The main difference between liposuction and body contouring is that body contouring cannot remove a large volume of fat cells. For patients interested in removing up to three kilos of fat, liposuction is the ideal surgery.   After major weight loss procedures, the remaining skin is sagging and lacks elasticity. Therefore, body contouring removes the remaining hanging skin and gives the body the desired shape and tone.   In sum, liposuction and body contouring can be combined to offer patients optimal results. Liposuction comes first and body contouring follows to make the patient’s body curves look beautiful and attractive.
