical body contouring treatments tend to be safer than surgical or invasive treatments, such as liposuction. This is because they’re so minimally invasive, or even non-invasive, so they have an overall lower risk for infection, injury, anesthesia risks, or other complications.

This doesn’t mean that liposuction is unsafe, of course. Liposuction is an excellent, generally safe procedure for removing fat, especially large amounts of it. It can also be combined with other non-invasive techniques, like BodyTite.

If safety is a concern for you or if surgery is not an option, then completely non-invasive and non-surgical body sculpting treatments may be better for you.

What Are the Best Non-Surgical Body Contouring Treatments?

There are many types of non-surgical body sculpting treatments, and all of them work differently. Which one is best for you ultimately depends on your goals, current body type, and what your provider recommends. Here are just a few of the top options.

• Body Sculpt

Body Sculpt is not only a fat reduction treatment, but it offers muscle building and toning too. This is done by combining BodyTite, a radiofrequency energy based treatment, with high-intensity focused electromagnetic technology (HIFEM).

Radiofrequency waves provided by BodyTite tighten skin and burn fat, while HIFEM induces intense muscle contractions (up to 20,000 in a single 30-minute session) to further burn fat and build muscle. It’s completely non-surgical and non-invasive, and it yields powerful results.

It costs anywhere from $1,400 to $4,650 for a series of treatments, depending on your unique goals, as well as the number of sessions needed to see optimal results. While improvement can be seen with just one treatment, four to eight produces the most significant results.

• BodyTite

BodyTite is an innovative treatment that harnesses the technology of radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) to tighten skin and eliminate fat, offering the best of both worlds in one procedure. It can be performed on the abdomen, arms, thighs, flanks, breasts, back, and knees.

It costs anywhere from $750 to $14,000 with an average of $6,625, depending on the size of the treatment area and the number of BodyTite sessions you need.

• Cavi-Lipo

Ultrasonic cavitation liposuction, or Cavi-Lipo, is a non-invasive fat reduction, skin tightening, and cellulite reduction treatment. It uses ultrasound waves to eliminate fat cells, particularly in the upper arms, stomach, thighs, love handles, or beneath the chin.

Anywhere from three to 12 sessions are required to see results. Treatments cost anywhere from $100 to $2,000, holding an average of $525.

• FaceTite

FaceTite, while not a body contouring treatment, works similarly to BodyTite to contour, tighten, and firm your skin. It can be used to address skin laxity and reduce fat in the cheeks, neck, jowls, and underneath the chin.

Price depends on the number of areas you have treated as well as the number of sessions. The average is $5,125 with a range of $575 to $14,000.

• Kybella

Kybella is yet another treatment that focuses more on facial contouring than body contouring, but uses for the body are being studied. It is a minimally invasive injectable treatment that uses a synthetic version of deoxycholic acid to dissolve fat, particularly in the submental (chin) area.

Three to six treatments are recommended for best results. Kybella injections typically cost $1,375, but they can go anywhere from $300 to $2,800.
