What is body sculpting?

Body sculpting procedures use different types of energy to kill fat cells and visibly tighten skin. Once the treatment is complete, the body processes and filters out the destroyed fat cells over the course of the next 3-4 months, which is when most people see the full effect of the procedure.

Are there different types of body sculpting treatments?

Now that you know how body sculpting works, let’s review the different types of body sculpting available. There are several different types of body sculpting treatments. The two types we’ll focus on here first are treatments using ultrasound and radio frequency to target and shape areas.

Ultrasound body sculpting

This procedure uses ultrasound waves to break down fat. Ultrasound frequencies are very gentle on the skin and allow you to precisely target specific areas on your body.

Radiofrequency body sculpting

Radiofrequency body sculpting procedures use energy to create heat to get rid of fat cells. This type of procedure specifically goes after the water in fat cells, so it’s important to make sure you’re hydrated beforehand and drink plenty of water afterward.

Here at Natural Body Wellness Clinic, we use the following body sculpting treatments:

Exilis Ultra 360 – This treatment uses both ultrasound and radiofrequency technology to target and tone certain areas of your body.
Venus Concepts – Bipolar radio frequencies and magnetic pulses work together to safely contour your body with this treatment.

The other two main types of body sculpting use heat or cold to destroy fat.

Is body sculpting safe? Does it hurt?

Body sculpting is non-invasive and involves little to no pain. Side effects to body sculpting procedures are very minimal, usually consisting of minor pain, swelling, or a warm feeling on the treated area.

Still, it’s always a good idea to consider your health history before getting treatment. Our friendly, highly trained practitioners will discuss which procedure will be the best for you.

How is body sculpting different from liposuction?

So you know that body sculpting kills fat and helps shape and firm targeted areas of your body. But isn’t that what liposuction does? Sort of, but with a few key differences.

Liposuction uses a suction technique to remove fat from targeted areas. It is a surgical procedure that requires anesthesia and a longer recovery time (usually 1-2 months) than body sculpting. Associated risks include complications from anesthesia, bleeding, and uneven fat reduction.

Body sculpting has minimal side effects and because it is non-invasive, it allows you to get back to your normal routine immediately following treatment.

How long does a body sculpting treatment take?

Depending on the type of treatment, your body sculpting appointments may take anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour or more. You can usually plan on coming in for 4-8 appointments before the treatment is complete, and will usually see full results over the next 3-4 months.

Appointments will usually be scheduled 7-14 days apart to ensure optimal results.
