A TENS unit will not destroy any more fat than SculpSure alone given how is works. It also will not interfere with your results. Massaging the area after the procedure is important to getting the results you want and is encouraged. A full body massage may help you get quicker results as it improves the function of you lymphatic system and will help process those fat cells.
Cortisone injections when used for joint injections have little absorption outside the joint. This would little or no effect with a SculpSure treatment. Nor would SculpSure affect the effectiveness of the cortisone shot. If you are referring to giving cortisone at the treatment site or an Iv injection I would not recommend getting SculpSure done in that case. You may see a poorer response.
SculpSure will not affect your IVC filter or increase your risk of clotting. The heat from SculpSure does not penetrate deep enough to the vena cava.
This is an uncommon event and does happen. We reccommend drink plenty of water and massage the area twice daily. They will resolve over time and do not cause any long term issues.
Coolsculpt & Sculpsure produce similar results in terms to fat reduction. Coolsculpt has years of experience and results. Treatments using Coolsculpt take anywhere from 35- 60 mins. You can expect results in 6-12 weeks. It can be applied anywhere you can suction the target area, though this may be a limitation in certain areas. The noted down side with Coolsculpt is that many people have post-procedure pain and some even require medication for this. Sculpsure treatments take 25 min. Like Coolsculpt we see results in our clinic of 6-12 weeks. Sculpsure can treat anywhere you can fit the applicators. One advantage Sculpsure has is the results give a more contoured result where the treated area is smooth. SculpSure will give the patient some skin tightening. Reports of pain are far less common. The biggest down side to Sculpsure is that given it is newer technology we don't know its long term results. In summary they are fairly equivalent in results as well as cost. Both offer permanent fat elimination. They are both safe. Coolsculpt has treatment many and is well known. SculpSure offers faster treatments and some skin tightening.
