How Do You Know Which Fat Reduction Treatment is Right for You?

First things first… ask yourself. “What are MY goals?”

Do you want area reduction, skin tightening, or spot reduction treatments? Or, do you want all the above?

For 28 years, we have been helping people lose weight by following our nutrition weight loss programs. Over the past 15 years, we have been helping people lose weight AND changing their bodies with our noninvasive lipo alternatives. We offer several services from head to toe that can tighten, tone, reduce, spot reduce or treat whole areas. REMEMBER, body contouring is NOT a means of weight loss, it is a way to contour certain areas of stubborn fat, tighten loose skin or eliminate cellulite! Your daily food intake determines you results from these treatments. At NuBody Solutions, we provide BOTH nutrition plans along with the noninvasive body sculpting services. Body contouring is a series of treatments to change the appearance of/ size of fat cells and/or to tighten skin! These services can be used to eliminate stubborn fat, destroy fat cells, shrink fat cells, tighten loose skin or to smooth away cellulite.

Just remember! Some treatments require you be at your IDEAL weight and some treatments help no matter your current size! At NuBody Solutions, we offer FREE personalized consultations to determine which programs and/or services are right based on YOUR goals! But, there are so many choices out there that make things very confusing. At NuBody Solutions, we actually want to help YOU reach your goals and to help you get comfortable in your own skin! Our number one goal is to help you improve your nutritional habits along with treatments in order to give you long lasting results! Some services are better than others based on where a client is currently in their weight loss or current body goals journey. We want to make sure based on your goals, your current size, weight and budget that it all makes sense! We are up front and carefully make our recommendations based on all the years we have been helping other clients and all of their success!

Just remember nothing will work unless YOU DO! YOU have to make the choice. Are you ready to lose? Are you ready to change your body? Are you ready to come in and receive treatments? We can help you get to your goals if you are willing to take a moment out of your busy lifestyle to see us every now and then! We will give you all the tools you need in order to be successful!

NuBody Solutions services offered for body contouring are as follows:

NuLazer Curve

NuLazer Curve using a diode laser with no heat. This service uses energy. The energy causes fat cells to shrink so there is less fat in a small area.

You can treat several areas at one time if desired. This noninvasive technology reduces fat evenly, giving you more natural looking results. The laser heats fat cells under the skin without affecting the skin’s surface. The fat cells are heated up where the fat cell’s structural integrity is damaged. During the treatment, Contact Cooling stays on throughout the treatment to keep the skin safe and comfortable. The remaining damaged fat cells are removed naturally from your body through your lymphatic system. Once the fat cells are removed, they cannot grow back. NuBody Sculpt doe not tighten skin.

The number of treatments recommended depends on the stage of cellulite. There are 3 stages of cellulite. Stage 3 being the worst. The older a client, the weaker the connective tissue. Some clients need and want skin tightening as well as cellulite reduction. So, it may be best for a NuBody Blend of treatments that consist of NuCelluSmooth along with the NuBody Contour.

Some clients want fat reduction, weight loss and skin tightening. No matter what YOUR goals are…we can help!!! Our consultations are always FREE!!

Cool Sculpting

This is Cryolipolysis. This is freezing the fat cells. The device holds the part of your body your doctor wants to target between two paddles. The area treated is about the size of the palm of your hand. The area treated is frozen causing frostbite to the tissue. The paddles cool quickly and your doctor leaves them in place for about 35 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes. During that time, the process destroys about 20%-25% of the fat cells in the area that's targeted. There are side effects with these treatments and it is a very painful service. You must be at your ideal weight to do the treatments. This treatment is for clients that have less than 1 inch to lose. So, the maximum inch loss from this treatment is ¼ of an inch. There is no skin tightening involved.

Tri-Sculpt or laser assisted lipo

This information is from a doctor employed by Sono Bello. “Many of these doctors are NOT board certified plastic surgeons, and it may not be obvious what their credentials and training are. They call it laser liposuction, which is actually a very old technology, laser lipolysis branded as TriSculpt as a fat removal treatment that’s used to get rid of unwanted fat through surgery. During treatment, a micro laser makes fat removal easier and decreases adipose tissue (the fat issue) below the skin. While it is implied by Sono Bello marketing that TriSculpt is less invasive than traditional liposuction, it is actually just as invasive. Like traditional lipo, your doctor will manually remove unwanted fat through incisions in your target areas. But unlike conventional lipo, lasers are used to melt excess fat and tighten the skin in the area. superior to traditional liposuction because it is performed while you are fully awake. In fact, Sono Bello performs its procedures awake so that these procedures are less expensive for the company to perform and so that they are not as heavily regulated. “

AirSculpt

Both of these methods are excellent at getting rid of stubborn fat. But CoolSculpting is noninvasive and nonsurgical, meaning it doesn't have the risks associated with surgery, or the long recovery time. AirSculpt, on the other hand, is minimally invasive.

Why does Airsculpt cost more than traditional lipo. Liposuction cost varies with many factors. If Airsculpt costs more than traditional liposuction, it may be because no energy (like BodyTite or VASER) is being added to the traditional liposuction to tighten the skin.You will  see better results if you wait until you reach your target weight.

Cavitation:

Ultrasonic cavitation tones the body using radio frequencies and low-frequency ultrasonic waves. These waves form bubbles around fat deposits under the skin. The bubbles then burst, breaking the fat deposits into the interstitial and the lymphatic systems where they are drained. The fat deposits are changed into glycerol and free fatty acids. Glycerol is then reused by the body while free fatty acids travel to the liver and are excreted as waste.
