• Expected Results: Most clients see a reduction in fat volume in the treated area, with improvements starting around 6 weeks post-treatment and optimal results typically visible by 12 weeks.

• Technology Used: SculpSure laser system (1060 nm wavelength), which selectively targets subcutaneous fat while cooling the skin’s surface for a comfortable experience.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q1: How does SculpSure Body Contouring work?
A: SculpSure uses a 1060 nm laser to heat fat cells beneath the skin, causing them to break down. Over the next few weeks, the body’s lymphatic system processes and eliminates these disrupted fat cells, reducing fat volume in the treated area.

Q2: Is SculpSure Body Contouring painful?
A: Most clients feel a warming sensation with intermittent cooling, and some experience mild discomfort. The SculpSure system includes cooling technology to keep the skin comfortable throughout the session.

Q3: How many treatments will I need for the best results?
A: We recommend a minimum of 2 sessions per area, spaced 6 weeks apart, for optimal results. After completing a package of 2, additional sessions can be scheduled as needed. During your consultation, we’ll design a treatment plan tailored to your goals.

Q4: Are there any side effects or downtime?
A: Side effects are typically mild and may include temporary tenderness, redness, or slight bruising. There is no required downtime, and clients generally resume their usual activities immediately.

Q5: Will the treated fat return?
A: The fat cells targeted by SculpSure are permanently destroyed and eliminated from the body. However, maintaining a stable weight through a healthy lifestyle is important, as weight changes can impact untreated fat cells.
