SculpSure is a noninvasive laser treatment dedicated to reducing and eliminating fat. It’s great for men and women with a wide array of body types. Procedures are also pretty quick, taking about 25 minutes each with the ability to target multiple areas at once.
SculpSure: Nonsurgical Fat Reduction
These sorts of nonsurgical procedures are gaining popularity among those who want to reduce or eliminate fat from their bodies. Nonsurgical procedures are coveted since they do not require anesthesia or incisions.
Barely any discomfort, fast procedure time, and quick recovery are all benefits you will enjoy during this fat removal technique. Unlike the other, invasive type of laser liposuction (think AirSculpt, TriSculpt, and SmartLipo), this process involves no incisions or anesthesia.
What Happens During SculpSure?
This procedure uses a hands-free laser programmed to specific wavelengths and temperatures designed to eliminate fat cells. The Food and Drug Administration approved SculpSure for the following areas: upper and lower abs and flanks.
The ideal patients for a SculpSure have a body mass index of 30 or less. It’s important to note that SculpSure is not a weight-loss method; therefore, those who are obese should not view this as the best treatment option.
SculpSure Pricing
The cost of SculpSure depends on the area from which you want to remove fat — nevertheless, the average price for a nonsurgical fat reduction such as SculpSure falls around $1500.
How to Prepare for SculpSure
Make sure to speak to your licensed practitioner to discuss what areas of your body you’d like to treat. The practitioner will determine the number of sessions you need after evaluating your needs and goals. Based on the jurisdiction of your state, the practitioner may be one of the following:
- Doctor
- Physician Assistant
- Nurse/ Nurse Practitioner
- Aesthetician
How Does Laser Lipo Work?
SculpSure is a variant of noninvasive laser lipolysis, which roughly translates to a fat-eliminating process that utilizes lasers to melt fat cells.
You’ll begin your session by sitting in a reclined position. The practitioner will then mark the treatment areas on the body. Afterward, the SculpSure device is placed around you like a belt, delivering a diode laser that reaches a temperature of 116.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
This heat is hot enough to eliminate fat cells underneath the skin without harming other tissues. Afterward, the device gives off a cooling effect. It’s such a seamless procedure that you’re able to read or nap during it.
Recovery from SculpSure
A SculpSure procedure lasts around 25 minutes, with little to no recovery time. It’s so fast that it’s even possible to get a SculpSure on your lunch break and go back to work without any discomfort.
Fat reductions are noticeable after around six weeks, considering that’s the time your body usually takes to metabolize fat cells.
