Body Contouring

Non-Invasive Body Contouring

Vanquish – Exilis – VelaShape

Non-Invasive body contouring is also known as non-surgical fat reduction. Here we describe a variety of nonsurgical fat reduction procedures that have no downtime! These procedures reduce or remove stubborn pockets of fat to contour and shape different areas of the body.

Do you have stubborn areas of fat or cellulite that won’t respond to diet and exercise? The Georgia Dermatology Center is pleased to offer three non-surgical treatments for quick body contouring:

1. Exilis body contouring treatments are minimally invasive treatments that can tighten loose skin on your neck, abdomen, back, arms, and legs.
2. Vanquish uses controlled heating and cooling to ensure energy is delivered to various depths in the tissue without pain.
3. VelaShape. This is a non-surgical treatment that smooths away cellulite using a unique combination of infrared and radio frequency energies.

Convenience:

• Body contouring procedures are nonsurgical and minimally invasive to noninvasive.
• Typically, there is no downtime. You can resume daily activities immediately after the treatment.

VANQUISH

Target Areas:

• Abdomen
• Flanks

Treatment Time:

• Each treatment takes one hour on average, and you should be able to go back to your daily activities immediately.
• Multiple treatments are usually required.

The Vanquish treatment works by using Radio-frequency (RF) energy. RF penetrates the body and is absorbed by fat cells in the abdomen. The focused heat liquidizes the fat and ruptures the cells in the targeted area, effectively destroying the fat cells without damaging muscle or skin. Best results are seen with 4-6 treatments.

EXILIS

During the procedure, the sound waves heat fat cells to the point that they break down. Over the weeks or months following treatment, patients will notice the fat slowly dissolve and the skin tighten. First, the energy causes collagen remodeling. This thickens the second layer of the skin, helping plump fine lines and wrinkles. Second, the energy deeply heats the tissue, causing contraction of the deeper planes which leads to tightening of the skin, thus reducing skin folds and sagging.

Target Areas:

• Face –  On the face we can tighten skin around the eyes, on the chin, near the mouth, and on the neck.
• Body – On the body, it can reduce fat and boost collagen on the thighs, buttocks, stomach, hips, arms, and back altogether providing skin tightening.

Treatment Time:

• Each treatment takes one hour on average, and you should be able to go back to your daily activities immediately.
• Multiple treatments are usually required.

Exilis is considered to be one of the best non-invasive skin tightening and fat reduction procedures on the market. Our patients at Georgia Dermatology, located north of Atlanta,  love the results they see from Exilis, and most return to have multiple areas treated.

Exilis has been so popular, we have attracted patients from all over Atlanta including Alpharetta, Johns Creek, Roswell, Sandy Springs, Milton, Suwanee and Duluth.

VELASHAPE

VelaShape represents the latest in cutting-edge, non-invasive body contouring technology. VelaShape is effective for cellulite reduction, skin tightening/firming, and reducing the circumference for versatile areas of the body.

Target Areas:

• Arms
• Thighs
• Buttocks
• Abdomen

VelaShape remarkably improves the tone and texture of skin, leaving behind a youthful and smoother skin appearance.

Treatment Time:

• Each treatment takes one hour on average, and you should be able to go back to your daily activities immediately.
• Multiple treatments are usually required.

Velashape works great as a stand alone treatment, or to enhance the results of liposuction. A series of 5 treatments is recommended for best results.

Studies show that VelaShape treatment reduces an average of over 2 centimeters in thigh circumference and sixty percent improvement in skin texture, laxity, and tone after five treatments. Most patients experienced no pain or discomfort during or after the procedure.
