Understanding nonsurgical body contouring

Nonsurgical body contouring includes a range of treatments designed to reduce fat, tighten skin, and improve body shape without incisions or anesthesia. These procedures use cutting-edge technologies to target specific areas, stimulate collagen production, and break down fat cells, all while allowing you to return to your normal activities right away.

At The Secret Orchid, Dr. DeLucia offers advanced procedures like RF skin tightening and noninvasive fat reduction.

How RF skin tightening works

RF skin tightening involves administering radiofrequency energy to the deeper layers of the skin, which encourages collagen and elastin production. This process tightens loose skin and improves texture over time, creating a firmer, more toned appearance.

This treatment is ideal for men and women with mild to moderate skin laxity who aren't ready for or don't need surgical intervention. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, thighs, arms, and neck. Results develop gradually as collagen builds, with continued improvement over several months.

Understanding noninvasive fat reduction

Noninvasive fat reduction is designed to target stubborn fat pockets that resist traditional diet and exercise. Treatments like Accent Prime, CoolSculpting®, and EMSCULPT® break down fat cells, which are then removed by the body over time.

While fat reduction doesn't replace weight loss, it can refine your shape by reducing localized fat deposits. Results are gradual, with noticeable improvements showing over several weeks to a few months. Multiple sessions may be recommended depending on your goals and the area being treated.

Who should get nonsurgical body contouring?

You may be a good candidate for nonsurgical body contouring if you:

• Are at or near your goal weight, but have stubborn fat or loose skin
• Want to improve body shape without surgery
• Have realistic expectations about gradual results
• Are in good overall health

During your visit to our office in Hillsborough Township, NJ, Dr. DeLucia will assess your body and recommend the ideal approach for your needs.

Which treatment fits you best?

Choosing the right treatment depends on your specific concerns:

• For loose skin: RF skin tightening is ideal for improving firmness and texture.
• For stubborn fat: Noninvasive fat reduction targets areas like inner thigh fat pockets or love handles.
• For both concerns: Combining treatments can address fat and skin laxity at the same time.

What to expect during and after treatment

Nonsurgical body contouring treatments are typically quick and considered comfortable. Sessions can last about an hour, depending on the area and technology used. There's little to no downtime involved, and you can resume normal activities right away. Some redness, swelling, or tenderness may occur, but these effects are temporary. Results develop over time as your body processes fat and produces new collagen.
