Does the SculpSure machine have to be a certain temperature for it to work?

The settings on SculpSure onliy indicate power and not temperature.  Technically, the machine will always reach the temperature that is effective for melting fat. The power setting only help 'get you there' faster or slower.  SO - if you have a lower setting, the machine may ramp up a bit slower, but more comfortably as it maintains you at the necessary temp to melt fat.  At a higher setting, it will do that much faster.  I try to get everyone to as high as possible to give them the best treatment possible, and I've been at it since the beginning being one of the first to have the machine in New Jersey!

Thank you for your question. SculpSure uses a special laser to heat and destroy unwanted fat. While the laser does heat the subcutaneous fat, the device counteracts this by using Contact Cooling technology to prevent damage to the skin and keep you the patient comfortable. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon to learn more about the procedure and your candidacy.
Best wishes,

There are no specific temperature settings with SculpSure.  The energy delivered by the machine can be adjusted based on on well the patient is tolerating the heat.  Some people are able to tolerate the highest settings and others can only tolerate the lowest.
