Shoulder Aesthetics

Create a request

Shoulder Aesthetics is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the appearance and shape of the shoulders. This can involve liposuction, fat grafting, or implants to create a more defined and attractive shoulder contour. The goal is to achieve a proportionate and aesthetically pleasing shoulder line that complements the individual's body.

Shoulder Aesthetics

General

Shoulder Aesthetics procedures cater to individuals looking to alter the size, shape, or overall appearance of their shoulders. This could be due to a variety of reasons such as disproportion compared to the rest of the body, lack of definition, or the desire to correct asymmetries. Techniques involve liposuction to remove excess fat, fat grafting for adding volume for a more rounded appearance, or the use of implants to provide definition and structure. The choice of technique depends on the individual's body type, desired outcome, and underlying bone and muscle structure. These procedures are usually performed under general anesthesia and can take anywhere from one to several hours depending on the complexity and whether additional procedures are being performed concurrently.
