A New You for 2016

After the new year when the holidays are over, it's time to do something for yourself, like improving those areas you may be self-conscious about your stubborn body fat or veiny legs. A beautiful new you begins with a consultation with your dermatologic surgeon and vein specialist to see what treatments and options are best for you.

SmartLipo
Laser Body Sculpting

SmartLipo laser body sculpting is minimally invasive treatment that helps to eliminate those stubborn areas of fat works by permanently destroying fat cells. This allows you to create the curves and contours ideal for your body without the concern of fat returning in areas treated. If you maintain a healthy diet and exercise, you can finally have the body you've always wanted.

SmartLipo laser body sculpting is a laser-assisted lipolysis (fat destruction) procedure performed using a one millimeter cannula (or tube) inserted into the skin. A laser fiber inside of the cannula delivers energy directly to fat cells, causing them to rupture and drain away as a liquid, which is removed during the procedure.

Simultaneously, tissue around the area coagulates, resulting in overall skin tightening. It is a minimally invasive procedure, which usually requires only local anesthesia. Results can be seen within a week, with continued improvement over three to six months. A compression garment is worn for a short period after treatment, depending on the body area treated.

SculpSure Fat Removal

This is a non-invasive body contouring system for the reduction of stubborn fat in areas such as the abdomen and love handles. The 25 minute procedure destroys treated fat cells without surgery.

Is it right for me?

SculpSure is ideal for people with trouble spots, particularly those that seem resistant to diet and
exercise.

How many
treatments will I need?

Most patients see results with as little as one treatment. However, you may wish to have additional treatments based on your desired results.

What should I expect?

Most patients feel a tingling sensation intermittently throughout the treatment which is generally well-tolerated.

When will I see results?

Many patients start to see results as early as six weeks following treatment as the body begins to evacuate the destroyed cells, with optimal results usually seen at 12 weeks.

How long before I can resume normal activities?

There is no downtime, so you can have the treatment during your lunch hour and return to work immediately.

Speak with your board-certified dermatologist to see if SculpSure is a good option for you.
