Body Contouring Overview
Body contouring is a cosmetic procedure designed to reshape and refine your body by removing excess skin and fat. It’s often an option for those who’ve experienced significant weight loss, pregnancy, or the natural effects of aging. This surgery addresses loose skin and uneven contours, offering a more sculpted and balanced look.
Popular procedures include liposuction, tummy tucks (abdominoplasty), body lifts, and buttock enhancements, typically focusing on areas like the abdomen, thighs, arms, and buttocks. Beyond aesthetic improvements, body contouring can help individuals feel more confident and comfortable in their skin, achieving a toned and proportionate physique.
How Body Contouring Works
Body contouring enhances your shape by addressing areas of excess fat, loose skin, or less-than-toned underlying tissues. But how does it work?
At MSpa, we offer surgical and non-surgical body contouring options tailored to meet the unique needs of men and women. Our skilled team, led by the board-certified Dr. Marriotti, uses cutting-edge techniques designed to safely and effectively target problem areas. Whether it’s removing stubborn fat, tightening loose skin, or reshaping specific body areas, the goal is to help you achieve a more sculpted, toned appearance.
Non-surgical methods often involve advanced technologies like lasers, ultrasound, or freezing techniques to break down fat cells or stimulate collagen production. These treatments are typically less invasive, require little to no downtime, and are suitable for gradual but noticeable improvements.
On the other hand, surgical body contouring approaches like liposuction or tummy tucks can provide more dramatic and immediate results for those seeking significant changes. These procedures involve removing excess fat and skin while contouring the targeted area for a smoother, more defined look.
Ultimately, the best approach depends on your goals, body type, and preferences. Want to know more? Schedule a consultation with MSpa today, and we’ll help you discover the right solution to achieve your desired look.
Benefits of Body Contouring
Body contouring offers much more than enhancing your physical appearance—it provides lasting benefits that improve comfort and confidence. Achieving your desired body shape can significantly boost self-esteem, while reducing discomfort caused by excess skin, such as chafing and irritation.
Additionally, body contouring improves how clothing fits, making it easier to express your style. This procedure targets multiple areas in one session, removing excess skin and addressing stubborn fat, delivering long-lasting, noticeable results. The advanced techniques are safe and effective, making this investment worthwhile for those wanting to feel confident in their skin.
Key Benefits of Body Contouring:
- More defined and sculpted body contours
- A youthful, slimmer appearance
- Improved skin smoothness
- Symptomatic relief from discomfort caused by excess skin
- Immediate and visible results post-surgery
Body contouring enables individuals to enjoy a body that aligns with their goals while significantly enhancing comfort and quality of life.
Can Body Contouring be paired with other Treatments?
Many body contouring surgeries can be combined to enhance results and streamline recovery. Here are some common pairings:
- Tummy Tuck + Liposuction: Ideal for refining the abdominal area.
- Breast Augmentation + Breast Lift: Improves volume and lift simultaneously.
- Arm Lift + Liposuction: Combines arm sculpting with fat removal.
- Body Lift + Liposuction: Targets multiple areas for a more comprehensive transformation.
- “Mommy Makeover”: Typically includes breast surgery, a tummy tuck, and liposuction.
- Patients can reduce downtime and achieve more cohesive results by addressing multiple areas in one procedure.

Before, During, and After
What To Expect Before Body Contouring
Before your body contouring procedure in Concord, you’ll meet with Dr. Mariotti for a personalized consultation. During this session, you’ll discuss your aesthetic goals, and Dr. Mariotti will conduct a physical evaluation to recommend the most suitable procedures for you. He’ll explain the potential results of each option, ensuring you have a clear understanding. Together, you’ll determine the best approach to help you achieve your desired look.
What To Expect During Body Contouring
When you undergo body contouring, you’ll be in the capable hands of Dr. Mariotti, a board-certified surgeon known for his expertise and patient-focused care.
Here’s a step-by-step look at what happens during the procedure:
- Preparation with Anesthesia: To ensure you’re completely comfortable during the surgery, anesthesia will be administered at the start.
- Surgical Plan Implementation: Dr. Mariotti will follow the customized plan tailored to your body and goals. Small, precise incisions may be made to access underlying tissues, allowing for the removal of excess fat and skin.
- Advanced Techniques: Dr. Mariotti focuses on achieving precision while minimizing scarring for optimal results using the latest surgical methods.
Once the procedure is complete, you’ll be moved to a recovery area, where the team will monitor you as you wake from anesthesia and ensure you feel comfortable.
Rest assured, every step is designed for your safety and satisfaction.
What To Expect After Body Contouring
After your body contouring procedure, bandages or specialized dressings are placed over your incisions to protect the area and aid healing. For certain surgeries, like liposuction, a tummy tuck, breast augmentation, a breast lift or reduction, a circumferential body lift, or a thigh lift, you may also be fitted with a compression garment. This garment helps minimize swelling and bruising while supporting the healing process.
In some cases, thin drainage tubes may be placed under your skin to remove excess blood or fluids that can accumulate during recovery.
Dr. Mariotti will provide you with detailed and personalized aftercare instructions. These include how to care for your surgical sites, which medications to use (whether oral or topical), and guidance on scheduling follow-up appointments to track your recovery and progress.
During recovery, you might experience temporary side effects like soreness, swelling, and mild discoloration—these symptoms will improve as your body heals. Most patients can expect to return to work within two weeks or less, depending on their job duties. Resuming your regular exercise routine typically takes about four to six weeks, depending on the complexity of the procedure performed.
With proper care, you can smoothly transition through recovery and enjoy the results of your body contouring procedure.
Frequently Asked Questions
How soon will I see results after a body contouring treatment?
Results from body contouring surgery are often noticeable immediately although the full effects take time. As post-surgical swelling decreases and your body heals—typically over several weeks—you’ll begin to see the final results. Following your surgeon’s aftercare instructions is crucial for a smooth recovery and achieving the best possible outcome.Â

Is there any downtime after a body contouring procedure?
Recovery after body contouring surgery typically requires a few weeks of downtime. Most individuals need at least two weeks off work, depending on the procedure and healing process. Expect discomfort, including pain, bruising, and swelling, which can be managed with prescribed medications and compression garments to support healing and reduce swelling. Gentle walking may be encouraged during the first week, but strenuous activities should be avoided for at least four weeks. Regular follow-up appointments with your surgeon are essential to ensure proper recovery and address concerns.Â

Are the results of body contouring permanent?
Body contouring surgery can deliver long-lasting results, especially when paired with a stable weight and overall fitness. Once fat cells are removed through liposuction, they do not regenerate, making reduction in those areas permanent. While some natural skin changes, like a slight loss of firmness, may occur with age, the improvements achieved through body contouring are typically considered permanent.Â
