Stubborn pockets of fat are a nuisance to deal with, especially when you’ve worked hard to reach your ideal weight. Where surgery was once the only way to get rid of excess fat, today there are non-invasive options available too, and SculpSure is one of the most effective.
SculpSure is an FDA-approved laser system that is designed to destroy excess fat cells on the thighs, stomach, back, arms and chin using controlled heat. Since the heat that’s produced is feathered, there is no risk of dimpling or dents after treatment. The heat also stimulates collagen, which improves skin laxity and texture at the same time.
It’s important to remember that every individual is unique and so too are their needs and desired outcomes for cosmetic surgery. If you’re considering a procedure, it’s essential to have a comprehensive consultation with one of our experienced surgeons. They can help you understand whether you’re a suitable candidate and what you can realistically expect from the surgery. The information provided here is meant to help guide you, but it’s not a replacement for professional medical advice. Always organise a consultation for personalised advice.
If you are concerned about the way you look or are thinking about cosmetic surgery for confidence reasons, there are alternatives. Talking to a counsellor or psychologist may help you overcome your concerns about your appearance.
During your SculpSure Laser treatment, holders will be placed on the area that you want to treat. Once the system is activated, patients can expect to feel heat as well as a cooling sensation, which is what makes the treatments comfortable.
The number of applicators that are applied to the body will depend on the size of the area being treated but the average treatment doesn’t last longer than 30 minutes.
As the applicators heat up, it also raises the temperature of the fat cells, which destroys their structural integrity. Over the next few weeks, the fat cells will be eliminated via the body’s lymphatic system.
In most cases, patients can expect to achieve at least a 20% reduction in unwanted fat after every session.
