What is Permanent Fat Removal
Sometimes, no matter how much we work out or eat right, stubborn excess fat just won’t go away. Permanent fat removal is, as its name suggests, a solution that makes that fat disappear for good. Additionally, now that the FDA has approved certain fat removal options, this procedure is more appealing than ever!
One preferred permanent fat removal process is done through UltraShape. Ultrashape is a medically-approved therapy that can help you manage trouble spots like love handles, back fat, flabby arms, belly fat, and other areas for body contouring.
How Does it Work?
During an UltraShape procedure, a certified technician uses an ultrasound device to identify and destroy fat cells. This is done without any harm to the skin, blood vessels, or connective surrounding tissues at the site. It’s the first and only non-invasive procedure that destroys fat cells using targeted, pulsed ultrasound energy.
Who is a Good Candidate for Permanent Fat Removal?
While UltraShape is not a treatment for weight loss and will not cure obesity, the procedure can provide noticeable results for people with a BMI under 30 who are otherwise healthy. The procedure is for targeted “trouble spots,” and is not a substitute for liposuction. The treatment is for both men and women.
What Permanent Fat Removal Can—And Can’t—Do
UltraShape has provided noticeable results for candidates looking to remove excess fat for specific areas on their bodies. Most results are measured in centimeters (not inches), rather than pounds. The average UltraShape user loses 2.5 centimeters after the initial treatment. Additional treatments may bring fat reduction up to 3-5 centimeters.
While the results will be less dramatic than liposuction, UltraShape can make a serious improvement on areas where stubborn fat will not go away with diet and exercise. It can mean a difference in a dress size or jean size and can be the start of maintaining healthy lifestyle choices.
Side Effects
Incredibly, there is no downtime associated with UltraShape. Some users will experience bruising and pain, but this is on the rarer side and most will experience almost no discomfort. And, because ultrasound is used, there is no hot or cold sensation to the skin during the procedure. UltraShape is nonsurgical, so no numbing is required, and the procedure does not need incisions. Patients can return to their usual daily activities immediately.
