SculpSure™ is a non-invasive laser lipo technique that can remove unsightly fat deposits from the flanks, abdomen, thighs, legs, and upper body for long-lasting results. These areas often prove the most difficult for patients looking to slim down their shape. Despite your best dieting and exercise efforts, stubborn fat may remain, causing love handles, muffin tops, flanks, or excess body fat. SculpSure™ is a belly fat treatment that uses laser fat removal techniques to trim and sculpt the body with precision.
SculpSure™ uses hyperthermic laser technology to target fat cells in under a half hour. Heat from the SculpSure™ laser can eliminate belly fat for a slimmer waistline without the downtime of traditional body sculpting or liposuction techniques. Drs. Elie and Jody Levine offer this innovative solution to reduce flanks, abdominal fat, and fat deposits around the body non-surgically in New York City.

The SculpSure™ machine utilizes laser energy to achieve non-invasive fat removal results. SculpSure™ technology uses specialized applicators to deliver heat energy to target areas. Up to 4 applicators can be used simultaneously to treat fat deposits. These applicators are positioned above the surface of the skin and fastened with straps to keep them in place. Next, the SculpSure™ laser generates heat energy that is delivered from the SculpSure™ machine through the applicators. Heat from the laser begins disrupting fat cells and loosening them from the surrounding tissues. These cells are then processed and removed by the body over time. The SculpSure™ machine is equipped with a cooling mechanism that is applied to the skin’s surface during treatment to reduce discomfort during your laser lipo procedure.

SculpSure™ can be used alongside other liposuction procedures to provide optimal results, including VASER® LipoSelection, SmartLipo®, power assisted liposuction, tumescent lipo, and super wet liposuction. Additionally, SculpSure™ can complement other body contouring techniques. Dr. Levine will discuss with you which procedures may best enhance your SculpSure™ results.
Patients seeking non-invasive laser fat removal to sculpt the midsection, flanks, thighs, legs, and upper body are good candidates for SculpSure™ treatment. Ideal candidates who undergo non-surgical fat reduction will have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or below. SculpSure™ is not designed to be a weight loss procedure or remove large volumes of fat; those seeking substantial fat reduction can learn more about the assortment of liposuction options we offer here.
SculpSure™ can slim down the waistline and add shape and definition to your physique. Those seeking a non-invasive body sculpting method without the downtime or recovery of surgery or traditional liposuction can opt for SculpSure™ to achieve fat reduction results. Dr. Levine can advise you as to whether SculpSure™ is the right procedure to satisfy your particular needs and treatment goals.
The exact number of SculpSure™ treatments required to achieve optimal results varies from patient to patient. Many patients need to undergo just one SculpSure™ procedure for significant results. Dr. Levine can discuss how many SculpSure™ treatments will be necessary for you to see the best results possible.
Patients do not require anesthesia while undergoing SculpSure™ treatment. SculpSure™ is completely non-invasive, so patients do not need to worry about incisions or stitches during their procedure. SculpSure™ involves minimal discomfort during treatment and the SculpSure™ applicators provide cooling to soothe the skin while targeting fat cells.
Patients are free to go about their day after completing SculpSure™ treatment. There may be some mild discomfort or tightness at the treatment site; these side effects should subside in the week following your SculpSure™ procedure.
SculpSure™ can yield long-lasting laser fat reduction results for patients. Once fat cells are eliminated from the body following treatment, they cannot re-enter the system. However, it is possible for excess fat cells to once again accumulate, due to weight gain, aging, or genetics. In order to help sustain your SculpSure™ results, patients are encouraged to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Following a dedicated diet and exercise plan can accentuate your new look after your SculpSure™ procedure.
In order to maximize your SculpSure™ laser fat removal results, it is important to follow all pre and post-operative instructions provided by Dr. Levine.
Pre-Care
Certain products and supplements should be avoided in the weeks prior to your SculpSure™ procedure, unless medically necessary. By doing so, patients minimize their risk of bruising and swelling. Blood-thinners and medications that contain ibuprofen or aspirin should be avoided. Patients should also refrain from taking multivitamins and herbal supplements.
Post-Procedure
Medications, such as Tylenol, Bromelain, and Arnica Montana, may be recommended to alleviate pain or discomfort post-procedure. For more detail regarding our post-treatment care suggestions, click here.
