Summer’s coming fast, and whether you feel excited to pack away your sweaters or dread showing more skin in warmer months, you have plenty of options to tone up quickly. However, not everyone is willing or able to commit to the recovery period that’s necessary after surgical sculpting techniques. Non-invasive med spa treatments offered by Dr. Sara Yegiyants offer fantastic results for anyone looking to build their confidence with a beautiful summer-ready body.
Why Choose Non-Invasive Body Sculpting?
Non-invasive body contouring treatments offer many benefits.
- Minimal downtime: Many non-invasive treatments require no recovery period at all, letting you return to your usual activities right away.
- Decreased risk: Non-invasive treatments require no anesthesia or incisions, reducing your chances of developing complications like infection and scarring.
- Affordability: These treatments typically cost less than surgical interventions.
- Natural enhancement: Unlike the dramatic changes that are possible with surgery, non-invasive treatments offer more subtle enhancement to your innate beauty.
Whether you want to tighten your skin, banish excess fat, or smooth cellulite, the following treatments can help you meet your aesthetic goals.
Fat Freezing With CoolSculpting® Elite
A popular FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment, CoolSculpting® Elite freezes fat cells so your body will eliminate them naturally. This procedure may work well for stubborn fat deposits in these areas:
- Outer or inner thighs
- Buttocks
- Abdomen
- Love handles
- Bra bulge
- Upper arms
CoolSculpting® results appear around a month after your initial session, and depending on your needs, you can schedule a series of appointments for long-lasting sleek contours.
State-of-the-Art Fat Removal With WarmSculpting
WarmSculpting can address areas of excess fat that haven’t responded well to diet or exercise. Using laser energy to destroy fat cells, this non-invasive procedure may be ideal for anyone who is close to their ideal weight and has decent skin elasticity.
A WarmSculpting session takes about 20 minutes, and Dr. Yegiyants will help you decide how many treatments you need. Your new silhouette will become more noticeable six weeks after your procedure, with tightened skin and reduced cellulite.
Pulsed Light Technology for Stretch Marks
Many people experience stretch marks from weight gain or pregnancy, but Icon, a non-invasive pulsed light technology, can fade these marks. Icon is the only laser technology cleared by the FDA to treat stretch marks; it works well for anyone who wants smooth, touchable skin without surgery or lengthy downtime.
Icon requires four to eight half-hour treatments for full results.
Cellulite Smoothing With Cellfina and Aveli
Anyone can develop cellulite, no matter their weight or body type. The resulting uneven appearance can be frustrating and make you self-conscious about wearing shorts, skirts, or swimsuits.
Cellfina and Aveli disconnect fibrous bands that create cellulite dimples, banishing cellulite and leaving you with smooth contours. These treatments are ideal for patients who want a single-visit treatment with minimal downtime, eliminating the lumpy, orange-peel texture for youthful legs and buttocks.
Radiofrequency and Microneedling for Tighter Skin
Morpheus8 stimulates collagen production, tightens skin, and lessens fat deposits by combining two well-established non-invasive treatments – radiofrequency and microneedling. This treatment is ideal for addressing:
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Hyperpigmentation
- Enlarged pores
- Stretch marks
- Acne scars
- Skin laxity
Treatments typically take between 15 and 60 minutes, and last about a year. This gentle, heat-based option is most popular for the face, but can transform many other areas of the body.
EvolveX: Transform Fat, Skin, and Muscle
EvolveX, a non-invasive combination treatment, offers customizable settings to achieve your desired body shape without anesthesia or incisions. This treatment has plenty of advantages, including:
- No downtime after treatment
- Full automation for maximum comfort and convenience
- Excellent safety record and minimal risk
You can fit an hour-long EvolveX treatment in before work or over your lunch break, enjoying visible results after only one session. However, Dr. Yegiyants recommends an initial treatment series of six to eight appointments for best results.
Compression for Lymphatic Drainage
The BallancerPro, a non-invasive pressure garment, drains your lymphatic system with a gentle, relaxing massage. This treatment lessens swelling and fluid retention and can also improve:
- Low energy
- Minor aches and pains
- Sluggish immune system
Each session takes about 20 to 60 minutes, transporting fat naturally for firmer, healthier skin in 12 sessions over three to four weeks.
Supportive Lifestyle Habits
Leading your healthiest lifestyle is crucial for maintaining your results after non-invasive treatments, amplifying the effects for a longer-lasting improvement.
- Get regular exercise, including cardio and resistance training.
- Eat well, with plenty of lean protein and hydration, and less sugar, alcohol, and processed foods.
- Manage stress to lower cortisol, which affects belly fat.
- Get at least seven hours of restful sleep every night.
