Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
How does the SculpSure applicator work?
SculpSure Does Not Burn the Skin
Feb 15, 2016
SculpSure has 4 applicators that can be used independently to treat multiple areas. These applicators are attached and secured on to treatment areas with straps. Direct contact with the skin allows the applicators to fire a laser approximately 1.5 cm deep targeting subcutaneous fat while cooling the skin. Sculpsure cycles between cooling and heating phases throughout the 25 minute treatment, making the procedure safe for the skin while effectively melting up to 25% of fat in the treatment...
SculpSure: Does this procedure take the place of a Tummy Tuck?
SculpSure or Tummy Tuck
Feb 15, 2016
The short answer is no, Sculpsure does not replace a Tummy Tuck. A Tummy Tuck serves to remove extra skin and fat while tightening the abdominal muscles that stretch during pregnancy. Although a scar is required at the level of a c-section scar, Tummy tuck surgery can produce dramatic and impressive results. On the other hand, SculpSure is a non-invasive, scar-free, recovery-free 25 minute procedure that helps melt fat only and does nothing to tighten the abdominal muscles or remove extra...
Does SculpSure damage muscle? Can it be used for the upper back?
SculpSure Targets Fat
Feb 10, 2016
Like
many devices, Sculpsure is often times used off label. Currently,
SculpSure is FDA approved to treat the abdomen and flanks, however, off label,
I have seen great results in patients who have had treatment to the upper
back and bra fat. SculpSure penetrates up to 1.5 cm deep at a wavelength of
1060 nm. This wavelength was chosen to destroy fat cells without damaging
surrounding tissues. Unlike other noninvasive body contouring devices,
there is no post-procedure pain, numbness,...
What can I expect from my first SculpSure treatment?
Pain Free
Feb 4, 2016
It
is natural for patients to be concerned with pain during and after their
procedure. One of the major benefits of SculpSure over the other
non-invasive body contouring procedures is that it is pain free. In fact
the ideal sensation that patients should feel during a treatment is mild
tingling. During a SculpSure treatment, the sculpting applicators are placed
exactly on top of problem areas and secured in place with straps. Once the
treatment starts, patients will feel gradual heating in...
Who is the ideal candidate for Sculpsure?
Ideal Candidates
Feb 4, 2016
SculpSure
is the first FDA-cleared laser treatment for completely non-invasive fat
reduction. Ideal candidates should be within 10-20 pounds of their ideal weight
and want to target fat that is resistant to diet and exercise. Our best
patients are those who live an active, healthy life style and either need help
with reducing fat in problem areas or who need help to jump-start
their fat loss goals. During consultations with my patients, we discuss
short term and long term goals and overall...
Fat Transfer for Under Eye Hollows
Fat Transfer Under Eyes
May 19, 2015
Fat transfer to
the under eye area is a safe, effective, semi-permanent solution for
hollowing under the eyes, cheeks, nasolabial folds, and lips. Fat
transfer to these areas will not only lift the general facial
structure, but also improve the look of your skin, giving a more
youthful appearance. In addition to filling out wrinkles
in the face, highly purified fat
injections also enhance the blood circulation in the tissues. Facial fat
transfer is safe and there are no allergic...
Sagging skin after Smart Lipo. Should I be worried? How long does it take for skin to tighten
Sagging Skin After Smartlipo
Apr 22, 2015
Patients who have undergone liposuction in essence have decreased the
volume in that area. Therefore it is natural for there to be excess or
sagging skin. Skin, though, has an inherent elasticity that often times
tightens to reduce this sagging appearance all on its own.
However, one benefit of smartlipo is that it specifically addresses the
skin to further tighten it even more. This effect begins around the 3
month mark when the collagen fibers under the skin reorient and tighten...
Hello. I'm a 30 year old woman and I am considering lipo under my chin. Is smart lipo my best
Is Smartlipo My Best Option
Apr 1, 2015
Smartlipo
is very effective at targeting the small, fatty area under the chin.
The real advantage of Smartlipo over traditional liposuction is that
Smartlipo not only permanently melts and destroys the fat cells, but
that it specifically addresses skin tightening at the same time. By
boosting collagen production, Smartlipo patients have a tighter neck
with a better defined jaw line. Our patients have seen great results
with this procedure. I would seek a consultation with a...
Will cellulaze address dimply somewhat loose skin above my knees?
Will cellulaze address dimply somewhat loose skin above my knees?
Mar 27, 2015
Cellulaze for cellulite
is a great treatment for dimply, loose skin. The powerful laser used in
the treatment targets all three types of cellulite: bumps, dimples, and
cobblestone like skin. For dimply skin, the laser cuts the fibrous bands that pull

down against the skin thus releasing the dimples. The bands are melted,
so cellulite is unlikely to re-form in the
future. Cellulaze for cellulite also increases collagen production to
improve elasticity and firm the skin. I would...

Do I have enough fat for a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Do I have enough fat for Brazilian Butt Lift
Mar 11, 2015
In general, when
we perform a Brazilian Butt Lift, we re-contour the shape of the butt
by performing liposuction of the lower back, love handles, and thighs.
By reducing the surrounding volume, the butt takes better shape and
looks bigger already. Next, we take the fat and re-inject it into the
butt to augment the butt itself. Sometimes we even perform liposuction
to the abdomen to have more fat to re-inject into the butt. The end
result is a better shaped, larger butt. During a...
How to pay for a Mommy Makeover?
How to pay for mommy makeover
Mar 11, 2015
There are many payment
options that most plastic surgeons offer. We have several ways for our
patients to pay for a Mommy Makeover. You can pay the full amount with
a credit card, or set up a payment plan where a portion is put down up
front and the remainder is paid in monthly installments. We also offer
our patients the option to sign up for Care Credit, which is a credit card that is used for plastic surgery with different financing options that you can pay monthly. Each office...
Smart lipo or traditional lipo?
Smartlipo or traditional lipo
Mar 11, 2015
There are many differences between traditional liposuction and Smartlipo
Laser Liposuction. Traditional liposuction has been performed for
decades and has proven to be a safe and effective procedure when
performed by qualified physicians to remove large amounts of fat. This
procedure can sometimes be aggressive and require general anesthesia and
a longer recovery time. Alternatively, some patients with smaller
problem areas can benefit from Smartlipo. Smartlipo is an office based...
How can I increase the size of my buttocks without expensive butt lifts?
How can I increase the size of my buttocks without expensive butt lifts?
Mar 10, 2015
There are a few options that are available to enhance the size of your buttocks. A good diet, exercise, and strength training would be a great starting point. The Brazilian Butt Lift uses Autologous Fat Grafting (AFT) to move fat from unwanted problem areas to increase firmness and improve the contours of the buttocks by adding volume in the top and fullest section of the buttock to create a lifted look. For patients that lack enough donor fat to create the augmentation volume they desire,...
Is Smart Lipo safe? Am I a good candidate?
Is Smartlipo Safe?
Mar 6, 2015
That's a valid concern. I'm a Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon that performs both traditional liposuction and Smartlipo. Let me start by saying that Smartlipo is a very safe procedure. I participated in some of the early studies evaluating the safety of smartlipo and our conclusion was that smartlipo is at least as safe as regular liposuction, if not safer. In addition, since Smartlipo is a minimally invasive procedure, performed in the office under local anesthesia, it does not have...
Will Cellulaze help improve my posterior thighs?
Will Cellulaze help improve my posterior thighs?
Feb 5, 2015
Cellulaze is the only procedure that treats all 3 types of cellulite: bumps, dimples, and cobblestone textured skin. When
patients want to have better tone and definition in their legs, we
enlist the aid of our personal trainer to create an exercise regimen
that maximizes the results in those areas directly. In addition, when
patients have some degree of cellulite that is preventing them from having the legs they want, Cellulaze may be a great treatment option.This
minimally invasive...
