Winter is a great time to hide under bulky clothes, but all too soon the summer months are upon us, as are bathing suits. While diet and exercise can go a long way toward slimming down, you may still be fighting unwelcome bulges where you least want them, which is where our SculpSure treatments come in.
To help you greet the summer season with confidence, Dr. Scott Lafferty and our team offer SculpSure body-contouring treatments, which destroy up to 24% of fat cells in your target areas.
While reshaping your body without undergoing painful surgery like liposuction may sound too good to be true, the fact is that SculpSure works. Here’s how.
One of the primary benefits of SculpSure is that we can do something that you can’t, no matter how hard you try — target specific areas of fat.
Both men and women are prone to carry excess fat in their abdomens, which is one of the key areas when you’re trying to get ready for swimsuit season. Women are also biologically wired to carry excess fat around their thighs, hips, and buttocks.
If you try to target these areas through diet and exercise, which is also called “spot reduction,” you’re waging an unwinnable battle. In fact, studies show that spot reduction is ineffective, as your body chooses where it loses weight when you diet and exercise, and it may not be in the areas you want.
Outside of physiology, you may also be dealing with genetics and other forces like hormonal imbalances that favor more fat in certain areas.
With SculpSure, we work around these powerful forces by targeting and destroying the fat directly.
Another great benefit of our SculpSure system is that we can permanently reduce the number of fat cells in your treatment areas (up to 24%) and they’re gone for good. As an adult, you carry a steady number of fat cells — when you gain or lose weight, your existing fat cells expand and shrink, respectively.
With SculpSure, we eliminate some of your fat cells, and they don’t regenerate. This isn’t to say that you can’t still gain fat, as your existing fat cells can still expand, so it’s important that you eat healthy and exercise to maintain your results.
Two final benefits of SculpSure are that the treatments are noninvasive and incredibly easy. Once we determine which areas you’d like to target, all you need to do is sit back and relax while we deliver heating energy into your tissue without harming the surface area of your skin.
Our FDA-cleared SculpSure treatments typically last only 25 minutes each, and there’s no downtime afterward, which means you can come in on your lunch break.
Most of our patients benefit from a series of SculpSure treatments (2-5 depending upon your goals), and we space these treatments out to give your body time to flush out the destroyed fat cells.
If you’d like to be ready to tock your swimming suit when summer rolls around, now’s the time to begin your SculpSure treatments. Simply contact our office in Bentonville, Arkansas, to get started.
