5 Slimming Treatments That Don’t Require Surgery

By belo_site_admin on July 9, 2019

It’s no secret that, if you want to lose weight, you must be vigilant about watching your diet and burning calories through exercise. But sometimes your best efforts won’t be enough to get rid of deep and resistant fat deposits. Here’s how we can help.

“We have a variety of non-surgical slimming treatments for patients who fear surgical procedures, patients who are not medically cleared, or patients who have small amounts of fat on pinching,” says Dr. Eloi Buse, managing physician at Belo Medical Group. She goes on to say that those who have had liposuction done but retain minimal amounts of fat left in small areas are also perfect candidates for these treatments. 

1. Exilis

Tighten loose skin with Exilis! This uses radiofrequency to increase collagen and elastin production. It’s absolutely painless – you’ll just feel a warm sensation from the wand that circles around the targeted area. This helps liquify the fat, making it easier to contour the area to the patient’s preferred shape. 

Many of our patients have seen results as quick as after the session!

2. Emsculpt NEO

If sweating through 100 crunches a day and Pilates treatments are not enough to rid you of your stomach pooch, then you may want to consider Emsculpt NEO, a painless, non-invasive treatment that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy (HIFEM) to trigger intense muscle contractions and target fat loss in the stomach. A 30-minute session on the machine is equivalent to 20,000 muscle contractions or 20,000 sit-ups (i.e., your abdominal muscles are overworked but you won’t even have a single drop of sweat to show for it). The buttocks are another area marked for EmSculpt magic. This technology helps firm and lift the glutes minus the pain of excessive squatting. Talk about a life hack for achieving washboard abs and buns of steel!

3. Onda Coolwaves

One of our popular body contouring machines, Onda Coolwaves targets fat tissues, cellulite, and skin laxity. The machine is able to analyze the ample amount of heat and depth to bypass the skin’s top layer and accurately target fat cells.

4. iWave

iWave is our latest body slimming treatment at Belo. Almost similar to Onda Coolwaves, iWave, on the other hand, uses focused radial microwave (Microwave HyperO2 tech) and hyperbaric oxygen propulsion– that work to melt localized fat, treat cellulite, and tone the skin in specific regions of the body. It helps vibrate and melt fat cells deep underneath. No worries – it’s not uncomfortable!

5. V-Contour Ultra

V-Contour Ultra, a popular slimming treatment, is also ideal for targeting localized stubborn fat in the body. This injectable treatment stimulates lymphatic circulation and drainage, which breaks down fat cells and accelerates their natural release through urination or perspiration. 

Dr. Buse points out that, compared to liposuction, non-surgical results do not last as long, and that the permanency of results are—still—dependent on a patient’s diet and exercise.
