Losing weight, working out, eating right, and doing crunch after crunch to try and get rid of stubborn body fat can leave you feeling overworked and underwhelmed. If you’ve almost reached your weight goals but need a little help slimming down those final few bulges, why not give body sculpting a try?
At New Image Medical Spa in Fremont, California, Dr. Surinder Sandhu offers noninvasive body sculpting options to help you finally get the body you’ve worked so hard to attain. No surgery required!
5 great benefits of body sculpting
If you’re wavering between having some surgical work done or trying body sculpting, here are some excellent reasons to opt for the more conservative treatment.
1. It’s nonsurgical so no worries about healing
Don’t love the idea of going under the knife to change up your look? No problem. Body sculpting uses smart science and your body’s own natural processes to melt away and flush out fat cells, leaving you looking slimmer and more toned without scalpels and stitches.
2. There’s virtually no downtime involved
If you decide on a surgical procedure — such as traditional liposuction or a tummy tuck — you’re looking at days or weeks of recovery and a fair amount of pain and swelling. Body sculpting doesn’t require special prep beforehand or downtime afterward, and the most discomfort you’ll feel is a mild soreness.
3. It’s less expensive than surgery
Cosmetic surgery carries a hefty price tag. In contrast, body sculpting, while not necessarily cheap, is more affordable for your budget. Plus, you can spread out treatments to target all your problem spots one by one.
4. Fat cells disappear naturally
Body sculpting can remove 20%-25% of targeted fat cells, without opening your skin. Gentle cooling or heating processes disrupt the fat cells, and your body flushes them away naturally over a period of weeks.
5. You can even get rid of a double chin without surgery
There’s a simple injection called Kybella® that Dr. Sandhu can use under your jaw to get rid of fat cells causing a double chin. You’ll look younger and trimmer in time for the family reunion this summer — with no surgical scars.
Your body contouring options
In addition to Kybella for submental fat under your chin, you can choose from different surgery-free body sculpting techniques at New Image Medical Spa. Either chill fat cells or heat them so they lose their integrity and die, with your body simply flushing them out of your system over time.
SculpSure®
The SculpSure system uses laser energy, targeting fat cells with heat and disrupting their composition. Most people get a few treatments spaced around six weeks apart for best results.
CoolSculpting®
CoolSculpting uses cryolipolysis to freeze and break down fat cell structure, and then the body does its thing to eliminate the dead cells, just like with the warming option. Similarly, achieving your body contouring goals may mean getting a few CoolSculpting treatments.
