Accumulation of excess fat deposits in certain areas of the body is a common occurrence among men and women as they age. The terrific news is that it is possible to lose fat in targeted areas of the body with a variety of non-surgical body contouring procedures.
CoolSculpting and SculpSure are two distinct procedures designed for body contouring. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides cutting edge fat reduction procedures to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles CA, and surrounding locations.
CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting is a complete non-invasive, next generation fat reduction technique that has transformed the field of body contouring. The procedure has been cleared by the FDA, and is completely safe, painless and involves little to no downtime. The unique cooling technique of CoolSculpting can simply freeze the fat off to trigger its elimination from the body and restoration of slimmer and more youthful contours.
CoolSculpting technique was developed by Harvard scientists who utilized a unique cooling process to isolate and neutralize unwanted fat cells to create improved contours in targeted areas of the body. Without involving any cuts, incisions, needles or anesthesia, this procedure can create sustainable, natural looking body contouring results. Precise and controlled cooling process ensures that no harm is caused to the surrounding healthy skin and tissue.
Cryolipolysis
CoolSculpting employs an advanced cryolipolysis technique that is designed to achieve fat loss in a gentle, smooth way. Results are more uniform and even looking. The technique works on the principle that fat cells will respond quickly to cold temperatures and will become frozen. These frozen cells will eventually die and get removed from the body in a natural metabolic process.
Therefore, the contours are enhanced in a gradual, natural looking manner. The technique can be performed on an outpatient basis over a few treatment sessions lasting one hour per session. The patient will lose fat permanently in the treated areas and the results will be comprehensive. Dr. Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles CA, and nearby areas.
SculpSure
SculpSure works on a heat based principle to reduce fat pockets in targeted areas of the body. This makes it a completely divergent procedure from CoolSculpting, but having the same goal to improve body contours. While CoolSculpting is designed to freeze the fat off, SculpSure will dissolve the fat through laser based lipolysis technique.
SculpSure holds the distinction of being the world’s first FDA cleared laser procedure for non-surgical lipolysis of the abdomen and flanks. The procedure involves the use of 1060 nm wavelength diode laser, which is a color blind laser, making it safe for all skin types. Optimal outcomes with SculpSure are obtained in patients who have a BMI of 30 or less.
Gentle, controlled heat is delivered to targeted areas through this hyperthermic device to destroy unwanted fat cells. Once the treatment is completed, the patient can expect to have about 20 to 25 percent fat reduction in the treated areas. The precision of laser technique ensures that the surrounding skin remains unaffected with SculpSure.
