Post Op Care

Legacy Wellness Lounge Med Spa body contouring treatments are procedures that destroy fat cells in various ways. All treatments aim to reduce or remove stubborn pockets of fat without surgery in different areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, bottom, thighs and upper arms.

Surgical liposuction procedures differ from nonsurgical body contouring primarily because nonsurgical fat removal treatments do not require incisions, stitches, anesthesia or lengthy recovery times. Non invasive fat removal procedures aren’t intended to be weight loss solutions. Some of the procedures work by freezing fat cells, others use penetrated heat through radiofrequency and more. Once the fat has been moved outside cells, the lipose is assimilated by the body and eventually removed via natural processes. Instead of being a weight-loss solution, nonsurgical body contouring treatments supplement in lifestyle shifts, helping you along your self-love journey.

There are virtually little to no side effects. Patients report minimal discomfort with no down time. The only sensation some patients report is an “awareness” of something on the skin, perhaps a slight tingling, but never pain. The best candidates for nonsurgical fat reduction treatments are those who have particular problem areas (e.g., muffin top), but are not morbidly overweight. Patients must be willing to undergo a strict diet and light cardio both before and after treatments.
