SculpSure by Cynosure is a non-invasive body contouring treatment for lipolysis
(fat reduction) on the body and below the chin. Using advanced laser technology,
unwanted localised fat in the submental (chin) region can be reduced in just 25
minutes with no downtime. Cynosure’s Submental applicator is designed
perfectly for providing precise and effective treatments to create a slimmer
appearance of the chin and neck.
How Does It Work?
SculpSure is a quick, easy treatment with no special preparation or numbing
required. After cleansing the treatment area, SculpSure applicators are applied to
the skin, and 1060nm laser energy is delivered over the course of 25 minutes.
This laser wavelength has a specific affinity for adipose (fat) cells. The end result
is a heating of the fat cells, during which many are damaged. Over time, the body
naturally eliminates these disrupted fat cells. Results can be seen from around 6
weeks and optimal results usually seen at around 12 weeks. A single treatment
often brings about approximately 24% reduction of fat in the treated area,
however, this varies across individuals. The resulting heat from the laser energy
bypasses the surface of the skin to reach the fat cells below, with no surface
damage occurring. However, there is a secondary benefit of this deep heating
effect, which is the stimulation of collagen and elastin, creating a skin tightening
effect.
Is SculpSure Painful?
Many individuals experience SculpSure differently depending on their pain
thresholds. Some find the warming sensation pleasant, while others may find
some discomfort similar to a mild, dull pain in the area. SculpSure utilises
Advanced Contact Cooling to improve patient comfort, keeping the surface layers of the skin cold while the lower layers are heated. Immediately after the
treatment, you may find some mild tenderness and firmness will be experienced
in the treated area and usually resolved within a week.
How Many Treatments Do I Need?
Best results usually require 2-3 treatments, depending on the size and location of
the treatment area and the desired outcome. SculpSure offers permanent
reduction of your chin fat through selective fat cell death. However, excessive
weight gain following your treatment may reverse your results by expanding the
remaining fat cells in the area. Therefore, we recommend you follow a healthy
diet and exercise plan to limit dietary fat and maintain your results.
