Everyone desires to feel and look good, and with regular exercise and proper nutrition, staying healthy is easily attainable. However, without additional means, achieving fitness goals can be challenging for many people. Despite having an active and healthy lifestyle, many people need extra help with fat-stubborn body areas like the upper arms, abdomen, and buttocks. The good news is that body sculpting Denver can help you reduce stubborn fat pockets.
There are various body sculpting techniques, including surgical and nonsurgical methods. Both methods are not a weight loss solution; instead, they are ideal for individuals at a healthy weight but wish to get rid of unwanted fat deposits. Usually, this means excess fat that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise. For most body contouring procedures, one must have a body mass index of less than 30. Nonsurgical body sculpting procedures require multiple sessions for the best outcome. Read on to know your options for nonsurgical body sculpting.
Cryolipolysis
Cryolipolysis is a non-invasive procedure that relies on very cold temperatures to destroy fat cells, reducing or eliminating fat pockets. During this treatment, your provider places a cupped device on the skin around the area to be treated. The device lowers the temperature enough to freeze and destroy the fat cells, leaving the muscle, skin, and nerve tissue cells unharmed. These tissues usually freeze at lower temperatures than fat cells. Cryolipolysis can eliminate or reduce stubborn fat in different body parts, including the chin, abdomen, hips, thighs, underarms, and buttocks.
The procedure is not painful, but the intense feeling of coldness may result in discomfort. Like other body sculpting procedures, cryolipolysis is ideal for patients who want to reduce fat bulges and not lose weight. Many people notice results within one month; the effects may stay longer if you don’t gain significant weight.
Laser treatment
Laser treatment uses controlled heat to dismantle subcutaneous fat. During this procedure, your provider targets the fatty tissue using a laser device until the fat cells break down. Laser devices have a cooling mechanism that ensures your skin stays unharmed during the procedure. Your doctor may use this treatment to eliminate stubborn fat in the abdomen and flanks. You may experience a warm sensation during treatment, but the procedure is painless. Laser treatment takes about 25 minutes and produces noticeable results in approximately six weeks.
Red light therapy
Red light therapy is a new treatment whereby a specialized lamp sends light of specific wavelengths through the skin. The light triggers the targeted fat cells, causing them to create small openings through which they release some of their contents. As a result, the fat cells shrink in size, resulting in the desired fat loss. Red light therapy is suitable for the abdomen, hips, thighs, and other areas, as your specialist may recommend. The treatment takes about 30 minutes and requires minimal downtime since it is non-invasive. While the procedure is low-risk, it is unsuitable if you are pregnant or your liver function is compromised.
