Stubborn fat cells don’t always respond to traditional weight loss approaches, and even if they do, you may not achieve your desired results. At BodyPoint Medspa, in Lehi, UT, we offer liposuction for fat removal to help patients eliminate stubborn fat cells permanently, but we don’t stop there. We can combine this effective body contouring treatment with other perfecting treatments like BodyTite and Morpheus8 to help contour treatment areas and deliver skin tightening benefits.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a procedure that contours the body by eliminating excess stubborn fat cells through surgical techniques. It’s a minimally invasive procedure, but the results are permanent and dramatic. Those who have been working out, eating healthy, and committing to a healthy lifestyle but still aren’t seeing results can benefit from this body contouring approach.
How It Works
At BodyPoint Medspa, we use tumescent anesthesia during this procedure to reduce discomfort and accelerate the healing process. During the procedure, we’ll insert the microcannula into a small incision and inject fluid anesthesia to help promote comfort and gently remove fat cells to facilitate optimal results. The cannula will gently suction fat cells from the body, and the good news is that they can’t return or regrow once they’re gone.
Combining Treatments: Liposuction, BodyTite, and Morpheus8
Our body contouring procedure doesn’t end with liposuction. Instead, we use multiple treatments in combination with lipo to help patients achieve the best results. Liposuction alone won’t tighten loose skin. Whether you have skin laxity due to weight loss or aging, we can address it by using different devices that use radiofrequency energy to heat the dermal layers of the skin, tighten existing collagen, and force the body to grow new elastin and collagen.
We can use a combination of BodyTite and Morpheus8 alongside lipo at Body Point to help patients achieve the best possible results. We take a 360-degree approach to body contouring to ensure that our patients’ results exceed their expectations. These different treatments can customize your liposuction procedure to help create your ideal contours and tighten the skin for the best outcome.
The Treatment Process
This body contouring treatment process begins with an initial consultation. We will schedule an appointment where you will meet with us to discuss your ultimate fat removal and skin tightening goals, and we can evaluate your planned treatment areas in person. We will also ask you some medical-related questions to learn more about your health history.
It’s important that you are in good health, have realistic expectations about the outcome of the treatment process, and are committed to maintaining your results long-term. Once we confirm that you are a good treatment candidate, we can customize your treatment plan with a combination of lipo, Morpheus8, and BodyTite.
Fat Removal With Liposuction
Lipo is the primary technique used in this body contouring treatment process because it can effectively remove fat cells from the body. The cannula gently removes unwanted fat cells directly from your treatment area. This minimally invasive procedure delivers permanent results because, as an adult, you have all the fat cells in your body, and while they may expand or contract with weight gain and weight loss, your body cannot grow new ones.
It’s important to note that any remaining fat cells in the treatment area may expand if you gain weight, so you must be committed to a healthy lifestyle after this procedure to ensure permanent results.
Body Contouring With BodyTite
Lipo alone delivers some incredible results, but we take the results to the next level by combining this procedure with a treatment called BodyTite. This treatment device has two probes, one which is inserted just below the skin’s surface and another that rests on the top of the skin and moves across the surface during treatment. The device uses radiofrequency heat energy to remodel the tissue and tighten the skin.
It also helps with fat removal by heating the fat cells, which results in cell death. Once those cells die, if they remain in the body, the body will slowly eliminate them through the lymphatic system over time. Using BodyTite alongside this procedure can help maximize fat removal and deliver skin tightening benefits. The radiofrequency energy also helps stimulate collagen production, which will strengthen the structure of the skin and help it look and feel tighter.
Skin Tightening With Morpheus8
We also use Morpheus8 during this treatment process to target skin laxity. This skin tightening treatment combines microneedling techniques and radiofrequency energy to promote collagen synthesis. As you age, your body naturally produces less collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are important proteins that help the skin look and feel tight, healthy, and youthful.
This treatment device uses radiofrequency energy and microneedles to stimulate collagen production by heating the dermal tissues and creating micro-injuries in the skin with the needles. The body responds to the treatment process by healing the treatment area with new collagen and elastin.
Am I a Candidate?
If you’re looking for a treatment plan that can help with fat removal and deliver skin tightening results, you may be the perfect candidate for liposuction with BodyTite and Morpheus8. This treatment process can help you target stubborn fat or loose skin virtually anywhere on the body. The treatments used are safe and effective; post-treatment, you will notice visible improvements in your treatment area.
Is There Downtime?
Morpheus8 and BodyTite are minimally invasive treatments that require very little downtime. Lipo is a surgical procedure, but we reduce and accelerate recovery and healing because we use tumescent anesthesia during the procedure.
You’ll need to rest for a few days and avoid strenuous activity immediately following the treatment process, but you’ll be back to your normal daily activities before you know it. We can give you details about what to expect and what to avoid after the treatment process so that you are fully prepared on the day of your appointment.
