What Is Non-Surgical Body Contouring?

If your gym appointment or even your personal training appointments aren’t getting you the fat burning results you’ve been hoping for, there is an appointment that you can make that will give you those results. At Glow Medispa in Seattle, WA, we offer different types of body contouring treatments that will get rid of your stubborn fat for good, no gym needed.

What Is Non-Surgical Body Contouring?

Non-surgical body contouring is a way to contour your body, shrink your measurements, and lose your stubborn fat all without undergoing the knife. These treatments provide a non-invasive solution for those who want to get rid of their stubborn fat but can’t reach their goals through diet and fitness efforts alone. At Glow Medispa, we offer three different effective treatments that will contour your body and help you reach all of your goals.

Vanquish ME

Vanquish ME is an FDA-approved, clinically proven treatment that utilizes touch-less radiofrequency technology to destroy fat cells.

How Does It Work?

Most noninvasive fat burning treatments require that the treatment device touch the patient’s body, however, Vanquish ME is the first treatment that uses touch-less technology to destroy fat. During the treatment, patients lie down and relax as radiofrequency waves target the treatment area, heat the fat cells, and destroy them.

When Will I See Results?

You will notice a change in the area treated within four to six weeks of treatment. Once the fat cells are destroyed through the radiofrequency waves, the body gradually removes them in the weeks following treatment.

Is Fat Loss Permanent?

Once targeted and destroyed, the fat cells in the treatment area die and will be permanently removed from the body. This treatment does not prevent the future development of fat cells caused by weight gain, but it will target and destroy the preexisting fat cells. Patients are responsible for maintaining their Vanquish ME results by following a healthy lifestyle that incorporates regular exercise and a healthy diet.

What Areas Does It Treat?

Vanquish ME can target, spot-treat, and remove fat cells from many areas of the body. These areas include but are not limited to the:

  • Abdomen
  • Belly fat
  • Inner and outer thighs
  • Flanks
  • Love handles

EMSCULPT NEO

EMSCULPT NEO is another non-invasive body-contouring treatment that helps patients reach their body goals. EMSCULPT NEO does what other fat-burning treatments cannot. Not only can it destroy fat cells, but it can tone and build muscle simultaneously. This treatment utilizes radiofrequency waves to target and destroys fat cells, and it also uses a high-intensity electromagnetic field to eliminate fat.

How Does It Work?

The device uses radiofrequency waves to target the fat cells and heat them to a temperature that results in their ultimate destruction. Once the fat cells are heated, they die and the body removes them gradually over time. The device also uses HIFEM (high-intensity electromagnetic field) to stimulate the muscles and cause them to contract.

When you work out, your brain is responsible for your muscle contractions. This treatment creates a degree and strength of muscle contraction that the brain is not capable of doing itself. The result is a muscle-building phenomenon that comes without requiring that you lift a single dumbbell. A thirty-minute session will work your muscles in a way that an average workout is simply unable to.

What Areas Does It Treat?

This treatment is FDA-approved to treat stubborn fat in the abdomen, arms, calves, thighs, and buttocks.

What Kind of Results Can I Expect?

Most fat reduction treatments result in a 20% reduction of fat in the area treated, yet EMSCULPT NEO surpasses those results and provide patients with a 30% reduction of fat in the treatment area. Results begin to appear four weeks post-treatment. In regards to muscle building, this treatment can result in a 25% increase in muscle mass, which no other treatment has yet been able to accomplish.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

The best results tend to appear on those who undergo four treatment sessions. However, during your initial consultation, we will discuss your concerns and help develop a treatment plan that is customized to your needs.

EMSCULPT

EMSCULPT is a similar body contouring treatment that targets stubborn fat through the use of high-intensity, electromagnetic technology. This treatment specifically targets and destroys fat cells while simultaneously toning and contouring the buttocks and abdomen. Not only does it destroy fat, but it increases muscle mass by forcing superficial muscle contractions and creating toned muscles.

Am I a Candidate for Non-Surgical Body Contouring?

If you are a healthy adult at or near your goal weight but struggle with areas of stubborn fat that are resistant to your diet and fitness efforts, you are most likely a candidate for one of these effective treatments. During an initial consultation, our experts will help determine which of these treatments is right for you.
