Following your Fun Sculpting procedure, you will see a generalized improvement in the contour of the treated area. The vibration of the Fun Sculpting device gently removes the fat while keeping the connective tissue, nerves and glood vessels intact. It also helps to stimulate the production of collagen (natural skin tightening) up to six months post treatment.
Excessive skin folds with large volumes of fat removed often tighten up considerably during the recovery period and most patients have excellent results with Fun Sculpting alone (it is without tummy tuck surgery). However, irregularities in the skin present before the procedure (such as stretch marks) will not necessarily will be improved with your high-definition body contouring procedure.
During the procedure, you could experience a little pain. After a procedure, most patients experience some pain and describe the recovery as comparable to the soreness felt after multiple extensive workouts. Each case is different in discomfort level depending on the areas treated and the pain tolerance levels of each patient.
No, after your treatment, the fat cells will never regenerate in the treated area. There are two types of fat. Adipose fat, between the skin and muscle. This is the fat we are able to extract during the procedure.
The second type of fat is called visceral fat which is below the muscles to protect the body organs. This is not able to be treated in this procedure, however it can be treated with our HIFEM sculpting after the Fun Sculpting procedrue. In addition the sculpting, we recommend a healthy diet and exercise as a lifelong lifestyle . If a healthy diet and exercise is not followed, the fat deposits could go to other areas of the body not treated, such as arms, neck, or any other area not treated.
