Non-surgical contouring targets localised fat and skin laxity in specific areas — it's not weight loss. Treatment is most effective for patients near their stable weight who want refinement in a defined area.
Body contouring devices (focused-ultrasound, RF microneedling) target localised fat deposits and skin laxity. They're not designed for — and not effective as — weight loss treatments.
Patients with substantial weight to lose typically benefit more from a structured medical weight management programme first — addressing weight, body composition, and metabolic health — before considering localised contouring.
Your consultation will identify whether contouring, medical weight management, or a combined approach makes most sense for your individual goals.
Body contouring and medical weight management require different patient profiles. Your consultation will identify which approach makes sense for you.
