Benefits of SculpSure in Jupiter FL

SculpSure may be a comfortable, quick, no-downtime, and noninvasive alternative to surgery, but does it really reduce stubborn fat? Board-certified by the American Osteopathic Board of Dermatology, Dr. Peter Vitulli scrutinizes the latest research and techniques to select only those safe technologies that are proven to work. Many A Center for Dermatology, Cosmetic and Laser Surgery patients have experienced the Benefits of SculpSure in Jupiter FL firsthand. These benefits were achieved without going under the scalpel or contending with stitches and long bed rest. Likewise, SculpSure patients were able to get results with relative ease after, in some cases, years of eating right and exercising didn’t make a noticeable difference in their love handles, saddlebags, turkey wattles, or other stubborn fatty pockets.

Not all fat is created equal

Localized, “pinchable” fat may develop throughout the body. Typical trouble areas include around the waist, belly, thighs, back, and underneath the chin. These fatty deposits never seem to go away, because their causes can’t be treated with a healthy diet and physical activity alone. It’s estimated that every decade, your metabolism slows by about 5%, so Father Time may be to blame. Falling estrogen levels as women enter menopause also alters how fat is distributed, especially around the middle and tummy. Stress and other lifestyle factors are also thought to influence “hunger” hormones and fat distribution. Altogether, these causes result in fat that resists traditional reduction methods like diet and exercise. This is where intervention from a specialty provider that you can trust comes into play. SculpSure refers to the “laser” services part of A Center for Dermatology’s name. SculpSure is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that uses laser technology. Here’s how it works:

There is power in the energy produced by a targeted beam of laser light. When delivered safely and precisely to trouble spots, the energy heats fat cells underneath the skin. Tissue outside of the treatment area isn’t affected.
The heat produced by SculpSure raises the temperature of targeted fat cells. This process damages the structural integrity of the treated cells.
In the months following treatment, your body’s lymphatic system safely processes and removes the damaged fat cells.
Enjoy results in as little as six weeks. Optimal results are noticeable within around 12 weeks.
SculpSure isn’t weight loss. Typically, the number of fat cells stored by your body doesn’t change. Weight loss causes fat cells to shrink but it doesn’t eliminate them the way SculpSure does. Once our laser successfully treats the fat, cells in that area can’t regenerate. Treated fat is gone for good.

There really isn’t a “catch.” Our patients love that the entire process is well-tolerated. You will feel a cold sensation before and during treatment because SculpSure is built with trademarked Contact Cooling technology for your comfort. As the laser cycles off and on to raise the fat cells’ temperatures, patients may experience a deep warm feeling or tingling. Each SculpSure treatment only takes about 30 minutes and, unlike more invasive treatments, you can get back to work, your family, or other activities immediately afterward. The number of sessions required is very patient-specific and depends on your goals and the area(s) to be treated.

Not all nonsurgical techniques are created equal

Practices tend to compare nonsurgical procedures to invasive alternatives, but SculpSure also sets itself apart from other noninvasive alternatives. As a “true” lunchtime procedure, up to 24 percent of fat cells are painlessly destroyed in as little as 25 minutes per treatment site. As an alternative to other non-surgical body contouring procedures that use controlled cooling to freeze fat and are generally not as well-tolerated nor as efficient and versatile in the areas they treat, SculpSure delivers precise laser energy to heat fat cells under the skin without damaging surface tissue. In fact, SculpSure has a more than 90% satisfaction rate, according to findings from multicenter studies presented at the 2015 Annual American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery Conference in Kissimmee.

And, while fat can’t return to the treated area, it’s important to know SculpSure isn’t a substitute for a reasonable diet and active lifestyle. It’s also not an alternative to invasive methods such as bariatric surgery for those patients who haven’t maintained a stable, healthy weight.
