Abstract

A method of liposculpting a predetermined body area which is adjacently associated with at least one muscle bundle resulting in a natural, defined appearance of the muscle bundle. A treatment area from which fat tissue is removed by suction is at least partially defined by determining positions of the muscle in at least a relaxed state and a flexed or contracted state. Dependent on the particular physical characteristics of the affected muscle bundle, the flexed state can be defined by an isometric contraction as well as an isotonic contraction of the associated muscle bundle. The naturally defined appearance is accomplished by removing variable quantities of fat tissue from different portions of the treatment area, to the extent that greater quantity of fat tissue remains within the treatment area in a direction towards the substantial center of the muscle bundle and a gradually, successively lesser quantity of fat tissue remains within the treatment area in a direction away from the muscle bundle.
