Is SculpSure an option for the outer thighs (saddlebags)?
Doctor Answers 22
Treating your outer thighs with SculpSure can be an extremely effective non-surgical method for eliminating stubborn pockets of fat. It isn't FDA approved for this area so using it there is considered "off label" but I have had good results treating the outer thighs with SculpSure. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss. Best of luck.

SculpSure is very effective for treating the outer thighs. The key to success is in patient selection. If your outer thighs are dramatically disproportionate to the rest of your torso, liposuction may be a consideration. If, however, the amount of excess fat in this area is mild to moderate, SculpSure done in a series of 3-4 applications at three week intervals may be an effective non-invasive way to deal with the problem.

Yes, SculpSure can be used on the outer thighs. In consultation you can determine the right amount of applicators that would be needed per thigh. The SculpSure laser permanently destroys fat cells using heat, and loss of fat is seen quickly within 6 weeks with full results seen at 12 weeks. This is the time it takes for the body to absorb and eliminate the destroyed fat cells.
Many patients need just one treatment to get their desired results. 2 to 3 treatments maybe needed if further fat reduction is desired.

Yes. Despite not being FDA approved yet, the laser targets this fat very well.
Finally, make sure that you have a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.

The body contouring effects are seen in as quick as six weeks with final results at 12 weeks.
The results are permanent as long as you maintain your weight and health.
The laser targets and destroys the fat cells only which are then naturally removed from the body. Since the laser does not affect the skin or muscle it can be used on all skin colors and there has been no reported incidents of burns when treated by a properly trained physician. It is protective since it alternates heating and cooling.
It has four applicators that can be customized to treat the areas of stubborn fat.
If a second treatment is needed we wait at least six weeks and usually closer to 12.
There is no downtime and you can resume your normal activities right after the treatment. There may be some soreness in the area for a few days for which you can take ibuprofen or tylenol. A cold compress can also be used.
Sculpsure is not used for skin tightening however some of her patients have seen this. If more skin tightening is needed we have combined this with thermi or Ulthera for a complete treatment. Sculpsure is recommended for stubborn areas of fat that are not being lost by diet and exercise. It is not a weight loss treatment
Since I have both a coolsculpting and sculpsure I am working on protocols of utilizing both of these depending upon what areas need to be treated and the response to the treatment.
I have used sculpsure on other areas other than the abdomen with very good results.
I also use a Vectra 3D imaging system to try and show people what their treatment areas could look like.
Since Sculpsure outcomes can be based on technique and experience, please see a board certified plastic surgeon that specializes body contouring to see if Sculpsure or other treatments are available to meet your goals.
