Thank you for your question. SculpSure is non-invasive and non-surgical and risks are practically non-existent for good candidates. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon to determine if you are a good candidate.Best wishes,
Fortunately, heat-based treatments are not mutagenic, so there is zero risk of SculpSure causing cancer. It requires ionizing radiation, such as encountered in Xrays to cause genetic alterations,
There is no evidence that Sculpsure causes cancer. Keep in mind, a combination of treatments is needed for best results with Sculpsure. I recommend combining Sculpsure with Vanquish and Venus Legacy/Exilis Ultra treatments. A VASER hi definition procedure would give you the best results with fat removal but would require more downtime. Best, Dr. Emer
There have been no reports of cancer associated with sculpsure. The laser has been out only 2 years, so 5 year data is not known.
There is no risk of developing cancer from SculpSure. As the other doctors mentioned, the laser frequencies used is not the type of radiation that is associated with cancer. In fact, lasers are often used to treat certain types of cancer.
SculpSure uses heat to melt the fat cells in the targeted area, not radiation. The latter is what can cause a mutation in your cells. There is no risk of developing cancer from your SculpSure treatments. Hope this helps.
Sculpsure uses heat not any radiation. Radiation can cause generic changes in your cells. Therefore there are not any cancer risks with Sculpsure.
Hello and thank you for your question. SculpSure is FDA approved for treating five different areas of the body, and therefore has undergone significant testing and trials. However, as with any procedure, it is important to undergo a consultation with a trained and skilled clinician and review your medical history and discuss any concerns before beginning any treatment. All the best to you!
SculpSure laser technology was FDA approved 2 years ago for fat removal. This type of laser technology has been around for several years in other fields in medicine. Other lasers do not cause cancer. SculpSure bypasses the skin and nerves and targets only fat cells. The cells are destroyed and removed from the body through the lymphatics. There are other procedures that lead to cancer. One of those things are tanning beds. They will cause changes in the skin. People in their 20's who use tanning beds have a greater risk of skin cancer than those that never use tanning beds. Avoid cancer risk by living a healthy clean life , meaning wear sunscreen, exercise daily, eat non-processed food and be happy. Dr. Eros
There have been no reports of any type of cancer related to the use of SculpSure. It has only been on the market place for a couple of years, so time will tell.
The key to obtaining a good result with Sculpsure is to use the correct number of applicators. Every patient is different depending on their body type. For instance, larger body frames will require 4 applicators to cover an abdomen vs 2 applicators in a petite patient. The energy is the same per...
Back fat is typically more fibrous than fat located in other areas of the body. I have found this by doing numerous liposuctions of this area. Sculpsure is a noninvasive laser that dissolves 24% of fat in a given area. Given that this fat is more difficult to treat than than other areas, ...
Hi and thank you for your question! There is no reason why we can't treat an area with SculpSure for 5 sessions (as long as there is adequate fat), but we normally start by up to 3 sessions and decide on further treatments based on the initial response and the results of the 3 sessions...
Sculpsure works when there are areas of fat accumulation. If the area above the knee has localized deposits of fat, this can be treated. I would see an experienced doctor before proceeding with this area.- its less common that other areas. Please be realistic that only 24% of the fat will be...
SculpSure applied to the same location more than once can show even more results. However, You will need to wait approximately 6-12 weeks before having additional treatments. This allows sufficient time for the body to remove the treated dead fat cells. If you prematurely treat again to the...
Your experience is unusual. Like every treatment performed, something unusual can occur. It doesn't make sense that fat will recur assuming continued diet and exercise. It is possible that fat was dissolved unevenly and another treatment would be necessary. Please consult again with your doctor.
