Body contouring in Dubai is a cosmetic procedure that refines and reshapes the body by eliminating extra fat and tightening the skin, resulting in a more balanced and confident appearance. Altaderma Clinic focuses on safe, individualized care that allows you to obtain natural-looking body contouring results without feeling artificial or overdone.
What is body contouring?
Body contouring is a series of cosmetic procedures that aim to alter and enhance your body’s natural curves. Depending on your goals, body contouring may include both surgical and non-surgical procedures. The goal of body contouring is not just to remove fat but also to improve body shape, tighten sagging skin, and increase muscle definition.
Commonly treated locations of body contouring include the abdomen, thighs, arms, buttocks, back, and chin. It’s perfect for people who are near their optimum weight but want to focus on the remaining few problem areas that diet and exercise alone cannot address.
Who can benefit from body contouring?
You could be an excellent candidate for body contouring if:
- You have lost weight and want to tighten loose skin
- Struggle with persistent fat pockets
- Maintain a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle
- Or want to refine your silhouette instead of losing enormous amounts of fat
Body contouring procedures
Various body contouring procedures includes:
1. Non-surgical body contouring treatments
These include technologies such as radiofrequency, ultrasound, and laser fat reduction. They are painless, have no downtime, and gradually reshape the affected areas.
2. Liposuction-based body contouring techniques
For those looking for more enhanced results, surgical contouring can remove larger amounts of fat.
3. Skin-tightening body contouring procedures
These work to restore elasticity and firmness, making them ideal for use after weight reduction or pregnancy.
Your doctor will create a body contouring treatment plan that incorporates one or more of these procedures to provide smooth and natural results.
Body contouring experience: what to expect?
Most non-surgical body contouring sessions last 30 to 90 minutes. You may experience moderate warmth or tingling, but the discomfort is negligible. Surgical body contouring alternatives may necessitate anaesthesia and a few days of rest afterwards. Following body contouring treatment, the area may appear somewhat red or swollen, but the discomfort usually resolves within a few days. Body contouring benefits appear in weeks as your body naturally eliminates the treated fat cells.
Aftercare and recovery
At Altaderma Clinic, maintaining your body contouring results starts with simple, healthy habits. Stay well hydrated, eat a balanced diet, and keep physically active. Avoid intense exercise for a few days after your treatment and protect your skin from direct sunlight. Regular follow-up appointments at Altaderma Clinic help monitor your progress and ensure your results remain long-lasting.
Duration of results
With proper care, non-surgical body contouring results at Altaderma Clinic can last up to two years or longer. Surgical contouring procedures tend to offer more permanent outcomes, but keeping a stable weight is essential to preserve your newly sculpted shape.
Minimising risks
Some patients may experience temporary redness, mild swelling, or slight discomfort after treatment, which usually resolves quickly. The experienced specialists at Altaderma Clinic follow strict safety standards and provide detailed aftercare instructions to help minimise any risks. Sharing your medical history and treatment goals with your doctor ensures the safest and most effective experience.
Treatment plan
Most patients at Altaderma Clinic require between three and six sessions, depending on the area being treated and the technique used. Each plan is customised to deliver smooth, natural-looking, and lasting results.
