The weather’s warming up, which means summer will be here before you know it! Here at Hendrick Plastic Surgery and MedSpa, we offer a variety of treatments to help you reclaim your self-confidence and a sleeker figure just in time to soak up the sun. If you’re ready to shed your winter layers and show off a new and improved beach body, now is the time to set your goals into motion.
Let’s explore some body-enhancing treatment options:
CoolSculpting®
If you want to refine your body’s contours with a non-invasive, no-downtime treatment, look no further than CoolSculpting, the only technology FDA-cleared to freeze away fat cells for good. Its targeted cooling panels treat fat cells below the skin, leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. Once these fat cells are frozen, they are naturally flushed from the body in the weeks and months following treatment, leaving you with gradual, natural-looking results. You can expect to see optimal results up to three months after your treatment, meaning that now is the perfect time to start pursuing your beach body!
Commonly treated areas include:
- Abdomen
- Inner and outer thighs
- Muffin top
- Bra-line bulge
- Flanks or love handles
- Upper arms
Kybella®
Smooth away excess fat under the chin and create a sleeker neckline with Kybella, the first and only injectable designed to improve the appearance of a double chin. Kybella is made of a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps break down fat cells, diminishing double chins and tightening the skin for long-term results. You can expect to see results about two months following treatment. Depending on your aesthetic goals, we recommend a series of treatments to achieve optimal results. Best of all, only minimal downtime is required — typically about two days — before you can return to your regular routine.
Liposuction
Some “problem areas” on the body are resistant to even the most thorough diet and exercise regimens. If you’ve found yourself frustrated by stubborn fat that just won’t go away, liposuction can help remove lingering fat and reshape your body, boosting your confidence in the process. Usually performed under local or general anesthesia, liposuction can take anywhere from one to three hours, depending on the area being treated. During the procedure, we make a tiny incision in the treatment area and insert a thin, hollow tube, called a cannula, to suction out the fat. You can expect at least three to five days of downtime following your treatment session, and you’ll wear a compression garment for up to four weeks. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your recovery period based on your specific treatment area and aesthetic goals. You can help maintain your long-lasting results by sticking to a healthy diet and exercise routine.
Liposuction can help:
- Contour the abdomen
- Redefine the jowls, chin, neck and cheeks
- Reduce “love handles”
- Remove excess fat on the hips, thighs and buttocks
