What is Body Contouring?

Body contouring includes a range of cosmetic techniques used to sculpt and otherwise enhance the figure. At Bednar Cosmetic Surgery, we’re proud to offer a number of non-surgical body contouring services. These treatments are ideal for patients who may be struggling with small amounts of stubborn fat, cellulite or sagging skin. Our body contouring treatments can address these concerns without surgery, which means no scarring and no lengthy recovery periods. They can help patients enhance many areas of the figure, including the legs, buttocks, hips, abdomen, arms and more.

What are the Benefits of Body Contouring?

Body contouring treatments offer a great alternative to surgery for patients who want to enhance the figure without the costs, scarring and downtime associated with surgical procedures. Body contouring offers the following benefits: 

• Reduces stubborn fat
• Lifts and tightens the skin
• Improves cellulite
• Diminishes scars and stretch marks

How Much Does Body Contouring Cost in Charlotte, NC?

The cost of body contouring treatments can vary depending on the type of treatment performed and the extent of treatment needed to satisfy a patient’s cosmetic goals. At Bednar Cosmetic Surgery, we encourage patients to come in for a cosmetic consultation so that we can discuss their goals and develop a personalized treatment plan. Then, we are able to provide the exact costs associated with body contouring. Be sure to check our specials as we may be offering limited-time deals for this or other treatments.

What is the Body Contouring Treatment Like?

At Bednar Cosmetic Surgery, your body contouring treatment will depend on which technique we recommend. We offer the following body contouring treatments:

• Morpheus8® by InMode
  • Morpheus8® combines radiofrequency and microneedling technology to trigger deep tissue remodeling. In addition to liquefying fat, this process stimulates collagen production to rejuvenate and tighten the skin.
• MINT™ PDO
  • MINT™ PDO is a dissolvable thread lift treatment that can be used to lift and tighten the skin. After treatment, the body absorbs the threads in a process that stimulates collagen production for long-lasting skin rejuvenation benefits.

Does Body Contouring Have Side Effects?

The minimally-invasive body contouring treatments offered at Bednar Cosmetic Surgery require little to no downtime. Side effects will vary depending on the treatment performed, but most patients experience no more than minor bruising, swelling and discomfort in the days following treatment.

What Do Body Contouring Results Look Like?

The results from body contouring will vary depending on the treatment performed. With MINT™ PDO, results will be visible immediately, as the thread lift technique instantly lifts and tightens the skin during treatment. Conversely, Morpheus8® will take several weeks to produce results as it takes the body time to respond to treatment and reveal noticeable results. Additionally, we may recommend multiple treatment sessions for patients receiving the Morpheus8® treatment. During your consultation, we’ll let you know exactly what to expect before and after your body contouring treatment.
