The search for the ideal body has been a long held mission for many people of all ages across the world. The idea of what constitutes the perfect body is a matter of personal taste and preferences but may also be affected by social media. In the search for a satisfying body image, patients have a variety of options available for cosmetic body contouring. In recent years, especially non-surgical body contouring treatments have become popular.
What is body contouring?
In the ideal world, we would all look into the mirror and be genuinely satisfied with the image we see. However, in reality, many people can point out at least one thing they would like to change about their bodies. Strict diet and intense training can take you some of the way but sometimes alternative approaches can be effective to reach aesthetic goals.
Today, there is a variety of options available for patients who wants to change or sculpture their body without undergoing surgical treatment. In this case, non-surgical body contouring treatment is an option for patients who want to achieve a long-lasting, non-permanent result without leaving any scars.
Body contouring can often be associated with treatments to reduce areas with excess body fat and cellulite. However, today, patients seeking body contouring not only want to reduce excess body fat, they also want to restore or add volume in certain areas.
Injectable body fillers
Body contouring treatments can be categorized into those treatments that remove unwanted body fat and those treatments that add volume. The latter of these two categories, namely injectable body contouring, is a treatment used for enlargement and enhancement of certain body areas.
An injectable body contouring treatment is a non-surgical aesthetic treatment that shapes the body by injecting a resorbable hyaluronic acid gel specifically developed for minimally invasive volume enhancement. Injectable body contouring represents an attractive treatment option for volume restoration or augmentation by providing predictable long-lasting results.
The benefit of the injectable body-contouring treatment is that the injectable hyaluronic acid body filler is a natural, resorbable gel that slowly degrades in the body over time. Results are predictable and long lasting and it is a non-surgical way of shaping the body.
The first resorbable, biocompatible filler to enhance body contours was Macrolane.

Injectable body contouring treatments are most often used on patients who seek to enlarge and enhance the calves and buttocks. However, body fillers can also be used to hydrate and correct irregularities in the skin surface such as those caused by weight loss etc.
The first body filler designed to shape the body and enhance body volume was Macrolane from Allergan. Macrolane was the first injectable, biocompatible hyaluronic acid gel designed to address the need for non-surgical body contouring treatments among patients.
The primary focus of Macrolane was to treat soft tissue irregularities following liposuction and to enhance the volume of the breasts. The product quickly became very successful in the aesthetic industry, but the product was discontinued in 2017. However, luckily, BioScience introduced a new hyaluronic acid body filler to the market in 2017: Hyacorp Body Contouring.

BioScience is the manufacturer behind the successors to Macrolane: Hyacorp MLF1 and Hyacorp MLF2. MLF1 and MLF2 are absorbable, high purity, hyaluronic acid body fillers specially designed for body contouring and shaping. The products are intended for restoring lost volume in different areas of the body and contouring body surfaces.
Body contouring treatments with the body fillers Hyacorp MLF1 and MLF2 are non-surgical aesthetic treatments available for patients who seek to contour the body without leaving any scars. The results obtained with Hyacorp body fillers are instant and the gel will slowly degrade in the body over time.
Hyacorp MLF1 and MLF2 have quickly become the preferred body fillers for body contouring treatments among many aesthetic professionals, and the demand for Hyacorp body fillers suggests that non-surgical body contouring treatments are the new black.
