Or LipoSculpting is a procedure where the surgeon as an artist sculpts the body to give it the proper curves and highlights. It is a combination of liposuction and lipofilling (fat grafting).
This is a procedure where an eye for detail and the artistic capabilities of the surgeon come into play. The procedure involves a lot of planning and thought apart from the execution. It involves sucking out fat from certain areas and filling up certain areas to give the body the proper curves.
This can be done in the case of the face or body to achieve pleasing results. In the face the fat is sucked from the cheeks and under the chin and transferred to areas under the eye and in the area of the cheek bones and the forehead to give it a more youthful look.
In the body it usually involves suction around the abdomen and the hips with filling of the pelvic highlights and the buttocks. Fat from the saddle bags might be removed and added to the upper part of the buttocks. The lower back maybe sucked and then the fat grafted into the buttocks to give better curves in the proper areas. Body etching is another form of lipocontouring. But to achieve the desired results it must be emphasized that it might not be possible in a single procedure, if there is a lot of fat. Etching is done when there is minimal amount of fat. It doesn't work well if there is too much fat in the area in which case it has to be done in a second sitting. Problems: Are the same as in Liposuction or Fat grafting. The main issue is to visualise the desired result and aim towards that. Many a times repeat procedures may be required as in fat grafting to reach the desired goal.
