SculpSure Fat Reduction

The first FDA-cleared light-based body contouring technology, SculpSure from Cynosure, is now available at Southern Surgical Arts.

Recently demonstrated on the Dr. Oz show, the SculpSure non-invasive technology heats fat cells in targeted areas to disrupt their structure. Over time, your body naturally flushes the disrupted cells from your body.

How Does It Work?

SculpSure uses a 1060 nm wavelength to heat the subdermal fat cells while keeping your top layer of skin comfortable using the patented Contact Cooling™ system. Four applicators allow for the equipment to be positioned in multiple areas during a single treatment to melt away stubborn pockets of fat.

Where Can It Be Used?

SculpSure is specifically designed for the abdomen and flank area, commonly referred to as love handles. Clinical trials in over 100 patients show a reduction of fat by 24%.

How Long Does It Take?

The flat non-suction applicators can treat multiple areas in just one 25-minute treatment. They are comfortable and well-tolerated by most patients. There is no downtime, and patients may return to work the same day. The results are seen as quickly as six weeks, but optimal results are usually seen in 12 weeks.

Fat Reduction Frequently Asked Questions

Exilis provides an alternative to surgery.

Many other devices are available that promise the same result, but Exilis is considered the gold standard of noninvasive skin tightening. Now, you can turn back the hands of time and recapture your youthful appearance with Exilis.

How does it work?

Exilis uses radio frequency technology to deliver energy deep into the tissues to liquefy fat and stimulate collagen. Over several treatments, it has been shown to kill fat cells.

Where can it be used?

Exilis can be used to reduce fat and tighten skin on any part of the face or body. It is particularly useful on the thigh area and has been shown to reduce the appearance of cellulite.

How long does it take?

Each treatment covers a 5” x 7” surface and takes 15-20 minutes per side. In most cases, six to eight treatments are recommended, spaced one to two weeks apart, to produce the desired results. Patients begin to see results after the first couple of treatments.

Who will benefit from it?

If you are 10-20 lbs overweight, are showing early signs of aging, or have hit a plateau with regular diet and exercise, you would likely benefit from Exilis treatments. Patients with certain medical conditions, who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a metal implant, may be excluded.

When Can I Start Treatment?

Treatment can begin soon after your free consultation to determine if SculpSure or Exilis is right for your fat reduction or skin tightening goals.

Patients who do not meet the criteria for these noninvasive treatments may benefit from surgical procedures such as a Tummy Tuck or Liposuction to provide the youthful appearance you desire.

Who is a Good Candidate?

Ideal candidates are in good physical health and are looking to contour their body rather than lose weight.

How Much Does it Cost?

Your all-inclusive quote will include the surgeon’s fee, anesthesia costs, facility fees, supplies, and all routine follow-up visits.
