- Differentiates between non invasive, minimal invasive and surgical body contouring procedures
- Clarifies a complex landscape of procedures by overviewing pearls and pitfalls and treatment decisions
- Outlines algorithms for approaching patients at times of COVID
This book describes the plethora of all procedures in Body Contouring.
It descibes their advantages and disadvantages and provides an overview of possible complications and how to avoid and deal with them when they occur. The work explains when and why to choose one procedure instead of another or combine the treatment of different adjacent areas in one and/or different techniques to achieve more favourable results in contouring these areas. New combinations are presented on how to combine different non-invasive or minimally invasive and surgical body contouring procedures in just one surgical procedure for the benefit of the patient.
The author presents an algorithm for online - interviewing patients in times of COVID to help assess which type of procedure can lead to the fewest side effects and best possible results, and which type of treatment to choose depending on BMI and extent of weight loss.
These chapters will likely find an audience among plastic and bariatric surgeons.
