Know Your Options for Body Sculpting

Whether you’ve lost weight and want to target those last few pockets of fat, or you hope to tighten and tone your muscles, we have treatments to help you shape your body, so you can feel confident in your physique.

At Medical Grade Aesthetics, we understand that every patient has different needs, and we can customize our treatments to help you accomplish your unique goals.

That’s why we offer a variety of services for body sculpting in Beloit. In this blog, we’ll talk about different methods of body sculpting and break them down with a side-by-side analysis to help you determine which one might be right for you.

What is body sculpting?

“Body sculpting” refers to aesthetic procedures that reshape and improve the appearance of certain areas of the body. This can mean targeting pockets of stubborn fat, improving muscle tone, and even tightening lax skin.

Treatments for body sculpting can include noninvasive services like Emsculpt NEO or Exion, or invasive procedures like liposuction. It’s always best to compare your options with an experienced provider you trust to see which service best suits your needs and preferences.

Your Body Sculpting Options

Your provider will help you determine the best treatments based on your concerns, needs, and medical history. Here are the options we offer for body sculpting in Beloit.

Emsculpt NEO

Emsculpt NEO is a non-invasive body sculpting treatment that combines radiofrequency with HIFEM (high-intensity focused electromagnetic) energy to build muscle and melt fat. Through strategically placed applicators, the device delivers both HIFEM and radiofrequency simultaneously.

The radiofrequency generates heat, especially within the subcutaneous layer of skin that contains stubborn fat cells. Some fat helps protect your muscles and connective tissue, but too much can prevent some patients from feeling confident in their appearance. So, Emsculpt NEO uses heat to break apart the exterior membranes of the fat cells, causing them to die. Over time, your body flushes out those dead cells, helping shrink pockets of fat for a slimmer appearance.

At the same time, Emsculpt NEO creates small electrical currents to stimulate about 20,000 muscle contractions in one 30-minute session. This “works out” your muscles much more rapidly and intensely than you could on your own, building up muscle mass and improving muscle tone.

Emsculpt NEO can be used all over the body to target specific areas like the abdomen, flanks, arms, legs, and buttocks—so we can treat almost any place or places you have concerns.

It is important to note that Emsculpt NEO is only a treatment for body sculpting in Beloit—not a weight loss treatment. While it can enhance the results of weight loss treatments, it only targets specific areas of stubborn fat rather than whole-body transformations.Emsculpt Neo should always be paired with accompanying lifestyle changes to see the best results possible.,.

If you are losing weight in other ways and approaching your goal weight, you can use Emsculpt NEO to improve muscle mass and remove fat from any remaining trouble spots. Emsculpt NEO can increase muscle mass by 25% and can decrease targeted fat by up to 30%. Some studies showed Emsculpt NEO could shrink waist circumference by 5.9cm, around 1 dress size.

Fat-Dissolving Injections

If you are looking to target stubborn fat without improving muscle tone, then you might benefit more from fat-dissolving injections. These injections use deoxycholic acid to break down the membranes of the fat cells in the targeted area. This causes the fat cells to die and leave the body naturally, creating a slimmer appearance.

If you choose this treatment for body sculpting in Beloit, note that fat-dissolving injections are used only to target submental (chin) fat and the fat around the bra line. If you are looking to dissolve fat on other areas of your body, your provider will most likely suggest other treatment options.

It’s also important to note that you should not try to use fat-dissolving injections for weight loss. While this method could be used alongside a weight loss program, fat-dissolving injections target small, specific pockets of stubborn fat rather than overall excess weight.

RF Microneedling

If you have finished your weight loss journey and have some mild-to-moderate skin laxity, your provider may talk to you about RF microneedling. This treatment for body sculpting in Beloit combines radiofrequency energy with microneedling to tighten sagging skin and melt stubborn fat for a slimmer, smoother physique.

This device simultaneously delivers radiofrequency while using needles to create tiny “microchannels” in your skin. The needles can penetrate as deep as 6mm into the skin, and the radiofrequency to penetrate as deep as 8mm, so it can reach the deeper layers of your skin.

The microneedling stimulates your body’s natural healing response, increasing your skin’s production of collagen and elastin. Your body produces collagen and elastin proteins to keep your skin, muscles, and tissues stretchy and flexible. Your collagen and elastin decrease as you age, but treatments like RF microneedling can help increase and maintain ideal protein production. This creates smoother skin for a more youthful look.

Meanwhile, the radiofrequency generates gentle heat that warms excess fat stored in the lower layers of your skin. The heat breaks down the walls of the fat cells, causing them to die so your body can flush them out. This process shrinks pockets of fat in the targeted areas and helps patients feel confident in their bodies.

30 to 60 minutes Yes 1 to 2 days 3 6 to 12 months

 

SlimDown Medical Weight Loss

This treatment for body sculpting in Beloit doesn’t just target specific areas of body fat, it helps with overall weight loss. SlimDown Medical Weight Loss uses semaglutide injections to minimize hunger and prevent unnecessary snacking.

Semaglutide works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone, which your stomach naturally produces as you eat. This hormone tells your brain when you are full and stops you from feeling hungry. With more of the GLP-1 hormone in your body, you feel fuller for longer, which helps you minimize your meals, control cravings, and stop unnecessary snacking. As you eat less food and stay in a calorie deficit, you can lose weight much more easily than you would without semaglutide.

While semaglutide works effectively for many patients, it’s important to know that you will only see lasting results if you pair semaglutide injections with lifestyle changes. Eating a healthy, balanced diet, drinking plenty of water, and exercising regularly will help you achieve sustainable results. Without these changes, you are most likely to gain back most of the weight you lose once you stop taking the injections.

Exion Body

The Exion device helps improve skin laxity and melt stubborn fat. This device works by combining radiofrequency with targeted ultrasound. Both generate heat that penetrates deep into the skin to target the lower layers of skin and fat.

The heat Exion generates causes your body to believe it is injured without creating any external wound. So your body increases collagen and elastin production to “heal” that injury, creating newer, healthier, and smoother skin.

The heat also breaks down the walls of fat cells stored in the subcutaneous layer of your skin, causing them to self-destruct and leave your body as waste. Exion is one of our most popular treatments for body sculpting in Beloit, because of how effectively it treats both skin laxity and stubborn fat—without using invasive methods. It is comfortable, quick, and delivers noticeable and lasting results.
