Body Contouring Q & A
What is body contouring?
Body contouring is the general name given to treatments designed to melt away targeted areas of fat without the need for any invasive procedures. These treatments are ideal for people who have a few areas of stubborn fat that prevent them from reaching their body goals.
Body contouring is noninvasive and requires no recovery time. You can get your treatment, then continue with your daily activities immediately afterward as your body gets to work processing the contouring effects of your procedure.
SINY® Dermatology offers two types of body contouring: EMSCULPT® and CoolSculpting®.
What is EMSCULPT?
EMSCULPT is a treatment that removes unwanted fat and tones the targeted area. It triggers deep contractions in the muscles of the targeted area.
These extreme contractions force your body to remodel the muscular structures in the area, leading to a reduction of fat cells and increased muscular tone. In fact, a single EMSCULPT session challenges your muscles in the same way doing thousands of squats or situps would.
EMSCULPT treatments are ideal for the abdomen and buttocks. You may choose a single treatment or multiple sessions to acheive your body goals. Each EMSCULPT session usually lasts about 30 minutes.
What is CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting is a body-contouring treatment that leverages the power of cold to help you reach your body goals. It’s a fast, effective treatment that literally freezes away fat cells.
During CoolSculpting, your SINY® Dermatology board-certified body-contouring practitioner moves the CoolSculpting device over the areas of fat you want removed. The device safely reaches through your skin into your fat cells, delivering sufficient cold to freeze those cells.
This destroys the fat cells and, over the coming weeks, your body flushes them out via your lymphatic system. The result is an increasingly trim frame in the weeks after your treatment.
Most CoolSculpting treatments take around 45 minutes or less. One treatment may deliver your desired results, or you can receive multiple treatments to help you get your ideal body.
Stubborn areas of fat don’t have to keep you from your ideal body. With noninvasive body-contouring treatments at SINY® Dermatology, you can unlock your best possible frame.
