Pre-Second Treatment Update

I'm excited to be going to my second Sculpsure treatment tomorrow! After my first treatment 6 weeks ago, my left flank felt tender for about a week. It took about a week for the module to dissipate too. I can tell that my left flank is smaller and that I have less fat on my abs. I think it took about 5-6 weeks for a notable difference So far, I'm happy with the results! I'll post my 6 week after photos as soon as I get them from the doctor's office. I can't wait to see the difference!

Had my first Sculpsure treatment! Here's my Day Of experience.

Hi everyone! I had my first Sculpsure treatment on September 4th! I booked my consultation and first treatment at Dr. Marta Recasens office in Glendale, CA. The office was very nice, clean and comfortable. The front desk staff were very nice and personable. I originally thought that Dr. Recasens would be doing my treatment, but I must have misunderstood. The Sculpsure technician is Patty and she is amazing! Patty asked me about the areas that I would like treated, I told her my upper abs and flanks, particularly my left flank that is much larger than my right, even after my TT in November 2017. Although we both felt that both flanks could use treatment, we agreed that we should treat my left flank and upper abs. Patty explained the procedure, how it works, what it would feel like during and after the treatment. We used 4 applicators on my left flank and 4 on my upper abs. We decided to treat my left flank first. Patty placed the applicator belt in position, marked the edges to make sure it didn't shift and then secured the belt around me. The belt was snug but not tight and was comfortable. The goal is to get some of the fat to "pillow" inside the applicator holder rectangles. (See photo) Patty then applied a small amount of liquid to the "pillowed" skin. The liquid didn't feel like anything, didn't have any type of smell and didn't cause any type of adverse reaction. Patty attached the applicators to the holders, making sure everything was still in place and that I was comfortable. She then started the treatment. The first 5 minutes is the "warm up". It alternated between warm and cold. My skin felt a little tingly. This part actually felt pretty good. After the 5 minute warm up, the machine started to heat up, the cycles of warm then cool started to get longer and the real work began.

Now for the treatment experience of my flank.... I'm not going to lie, I'm not looking forward to doing the second treatment on my flank. It was uncomfortable. We started at the lowest power and I did end up at full power. Like other reviews have stated, just when I thought I wasn't sure I could take much more, the cooling sensation would start, giving me the break I needed. It didn't burn, it was more a feeling of contracting and pinching/tingling. I asked Patty if it was normal to feel like I have pretty bad menstrual cramps and she said that it was normal to feel that. That's the part that was most uncomfortable. The feeling of strong uterus cramping. I was so thankful that Patty was talking to me throughout the treatment, because there were times that I was struggling to get through. At one point I started to feel slightly light headed and wished I had eaten a snack before I went in. Make sure you eat something before you do this treatment! I asked how much time I had left and I still had 7 minutes, which I thought would never end. I was so glad when the flank was over. After Patty took the applicators off, the area was slightly red, and not hot to the touch, which was surprising. The front part of my flank where the first applicator was located was very sore, like I got elbowed in the side. I noticed I had a nodule about 2"x2" immediately after the treatment of my flank. Nodules are common and not a concern.
Patty then got me ready for the upper abs. She attached the applicator holders in place, they were snug but comfortable. She did the same prep that she did for my flanks. Machine warmed up the same and we started my upper ab treatment. Patty previously said she felt the flanks hurt more than the abs, so I was hoping this would be easier. It was! The upper abs were not uncomfortable at all! I could have done those all day. After the treatments were over, Patty told me to drink a lot of water and massage the areas for the next 6 weeks when I return for my second treatment to help my lymphatic system flush the destroyed fat cells out. I can't wait to see the results! I will post my one week update to let you all know how I feel and if I see any changes! Happy Sculpting!

Sculpsure Treatment Scheduled!

When given the choice of providers for my Sculpsure treatment, I immediately researched Realself for reviews, looked up each provider online, and then called each office to speak to the staff and ask questions about the procedure. I was very impressed from the very first interaction with Dr. Marta Recasens's office. The woman that answered my initial call (I didn't write down her name) was very nice, kindly answered all of my questions and even told me about her personal experience with Sculpsure. I was impressed with this office's before and after photos of the procedure, and happy that the procedure will be done by the doctor herself. I decided to schedule my Sculpsure consultation/appointment and spoke with Patty, who was also very kind and professional. I'm schedule for next Tuesday, September 4th! I'm so excited and can't wait to share my experience and results with all of you! Look out flanks, we're coming for ya!
