2. The Ideal Candidate Profile

2.1. Close to Your Goal Weight

• Body Mass Index (BMI) under 30 typically yields the best results.
• Non-surgical contouring is for shaping, not major weight loss.

2.2. Localized Fat Deposits

• Trouble spots: abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, double chin.
• Areas resistant to diet and exercise respond best.

2.3. Healthy Skin Elasticity

• Firm, elastic skin adapts better to new contours.
• Clients with significant skin laxity may need combination treatments.

2.4. Stable Lifestyle Habits

• Consistent diet and exercise help maintain results.
• Non-smokers generally see faster recovery.
