Who Is a Candidate for SculpSure?
The best candidates for SculpSure™ treatment are people near their ideal body weight that have unwanted fat around the abdomen and/or love handles (flanks).
How It Works
The SculpSure San Francisco device applies laser light to the specific area of skin, heating the underlying fat. The heat causes the fat cells to be destroyed in that area, resulting in an improved body contour. The treatment can take as little as 25 minutes.
Take Advantage of the Heat That Shrinks Fat Cells
The laser that’s used in a SculpSure treatment causes a process that’s called apoptosis, which gently heats up fat cells and shrinks them so they can be expelled through the body’s lymphatic system as waste. In the weeks after your treatment, you’ll see a permanent reduction in those persistent, unwanted pockets of body fat.
SculpSure FAQ
No, SculpSure™ is not painful. When the patient experiences the treatment, they feel the warmth of the laser as it heats the fat tissue, interspersed with cooling. The temperature is low enough to make the procedure tolerable for almost any individual.
Generally, SculpSure San Francisco treatments noticeably reduce about 20-25% of the fat cells in the treated areas. For additional fat reduction, you may schedule a repeat procedure at least 12 weeks after the first treatment.
Yes, SculpSure San Francisco is safe, as shown by the FDA approval process. The laser treatment is non-invasive, meaning that it does not have the same risk of complications as liposuction or gastric bypass procedures. With thorough experience in non-invasive weight loss, Dr. Echavez personally completes a consultation with you prior to performing all SculpSure San Francisco procedures to make sure you are a good candidate for the treatment.
Most patients will see improvement after one session with SculpSure San Francisco; however, if you still want additional fat reduced after your initial treatment, schedule a consultation with Dr. Echavez to determine the best path for success in your body contouring goals.
No. While SculpSure™ helps to target problem areas, it should only be used as a contouring and shaping procedure. Laser treatment is suitable for individuals who are close to their goal weight, not individuals who have significant weight problems. For the best results, combine the treatment with regular exercise and a well-balanced diet.
