Can you use Sculpsure near the rib cage/bra line area? (photo)

Linda L Thank you for your questions and photographs.  An in person consultation is necessary to determine your best course of action.  Sculpsure is terrific procedure for this area.  The beauty of the treatment is it can be customized to select areas as well as large areas. We utilize the Pronox system to control comfort during the procedure.  Most will need two treatments per area for best success.

Hi and thank you for your question! While treating that area might be off-label (meaning that it was not specifically addressed in the studies submitted to FDA for evaluation and approval/clearance) as long as there is pinchable fat in that area, it can be treated with SculpSure. I hope it helps and good luck!

SculpSure can be performed near the ribs and this is not a problem.  The heat will affect the fat but not the skin or the bone.  

Hi Linda! You can absolutely get SculpSure in that area. The pain tolerance is different for every patient, we can adjust the settings as needed or we have laughing gas if needed. Even with diet and exercise, most people have stubborn pockets of fat that seem impossible to lose. SculpSure targets and permanently destroys these fat cells without surgery, downtime, redness or pain. SculpSure is the newest non-surgical 25 minute procedure that uses light-based technology to permanently destroy up to 24% of fat per treatment. Each treatment goes deeper into the fat layer for additive results. The laser uses heat at high temperatures to destroy fat and most patients do not experience pain during the treatment and the applicators can be adjusted if any discomfort is felt.
SculpSure can treat virtually any area you have excess fat. Most common areas are the stomach, hips, love handles, thighs, buttocks, upper arms, over knees and fat bulges over the bra.
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.

you will not have any problems treating bra fat with Sculpsure. it will not do any damage to the ribs etc. It will only reduce the fat. definitely need to plan 2 sessions, about 6 weeks apart.david berman md
