Body Contouring

What is Body Contouring?

Body contouring is a method for helping you achieve your ideal body profile when areas of fat are causing you to look and feel less attractive. Body contouring can be surgical or nonsurgical.

Nonsurgical options over some advantages over surgical ones, because they are safe, effective, and require little downtime or recovery.

Non-surgical body contouring is not for those who are obese or overweight. If you have a normal weight and have pockets of fat that are preventing you from achieving the overall look you desire, non-surgical body contouring may be right for you.

What Areas Can Be Helped with Non-Surgical Body Contouring?

There are some common areas where fat cells tend to congregate and form pockets that are hard to get rid of, even with diet and exercise. These include:

• Abdomen
• Love handles
• Flanks
• Hips
• Thighs

These areas can be improved on by using non-surgical body contouring treatments like CoolSculpting and TruSculpt3D, both of which are offered at Dr. G’s Weight Loss & Wellness.

What are CoolSculpting and TruSculpt3D?

CoolSculpting and TruSculptD are non-surgical body contouring methods. Fat reduction method help decrease pockets of fat by getting rid of collections of fat cells that are causing troublesome areas to form.

• CoolSculpting: CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared method and uses cryolipolysis, which utilizes cold temperatures to destroy fat cells without damaging skin or surrounding tissues.
• TruSculpt 3D: TruSculpt3D uses radiofrequency waves to create therapeutic levels of heat, which permanently destroys fat cells.

In both cases, destroyed cells are naturally eliminated from the body over time. These treatments typically last around 30-60 minutes and are done in the comfort of the office.

Results can be seen within a few weeks and can continue for several months. Because these treatments use the body’s natural ability to heal and eliminate dead cells, it may take some time to see full results. Both methods are safe and effective ways to achieve the body you’ve always wanted.
