You did the hard part and lost the excess weight, but now your skin is loose and saggy, or maybe you’re dealing with a stubborn bit of fat that just won’t budge. If this sounds like you, you’re not alone. In fact, this is a very common occurrence. Fortunately, there are several body contouring options that require NO surgery. Here’s what you need to know about body contouring after weight loss.

You Lost the Weight—So Why Doesn’t Your Skin Snap Back?

While weight loss is amazing for your health, both physical and mental, it often leaves behind loose skin. This can interfere with daily activities, in addition to impacting your self-esteem. Skin laxity can occur for many reasons, and weight loss is one of them. Fortunately, there are ways to improve this loose skin.

What Is Post-Weight Loss Body Contouring?

Body contouring after weight loss refers to the procedures that fine tune your new body shape by removing excess skin or that last bit of stubborn fat. Loose skin can cause discomfort, rashes, hygiene problems, and poor self-esteem.

The Most Popular Treatments for Post-Weight Loss Body Contouring

There are a variety of nonsurgical body contouring options. These include popular options for fat reduction, skin tightening, and cellulite treatment. Let’s take a look.

Stubborn fat won’t let go?

CoolSculpting Elite uses cryolipolysis to reduce fat cells. With many device applicators, it’s versatile enough to treat even hard to reach areas like under the chin.

Looking to tone up?

Emsculpt NEO burns fat, builds muscle and tones your body in quick 30-minute session. It’s painless, safe, and requires no downtime. You can build, tone and firm muscles in the abdomen, legs, arms, and even butt!

Pesky cellulite?

Losing weight doesn’t necessarily mean cellulite disappears. But we have many options to help reduce the appearance of cellulite and give you smooth, flawless skin. Popular options include Morpheus8 and Emtone
