Stubborn areas of fat resistant to exercise are discouraging. While there is no substitute for consistent exercise and a healthy diet, a new and innovative treatment exists to target stubborn fat and improve health.
UltraSculpt uses the same principles of exercise and muscle building combined with state-of-the-art technology and science. Even more exciting, the treatment offers health benefits during the normal course of treatment.*
Who Can Benefit From UltraSculpt?
Both men and women are good candidates for this non-invasive body contouring cosmetic treatment. It may be an alternative to liposuction and other fat reduction and body shaping procedures.
As a result of researching many systems, Dr. Chernoff is able to determine the treatments most effective for each specific concern. For example, cellulite is best addressed with bipolar radio frequency combined with lymphatic stimulation and drainage. UltraSculpt has demonstrated outstanding results for circumferential reduction, weight loss, improved muscle endurance, and health improvement.
Before any of Dr. Chernoff’s patients consider fat reducing treatments, he reminds patients that these treatments are not a replacement for regular exercise and proper nutrition. Individuals with stubborn areas of fat and who exercise regularly are the best candidates for these procedures.
If a certain area of body fat has not responded to diet and exercise–areas such as women’s thighs and men’s love handles–UltraSculpt may be the right choice. Patients living a healthy lifestyle including diet and exercise, in addition to having the procedure, will have the best results.
Prior to any treatment or procedure, Dr. Chernoff or one of our trained and certified Health Care Providers determine if you are a candidate, review the risk and benefits, and provide all possible treatment alternatives.
What is UltraSculpt?
UltraSculpt is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure used to reduce fat cells in targeted areas of the body. The procedure results in helping patients achieve a more sleek and toned appearance to the treated areas.* UltraSculpt is commonly used on the lower abdomen, thighs, buttocks, inner knees, upper arms, excessive male breast tissue and flanks. It also works on small problem areas like under the chin. UltraSculpt uses your fat as fuel, burning stubborn fat and strengthening muscles.
How Does UltraSculpt Work?
The UltraSculpt treatment combines two techniques. First, ultrasound waves penetrate deep in the tissue, vibrating and weakening the fat cells. Next, Bio-stimulation provides deep and high intensity muscle contraction and stimulation, similar to EMSCULPT® technology, reaches deep fibers, comparable to doing 20,000 muscle building repetitions.*
UltraSculpt is unique since it uses the muscle stimulation unlike other available systems. Other available treatments include:
- CoolSculpting® uses cold to freeze and destroy fat cells.
- CoolTone™ uses manganic muscle stimulation.
- Laser therapy uses light-based energy to reduce the size of fat cells and fat chambers.
- Monopolar & Bipolar Radio Frequency (RF) use electoral waves that pass through the top layer of the skin into the sub-dermal collagen layer to tighten the skin and reduce cellulite, and finally into the subcutaneous fatty layer to improve the tone and texture of skin.
- Lymphatic Stimulation uses precise heating, suction, and specifically designed rollers to smooth out the skin to facilitate safe and efficient heat energy delivery. The procedures increase the metabolism of stored fat and promote lymphatic drainage.
While Dr. Greg Chernoff, Medical Director of Chernoff Cosmetic Surgery in Santa Rosa uses all of the above treatments; as well as options that combine several of the therapeutic treatments together. Each treatment targets specific body areas and conditions and are selected based on the patients’ individual needs.
What Are the Results of UltraSculpt
There is no downtime with UltraSculpt. There is no bruising or swelling which is commonly seen after liposuction and no post-procedure compression garments are needed.*
In addition to an improved physique, our patients have experienced improved strength, physical endurance, and health benefits from the UltraSculpt. Dr. Chernoff’s health data compiled from the clinical study shows decreased BMI, decreased cholesterol, decreased blood glucose, and improved lipids. Additionally, our patients say they feel invigorated after the treatment due to endorphins released; similar to the feeling after a good workout.*
