One has to be patient and have realistic expectations following sculpsure treatments. It generally takes up to 3 months for the fat cells to be removed and to notice any changes. Photographs are a better means to see differences in some cases. Even though a patient does not see a big change, measurements are also helpful.
Thank you for your question. We find that the optimal SculpSure results come after three treatments, each 6-8 weeks apart. You will notice your significant improvement 6-8 weeks after your second treatment. I suggest you discuss your treatment plan and recovery expectations with your board certified facial plastic surgeon.Best wishes,
It can take up to 12 weeks to see the results from a SculpSure treatment and most people do require more than one treatment session to obtain the best result. It is normal that you would see no difference 2 weeks after treatment.
Keep in mind, it takes 3-6 months for final results with Sculpsure. You will have swelling. I recommend lymphatic massage along with your compression to decrease swelling. A combination of treatments is needed for best results with Sculpsure. I recommend combining Sculpsure with Vanquish and Venus Legacy/Exilis Ultra treatments. However, a VASER hi definition procedure would give you the best results with fat removal and shaping for the thighs but would require more downtime. Best, Dr. Emer
You will typically notice results 12 weeks after a treatment. However, make sure you are consistent with your treatments, depending on the amount of fat per area.
Typically it takes patients 12 weeks to see the results from 2 treatments of Sculpsure. Be patient with the process. Remember that you must "treat to complete" the procedure. Depending on how much fat reduction you are wanting, additional Sculpsure treatments may be necessary. Wait 12 weeks and review your before and after pictures at that time.
Patients typically start to see the results of their SculpSure treatment as soon as 6 weeks, with the full effect to be achieved at 12 weeks. I suggest allowing the full 3 months to pass before following up with your doctor about your results. For an average-sized area, multiple treatments may be necessary, which may increase the time it takes to see full results. It is important to refer back to photos and measurements to see the change that occurred because patients often do not notice the gradual changes in their own bodies. Also, remember that individual results may vary. Some patients may see results sooner than others.
Thank you for your question. I think first it is important to realize that not only are your final results seen after 12 weeks, but to also remember that you see your own body every single day. Slight or subtle improvements are much harder to see, however in my practice, when we have patients return for their 12 week post procedure pictures, lots of people do not see the change in their own body.. ..that is until we show them the mirrored image of the before and after pictures. My suggestion is that you be sure to go to your follow up appointment to see the before and after pictures side by side. Be patient and good luck!
SculpSure is a non invasive laser lipolysis treatment for areas of stubborn fat. Unlike liposuction, your body must rid the treated fat cells from your body through the lymphatic system. The fat is not removed from your body immediately after treatment. Due to this process it can take up to 12 weeks to see your results. After 12 weeks, follow up with your treatment provider to go over before and after pictures from your treatment.
Hello, for the optimal results you should give it the full 12 weeks. At that time you should go back to your doctor's office for some before and after photos. You may think there isn't a difference but when you see the photos most patient's do see it then. . Also, the more fat there is the more treatments you may need. Stay well hydrated and keep active to help the process.Good Luck
For the area that you describe, Sculpsure (2-3 treatments) should work very well. While there are more direct and invasive approaches such as liposuction, the risks and downtime of those are significant. Since you say you are in good shape and active, I would use something non-invasive such...
Diarrhea should not be a complication or sequelae following a sculpsure treatment. This laser focuses on the subcutaneous tissue and destroys fat cell membranes. The destroyed fat cells are the picked up by the lymphatics and excreted. Most likely, the diarrhea is coincidental to your treatment ...
Great question. Sculpsure is a non-invasive procedure that reduces about 24% of fat in about half an hour with gentle heating and cooling cycles. It is commonly performed using a spray oil called Lux lotion. The purpose of this oil is to provide better contact for the pods to the skin. The...
