Who is a candidate for body sculpting? Anyone, male or female, who is in good health and is displeased with his/her present shape. Most of our body contour patients have struggled for years to improve their figures by dieting and exercise, but have found that most figure faults can only be partially corrected with these measures. We can now offer improvement for almost any figure fault either by suction lipectomy or excision of excess skin and fat (dermolipectomy).
