After LASIK or cataract vision correction procedure, many people notice details of their faces and bodies such as new wrinkles, spots, and flabbiness.  At the Honolulu branch of Hawaii Vision Clinic, we have combined Ophthalmology and Dermatology into our aesthetic department called Pelleve Hawaii to help address these unwanted surprises. 

In addition to Botox, laser skin resurfacing, and Pelleve skin tightening our newest offering is SculpSure body contouring. Here are some more details from our doctors at the clinic on what SculpSure is and how it works:

What Is SculpSure?

SculpSure is an FDA-approved body contouring procedure that aims to reduce stubborn pockets of fat around your body. It is non-surgical and non-invasive and does not require any anesthetics. Successful SculpSure procedures can reduce persistent fat areas by 25% in a single session.

How Does It Work? 

While SculpSure isn’t laser surgery, it does use a laser applicator to heat up fat cells; they become damaged, and the body clears them away. The goal is to reduce the number fat cells in the targeted areas; once they are gone, they do not grow back. While the heat is being applied, cooling plates keep the skin from getting overheated. There is no suction involved, and there is minimal to no pain as well as no bruising.

A SculpSure session lasts 25 minutes, and several areas can be treated in the same session. Costs can vary depending on how many treatment ares you choose. SculpSure can work on many areas of the body, but the most common are the abdomen, thighs, and back. Additionally, there is no recovery time with SculpSure; patients can resume their daily activities immediately.

Who Can Qualify for SculpSure?

SculpSure is suitable for all skin types and colors and has been used by both men and women. However, SculpSure is not meant for people looking for dramatic weight loss or a fat reduction option for obesity. SculpSure is meant for anyone who is close to their ideal weight, but has remaining, stubborn areas of fat. If you are at or within 30 lbs of your goal weight, SculpSure is a good route for fat reduction.
