Vancouver body contouring fat pocket treatment consultation in Surrey

Surrey body contouring: fat removal without surgery

SOLVES:

  • Small pockets of fat
  • Stubborn fat bulges

Get rid of unwanted fat with non-surgical body sculpting

Until recently, the only ways to get rid of excess fat were diet, exercise and surgical liposuction or gastric bypasses. While we’d always recommend a healthy diet and exercise, these don’t always solve all fat issues.

Non-surgical body contouring is a modern solution to the problem of ‘stubborn fat.’ This type of treatment works best on small pockets of fat. Our proven technologies can remove up to 27% of fat in a given treatment area to solve belly fat, saddlebag fat, bra bulges, chin fat, thigh fat and more.

Colloquially, people refer to these procedures as “laser fat removal.” Though, actual laser light is not used with our technologies.

Why get body contouring when I could just diet and exercise?

Original weight

  • You are born with a set number of fat cells

Weight loss

  • Fat cells shrink
  • Fat cells aren’t removed
  • They can expand again

Fat removal

  • Gets rid of fat cells altogether
  • They can continue to shrink and expand, but there will be fewer of them

Each body contouring technology works in a unique way. In general, however, the key is that they remove fat cells.

We are each born with a certain number of fat cells. While this can change with age, it is mostly determined by genetics.

Our fat cells expand and shrink when we gain or lose weight.

By contrast, non-surgical fat removal gets rid of fat cells altogether. This leaves you with fewer cells that can expand in the first place.

This is why fat removal is permanent on the fat cells it treats. It is not the same as weight loss.

Is non-surgical body contouring better than surgery?

Non-surgical body contouring is ideal for small bulges of fat. This type of fat treatment can remove up to 27% of fat cells in a given area. The more treatments a patient gets (with the approval of a doctor), the more improvement they are likely to see.

There are very few side effects, and little to no downtime with non-surgical options to remove unwanted fat.

Some people require more advanced fat removal, which requires surgery.

However, invasive options can come with complications, not least of which are infections, excess skin and body deformities. Plus, they require time to heal.

After procedures like liposuction, non-surgical body contouring may still be recommended, to treat remaining fat pockets.

How many body contouring treatments will I need to achieve my ideal body shape?

The number of body contouring treatments you’ll need to achieve your ideal body shape can depend on:

  • The amount of fat you’re starting with
  • The amount of fat you’re hoping to remove
  • The treatment type being used to remove your fat cells
  • Your body’s response to treatments

Since each person will present a unique case, an in-person consultation is required to be able to answer this question.

We can say that CoolSculpting® has been shown to remove up to 27% of fat per treatment, while truSculpt ID has been shown to remove up to 24% of fat per treatment. Belkyra™ requires two to six sessions, and can not exceed six sessions.

Most people opt for 1 to 4 sessions or more.

What are the side effects of non-surgical body contouring?

Other complications are very rare.
