Thank you for your question. Ultrashape uses ultrasound technology to destroy subcutaneous fat. We only advise against the treatment for patients who are currently pregnant, those who have a history of liver disease or liver dysfunction, and patients who have a pacemaker/defibrillator or other metal hardware near the treatment area. Most patients can benefit from Ultrashape, especially to treat areas of stubborn fat that have shown to be resistant to diet and exercise. There is no pain during or following treatment. For best results, we recommend increased diet and exercise the 48 hours immediately following treatment, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle between treatments. Consult with a provider experienced in Ultrashape to discuss how the procedure would work for you.
