Objectives: Identify effective minimally-invasive treatment options for contouring the submental and abdominal regions.
Participants will learn various strategies and emerging technologies to treat excess adiposity, reduce skin laxity, tighten tissues, and enhance muscle tone.
Introduction: The demand for minimally invasive body contouring treatments is on the rise among the male population.
Materials / method: Emerging technologies to treat excess adiposity, reduce skin laxity, tighten tissues, and enhance muscle tone are reviewed. Strategies for treating the submental and abdominal areas are emphasized.
Results: There are many treatment options for treating submental fullness, tightening laxity of the neck, and augmenting the chin/jawline region to enhance masculine traits.
Similarly, many new technologies have emerged to reduce abdominal adiposity, tighten the skin, and improve muscle tone which are primary concerns for men seeking body contouring treatments.
Conclusion: Various minimally-invasive energy-based devices have emerged to contour the submental region and abdomen with little to no downtime. We are seeing an increasing demand among male patients for these treatments, and are learning more how these devices can be effectively combined to highlight masculine traits.
