Each year, there are almost 300,000 liposuction procedures in the United States. Liposuction can help people get rid of excess fat, but many people do not realize that they can combine it with body contouring treatments to achieve maximum results.
Learn more about body contouring and liposuction procedures and how they can work together to offer the desired results.
What Is Body Contouring?
Body contouring refers to cosmetic services that can help reshape certain areas of your body. These procedures can help you:
- Get rid of excess skin
- Get rid of excess fat
- Contour a specific area
There are a variety of body contouring options, including surgical ones like tummy tucks, breast lifts, and even breast augmentations. There are also non-surgical options, including those that freeze fat cells and those that use energy to destroy them. In the latter category, Vanquish METM is an excellent option.
Vanquish ME uses radiofrequency energy to deliver enough heat to destroy fat cells. Your body can then eliminate these cells through your lymphatic system. One of the benefits of Vanquish ME is that it does not require the use of an applicator, like other body contouring options.
What Is Liposuction?
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat from the targeted areas. Suctioning technology makes this possible.
The most common treatment areas for liposuction are:
- Abdomen
- Upper arms
- Thighs
- Buttocks
- Calves
- Ankles
- Hips
- Chin
- Chest
- Back
In areas of the body where dieting and exercise have not been able to remove fat, liposuction can be a great option. Although it is not a weight loss solution, the fat reduction in the treatment area is permanent unless you gain a substantial amount of weight.
How Body Contouring and Liposuction Work Together
One of the results of liposuction can be sagging skin. By combining liposuction with a body contouring procedure like a tummy tuck or breast lift, you can ensure you do not have excess skin affecting the way you look. Even non-surgical options can help with tightening skin.
Many people choose to have liposuction together with breast augmentation, breast lift, or tummy tuck in one surgical session. This is called a mommy makeover. It helps women who have been through childbirth to regain their pre-pregnancy body.
By combining these treatments, you do not have to worry about going through many separate surgeries.

When you choose liposuction and body contouring procedures, you are giving yourself a chance to look as toned as you want. You can save yourself the stress of going through multiple procedures and ensure you do not have sagging skin to worry about.
