It can be incredibly difficult to determine which fat removal treatment is going to give you the results you desire. After all, there’s not much to love about love handles and stubborn fat that, despite diet and exercise, refuses to go away. Several non-invasive body contouring treatments can help reduce those stubborn fat areas, but deciding which treatment is right for you can be difficult.
Here’s a simple breakdown to help determine whether Liposonix Fat Reduction or Exilis Ultra 360 may be right for you.
Eliminating Stubborn Fat
If you’re wondering whether it’s possible to use a non-invasive approach to body contouring, the answer is yes! Radiance Medspa has two different high technology approaches – Liposonix Fat Reduction and Exilis Ultra 360 – that can be used to target unwanted fat on the body. Depending on your plan, the doctor might use one, or both to treat your stubborn fat and loose skin.
Liposonix Fat Reduction
Liposonix focuses ultrasound waves into fat cells and is most often used on the belly, flanks, and thighs. The Liposonix procedure takes about an hour, and patients typically see results between 8-12 weeks. Liposonix Fat Reduction is ideal for patients with more than one inch of fat and looking for treatment in the following areas:
- Abdomen
- Love handles
- Thighs
- Buttocks
How Liposonix Works
The Liposonix system uses state-of-the-art technology to focus intense, ultrasonic energy into concentrated waves that can safely pass through the outer layers of skin tissue. This device penetrates the fat cells that lie beneath the skin’s surface. The ultrasonic energy heats up the fat cells, to the point of complete destruction.
Once the fat cells are destroyed, the body’s natural healing process will take over, gradually removing the destroyed fat cells from the treatment area. Over a period of several weeks, these collected fat cells will then be expelled from the body as waste in a natural process.
Liposonix Treatment and Recovery Time
Possibly one of the most appealing qualities of the Liposonix procedure is that it typically requires no downtime. Most patients return to their normal daily activities immediately. Some patients may feel some minor tenderness immediately after treatment, and some patients may develop minor bruising around the treatment area. Even with the rare minor bruising or tenderness, these side effects are entirely temporary and will not disrupt your normal activities.
Why Is The Exilis Ultra 360 Different?
Exilis, in addition to being a safe, non-invasive treatment for targeting fat, can also tighten the skin. This treatment can be used on any part of the body, making it a versatile option with few limitations. During the Exilis process, radiofrequency energy penetrates the deep layers of the skin to target fat cells. This method also stimulates the production of collagen which helps to tighten the skin.
Flexible Treatment Applications With Exilis Ultra 360
With treatment depths ranging from superficial to deep, the Exilis Ultra 360 offers personalized tightening without any downtime and exceptional benefits like:
Versatility. This treatment device allows for a wide range of treatment areas that were previously thought of as impossible to tighten without surgery.
Convenience. Treatments take just 15-30 minutes per area on the body, and most patients benefit from between 2-4 treatments, each spaced one week apart, to obtain desired results.
Comfort. Different from other skin tightening treatments, patients can tighten without experiencing discomfort and lingering soreness. There is no downtime required.
Eliminating Fat Vs. Loose Skin
Patients love their results from both treatments. Not only do they see results, but they’re also getting the added benefits of flexible treatment applications, pain-free procedures, and conveniently quick appointments.
