What is noninvasive body contouring?
Noninvasive body contouring, or body sculpting, reshapes your body by permanently eliminating localized pockets of fat without surgery.
This type of body contouring is very effective, but it’s not intended for weight loss. As a result, optimal results are achieved when you’re close to your healthy weight yet still have nagging areas of fat that don’t go away.
The team at Thrive Full Body Wellness offer body contouring using the noninvasive SculpSure laser system.
What body areas are contoured with SculpSure?
SculpSure is FDA-cleared to permanently remove fat from six areas of the body:
- Abdomen
- Flanks (sides of your abdomen)
- Back
- Inner thighs
- Outer thighs
- Under your chin
How does SculpSure work?
The SculpSure laser operates at a precise wavelength that can safely pass through your skin to reach pockets of fat below the surface.
Fat cells absorb the wavelength, however, which heats them just enough to damage the cells. Your body carries the waste away through your lymph system as the compromised fat cells break down. As a result, the treated fat is gone for good.
What should you expect during SculpSure treatment?
The laser system comes with four applicators that are flat on the bottom, so they rest comfortably against your skin. When all four applicators are used, they treat your entire abdomen. The team at Thrive Full Body Wellness only use the number of applicators needed for the area being treated.
During your treatment session, the laser turns on and off in cycles that maintain the proper temperature in fat cells. Since each applicator has a built-in cooling system to keep your skin comfortable, you experience cycles of deep warmth that alternate with a cool sensation.
Will you need downtime to recover?
When your treatment is finished, your skin may be slightly red, much like a mild sunburn. Otherwise, you shouldn’t have side effects, so you can get back to your normal routine as soon as your session ends.
When will you see results?
One session with SculpSure lasts 25 minutes. Over time, you can expect to lose 24% of the fat treated during the session.*
It takes time for your body to finish clearing away the waste. You may begin to see a change in six weeks, but you can look forward to optimal results in about 12 weeks.
