Body Contouring Clinics
Body contouring is an effective treatment for many reasons. It can eliminate loose skin and cellulite, as well as stubborn belly fat. The procedures are generally safe and can be done by a board-certified physician. Patients should be advised to continue with a healthy lifestyle after their procedures, to achieve the best results.
Most patients can go home the same day after their procedure. After undergoing a procedure, patients can expect to experience redness and minor swelling in the operating area. These effects are temporary and will subside as the body recovers and rids itself of the dead fat cells. Body contouring procedures do not require hospitalization and patients can return to normal activities immediately.
Non-surgical body contouring treatments are becoming increasingly popular. Non-invasive treatments use radiofrequency energy and other technologies to break down fat cells without requiring surgery or downtime. CoolSculpting and Thermage use non-invasive methods to minimize the appearance of cellulite and reduce fat cells. In addition to fat reduction, these procedures can also help reduce sagging skin and improve the appearance of many areas of the body.
Ultrasound body contouring is another type of non-invasive procedure. It is an FDA-cleared procedure that targets stubborn fat cells with radiofrequency waves. The procedure is safe and effective and can be used on different body parts. This procedure is ideal for patients who wish to slim down without undergoing invasive cosmetic surgery. Ultrasound body contouring procedures use a hand-held device to deliver ultrasound energy to fat cells, which cause them to liquefy and be excreted naturally through the urine.
