AB  - Mankind  has  long  been  obsessed  with  achieving  the  so-called  “perfect  body”;  in  differing  times  and  different  circumstances,  the  ideal  body  has  evolved.  Currently,  in  our  image-obsessed  culture,  many  people  possess  a  strong  desire  to  lose  weight  to  achieve  their  perfect  body.  Unfortunately,  obesity  is  an  epidemic  in  our  culture  and  weight  loss  is  a  challenging  goal  for  many.  Although  traditional  dieting  and  exercise  remain  the  best  way  to  lose  weight  and  maintain  the  weight  loss,  this  may  not  work  for  all  patients.  Even  patients  who  have  achieved  weight  loss  may  continue  to  have  small  “problem  areas.”  As  a  result,  patients  are  increasingly  turning  to  their  physicians,  desiring  new  technologies  to  help  achieve  body  contouring  and  the  ideal  physique.
