Ask An Expert: Find the Perfect Complement to Non Invasive Fat Reduction

As a medical aesthetics provider, patient’s satisfaction is very important. This is why it is crucial to provide the most efficacious combo treatments on the market, so that patients can get the best results possible.

This is especially true for fat reduction when doing CoolSculpting and/or Vanquish Radio Frequency treatments. There’s no doubt that the demand for these type of treatments are high—in fact, fat reduction was the most in-demand non-surgical aesthetic treatment in 2018 after injectables. However, getting rid of the fat is just half of the battle. To fully satisfy patient’s body aesthetics goals, as a provider, you also need to tighten loose skin and further contour the body.

This is where Venus skin Radio Frequency skin tightening comes in. It is an add on treatment and patient’s come in each week for four to six times. It works to non-invasively tighten the skin, further slim body circumference, and smooth out demarcations where focal fat was not evenly reduced. Because the technology is safe for all skin types and skin tones, it can be used on any patients with no added downtime.

Radio Frequency is designed to help with Cellulite on the outer thighs too. Cellulite is characterized as lumpy, bumpy and irregular appearing skin. The nodular swellings of cellulite result from swollen clumps of fat that push up against the undersurface of the skin and these swollen clumps of fat must be addressed by this type of technology to help smooth the skin.

The precise cause of cellulite is unknown, but it is believed to be an abnormality of the microcirculation of the skin. The cause can also be from poor blood flow and oxygenation to the cellulite areas of the body which are the results over many years. The chronically poor oxygenation in the fat and swelling within the thigh fat compartment leads to inflammation. The swollen fat, trapped in the tight compartments begin to bulge, forming the characteristic nodules seen in cellulite. To correct Cellulite, several weekly Venus skin Radio Frequency treatments are recommended.
