The diarrhea was somewhat oily, could that be my body eliminating fat? Or something I ate after procedure?
Answer: Sculpsure Results & Bowel Movements--Add Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra, VASER This is unlikely due to your Sculpsure treatment. Keep in mind, it takes 3-6 months for final results with Sculpsure. You will have swelling, which can be asymmetrical. I recommend lymphatic massage along with your compression to decrease swelling. A combination of treatments is needed for best results with Sculpsure. I recommend combining Sculpsure with Vanquish and Venus Legacy/Exilis Ultra treatments. However, a VASER hi definition procedure would give you the best results with fat removal and shaping for the thighs but would require more downtime. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Diarrhea following SculpSure Hi and thank you for your question! The SculpSure laser targets and destroys the fat cells, and the release fat is collected by the lymphatic system and carried away and eventually redistributed in the body, removed via kidneys or sweating or burnt. It is highly unlikely for the fat to end up in the stool and presence of fat in stool is often and indicator of reduce absorption of dietary fat. Hence your diarrhea is most likely incidental and not related to SculpSure treatment. If in doubt, please do a follow up with you physician. I hope it helps and good luck!

Answer: SculpSure Thank you for your question. I suggest that you consult with your board certified facial plastic surgeon. There are no side effects and no downtime associated with SculpSure. You may try massaging your treated area for 15 minutes.

Answer: Diarrhea and Sculpsure Diarrhea should not be a complication or sequelae following a sculpsure treatment. This laser focuses on the subcutaneous tissue and destroys fat cell membranes. The destroyed fat cells are the picked up by the lymphatics and excreted. Most likely, the diarrhea is coincidental to your treatment and possibly the flu. Please consult with your doctor if this persists.

Answer: Side Effects from Sculpsure Sculpsure is a laser treatment that destroys fat cells only a few millimeters below the skins surface, it would be extremely unlikely to trigger the GI concerns you experienced. The fat reduction takes place over many weeks. This seems to be an unfortunate coincidence.
