WHAT IS BODY CONTOURING, AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

Have you ever wished for a less complicated way to contour and shape your body? Body contouring may be the perfect solution for you. By using non-invasive medical treatments, body contouring can help reshape problem areas such as the abdomen, buttocks, legs, and arms with minimal downtime or risk. Let us inform you about body contouring, how it works, and the advantages of having this treatment with us at Dundee Dermatology in West Dundee, IL.

 

What Is Body Contouring?

Body contouring refers to various cosmetic treatments designed to reshape and sculpt the body without the need for surgery. These procedures typically use non-invasive or minimally invasive techniques to target and reduce unwanted fat, tighten skin, and improve the body’s overall appearance.

 

Non-surgical body contouring treatments are typically used for individuals with localized areas of unwanted fat, loose skin, or cellulite resistant to diet and exercise. They are not intended as a weight loss solution but as a way to enhance body shape and appearance.

 

How Does Body Contouring Work?

Non-surgical body contouring treatments utilize various technologies such as radiofrequency energy, laser energy, ultrasound, cryolipolysis (fat freezing), or injectables to achieve their effects. These treatments are performed on the surface of the skin, typically without the need for incisions or anesthesia, and have little to no downtime compared to surgical options.

 

What Are the Benefits of Body Contouring?

Body contouring has become an increasingly popular option for individuals looking to enhance their physical appearance. This cosmetic procedure encompasses a range of techniques that target specific body areas to sculpt and contour the shape.

 

One of the primary benefits of body contouring is the ability to achieve a more toned and defined physique without surgery. These methods offer a comfortable and convenient approach to achieving a desired body shape. Among the benefits of body contouring is improved body contour, reduced fat volume, cellulite reduction, and improvement in skin texture.

 

What Are the Different Types of Body Contouring We Provide?

Body contouring refers to several cosmetic procedures designed to improve the appearance of one’s physique by removing excess fat, tightening loose skin, and enhancing muscle tone. We offer two highly effective body contouring treatments: EmSculpt and EmSculpt NEO.

 

EmSculpt

Emsculpt is a non-surgical body contouring treatment that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to stimulate muscle contractions and promote muscle building while reducing fat in targeted areas. It is an FDA-approved non-invasive procedure for improving abdominal tone, strengthening abdominal muscles, and enhancing the buttocks.

During an Emsculpt treatment session, a device is applied to the target area, such as the abdomen or buttocks, which emits HIFEM energy. The HIFEM energy induces intense and rapid muscle contractions that are impossible through voluntary muscle contractions or exercise. These contractions stimulate muscle fibers to adapt and grow, increasing muscle mass, strength, and tone over time.

 

In addition to building muscle, Emsculpt can help reduce localized fat pockets in the treated area. The intense muscle contractions generated by the HIFEM technology increase the metabolic rate in the targeted area, leading to fat cell disruption and subsequent fat reduction. The destroyed fat cells are naturally eliminated from the body through their normal processes.

 

EmSculpt NEO

EmSculpt Neo is a non-surgical body contouring treatment that combines two technologies, radiofrequency (RF) and high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM), to simultaneously build muscle and reduce fat in targeted areas of the body. It is an advanced version of the original Emsculpt treatment using only HIFEM technology.

The RF technology in EmSculpt Neo delivers controlled heat to the targeted area, raising the temperature of the tissues and promoting collagen production, which can help with skin tightening and overall skin quality improvement. The HIFEM technology induces rapid and intense muscle contractions, leading to muscle strengthening, toning, and growth. The combined effect of RF and HIFEM in EmSculpt Neo allows for simultaneous muscle building and fat reduction in the treated area.

 

EmSculpt Neo is typically performed as a series of treatment sessions, with each session lasting approximately 30 minutes. The exact number of recommended treatments may vary depending on individual goals and the treatment area. EmSculpt Neo is FDA-approved for improving muscle tone, strength, and contour and reducing localized pockets of fat in various areas of the body, such as the abdomen, buttocks, arms, and thighs.
