I had SculpSure done on my lower abdomen, it has been over twelve weeks and no results, should I get a second treatment?

for getting better result with sculpsure you need at least 3 treatment.
of course your BMI is a big factor.
good luck and best of health

I recommend getting a follow-up with your Doctor. Non surgical options give only mild improvement compared to surgical lifting. Skin tightening can be done with a combination of vanquish, venus legacy, exilis, celllutone/Zwave. However for best results, a tummy tuck procedure can be combined with a high definition procedure at the same time. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like a VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

When treating a patient with SculpSure, we always recommend at least 2 treatments to the area for optimal results.  It is best if these treatments are done six weeks apart. You can expect to see your results 6-12 weeks after your final treatment. 
Even if you did not feel pain or heat during the treatment, you can still achieve desired results.

Thank you for your inquiry. The nurse who performed your treatment is right, it does take at least 2 sessions to see optimal results with SculpSure. The highest setting is 1.4, so it seems that you did get the most out of your initial treatment despite it feeling comfortable for you. Many patients do experience  a certain amount of discomfort, but everyone is different. I would recommend going back to take after photos and compare to your initial photos -- you may see an improvement there, although slight. But again, for best results, a second session is typically recommended.

Hi, It has been my experience that everyone needs more than one treatment and although
everyone is different and results vary the vast majority of patients need at least 2 or more
treatments. I am also concerned that you did not feel any heat, everyone does and it is
very odd that you did not feel some significant heat. I would bring this up with your provider
as this is highly unusual. Let us know how this turns out. 

Two treatments is the standard protocol for SculpSure. When you are having the treatment done, the medical provider should have you at zone 4, which is the fat destruction zone. There are multiple zones when using ScupSure. Zone 1 is a pleasant cool/cold feeling. Zone 2 is a gentle warming and cooling feeling. Zone 3 is a tingly feeling with short intervals of warmth and cooling. Zone 4 is a prickling, pinching, pressure, with longer peaks of moderate deep heat and cooling. You should never go beyond zone 4.

At an energy level of 1.4 you definitely should have felt warmth and at least feelings of tingling if not prickling, pinching, or pressure. Twelve weeks after treatment is when optimal results are seen. However, you may not see results after only one treatment.

I would recommend a second treatment. The medical provider should ensure that the applicators have proper contact with the skin and that you reach zone 4 during treatment.

Removing a little fat with Sculpsure should be a hone run.  Any body contouring treatment has to manage expectations.  I would expect that you would see results at 12 weeks.  I offer 2 treatments because I'm sure with two treatments in an area you should see a result and I didn't want to hear what you are saying now that you didn't see a result.  I would undergo the second treatment.  Cynosure talks about "treat to complete" but there is always a return on your investment and you expect results.  They are subtle but they have an 83% satisfaction so clearly it must work. Contrary to cool sculpting that can cause bruising, numbness, and takes twice the time to complete a treatment and can be painful during the treatment.  Let me know how you do after the second treatment.  It made a difference for me.

In the clinical trials of SculpSure, the successful patients did 2-3 treatments in the same area.
This is not a single treatment approach when one's diet and exercise level are kept the same (as they were in the clinical trial). So my recommendations would be to complete the treatment regime of 2-3 treatments. Of the patients who did 2-3 treatments in the trials, 90% were satisfied with the level of improvement.
We have had patients a few patients who had results from a single treatment, but all of them made the decision at the time of the treatment to go on an anti-inflammatory diet while they were healing, and lose 2+ lbs during the 6 week healing period. It appeared that the SculpSure targeted the weight loss to the abdomen.
However, many patients who do SculpSure are already their target weight, and they have a diet resistant (frequently hormonal) fat pad. For them, the recommendation is 2-3 treatments to achieve a result. (Make sure you are not inadvertently gaining a few lbs. This can hide any result.)

The first question is - "What to the photos show?" Sometimes it is hard to appreciate the difference unless you look at carefully taken before and after photos. Your Sculpsure provider should have started with photos, and repeat photos may demonstrate a significant change. 
In terms of a second or even third treatment, the only reason not to proceed is expense. Generally if there is enough of a fat problem to get treated, two treatments are in order. We usually plan for two treatments per area unless the fat is pretty minor. We give a significant per-treatment price break for multiple-treatment packages. 

Although you may not appreciate a reduction in fat, you likely have had a good result. I encourage you to treat to complete, which is 3 treatments for up to a 24% fat reduction per treatment in the area. The slimmer you are, the less obvious the results will be, but the same percent fat reduction applies. If you feel the area needs to be addressed, complete your treatment cycle. Good luck!
