SculpSure

What Should I Expect after SculpSure?

In as little as six weeks, most patients start to notice a firmer, more attractive and contoured appearance in the area they have chosen to treat. In 12 weeks, results are even more visible. One treatment is often enough to reach most patients’ goals, but some schedule two and enhance their results. Treated fat cells are destroyed, flushed from the body and do not regenerate. This means results are permanent. However, a healthy diet and exercise helps you to avoid gaining weight, preventing new fat cells from forming.

What Does a SculpSure Treatment Consist of?

Adam and Eve in Scottsdale Sculpsure treatments are completed in our modern facility as an outpatient procedure. There is typically no downtime after the procedure, and pre-treatment instructions are minimal. While we generally recommend that all patients avoid sun exposure because of the damage it does to the skin, it is especially important to avoid sunburns prior to your Sculpsure treatment. We want you to be comfortable, and a sunburn makes it difficult to lie on your back or place the belt on the treatment area. If you use creams or lotions, avoid them the day of your treatment. Drink plenty of water in the week before your treatment, and visit us in comfortable clothing on the day of your procedure.

Your Sculpsure body contouring session will take about 25 minutes to complete. This does not include the 15 minutes we ask you to arrive ahead of your appointment – enough time for paperwork and last minute questions. Your aesthetician will make sure you are comfortably seated in a reclined position in the chair. Feel free to bring a book or take a nap. Your session will be comfortable, and only a slight tingling or warming sensation is typical. During the procedure, we will place some gel on the treatment area and then put the belt around you with the applicators carefully positioned on your abdomen or love handles. When the device is turned on, a laser delivers heat to your fat cells, deep under the skin, and destroys them. There is no damage to your skin. You will notice the machine cycling between heat (temperatures exceed 100 degrees) and a cooling sensation. This helps to keep you comfortable and protect your skin.

After your treatment, returning to normal activity is fine. You may notice some pinking of the skin, a little swelling or even a slightly bruised feeling. All are temporary. Massage the treated area lightly twice a day for five to ten minutes each time. Also, drink plenty of water as this helps your body flush out the dead fat cells.
