Summer’s Coming: SculpSure® Can Help You Get Swimsuit Ready

With swimsuit season fast approaching, it’s time to think about the impression you want to make when you hit the beach or pool deck this summer. You’ve worked hard to attain and maintain your ideal body mass, but getting older means you have less choice about how your body forms bulges and rolls. 

This is where SculpSure® steps in, a laser-based lipolysis treatment that effectively melts fat away from the places that diet and exercise won’t touch. Dr. Richard Blanchar and the team at Bayview General Medicine proudly offer this premium body contouring system by CynoSure® for our patients. Here’s why now is the time to let SculpSure help you get swimsuit-ready. 

The need for body contouring

As you get older, hormonal balances change things about your body that upset the patterns to which you’ve become accustomed. Add the effects of time, and you can develop fat deposits that won’t respond to typical weight loss efforts like calorie deficit or toning your body through exercise. 

In many cases, these rolls are subdermal fat in locations that no amount of muscle tone can contain. There’s little you can do at home to address these intrusive body shapers. 

Laser lipolysis with SculpSure

The idea of melting away fat sounds like an impossible daydream, but your biology supports a process that makes the idea feasible. Not all body tissue is as durable as your skin. 

Subdermal fat, which rests between your skin and muscle layers, has a low tolerance to temperature variation. It doesn’t need this ability since blood flow through your skin provides a barrier of thermal protection that controls the conditions the fat layer experiences. 

SculpSure uses laser light energy, delivering powerful beams that contain just a single, tightly controlled wavelength of light. Since light energy transfers into materials that absorb it, this single wavelength can target specific tissue while passing through others. 

How heat changes fat

The narrow temperature tolerance of fat means that only a slight boost in tissue temperature damages fat cells. It’s not melting in the sense of candle wax, but this coagulation point signals that treated cells are damaged and flagged for natural absorption, your body’s way of taking out the trash. 

In the weeks after your SculpSure treatment, you’ll notice those stubborn fat rolls losing volume. The final stages of sculpting your ideal body have started. 

It’s about a two to three-month process toward maximum results. Better yet, a SculpSure session takes under an hour and requires no downtime for recovery. You can resume your daily activities immediately while your body responds to treatment.
