Congratulations, you’ve joined the gym, rid the house of all those holiday treats and stocked up on fruits and veggies. Unfortunately, sometimes even diet and exercise can’t bring your beauty and fitness goals to life, and you may need an extra edge to finally get those sculpted abs you’ve been working so hard for.
That’s where we can come in. Cape and Islands Plastic Surgery offers several non-surgical options to help burn fat, build muscle, and tighten skin. These treatments include CoolSculpting, EMSCULPT, Emsculpt Neo, and Morpheus8.
CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting is a procedure that eliminates stubborn fat safely and effectively, without surgery or downtime. This fat reduction treatment is the only FDA-cleared procedure to use controlled cooling to safely target and eliminate diet-and-exercise-resistant fat. CoolSculpting technology safely delivers precisely controlled cooling to gently and effectively target the fat cells underneath the skin. The treated fat cells are frozen and then die. In the weeks and months following your procedure, your body naturally processes the fat and eliminates these dead cells, leaving a more sculpted you. Once the treated fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good (though individual results can vary from person to person).
Emsculpt
EMSCULPT is a body contouring procedure. EMSCULPT is the process of burning fat and toning muscle through rapid muscle contraction. With an EMSCULPT machine, a muscle group can be contracted 20,000 times in one thirty-minute session, which is equal to about 20,000 squats or crunches. Rapid contractions allow muscles to become toned much quicker than daily gym visits. EMSCULPT technology is the first FDA-cleared energy technology designed for burning fat and building toned muscle.
Emsculpt Neo
EMSCULPT Neo builds off the legacy of its predecessor, by simultaneously emitting both radio frequency and high intensity electromagnetic energies. The result is more fat reduction and muscle growth for less time and less money. In one 30-minute session, it contracts muscles up to 24,000 times, burns 30% of fat and enhances muscle mass by 25% after 3 months post-treatment.
The major difference between EMSCULPT and EMSCULPT Neo is that the Neo has heat built into the device via radio frequency so it can treat patients with greater fat reducing needs, up to BMI 35.
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 is a non-surgical skincare procedure that pairs two key technologies: microneedling and radiofrequency energy.
By superficially damaging the top layers of the skin, the body responds by producing more collagen. Collagen is a building block in new skin cells, and as we age we produce less of it leading to wrinkles, cellulite, scarring, etc.
RF energy is often used to heat deeper layers of your skin, and when combined with microneedling these two individual treatments lead to heightened collagen production in the treatment area. This can help smooth skin and decrease the visibility of wrinkles. Morpheus8 can treat the face, neck, chest arms, legs, abdomen and buttocks.
