Looking for Body Sculpting near me? This is one of the most sought after non-invasive procedures in the DC area!
Shapely hips, sculpted abs and toned thighs – we all want them but achieving them isn’t easy! Even with rigorous diet and exercise, a lot of us have annoying pockets of fat that we just can’t lose. Besides, we also don’t all have the time to spend in the gym that would be required to even come close to achieving our goals. But, we all still want to look our best and feel confident in our bodies.
Thankfully over the last few years, body contouring procedures have become more and more popular and technology has continued to advance. While previously, surgical methods were the only options, now the trend is towards non-invasive fat reduction and body sculpting procedures. Most of us really don’t want to take the risks and downtime of going under the knife. Non-invasive body sculpting procedures don’t require any incisions or anesthesia, are not painful, don’t carry the risks of surgery, are done in an outpatient setting, have no downtime and have a lower price point than invasive methods.
And, thankfully, these treatments are effective! Following non-invasive body contouring treatments, the majority of patients report feeling more confident and happier in their overall appearance and also feeling and looking better in clothes.
Non-invasive body sculpting procedures also compliment lifestyle measures like diet and exercise beautifully. Seeing results that you haven’t been able to achieve on your own is a real motivator to hit the gym and eat better so that you can maintain and enhance them.
If you’re searching for body sculpting in Washington DC or Northern Va and wondering if it’s the right choice for you, there are a few things you should know.
First, the responsiveness of fat cells to destruction by these methods has been found to be inversely proportional to an individual’s BMI. So, if you have a higher BMI, results from body contouring procedures will be less than if you have a lower BMI (we know, this is so not fair!) Most non-invasive body contouring procedures work best on those who are within a few pounds of their ideal body weight. A couple of them do work with BMIs in higher ranges like Cryolipolysis (eg. Cryoskin) and HIFEM (eg. EmSculpt classic) which can both treat up to a BMI of 30. EmSculpt NEO combines both HIFEM and radiofrequency can actually treat those with a BMI up to 35. This is definitely something to keep in mind when deciding if a non-invasive body sculpting procedure is right for you.
You should also know that while these modalities all destroy fat cells permanently, they result in between 15% and 30% reduction in fat depending on the option you choose whereas surgical methods can remove significantly more. Also keep in mind that the amount you will lose is dependent on so many factors and not everyone will see the same results.
Additionally, permanent fat reduction after any of these non-invasive fat loss methods has to be maintained with a balanced lifestyle, which includes a healthy diet and exercise. If you gain weight after your treatments, you are going to fill up the remaining fat cells that were left behind. You will notice that weight gain tends to be more evenly distributed instead of going mainly to your problem area but it is important to remember that you can “out-eat” your results and will need to follow a healthy lifestyle in order to maintain them.
Sometimes no amount of diet and exercise can phase a good pocket of fat cells. Non-invasive body sculpting procedures can give you the extra push you need to finally bid farewell to those stubborn areas— without the knife.
