Contour body sculpting eliminates body fat without the need for surgery! Picture the areas on your body that have stubbornly retained fat even after going to the gym and dieting. It can seem like nothing works to get rid of those last bits, but now you can finally remove the fat without surgery.
Body sculpting, also known as body contouring, is a non-surgical technique that eliminates fat in targeted areas like thighs, abdomen, upper arm, love handles, etc. It works by freezing fat cells or using radio frequency to burn the fat cells.
We'll explore the procedures behind body contouring, the safety, the right candidate for the procedures, and more, courtesy of Skincredible Dermatology Surgery.
We all want to look great and feel good about our bodies. However, sometimes achieving our desired weight loss goals or body sculpting ideal is very difficult with diet and exercise alone.
Contour body sculpting is a procedure that will help you lose fat and get your curves exactly how you want them. It is a recent nonsurgical development that differs from the surgical procedure called liposuction. Both procedures permanently remove fat cells.
There are key differences, however. Nonsurgical body contouring is not meant to be a significant weight loss solution. It will focus on specific areas of excess fat and work to eliminate them. It should be used to remove stubborn fat cells, mainly after dieting and exercising failed to get the desired results.
On the other hand, liposuction is an invasive surgery designed as a major weight loss solution. The procedure involves putting the patient under, making dozens of incisions in the unwanted excess fat areas, and then sucking out the targeted fat cells.
First, there are several ways of body contouring. Here at Skincredible, we offer CoolSculpting and Emsculpt Neo (our specialties), but other options include ultrasound fat reduction and injection lipolysis. Here’s how body contouring works.
Did you know that this method was initially developed at Harvard University with the help of Massachusetts General Hospital specialists?
Also called cryolipolysis, CoolSculpting involves freezing the target fat cells. Naturally, fat cells freeze (crystallize) at a lower temperature than normal cells. It's possible to destroy fat cells without destroying the body cells in the skin, nerves, muscles, or other tissues. Eventually, your body will remove the frozen fat cells, eliminating them forever.
At Skincredible, one of our highly trained staff will perform this nonsurgical fat reduction procedure and help you get the body you've been dreaming about.
With Emsculpt Neo, you can burn fat and build muscle at the same time. Emsculpt is based on high-intensity focused radio-frequency heating and electromagnetic energy. A single Emsculpt session causes thousands of powerful muscle contractions which are extremely important in improving the tone and strength of your muscles.
Emsculpt is also a nonsurgical body sculpting procedure. It increases the temperature of the targeted fat cells and muscles quickly. In just a few minutes, the high temperature will permanently damage fat cells and remove them from the body. Studies have shown an average of 30% reduction in subcutaneous fat.
This method utilizes radiofrequency and ultrasound to shape your body non-surgically. It helps you reduce fat deposits and cellulite and firm up your body and facial skin.
If you are looking to tighten loose skin, this is a perfect option for you.
How does the method work? A probing machine massages over your target areas. It damages fat cells, killing and dissolving them.
This method is minimally invasive and removes fat under the chin (submental area double chin).
The doctor injects deoxycholic acid typically produced by your body for fat absorption. The acid will destroy fat cells. The injection's target area is under the chin and the treatment session takes thirty minutes. Since bruising and swelling are little to none, the patient can resume their daily activities soon afterward.
Are body contouring procedures scientifically proven? Yes, they are scientifically proven. The FDA has cleared both CoolSculpting and Emsculpt Neo.
Are you considering body contouring procedures? If yes, first, ensure you are within 20–30 pounds of your weight goal.
For instance, for a target of 155 pounds, get the procedure when you weigh 175–185 pounds.
Additionally, most body contouring clients adjust their diet and exercise plans. That's because you don't want to go back to the same misery again.
Second, be healthy. You need your body to be at its best to respond well to this kind of treatment.
Now, how long do you have to wait to see the results? After the first CoolSculpting session, expect results within two to three months. Some clients see results as soon as one month!
With Emsculpt Neo, you will see results almost immediately.
An average session takes 30–60 minutes and you won't experience scary pain! Some clients do experience the following:
Most clients feel a dull pressure and mild cooling or heating in the treated areas. Either way, the effects are temporary and after the procedure, you don't need recuperation time.
You'll have a one-on-one session with a clinician who helps you determine the parts which require reshaping.
We have experienced and award-winning physicians like Dr. Bobby (the medical director) and PA-C Anissa Mansoori as a part of our team. You are in safe hands.
After an examination, the doctor will make a customized sessions plan if you qualify for the procedure. If you are some pounds from your desired weight, the plan will benefit you with some additional treatment.
At Skincredible, we offer CoolSculpting and Emsculpt Neo to clients with stubborn fat in areas like:
These methods remove about ninety percent of targeted fat cells within ten weeks. But the results can continue to manifest for up to six months.
Does fat grow back after body sculpting? No, it doesn't because the fat cells are dead. The body doesn't replace the frozen fat cells either. However, fat grows back in the treated areas if you gain weight after the treatment.
So what can you do? After the treatment sessions, do the following:
You can repeat CoolSculpting and Emsculpt in the same area safely. However, ensure that the procedures are spaced by at least three weeks.
After each session, you'll lose 20–90% fat cells in a particular area. For instance, if you target losing fat in your love handles, you can lose 20% with the fast treatment.
Subsequently, you lose 60% and then 20%. At the end of the day, you'll lose all the target fat cells.
The good news is, after the non-invasive body contouring procedures, the body metabolizes and eliminates the dead fat cells.
The body contouring treatment area determines the cost. If it's a small area, the cost will be lower, and the opposite is true.
Usually, the cost of body contouring can be as low as $650 or as high as $4000 per session. Also, if you want multiple treatment areas, you'll have additional costs. It may seem like a lot, but the results are astonishing and in the end, it is a small price to price for your happiness.
To understand the advantages of nonsurgical treatments, note the following liposuction risks given by plastic surgeons:
You should listen to your physician's advice when considering any surgical procedures. For simple fat loss, you don't have to get liposuction; come to Skincredible for nonsurgical fat reduction.
We offer more than body contouring treatments, which is part of why our clients are always satisfied.
Nonsurgical fat reduction treatments cause meaningful weight loss for people who have almost achieved their desired body size.
Its advantages include:
The non-surgical body contouring machine works by suctioning the portions of your skin where you would like to lose excess fat. The special tool cools the area of fat to a freezing temperature. The liver naturally destroys the frozen fat cells beneath the skin over the next few weeks.
The machine is effective in different body parts, including the arms, love handles, thighs, chin, back, underarms, and more. We'll discuss your goals and carry out the body contouring procedures that suit your body shape.
This other nonsurgical body contouring machine works by placing a stimulator on the portions of your body where you would like to lose excess fat and develop muscle. Unlike most body contouring procedures, the Emsculpt Neo simultaneously eliminates fat and builds muscle. The stimulator emits a radio frequency that heats the fat cells to a temperature that causes them to be damaged and removed. It also contracts the muscles of the area mimicking a workout.
The machine can be used on the arms, legs, glutes, and abdominal muscles.
