Trending Body Treatments Dr. Heil Says Will Get You Summer Ready
Summer weather means less clothing, more bikinis, and heightened pressure to get “beach body ready.” But don’t fret; you can still attain your dream summer body with med spa treatments when the gym isn’t cutting it! You have options for treating unwanted loose skin, body hair, or lumpy texture when they stop you from feeling good in your skin.
Dr. Heil from Premier Plastic Surgery is here to tell you which trending body treatments will get you to summer ready.
Body Contouring for Cellulite and Fat Reduction
When cellulite and stubborn fat deposits don’t respond to a healthy diet and exercise, we’re here with some of the best minimally invasive and safe body contouring options. Body contouring, or body sculpting, reshapes an area of the body by:
● Removing or tightening loose, sagging skin
● Eliminating excess fat and cellulite
Some of the benefits of body contouring for cellulite and fat reduction include:
● Tighter, smoother, and firmer skin
● Minimally to non-invasive
● Requires no anesthetic
● No downtime required
● Impressive and long-lasting results
Dr. Heil’s favorite body contouring options include the following:
● CoolSculpting, which freezes fat cells so your body naturally flushes them
● Emsculpt NEO, a body sculpting technology that builds muscle mass while melting fat in one treatment
● Kybella, which is a deoxycholic acid injection that destroys fat cell membranes in your chin so your body naturally flushes them
Laser Hair Removal
Summer means showing skin and removing unwanted hair. Laser hair removal is the answer when you want constantly smooth legs and bikini lines without razor burn and irritation.
Laser hair removal targets the follicles with laser light, making removing unwanted hair easier and faster. This consistently trending treatment is safe, effective, and long-lasting, resulting in permanent hair reduction or removal. Laser hair removal treats the following body sites:
● Legs
● Bikini line
● Underarms
● Chest
● Back
● Shoulders
● Upper lip
Dr. Heil says that the Emvera and Sciton Laser Hair Removal systems provide the best results for all skin types and tones. Emvera significantly reduces treatment time and is virtually pain-free, delivering some of the most consistent and accurate hair removal results.
The Sciton Laser Hair Removal systems represent the cutting edge of permanent hair reduction. All hair removal devices by Sciton have been shown to safely, quickly, and effectively reduce unwanted hair follicles on any area of the body when used throughout the three phases of the hair growth cycle. These methods reach optimal temperatures to destroy hair follicles without affecting the surrounding skin, and are considered to be some of the most comfortable.
Laser hair removal benefits include the following:
● Long-lasting results
● It avoids ingrown hairs and irritation
● No scars or painful side effects
● Less maintenance than shaving and waxing
BOTOX
When posting selfies from your fantastic summer getaway, you don’t want to worry about lines and wrinkles! That’s where BOTOX, the original wrinkle relaxer, saves the summer.
BOTOX is a neuromodulator made from a purified protein. The injectable works beneath the skin’s surface, temporarily relaxing muscle activity to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Dr. Heil says the most common BOTOX injection sites include the following:
● Forehead wrinkles
● Crow’s feet
● Between the eyebrows
You’ll notice results within 24 to 48 hours, with full results in 30 days that last up to four months for moderate to severe frown lines. Some other BOTOX benefits include:
● Non-invasive anti-aging
● Convenient treatment length
● Reduced and prevents facial wrinkles
● Low-risk, customizable treatments
● Easily paired with other treatments, such as hyaluronic acid fillers, laser skin rejuvenation, and medical-grade skincare regimens
