Resumen
Antecedentes: El estudio de la imagen corporal ha sido objeto de numerosas investigaciones. Actualmente muchas mujeres están dispuestas a hacer dietas estrictas, seguir duros programas de ejercicio físico e incluso a tomar drogas a fin de aproximarse a un “·ideal corporal”, altamente difundido en nuestra sociedad occidental (1). Si bien es verdad que esta preocupación por la apariencia física alcanza su punto más alto en la adolescencia, el culto al cuerpo es una variable que se mantiene más o menos constante a lo largo de toda la vida. Reportes Cash y cols han mostrado que el 48% de mujeres adultas evalúa negativamente su apariencia, un 63% está insatisfecha con su peso y un 49% está preocupada con el sobrepeso (2). En estudios posteriores, Palladino y Pritchard han hallado resultados similares (3).
Los brazos son componentes importantes y altamente estéticos del contorno corporal, razón por la cual la preocupación por mantenerlos delgados, firmes y ausentes de flacidez va aumentando considerablemente no solo en mujeres sino también en el sexo masculino, especialmente en personas que anteriormente se hayan sometido a cirugías para disminuir el peso corporal (cirugía post-bariátrica). De igual forma, la presencia de lipohipertrofia o lipodistrofia de esta zona, que afecta a personas mayores de 40 años por envejecimiento de tejidos, lo que hace necesario en algunos casos la aplicación de procedimiento quirúrgicos (4). El contorno del brazo en mujeres difiere de las expectativas masculinas, en cuanto a volumen y definición; sin embargo, es común encontrar preocupación en cuanto a la apariencia del brazo en mujeres. Existen diversas técnicas para mejorar la apariencia del brazo, pero no todas ofrecen una adecuada definición de éste. La cirugía de contorno corporal es cada vez más frecuente, principalmente debido a la
creciente popularidad que han tenido los procedimientos estéticos (5), y a la creciente población de pacientes con pérdida masiva de peso (6). La cirugía de contorno corporal consiste en un conjunto de técnicas que tienen como objetivo final mejorar la figura. Estos procedimientos pueden abarcar desde la liposucción (7-9), hasta grandes resecciones dermocutáneas como los body lifts (10-13).
Partiendo de un contorno ideal, se debe tener en cuenta dentro de los objetivos del tratamiento la disposición muscular y la masa magra de cada paciente; así entonces el conocimiento de estos parámetros partiendo de un posible “contorno ideal” es vital para optimizar los resultados, sin embargo la literatura sobre este contorno ideal es escasa y la existente no se basa más allá de “figuras ideales” lo que conlleva a crear parámetros de contorno con poca evidencia.
Objetivo: Establecer los biotipos de contorno del brazo deseado por las mujeres y determinar el peso en kilogramos de grasa y músculo ideal de los brazos. Barranquilla 2019.
Background: The study of body image has been the subject of numerous investigations. Many women are currently willing to make strict diets, follow hard physical exercise programs and even take drugs in order to approximate a “• body ideal”, widely spread in our western society (1). While it is true that this concern for physical appearance reaches its highest point in adolescence, body worship is a variable that remains more or less constant throughout life. Cash and cols reports have shown that 48% of adult women negatively assess their appearance, 63% are dissatisfied with their weight and 49% are worried about being overweight (2). In subsequent studies, Palladino and Pritchard have found similar results (3). The arms are important and highly aesthetic components of the body contour, which is why the concern to keep them thin, firm and absent from sagging is increasing considerably not only in women but also in the male sex, especially in people who have previously undergone surgeries to reduce body weight (post-bariatric surgery). Similarly, the presence of lipohypertrophy or lipodystrophy in this area, which affects people over 40 years of age due to tissue aging, which makes the application of surgical procedures necessary in some cases (4). The arm contour in women differs from male expectations, in terms of volume and definition; however, it is common to find concern about the appearance of the arm in women. There are several techniques to improve the appearance of the arm, but not all offer an adequate definition of it. Body contouring surgery is increasingly common, mainly due to the increasing popularity of cosmetic procedures (5), and the growing population of patients with massive weight loss (6). Body contouring surgery consists of a set of techniques that aim to improve the figure. These procedures can range from liposuction (7-9), to large dermocutaneous resections such as body lifts (1013). Starting from an ideal contour, the muscular disposition and lean mass of each patient must be taken into account within the treatment objectives; Thus, knowledge of these parameters based on a possible "ideal contour" is vital to optimize the results, however the literature on this ideal contour is scarce and the existing one is not based beyond "ideal figures" which leads to creating contour parameters with little evidence. Objective: Establish the arm contour biotypes desired by women and determine the weight in kilograms of fat and ideal arm muscle. Barranquilla 2019.
