Fat Reduction

Most people seeking fat reduction are already close to their ideal weight, but alas, stubborn stores of fat remain despite copious amounts of diet and exercise. While surgeries including liposuction and abdominoplasty remain the “gold standard” for body contouring, there are many individuals who are unwilling to proceed with surgery based on personal choices, lifestyle or budget. Non-surgical fat reduction can be used to create better body contours without having to elect for surgery. At ICLS, we rely on the latest non-invasive fat removal technologies to reduce isolated pockets of fat. 

BodyTite and Vanquish use radiofrequency technology to heat and eliminate fat, while CoolSculpting® uses Cryolipolysis cooling technology. Some of the areas that can be treated include the double chin, full abdomen, an abdominal “pooch,” bra line, hips, inner thighs, back, love handles, knees and arms. 

Emsculpt is a technology that focuses on building muscle to break down fat. Emsculpt uses high-intensity electromagnetic energy to trigger muscle contractions in localized areas such as the stomach or buttocks. As the muscles are subjected to such intense pulses, they begin releasing chemicals which trigger fat cell breakdown. As the cells are destroyed, they release fatty acids, which in turn trigger more fat cells to die off. Ultimately, these destroyed cells are metabolized and naturally eliminated by the body.
