I had a sculpsure treatment on my inner thighs yesterday. I felt nothing at all during the procedure. Just wondering if this means the technician did sonething incorrectly. I have been reading about the procedure and most people say that inner thighs are excruciating. I felt nothing during procedure nor anything today. The belt was not strapped super tightly ...is it supposed to be? I don’t want to go in fir a second treatment if this is a fraud. Also, is sculpsure the best procedure for me?

Answer: Sculpsure on inner thighs Hi there and thank you for your question. The inner thighs are often more sensitive than other areas treating with Sculpsure because of thinner skin and a lot of nerves in the area. Having said that, some patients are extremely tolerant of any treatments and this is the reason why there is so much disparity between what one person feels and another person feels during their treatment. I've had many patients who I thought would be sensitive to a particular area and they barely felt anything at all. Heat tolerance is so variable from person to person. That is why there are adjustments to be made during the treatment based on your described "zone". These settings should be adjusted by your practitioner during your Sculpsure treatment to get optimal fat cell rupture and destruction. Hope this helps and please do go back for your next treatment!

Answer: Sculpsure settings If you felt no deep heating cycles then it is possible that the settings were not increased appropriately after the warm up phase. Call and have the clinician review your chart. If you were increased to 1.4 and had no deep warming than you must have an amazing pain tolerance and the treatment should work. I also find that the more paddles I place together the better the result. In other words instead of placing 2 on each thigh, try 4 from the inner thigh towards the posterior thigh of each leg. As there is feathering beyond each paddle there may be synergy with 4 grouped together, although no study has been done comparing the 2 options. The FDA has approved the use of Sculpsure on the thighs, to counter the statement earlier.
