Who Benefits from Focused Ultrasound Body Contouring?
These treatments have been designed for men and women who are of average weight or moderately overweight and are not interested in a surgical procedure. It is not intended for weight loss, but rather for body contouring.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
The abdomen, flanks (love handles), thighs (saddle bags), and back can be treated.
What Happens to the Fat?
When the fat cells are disrupted, the released triglycerides are processed by the body’s natural physiological and metabolic pathways in the liver in the same way that fat is processed during weight loss. The liver does not distinguish between fat coming from the focused ultrasound body contouring treatment and fat originating from consumed food. Controlled clinical studies have shown that the released triglycerides do not accumulate in the blood or liver.
What Happens After Treatment?
Since there is no recuperation period, patients can return to their normal routine but are advised to continue with a healthy lifestyle by exercising regularly and maintaining a healthy diet.
