Working Out Isn’t The Only Option for Toning Your Body
If you are tired of doing endless push-ups, crunches, and cardio only to produce lacklustre results, or if you have stubborn fat deposits that won’t go away, then body sculpting is the perfect option for you!
What is Body Sculpting?
This
skin tightening treatment is a non-surgical, non-invasive procedure that encourages the reshaping or contouring of your body. It is designed to firm your skin and reduce signs of aging using infrared lasers.
Body sculpting works by heating up the collagen in your skin, causing it to constrict. You can also freeze the fat cells, which ultimately destroys them. Body sculpting can be used on the arms, back, abdomen, thighs, and hips (love handles) to reduce fat and sculpt your body.
It’s a quick treatment that requires little to no downtime, does not require any anesthesia (or incisions), leaves no scars, and has few to no side effects.
Who is a Good Candidate for This Treatment?
Many people - both men and women - can benefit from skin tightening treatments. The treatment is helpful for those struggling with stubborn fat deposits.
Since body sculpting is used for fat loss, not weight loss, you should be close to your ideal weight. The best candidates are those within 10-20 pounds of their ideal weight.
People of all skin types can rely on this treatment, as the laser will not damage your skin.
Those with scars in the area or loose skin will not benefit from this treatment. Infections, scars, and open sores need to be avoided when it comes to body sculpting.
The ideal candidate should wear sunscreen regularly before the treatment. Those who wish to have skin tightening on their face should avoid facial peels or chemical treatments up to one month before the treatment date.
If you are unsure if you are a suitable candidate for body sculpting, book a consultation with Sunswirl Laser & Esthetics. We will review your medical history and discuss your options based on your specific situation.
What Does the Treatment Feel Like?
Generally, you’ll feel a warming or cooling sensation depending on the treatment you receive (some heat the cells, while others freeze the fat cells), and some slight pressure. Overall, the treatment is pain-free, but you may feel some discomfort depending on your pain tolerance.
What Can I Expect Before and After the Treatment?
Before the treatment, you’ll meet with the specialist to review your goals and medical history and determine whether or not this treatment is appropriate for you. The area will be examined, measured, and photographed to obtain body sculpting before and after photos.
There are many different types of body contouring treatments available, but none of them should hurt. However, depending on your level of pain tolerance, you may feel some discomfort (but it should be minimal). You can expect to feel a warming sensation and perhaps some pressure, but the treatment is quick (around 30 minutes or less).
Afterward, you’ll be able to resume your daily activities. There may be some mild side effects including redness, swelling, and tenderness. These will subside after a few days.
