What is SculpSure?

SculpSure is a body contouring system that uses a non-invasive laser device. The SculpSure device targets and permanently2,5eliminates fat cells through a process called non-invasive lipolysis. This treatment is intended for reduction of stubborn fat in areas such as the belly, love handles, back, thighs and under the chin. .

How does it work?

SculpSure uses laser to destroy fat cells. During treatment, the licenced practitioner will wrap the SculpSure device around the patient and deliver a 1060nm laser that reaches temperatures between 42oCto 47oC. This amount of heat is optimal to destroy the fat cells without harming neighbouring tissues2.

The SculpSure device will deliver a cooling effect throughout the treatment, while the laser cycles on and off. This helps to ensure the skin is kept comfortable. This process leads to patients feeling a deep warmth and/or a tingling sensation intermittently. The treatment lasts for 25 minutes and patients are able to go about their daily activities with no post-treatments downtime necessary.

How effective is it?

Clinical data from Cynosure show an average of 24% reduction of fat in the treated area after a single session5. Furthermore, studies show that lipolysis done using a 1060 nm laser lead to an average fat reduction of 2.6mm, with over 96% of participants saying they were satisfied with the treatment1,3.

Crucially, the SculpSure device is designed to distribute heat beyond the edges of the treatment area. This ensures that the treatment produces a natural, contoured look.

Is it safe?

The deep warmth and/or tingling sensations experienced during treatment is generally well-tolerated. Clinical data and studies report a mild discomfort(average of 3.7 discomfort rating on a scale of 1 – 10)

Although uncommon, patients do report mild side effects like temporary tenderness, swelling, or tissue firmness in the treatment area.
