The Science Behind SculpSure: Understanding How Laser Body Contouring Works

SculpSure body contouring is at the forefront of science. With this innovative procedure, you can step closer to achieving your figure goals — without any surgery. At Shaheen Vascular, we perform the SculpSure treatment for patients throughout Mountain View, CA. We welcome both new and returning patients to check out this advanced body contouring treatment. 

But what is SculpSure exactly, and how can it result in permanent fat loss? Here’s how the SculpSure treatment works. 

What Is SculpSure?

SculpSure body contouring provides a non-invasive way to reduce body fat in target areas through sophisticated laser technology. Your body’s fat cells have a certain temperature range that they can survive in. When these cells become heated or cooled to temperatures outside this range, they start to die. 

Fat cells can be stubborn and stop responding to diet and exercise, which is why many patients opt for SculpSure treatments. SculpSure uses laser technology to permanently break down tough fat cells. 

The lasers we use heat your fat cells beyond their survivable temperature threshold. This doesn’t cause you any discomfort, however; in fact, our patients describe the treatment as a gentle tingling and warming sensation. 

Once your fat cells have been effectively destroyed, your body begins to break down the cellular components and eliminate them from your system. Most of the fat cell material is processed as waste material since the cells are no longer alive. 

Why Not Just Diet?

SculpSure is a permanent fat removal procedure. Regular dieting and exercising don’t have the same effect on your body. When you eat in a calorie deficit and exercise regularly, your fat cells do start to shrink. However, this doesn’t reduce the total number of fat cells in your body. 

SculpSure permanently eliminates stubborn fat cells to help you achieve the physique you want. After completing treatment, you will have fewer fat cells than you started with.

SculpSure vs. CoolSculpting: What’s the Difference?

Many patients ask us which treatment is better: SculpSure vs. CoolSculpting. CoolSculpting uses different technology to destroy fat cells. When it comes to patient comfort and satisfaction, SculpSure wins the race. 

During CoolSculpting treatments, the device freezes your skin and the fat cells directly underneath it. This can cause an uncomfortable cooling sensation on the patient’s skin. SculpSure causes more of a gentle warming that feels relaxing for patients. This treatment is extremely well-tolerated and comforting. 

Beyond patient comfort, CoolSculpting has mixed results. Some patients don’t achieve the fat loss that they want with CoolSculpting. SculpSure, on the other hand, results in up to a 24% reduction in total fat cells in just one 25-minute treatment.

How Long Until You See SculpSure Results?

You are likely curious about how long it takes for you to see results after any body contouring treatment. SculpSure results take six to 12 weeks to fully show its effects. This is because your body needs time to break down the fat cells that were destroyed and eliminate them from your system. 

While these results are not instant, they are permanent. With other fat-loss procedures, you might have to go through additional uncomfortable treatments or surgery. SculpSure can deliver the body contouring results you’re looking for — safely and permanently.

The Benefits of Using SculpSure for Fat Loss

SculpSure body contouring treatments have unique advantages over other fat-loss treatments. Consider these benefits of opting for this innovative, effective procedure: 

Fast Appointments

Most patients are surprised when they hear that SculpSure appointments only last for 25 minutes. In just under half an hour, you can start targeting your body’s most stubborn fat cells. This is the ideal body contouring procedure for patients with busy schedules and full lives. 

Comfortable Treatments

You won’t be poked, prodded, or otherwise made to feel uncomfortable at our office. We prioritize your comfort above all. 

As you let the laser work its magic on your fat cells, you can lie back, read a book, scroll social media, or do any other relaxing activity. Some patients use this as their “me time” — self-care comes in many forms.

Non-Surgical Body Contouring

Surgery can be time-consuming, expensive, and uncomfortable for patients. We offer SculpSure as a non-surgical alternative to those types of fat-loss procedures. 

With SculpSure, there is no downtime, no recovery period, and no general anesthesia. Your experience will be simple and easy — you come in for your appointment, and you leave only about 30 minutes later. 

High-Tech Body Sculpting

The laser technology we use during SculpSure treatments reflects how far science has come. In the past, if a patient wanted to lose fat, they either had to try surgery or go on a strict diet. Now, you can get SculpSure treatments and permanently remove stubborn body fat — all while sitting back and relaxing. 

Lasers are becoming more popular as medical treatment aids. They are precise and deliver just the right amount of heat to the targeted treatment areas. SculpSure is an ideal treatment for those who want to use this innovative technology to effectively get rid of their body fat. 

No Downtime

Instead of waiting around our office for hours after your treatment session, you can simply leave once the treatment is over. SculpSure requires no downtime afterward. There are also no movement restrictions once you leave — you can go right back to running errands, taking care of your children, or keeping up with your regular fitness routine.
