People are living longer and looking better than they ever have before. That’s because both traditional medicine and cosmetic treatments have become more targeted and less traumatic than conventional solutions. Mariposa Medical Spa offers non-surgical body contouring treatments that OKC residents can count on. There are several benefits to removing stubborn fat with non-surgical body contouring and here are a few of them.
Non-Surgical Body Contouring Involves Less Risk
Non-surgical fat reduction treatment does not have the risks associated with traditional liposuction because it is non-invasive. The treatment targets the fat cells without disrupting the skin and the surrounding areas around the treatment site. Liposuction, on the other hand, is an operation with risks that include fluid accumulation, infections, temporary numbness, scarring, and skin irregularities. As with other surgical procedures, patients can have severe anesthesia-related complications to traditional liposuction.
There Are Several Options for Body Contouring
The FDA has approved several minimally- to non-invasive body contouring treatments including non-surgical methods to remove unwanted fat. Some treatments include cryolipolysis, laser fat reduction, injectable treatments, and ultrasound therapy. Depending on your needs and goals, our staff will work with you to determine which treatment option will work best. Each one comes with different pros and cons, which we will go over with at your consultation.
Non-Surgical Body Contouring Requires Minimal Downtime
Conventional liposuction is a major operation and requires general anesthesia. Though it is usually an outpatient surgery, it may take up to four weeks for you to get back to your regular activities. Non-surgical body contouring, on the other hand, is called a “lunchtime” procedure because it requires no recovery time. Patients can usually go back to their usual activity after the treatment.
Treatment Options for Residents in OKC
At Mariposa Med Spa in OKC we have several non-surgical options for our community. They include CoolSculpting®, VelaShape®, and Zerona®.
CoolSculpting® kills fat cells through a freezing process. VelaShape® uses a combination of technologies: Vacuum and Mechanical Massage, Infrared Light Energy, and Bi-Polar Radiofrequency (RF) to heat and smooth the skin to safely shrink and reduce the fat chambers and fat cells. Zerona® is a procedure that uses cold laser technology to safely remove excess fat from problem areas without harm to other cells and capillaries in the area.
