What are the options when it comes to non-surgical fat reduction (besides not eating and working out) those are obvious and are already under way. What are the risks?
Answer: We have experience with Vanquish, CoolSculpting and Zerona for fat reduction. I have experience with Vanquish, CoolSculpting and Zerona. We have had our CoolSculpting device now for over 5 years and were the first office in Orange County to have Vanquish. We obtained our Vanquish in January, 2014. We have had very nice results from both of these devices. CoolSculpting works by freezing the fat cells and causing the cells to die. This device is ideal for localized areas of fat such as the 'love handles' and 'bra rolls'. The downside of CoolSculpting is that it takes one hour per localized area. Vanquish utilizes a large panel which lies very close to the skin and can cover a broad area. Vanquish then heats up the fat cells to over 110 degrees fahrenheit to cause the fat cells to die as well. As you can see, you can reduce fat cells by taking them to either extreme in temperature for enough time. Both devices take some time to see the final results. Results can be impressive in certain patients. I don't compare the results to liposuction as I feel I can obtain better results surgically, but not everyone is interested in surgery. It is best to obtain a consultation to see which device is best for you. With regards to Zerona, it utilizes low level energy to supposedly cause fat cells to 'leak'. I had the device for several results and patients seemed happy; however, I returned the device as I felt they achieved their results from the exercise, diet and supplements that were recommended with it.

Answer: None of these methods really do anything but reduce your wallet size. Most gimmicky methods like these are worthless and only eat away your money and time. Every great once in a while i hear of a patient who had some improvement though.

Answer: Vanquish, CoolSculpting, Zerona. What's the Best? It's a great question. Noninvasive fat removal offers minor results, which works for some people. However, for the most dramatic body contouring there is nothing that matches a liposuction procedure. If you're considering a non-invasive procedure check out the patient reviews on realself to make sure that you like the reviews as well as the before-and-after photos posted by people have had the exact same treatment.

Answer: Non-surgical Fat Reduction Advice There are several new options for non-surgical fat reduction out there. I would personally recommend BTL Vanquish! CoolSculpting is a little more agressive, and Zerona may take longer to see results. Vanquish is a nice medium ground, generally pain free, and gets great results after 3-4 treatments. I will caution you, some people are not going to be canidates for non-surgical fat reduction, depending on how much you expect to lose. If you're looking to loose a few inches around your waist, give Vanquish a try.

Answer: Vanquish vs Cool Sculpt Thank you for your question, in my opinion, Vanquish is the safest, easiest radio frequency laser to use for this. The RF Technology gently heats the unwanted fat cells destroying them without harming the surrounding skin, muscles and vital organs. The RF waves are specifically targeting the fat cells destroying and eliminating them, other non-invasive fat reduction treatments only shrink the fat cells without completely eliminating them. Vanquish is FDA approved for deep heating tissue which has an amazing side effect of eliminating your unwanted abdominal fat and love handles in a single 30-45 minute session compared to other 1 hour procedure time associated with other non-invasive Fat Reduction procedures. There is no pain or restrictions on your personal or professional life following a Vanquish Fat Reduction treatment. Please rememeber, Vanquish fat Reduction is a complement to women and men who are working out and following a healthy diet. Best of luck to you! #vanquish #fatreduction #nonsurgicalliposuction #lipo

Answer: SculpSure - the best non-invasive fat reduction treatment Your question dates back two years ago, so I am not surprised you did not reference SculpSure, the new and only FDA-approved laser to provide the quickest treatment (25-minutes) and easiest recovery (none). Patients complete the treatment and walk out of our office ready to resume their ordinary activities. Sculpsure is a non-invasive lipolysis device that leverages controlled and targeted hyperthermic laser. The technique dives past your dermis for minimal absorption and then penetrates deeply to destroy subcutaneous fat. I suggest you consult a board certified facial plastic surgeon to receive the highest quality knowledge, treatment, care and skill available. A consultation provides you the opportunity to relay your concerns and desired outcome to the surgeon while the surgeon can assess your health profile and discuss his/her pertinent advice.
