  1. Overlake Plastic Surgeons Frequently Asked Questions: SculpSure 1.What is SculpSure? SculpSure is a non-invasive body contouring procedure for the reduction of stubborn fat in areas such as the abdomen and love handles. The 25-minute procedure destroys up to 24% of treated fat cells without surgery. 2.Who is the ideal candidate for SculpSure? Most people with stubborn fat are candidates for SculpSure, as long as they are within 25 pounds of their goal body weight. 3.What areas can be treated with SculpSure? SculpSure is FDA-approved for the abdomen, hips, and waist; however, the applicators can be applied to any area of the body including the inner and outer thighs and arms. 4.What is the difference between SculpSure vs. Coolsculpting? CoolSculpting uses a cooling tool that suctions in the area to be reduced, and “freezes” the fat. The treatment itself is somewhat painful. With CoolSculpting, there is a recovery time up to 2 weeks, with most patients experiencing ongoing pain and numbness. SculpSure uses a directed laser to safely reduce the fat cells using heat, while a cooling pad keeps your skin comfortable. With SculpSure, there is virtually no pain or swelling after the procedure, so the recovery time is minimal. SculpSure represents a newer and superior technology! 5.Is the SculpSure treatment painful?

  2. No, SculpSure is a very comfortable procedure. Most patients feel a tingling, warm sensation with intermittent cooling throughout the treatment. 6.Is SculpSure safe? What are the risks and complications? Yes, SculpSure is a safe, FDA-approved and clinically proven treatment. Complications are minor, including temporary redness of the skin, or temporary firm areas of fat. 7.Can SculpSure replace a surgical procedure such as a tummy tuck or liposuction? SculpSure does not correct loose skin like a tummy tuck. SculpSure performs fat reduction similar to liposuction, but with slightly less dramatic results, and no recovery. 8.How does the SculpSure treatment work? SculpSure uses laser pads placed on the skin to heat and disrupt fat cells on your abdomen and flanks, effectively eliminating up to 24% of the fat in the treatment area, according to FDA studies. 9.How Many SculpSure treatments are needed to see results? Most patients see results after one treatment. However, some patients may wish to have additional treatments based on desired results.
