Stubborn pockets of fat

We are advocates of healthy, balanced diets and regular exercise, however, we know that there are often stubborn, targeted pockets of fat which you are unable to shift with exercise and diet alone. Many of our patients have achieved their weight loss and fitness goals and seek help to sculpt and/or remove those last stubborn inches of fat that remains.

Body contouring and fat-loss treatments can help you improve your shape, however, it’s important to note that the treatments we offer are designed for inch-loss rather than weight-loss. Your practitioner will discuss if you are a good candidate for these treatments. However, there are some general indications that you must have before treatment, which include:

• Being able to “pinch an inch”. We must have 2.5 cm of fat in the treatment site to safely treat you.
• Good overall health.
• Realistic expectations; these treatments are not for weight loss nor are they a replacement for surgical alternatives, they can help to sculpt your figure and reduce stubborn pockets of fat.

Prior to treatment, you will have an in-depth consultation and assessment with one of our medical practitioners to discuss your needs and goals to see which treatment is most appropriate for you, Liposonix® or Cristal™.
