Hello, I had a Sculpsure treatment done on my flanks 2 days ago. During the procedure I felt nearly nothing. Also after the procedure I had absolutely not the feeling I had any sort of treatment done. Moreover, I had nil redness nor any swelling. Is this something you see w/ your patients as well? Thank you for your answer in advance!
Answer: No feeling of treatment during and post Sculpsure procedure Thank you.I had the procedure done myself a week ago. I certainly did feel the heat in my flank area alternated with the cooling aspect during the procedure. After the procedure there was mild discomfort for only a short period. I also did not have any redness or swelling in the areas treated. So far so good!!!Good luck!!Thank you

Answer: SculpSure Thank you for your question. Your experience is typical of a SculpSure patient. The SculpSure procedure itself has no discomfort as the machine emits a pleasant cooling feeling, and there is virtually no downtime. I suggest that you discuss your recovery expectations with your board certified facial plastic surgeon.

Answer: Sculpsure, Coolsculpting, Vanquish, Thermi Sculpsure is a noninvasive 1060nm diode laser treatment that removes up to 25% of stubborn fat in the treated area in 25 minutes.It is FDA approved for the abdomen and flanks. It is safe if you get pregnant in the future.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 treatmentSince 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. Take care,Dr Schwartz Board Certified Plastic SurgeonDirector-Beverly Hills Breast and Body Institute

Answer: SculpSure and Pain During Treatment Some patients have very little pain during this Sculpsure treatment, the results will be noticeable in 6-12 weeks. Often people need more than one treatment to get further results but its nice because there is very little pain or inflammation. Best, Dr. Emer.
