The Pear-Shaped Body

In Dallas, Texas

A pear-shaped body is exactly what it sounds like: a body that is narrow at the top, but wide at the bottom. The pear-shaped body can be due to two different factors: fat deposition and bone structure.

Fat Deposition
The majority of women with pear-shaped bodies have them as a result of fat deposits in the abdomen, flanks, buttocks, and hips, which can cause their bodies to be unshapely and lumpy. They lose their narrow waists, and their stomach and buttocks become large, fatty, and sagging, which can also make breasts look smaller. To remedy this condition, liposuction can be used to remove the fat deposits, leading to a shapelier figure with the flatter stomach and pronounced waist and hips associated with feminine beauty.

Bone Structure
Some women have pear-shaped bodies as a result of their bone structure. With narrow shoulders and wide hips, these women are naturally pear-shaped, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Pear-shaped women have what might be termed "Classical beauty," a figure more similar to classical statuary than contemporary representations of beauty, but contemporary celebrities with pear-shaped bodies include Kristen Davis and Jennifer Lopez. Dressing properly can accentuate the curves of these pear-shaped bodies to good effect.

However, these women also face the danger of fat deposition. As long as pear-shaped bodies are well-toned with muscular buttocks, they can be very attractive, but with too much fat, the positive, curvaceous pear-shaped body can transform into a less shapely one. If this has happened to you, liposuction can still help you achieve the odalisque ideal of a shapely form. Some women can also balance their figure with breast augmentation, although this depends on the size of their shoulders and rib cage.
