Body Contouring Q & A

How does body contouring work?

WarmSculpting with SculpSure body contouring uses targeted laser energy to eliminate unwanted fat cells permanently. The technology works by sending controlled bursts of heat below your skin and into your fat cells.

The heat painlessly destroys the fat cells. In time, your body's lymphatic system carries away the fatty tissue, resulting in a slimmer appearance. Each 25-minute session rids you of about 24% of fat cells.

What areas does body contouring treat?

Body contouring targets fat bulges that are resistant to diet and exercise. The FDA-cleared therapy helps eliminate unwanted fat in your:

Stomach
Waist
Back
Inner thighs
Outer thighs

WarmSculpting with SculpSure also removes fat under your chin.

Is body contouring right for me?

Your provider at West Sacramento Urgent Care discusses body contouring to determine whether you're an appropriate candidate. They talk with you about your goals for a slimmed-down appearance.

Body contouring isn’t intended as a weight-loss method and works best when accompanied by a healthy lifestyle.

Your provider reviews your medical history and may calculate your body mass index (BMI). You're generally the right candidate for body contouring if your BMI is 49 or less.

What happens during body contouring?

During your Warmsculpting treatment, your provider places the SculpSure device on your treatment area. When your treatment begins, you feel bursts of warmth, accompanied by mild tingling or pinching sensations.

This is followed by cooling therapy. The entire procedure is quick. Each treatment area usually takes only 25 minutes.

What should I expect after body contouring?

Once your session is over, you can resume your daily activities with little to no downtime. You may feel slight soreness or stiffness in your treatment area.

When do I see results from body contouring?

Your results generally appear as quickly as six weeks after your treatment. You should achieve optimal results 12 weeks after treatment, although results vary.

Because each treatment eliminates up to 24% of fat cells, your provider often recommends a series of treatments to achieve your goal of a slimmer-looking appearance.
