Body Contouring
in Wausau, WI
Body contouring in Wausau, Wisconsin, at Doctor’s Weight Loss & Aesthetics of Wisconsin targets stubborn fat pockets to refine your shape without surgery.
Targeted Fat Reduction
What Body Contouring Treats at Our Wausau Clinic
Healthy eating and regular exercise lower overall body fat, yet many patients find a few localized fat deposits stay put even at a steady weight. Our body contouring in Wausau program targets these specific areas with non-surgical treatments your provider selects after an in-person assessment.
Body contouring refines shape and proportion. It suits patients at or near a stable weight who want smoother lines in one or two problem areas. Patients with more weight to lose usually begin with medical weight loss and add contouring once their weight settles, so the results stay proportionate to their new frame.
All sessions take place at our clinic on Rib Mountain Drive. Your provider schedules them around your progress, your goals, and the response of each treated area.
Common Treatment Zones
Areas Our Providers Refine With Contouring
Each of these five zones tends to hold stubborn fat after weight loss, and your provider can treat one area or combine several in a single plan.
Lower Abdomen
Reduces the lower belly pouch often left behind after weight loss.
Flanks and Love Handles
Smooths the waistline to create a cleaner, more defined side profile.
Inner and Outer Thighs
Refines the thigh contour for a smoother and more balanced shape.
Bra Line and Upper Back
Softens the fullness around the bra strap and the upper back.
Upper Arms
Reduces lingering fullness along the back of the upper arm area.
Injection-Based Fat Reduction
LipoDissolve as Part of Your Contouring Plan
LipoDissolve is one of the non-surgical treatments available at our clinic. Your provider injects a specialized formula directly into the target area, where it breaks down the membranes of localized fat cells. Over the following weeks, the body clears the released fat through its natural lymphatic processes.
Most patients complete two to four sessions of 15 to 30 minutes each. Visible changes usually develop within three to six weeks as the body processes the treated fat. Treated fat cells are cleared from the area permanently, and keeping your weight stable helps protect the new contour over time.
During your consultation, your provider explains whether LipoDissolve or another contouring approach best suits the size and location of your treatment area.
Comparing Treatment Approaches
Non-Surgical Body Contouring Compared With Liposuction
Non-surgical body contouring in Wausau, WI, gives patients a gentler path to refining small areas without an operating room or an extended recovery period. The table below compares the two approaches on the factors patients ask about most.
| Feature | Non-Surgical Body Contouring | Surgical Liposuction |
|---|---|---|
| Incisions | None | Small surgical incisions |
| Anesthesia | Not required | Local or general anesthesia |
| Session time | 15 to 30 minutes | Longer surgical procedure |
| Recovery | Daily activities resume quickly | Several days to weeks |
| Results timeline | Gradual over three to six weeks | Visible as swelling subsides |
| Ideal treatment size | Small, localized fat pockets | Larger volumes of fat |
Patients who want to remove larger volumes of fat may need a surgical consultation elsewhere. Your provider will tell you honestly which category your goals fall into.
Ideal Patient Profile
Who Makes a Strong Candidate for Body Sculpting
Body sculpting in Wausau, WI, delivers its best results for patients whose goals center on shape refinement. Your provider looks for these five qualities during your assessment:
- Near a stable goal weight: Weight has held steady within a healthy range for some time.
- Localized stubborn fat: Small, pinchable deposits that resist diet and exercise.
- Healthy skin in treatment areas: Clear skin with stable general health and medical history.
- Realistic expectations: Goals focused on gradual refinement of shape and proportion.
- Commitment to maintenance: Willingness to protect results through nutrition and activity.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding delay treatment. Certain medical conditions may also call for a different plan, so your provider reviews your full health history before any session.

Weight Loss and Contouring Together
Pairing Medical Weight Loss With Body Contouring
Many patients first come to our clinic for medical weight loss and add contouring after reaching a stable weight. Coordinating both stages under one team keeps your care consistent. Your provider times contouring sessions for when weight changes have slowed, so each treated area reflects your final shape.
Nutrition coaching continues alongside contouring to help protect your results. Protein-focused meals and regular strength training support lean muscle. Firmer muscle beneath a refined fat layer gives treated areas a more sculpted appearance. This combined approach to post-weight-loss contouring helps many patients complete their goals in one coordinated plan.

Patient Concerns Before Treatment
Frequently Asked Questions
Is body contouring a weight loss treatment?
Body contouring refines specific areas of stubborn fat and suits patients at or near a stable weight. Patients with more weight to lose usually start with medical weight loss and add contouring once their weight settles.
How many sessions will I need?
Most LipoDissolve plans involve two to four sessions per treatment area. Your provider sets the exact number based on the size of the area, the amount of fat present, and your shaping goals.
Are body contouring results permanent?
Treated fat cells are cleared from the area, so results last as long as your weight stays stable. Significant weight gain can enlarge the remaining fat cells, which is why nutrition and activity remain part of your plan.
How much does body contouring in Wausau cost?
Cost depends on the number of areas treated and the sessions each one requires. Contact our team for current pricing, and ask about financing through Cherry and CareCredit.
