Silhouette surgery includes every treatment that is planned to improve the body, its volume and its appearance.
Silhouette surgical procedures do not attempt to create an “ideal beauty bombshell,” because ideal bodies do not exist. However, some solutions can be considered to balance the silhouette and the appearance of the body.
In the last few years, silhouette surgery has been revolutionized by the use of lipofilling to reshape the body contours and the improvement in the design of implants, which can be tailor-made after 3D reconstruction by a scan of the zone to be treated. Custom implants are particularly suited to thoracic deformities such as pectus excavatum (funnel chest).
Different kinds of surgeries can be considered:
- For the stomach area: liposuction or abdominoplasty.
- For the arms: liposuction or arm lift.
- For the thighs: liposuction or thigh lift.
- For the calves: calf implants.
- For the buttocks: lipofilling or implants.
- For other areas: liposuction, lipofilling or custom implants.
