Liposuction & RF Lipolysis in Springfield, MO
If you’ve been dieting and exercising, working hard to achieve your body goals, you may have reached a point where that last stubborn inch just won’t shift. Unfortunately, some fat is resistant to traditional methods of weight loss, but you do have options. At Bentley Skincare & Wellness, we’ll match you with a fat-reduction procedure to bring your ultimate body goals back into focus.
How Fat Reduction Works
For better or worse, fat is a fact of life. But sometimes, your body just can’t let go of fatty deposits on your thighs, abdomen, flanks, back, or underarms. At Bentley Skincare & Wellness, we offer two safe and effective treatment methods for the removal of stubborn fat. You’ve probably heard of one option, but the other may surprise you.
Traditional Liposuction
Even traditional surgical liposuction has seen plenty of advancement in recent years. Today, a finer cannula can go where previous liposuction procedures only dared. By using lighter suction to pull fat from stubborn deposits, this procedure reduces the downtime typically associated with fat reduction treatments.
From a lot to a little, traditional liposuction can reach hard-to-lose fat in precision areas to sculpt, tone, and finally bring you across your fitness finish line.
Radiofrequency (RF) Lipolysis
Another approach to fat reduction involves non-surgically destroying fat cells for good. Radiofrequency lipolysis heats fat cells to the point of melting. Afterward, your body processes the melted fat out of your body through completely natural processes.
For the best results, you may need multiple RF lipolysis sessions stretched out across a sequence of weeks. Depending on your goals and expected downtime, RF lipolysis may be the less invasive way to go.
Fat Reduction FAQs
Yes, once fat in the targeted area is melted and processed out of the body, it will not grow back. Unfortunately, this does not mean that a poor diet or sedentary lifestyle won’t result in additional weight gain. Your body is programmed to store fat in certain areas. When it can no longer store fat in an area treated with RF lipolysis, it may find alternative areas.
After your liposuction procedure, you should expect some mild bruising in the treated area for 1–2 weeks. It’s recommended that you avoid any physical activity more impactful than a quick stroll. The ultimate recovery period differs from person to person, but you should expect to rest, relax, and heal for upwards of 2 weeks.
No, the majority of patients find RF lipolysis (also called laser lipolysis) to be a mostly comfortable procedure. A mild sensation of heat can be expected, but any further discomfort is generally mitigated by a local or topical anesthetic or cooling gel in the treatment area.
