Super pleased with my first sculpsure treatment to the ab areas and the flanks. My provider advised me to get my 2nd treatment to the same area after 6 weeks. Everything I read says to wait 3-5 months. Are there any negatives to 6? If lingering original treated fat cells are left --I don't want to waist the Sculpsure laser light hitting those again. I want new cells to be disrupted and want to get the same great results as 1st treatment. Has the retreatment protocol has been revised to 6 weeks?
Answer: Timing for repeat Sculpsure treatment With Sculpsure patients will see initial results at around 6 weeks after treatment and optimal results at 12 weeks after treatment. If you are planning to treat the same area, I would wait a minimum of 6 weeks and ideally 12 weeks. The reason is that at 6 weeks there will still be improvement that will occur. It may be that you won't need a second treatment if you wait the full 12 weeks for the results. If you are treating different areas, Sculpsure can be performed immediately after treating the first area.

Answer: SculpSure Thank you for your question. You and your board certified facial plastic surgeon should develop a treatment plan and only alter it based upon your recovery progress. Many patients continue to see improvement in fat reduction up to 12 weeks, which is why what you are reading may indicate 3-5 months. Each patient is different. Best wishes,

Answer: Second Sculpsure Treatment Timing? I encourage patients to wait 12 weeks for the greatest degree of predictability. As others have mentioned, you certainly will see some degree of change by 6 weeks, but these are still early days in the treatment cycle of Sculpsure.

Answer: When can i do another Sculpsure treatment We recommend that our patientes can repeat a Sculpsure treatment as early as 6 weeks but as late as 12 weeks after the previous treatment. This is because at 6 weeks the body had had enough time to clear the majority of dead fat cells but there is still some healing and results that you will see through the 12 week/3 month mark. So if you are close to the results you are seeking, hold off and you may see a small bit more, but if you are far off from the results that you want then go ahead and treat sooner rather than later. There will be minimal loos of the treatment because Sculpsure targets fat cells and not necessarily the inflammatory and healing tissue after those fat cells are destroyed.

Answer: Timing for second Sculpsure treatment. A second SculpSure treatment can be performed as early as six weeks following a first treatment. However, if one had some swelling after the first treatment, it may be wise to wait three months to allow the swelling to fully subside. There is no good data with regards to this but one would expect a more efficient treatment at three months versus six weeks.
