Diet and exercise can help you lose weight, but if you’re left with stubborn fat that just won’t reduce, SculpSure® treatments can benefit you. This FDA-cleared technology uses laser energy to destroy fat cells in your problem areas. Dr. Melanie Adams offers this noninvasive body sculpting procedure to men and women in Columbia, Maryland, and the surrounding areas at Melanie L. Adams, MD, PA. Call to make an appointment or use the online booking agent to set up an evaluation and see if the procedure is right for you.
SculpSure uses gentle laser energy to target stubborn fat in areas such as the abdomen, flanks, buttocks, and thighs. The heat from the laser disrupts the integrity of the fat cells so they eventually die. Your body then naturally disposes of the destroyed cells through your lymphatic system.
Most patients describe SculpSure treatments as tingly and deeply warming, and most tolerate the procedure well. During the laser SculpSure treatment, you feel cooling sensations interspersed with the heat of the laser.
SculpSure is for areas that are typically resistant to fat loss, despite efforts to exercise and diet. This includes the love handles, belly, back, thighs, and under the chin. Results do vary.
SculpSure is simple and effective in reducing up to 24% of fat cells in a given area. It requires no surgery or incisions, so recovery is quick and needs no downtime. The staff at Melanie L. Adams, MD, PA, performs SculpSure in a calm and relaxing environment.
Unlike traditional dieting in which the fat cells simply shrink, SculpSure destroys fat cells, meaning the fat loss is permanent.
You may notice changes within six weeks, when your body starts to rid itself of the destroyed fat cells. Full results are evident 12 weeks after treatment. At this point, you may elect to have another session.
The answer is different for every patient. It depends on your goals and how your body responds. Some people do well with one treatment, while others benefit from multiple sessions. Dr. Adams can put together a treatment plan that helps you maximize your results.
After a SculpSure session, there’s no downtime. This means you can resume all your daily activities, such as going to work, exercising, or fulfilling family obligations.
*Individual results may vary.
