The Shape of Things to Come: Advances in Body Contouring

In today’s social media era, patients are extremely focused on gaining a shapely silhouette, with many frustrated over bulges and sagging skin that may not respond well to diet and exercise.

A survey by Psychology Today magazine found that the majority of women and nearly half of men were dissatisfied with their overall appearance, and two-thirds of women and more than half of men were unhappy with their body weight. 1

The market value of body contouring procedures worldwide is forecast to grow at a 6.8 percent compound annual rate from 2019 to 2024 to reach $9.1 billion, according to Research and Markets. This growth is driven in part by treatment advances and device innovation.
