Reduce unwanted fat deposits with exercise and diets
To get rid of excess pounds in a healthy way, a balanced diet and plenty of exercise are still the means of choice. Increasing importance is being attached to an active lifestyle and a sporty appearance. However, not all unwanted fat deposits can be reduced with the help of diets and exercise. This can be very frustrating for those affected, as they are trained and feel fit, but the small problem areas do not want to disappear. In this case, various surgical and non-surgical methods are available in aesthetic medicine to permanently remove the fat cells in question. The specialist for aesthetic treatments will inform you which procedure is best suited to your individual case in a personal consultation based on a careful examination.
Liposuction – a method for weight reduction?
Although liposuction is a treatment option for stubborn fat deposits, it is not suitable for weight loss. People who are overweight (obese) must therefore first achieve the desired weight loss with conservative measures. If, despite normal weight, localized fat deposits remain that cannot be treated, they can be treated with surgical or minimally invasive liposuction if necessary. Non-surgical treatment procedures are also only used for harmonious body contouring rather than weight reduction.
Non-surgical alternatives to liposuction: injection lipolysis
Surgery is not always necessary immediately to remove fat deposits that are perceived as unpleasant. In modern aesthetic medicine, interest in liposuction without surgery is growing. For this reason, minimally invasive methods are constantly being established and further developed. Injection lipolysis is a gentle, non-surgical liposuction option. It is also commonly known as fat-away injection known. Using a fine cannula, the active ingredient phosphatidylcholine is injected into the areas to be treated. There it stimulates the breakdown of fat, whereby the fat cells are liquefied and can be transported away via the bloodstream.
The treatment takes about 15 to 30 minutes. Anesthesia is not necessary as injection lipolysis is performed with a very thin needle. Experience has shown that around two to four sessions are required to achieve optimum treatment results. The individual sessions take place at intervals of six to eight weeks.
What is SculpSure®?
Another method of non-surgical liposuction is treatment with the treatment with the SculpSure® fat-away laser . The device emits targeted laser light into the deep tissue layers via four applicators that are placed on the skin. The fatty tissue is heated to 42 to 47 degrees Celsius by the light energy, while the surrounding tissue and skin remain unharmed. In addition, a built-in cooling device ensures that no skin burns occur and that the treatment is perceived as pleasant. The fat cells are destroyed by the brief and intense heat development in the tissue. The body then breaks down the fat cells via the lymphatic system. At the same time, the heat stimulates the body’s own collagen synthesis, which has a tightening effect in the treated area. The treatment with SculpSure® takes about 25 minutes and also does not require anesthesia.
Comparison with cryolipolysis
In contrast to cryolipolysis, SculpSure® does not work with cold, but with heat. As the treatment areas are not fixed with a vacuum in the fat-away laser, the method is often perceived as less uncomfortable. The risk of hematomas and temporary numbness is also usually lower with SculpSure®. One of the major advantages of the SculpSure® treatment is the additional tightening effect caused by the heat development and the resulting stimulation of collagen production.
