Body contouring addresses localized fat, skin laxity, and body proportions using non-invasive or minimally invasive techniques. This book covers the science and protocols of cryolipolysis, radiofrequency, ultrasound, injectable lipolysis, and manual sculpting methods. It explains patient selection, safety considerations, and realistic expectations. Diagrams and treatment plans help practitioners design customized protocols for abdominal, thigh, arm, and flank areas. Post-treatment care and result maintenance are also addressed, enabling effective integration of body shaping into aesthetic practice.

Her clinical research emphasizes patient satisfaction and safety in liposculpture procedures. Russo’s publications span adipose modulation, anesthesia techniques, and post-treatment care. She brings an editorial lens to emerging methods and evidence in body contouring. A frequent lecturer, she champions body inclusivity in aesthetic planning. She also explores the role of patient psychology in aesthetic outcomes.
