Which noninvasive procedure would help minimize the appearance of banana rolls? (photos)

Question

I’m not sure if I have a problem with excess skin or too much fat but from what I see in the mirror it looks like banana rolls. I don’t want to go down an invasive or surgical route, so what would be my best options? Is it going to be coolsculpting/ trusculpt?

Amy Burton, MD · Answer

TruSculpt iD is an FDA-approved non-invasive body contouring treatment that uses radiofrequency technology to reduce fat in targeted areas. While it's primarily designed for reducing fat in common trouble spots like the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and arms, and banana rolls.
Banana rolls refer to the area of fat beneath the buttocks. TruSculpt iD may be effective in reducing fat in this area for some people, but it's essential to have realistic expectations and consult with a qualified healthcare provider to determine the best approach for your specific needs.

Melissa M. Chan, MD · Answer

One of the most popular non-surgical fat removal now is the TruSculpt iD. Older technologies uses cold but TruSculpt iD uses heat. The radiofrequency bursts the adipose cells (fat cells) which would later be excreted through the lymphatic system. This procedure is safe and can remove on average of 24% of the fat.
