The Benefits of Non-Surgical Fat Reduction by SculpSure®

After years of dieting and exercising, it can be frustrating when you have stubborn areas of fat that refuse to budge despite your best efforts. In these types of situations, many people would love to drop the weight, but don’t want to undergo a surgical procedure to do so. Luckily, Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center offers Non-Surgical Fat Reduction by SculpSure®, which is a non-invasive treatment that reduces fat without the downtime, length and discomfort of a surgical procedure. This treatment has a number of advantages for those looking to reduce excess fat. To help you learn more about non-surgical fat reduction, we have compiled a few common benefits that this treatment carries.

How Does Non-Surgical Fat Reduction by SculpSure® Work?
As the name suggests, non-surgical fat reduction works to reduce fat without the need for a surgical procedure. This treatment uses laser technology to help achieve remarkable fat reduction results. Depending on the area you wish to treat, up to four flat plates are used to send controlled warmth into the layers of fat underneath your skin. In order to keep the patient completely comfortable during this process, surface cooling is used to cool the outer skin while the fat cells are being heated and treated.

Quick Treatment Time

While it may be hard to believe given the results, each treatment session is quick which means that you can get non-surgical fat reduction in less than 30 minutes. Depending on your desired results, you may need multiple sessions, but many patients are happy with their results after just one or two treatments. It’s important to note that right after treatment, results aren’t immediately visible. Since your body needs time to break down fat cells, most patients should expect to see their final results around six weeks after their last treatment.

Non-Surgical With Little Downtime

Because non-surgical fat reduction is performed with a laser, there is no need for incisions or anesthesia to be used during treatment. The non-invasive nature of this treatment allows for those with busy schedules to not have to worry about a lengthy recovery period.

Another benefit of non-surgical fat reduction is the short downtime. Commonly, most patients are able to return to their day-to-day lives immediately after their treatment session. Some patients may experience post-treatment symptoms such as mild redness, tenderness, swelling or tissue firmness, but all these side effects are temporary and fade away quickly.

Can Treat Multiple Areas of the Body

Compared to other fat reduction procedures, an advantage that Non-Surgical Fat Reduction by SculpSure® carries is its versatility. This treatment has been FDA-approved for the abdomen, inner thighs, outer thighs, back, flanks, neck and chin. As an added bonus, multiple areas of the body can be treated during one session with the use of the four individual flat plates to help make the length of the session even shorter.
