There is a huge variability in the amount of pain people experience with SculpSure ranging from very mild discomfort to almost unbearable. The same person can experience different degrees of pain in different body parts and may have a completely different experience on the same body part with additional treatments. If the panels are sitting on bony areas there can be more pain, so it might be possible to slightly adjust the placement of the panels if you are still able to cover the desired treatment area. The fat destruction zone is 1.1 so it would be best not to go below that to make sure you get the best results. I would recommend taking 2 extra strength Tylenol prior to your next treatment.
It is fine to get the orthovisc injection after SculpSure. Orthovisc is not an anti-inflammatory and it stays local to the knee joint so there is no interaction.
Given that meloxicam is an anti-inflammatory medication and you do not want to inhibit the inflammatory response from the treatment, it would be recommended to avoid meloxicam for a period of time. This is not an exact science, but as a general rule I would recommend avoiding meloxicam until you no longer have any soreness from the area treated.
Yes, it would be fine to have SculpSure done 4 weeks prior to your hysterectomy. While you are healing from your surgery, you will start to see the benefit of your SculpSure treatment with your newly contoured arms! Good luck with everything!
You can absolutely do SculpSure if you have stretch marks. The stretch marks won't affect how well the treatment works, so you don't need to worry about that. Once the fat cells are destroyed, it's possible that you could have some looseness of the skin depending on the severity of the underlying stretching. This doesn't mean that you won't be overall pleased with the outcome, as the benefit of the contouring would probably outweigh a little bit of looseness.
