SculpSure vs. Venus Legacy™: Which is Right for Me?

You’ve mostly completed your weight loss journey, getting your body within the range of your desired size or shape. But, some areas of your figure aren’t cooperating with your healthy diet and exercise approach. Some stubborn areas of body fat may not respond to diet and exercise alone.

So, do you need liposuction or another type of cosmetic weight loss surgery? Well, that’s an option, but you should also know that you have multiple non-surgical options available to you, as well.

At Lasercare Skin Clinic, our laser and medical spa team advises patients on the best procedures to achieve aesthetic goals. Led by Dr. Bruce Sanderson, the Lasercare Skin Clinic team offers nonsurgical body sculpting and contouring treatments like SculpSure and Venus Legacy™. We treat new and existing patients from the Little Rock, Arkansas, area.

Remove unwanted fat with SculpSure

SculpSure works well for people with a few stubborn remaining problem areas. It isn’t a weight loss procedure, and you need to be at or near your goal weight to be a good candidate for this type of treatment.

SculpSure uses targeted laser heat to liquefy and permanently destroy fat cells in treatment areas like your flanks and abdomen. Then, your body naturally eliminates destroyed fat cells over several weeks. 

You start to see results after six weeks, with full results appearing after about 12 weeks. You can also use multiple treatment sessions to fine-tune your shape even further.

It only takes about half an hour per treatment area to complete your SculpSure session, with treatment conducted by Lasercare Skin Clinic by aesthetician Natalie Sanderson. This type of treatment isn’t painful. You rest in comfort while laser energy moves through the four SculpSure applicators. We use bursts of cool air to keep you from feeling uncomfortably warm during treatment.

Use Venus Legacy for body contouring results

For some people, body contouring is all about lifting and firming. If that sounds like you, you should know more about body contouring treatment with the Venus Legacy system.

This type of body sculpting treatment effectively reduces fat pockets, water retention, and even cellulite in areas of your face and body using multipolar radio frequency energy and magnetic pulse therapy. At Lasercare Skin Clinic, we use both Venus Legacy and Venus Freeze™ technologies to sculpt and lift your body in your chosen treatment areas.

You can use Venus Legacy treatment to improve the firmness, definition, and appearance of your face, chest, upper back, lower back, love handles, abdomen, buttocks, thighs, and arms. The treatment stimulates your body to increase collagen production, which helps your skin’s firmness and elasticity.

You don’t need any downtime after this painless procedure and typically start to see results within a few weeks as new collagen develops.

Picking the right body shaping procedure

Depending on your aesthetic goals and other treatment concerns, different procedures may suit you. You may also benefit most from an approach that uses multiple treatment modalities.

Either way, the Lasercare Skin Clinic team provides expert advice, including accurate information about what to expect and any associated risks or side effects.
