The Role of Energy-Based Devices in Male Body Contouring

Energy-based devices extend the indications of traditional procedures in male body contouring. Devices currently available in this space may be noninvasive or minimally invasive. These devices use heat to destroy fat or tighten soft tissue and electromagnetic energy to build muscle mass. Thoughtful deployment of these technologies in isolation or in combination with each other or more traditional approaches can improve outcomes in male body contouring without an increase in scar burden. Patient selection and education are essential in maximizing satisfaction with these procedures.
