Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That much is true. However, some beauty trends have prevailed for a long time due to their desirability among the population. You might be wrong to assume that the premium put on the hourglass body shape is only the latest fad. Beauty perceptions have changed from time to time, but the attraction of the hourglass body shape hasn’t waned – we’re talking centuries here.
While watching movies set in the Victorian era, you might’ve seen many scenes where maids are tightening the strings of a corset the heroine is wearing, rather agonisingly. You might’ve seen many women fainting as a result of wearing a corset because they simply couldn’t breathe properly. The purpose was to achieve this body shape, which is certainly a testament to its popularity.
Only gone are the days when you need to wear a corset to achieve this body shape. Your body doesn’t need to suffer. Wearing corsets led to many women having skeletal deformities. You do not have to go through such an excruciating experience for achieving this body shape, all thanks to the miracles of plastic surgery. With plastic surgery, all you have to do is get the surgery and patiently wait for recovery. After that, simply enjoy your new body. In this guide, you’ll find out how you can get an hourglass figure.
What Exactly Measures an Hourglass Body Shape?
There are many different types of body shapes. However, there are only a few categories. The categories have different measurements but this does not mean that one is better than the other. These only identify a few common body shapes.
As the name indicates, an hourglass body shape is so named after its resemblance to an hourglass. An hourglass’s upper and lower half is wide and roughly equal to each other, while the middle part is relatively narrow.
In a similar vein, the hourglass body shape has a wide bust, a narrow waist, and wide hips, which has a similar measurement to the bust. There are further categorizations of the hourglass body shape, where there is a top hourglass and a bottom hourglass body shape. In the top hourglass, the bust is larger than the hips, while in the bottom hourglass the hips are larger than the bust.
There are multiple factors that can determine your body shape, such as your bone structure, genetics, food intake, etc. The purpose of plastic surgeries performed for hourglass body shape is to give you a well-defined waist, fuller bust, and hips. This will make your body curvier or even accentuate your curves for a fuller look in the upper and lower body.
How You Can Achieve an Hourglass Figure with Plastic Surgery
If you’ve been dreaming of having the hourglass body shape, you don’t need to go about looking for corsets. You’ll probably have to suffer a lot if you wear them. Muscle weakness, atrophy, and back pain are just a few side effects of wearing corsets. Thankfully, we don’t live in a time where we have to wear corsets in order to achieve our desired body shape. There’s a far better alternative for you, and that’s plastic surgery.
There isn’t just one surgery called the “hourglass plastic surgery.” Different procedures can give you the same result, but it depends on your body shape and size, where fat transfer needs to take place for the hourglass figure.
For instance, if your hips are wider than your bust, then you might need a breast augmentation and/or breast uplift. Other than that, liposuction, tummy tuck, and Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) are also performed for an hourglass body shape. We will make sure to discuss the required surgeries with you in the consultation session. According to that, we will prepare you a bespoke treatment plan. For now, let’s take a look in detail at the surgeries performed for the hourglass body shape.
Breast Surgeries
Not necessarily do you always need to have a breast augmentation or breast uplift for an hourglass body shape. You can also have breast reduction surgery to make the measurement of your bust equal to that of your hips.
Some women have big, droopy, and saggy breasts. They can choose to have breast reduction surgery, especially if the weight of the breasts is causing them different aches and pains. You can have perky breasts as a result of this surgery, which can also help match their measurements to your hips.
Since the breast and the hips are the primary determinants of the hourglass body shape, many people get surgeries in these areas for their desired body shape.
Liposuction and Brazilian Butt Lift
Surgeons perform these surgeries together for an hourglass silhouette desired by the patient. The idea behind it is simple. Fat removal takes place from the flanks or love handles of the patient’s abdominal area. This fat gets transferred to the buttocks.
The loss of fat in the abdomen leads to narrowing of the waist, while the transfer of fat in the buttocks helps increase their size. Thus, you will have an hourglass figure after the surgery. Depending on your needs, you can get these procedures done.
Tummy Tuck Surgery
The removal of excess fat and skin through this surgery will end up giving you a smooth and contoured profile. If you have saggy skin in your abdominal area, then you might need to have liposuction with a tummy tuck.

Summing It Up
Have you ever imagined yourself in the place of those women who were getting their corsets tightened on your TV, mobile, or laptop screen? It feels painful to even look at. The long-term detrimental effects of wearing corsets are even worse. Wearing corsets can cause rib cage deformities, cause your muscle to weaken and atrophy, and can even cause breathing and digestive issues. You don’t have to do it for an hourglass body shape.
Many people simply consider it body goal and call it the ideal body shape. The trend for an hourglass body shape is nothing new. It’s been with us for centuries. However, it’s not as easy to get an hourglass body shape. You might do some exercise, but sometimes it’s just not possible. The size of your breasts or hips might be too different from each other. This means a fat transfer or breast surgery needs to take place for the sizes to become similar. Luckily, you don’t have to go through the painful experience of wearing a corset when you can opt for plastic surgery.
Depending on your need, we might recommend breast surgery, liposuction, tummy tuck, or Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). We will discuss this with you, so you have nothing to worry about on your arrival in Turkey. Are you someone who’s always admired the hourglass body shape? Then hop on the next plane to Turkey.
