Who Is a Good Candidate for Body Contouring?

Here at Wellskin Medical Spa in Dallas, TX, we are dedicated to helping our patients achieve refreshed appearances and improved complexions. We’ve been enhancing patients’ bodies without surgery, scarring, or downtime since the first day of our practice. It’s important to us to make an effort in building trusting relationships with all of our clients, and we can only do this if we offer the best Body Contouring.

Imagine a future where you can say goodbye to stubborn pockets of fat, cellulite, and sagging skin. Our state-of-the-art body contouring treatments, backed by years of research and expertise, can help you realize that vision. Our innovative treatments can target specific areas of concern, enhance your natural curves, and restore your body’s youthful contours. We invite you to embark on this transformative journey with us, as we empower you to love the skin you’re in.

Am I an Ideal Candidate for Body Contouring?

Patients who are looking to receive CoolSculpting® will be ideal candidates if they are already close to their desired weight and they want to address persistent pockets of excess fat that they can’t get rid of using lifestyle changes. For those interested in the Reaction™ treatment, ideal candidates will want to reduce the appearance of cellulite or stretchmarks around their abdomen or thighs. For Pellevé® patients, anyone looking to banish wrinkles or deep creases is perfect for treatment.

For a plasma pen treatment, the best candidate is looking to even out the tone and texture of their skin by eradicating acne, scars, and spots. Those considering the SkinTyte® treatment will want to correct skin laxity and repair discoloration from conditions such as rosacea. ZWave patients are most likely dealing with weaknesses in the connective tissues of places such as the upper arms. All of these treatments are excellent alternatives to more invasive surgical skin rejuvenating treatments.

Who Is Exempt From Candidacy?

It’s crucial to note that individuals who are currently pregnant or breastfeeding should postpone body contouring treatments until a more appropriate time, as they can potentially affect both mother and baby. Additionally, those with certain medical conditions or contraindications may not be suitable candidates. These conditions can include but are not limited to uncontrolled diabetes, bleeding disorders, active infections, and certain autoimmune disorders.

Those who have ever had hypertrophic or keloid scarring, and those who are allergic to topical anesthetic should talk with their doctor before receiving treatment. Those who have infections at or near the treatment site should wait until the infection has completely cleared before undergoing their session. At your consultation with us, we’ll make sure we discuss any and all of these possible exemptions from candidacy.

The Contouring Treatment Options Available to You

CoolSculpting®

Freeze Fat for a Fabulous Figure

This cutting-edge treatment targets and eliminates stubborn fat cells to help you achieve the contoured physique you desire. The technique used in CoolSculpting® freezes fat cells without damaging the surrounding tissues. During the treatment, a specialized applicator is placed on the targeted area, gently delivering controlled cooling to crystallize the fat cells beneath the skin’s surface. Over time, your body naturally eliminates these crystallized fat cells, gradually revealing a more sculpted and toned appearance.

One of the best aspects of CoolSculpting® is its versatility. It can address various problem areas, including the abdomen, flanks, thighs, upper arms, double chin, and more. Whether you’re seeking to banish love handles, tame stubborn belly bulges, or redefine your jawline, CoolSculpting® can help you achieve your goals. The treatment itself is comfortable and convenient, allowing you to relax and unwind during sessions. Since no downtime is required, you can return to your regular activities immediately after the session.

Reaction™

A Remarkable Remedy To Revitalize and Renew

This revolutionary technology combines the power of bi-polar radio frequency (RF) energy and vacuum therapy to deliver exceptional skin rejuvenation and body contouring results. The Reaction™ treatment is designed to target a wide range of aesthetic concerns, including cellulite reduction, skin tightening, and wrinkle reduction. By using controlled RF energy, the device gently heats the deep layers of your skin, stimulating collagen production and improving circulation. This unique treatment technique results in a firmer and smoother appearance to the skin.

What sets Reaction™ apart is its multi-frequency technology, allowing for precise and customizable treatments. The device’s unique vacuum therapy enhances the effectiveness of the RF energy by facilitating deeper penetration and maximizing the treatment’s efficiency. During the treatment session, the device is applied to the targeted areas, delivering a pleasant warm sensation. The treatment is non-invasive, comfortable, and requires no downtime. Over time, as your body adapts, you can expect to see gradual improvements in skin texture, elasticity, and contour.

Pellevé® RF Wrinkle Reduction

Procure Pristine Pores

This is a radio-frequency treatment that targets and eradicates the appearance of even the deepest wrinkles and fine lines. While you’re undergoing the treatment, we’ll use a specialized handpiece to deliver controlled radio-frequency energy deep into the layers of your skin. This gentle heating stimulates the production of collagen and triggers the skin’s natural regenerative processes. The result is a noticeable reduction in wrinkles. We love this treatment because it heats the targeted areas without causing damage to surrounding tissues.

This treatment is also completely non-invasive and needs no downtime. Over time, as your body continues to produce new collagen, you will witness the full benefits of Pellevé®. Your skin will appear smoother, more refreshed, and rejuvenated. Results are long-lasting, making Pellevé® a popular choice for individuals seeking non-surgical wrinkle reduction solutions.

Plasma Pen

Possess Perfect Skin With a Precision Pen

This is a skin-tightening and rejuvenating treatment that harnesses the power of electrical discharges to deliver controlled plasma gas onto the surface of your skin. This stimulates cellular regeneration and revitalizes your complexion. The plasma pen treatment is designed to address a variety of aesthetic concerns, including wrinkle reduction, scar revision, and pigmentation correction. By precisely targeting specific areas, the pen activates the natural healing process, promoting collagen production and encouraging the formation of new, healthy skin cells.

During this body contouring treatment, we delicately maneuver the pen across your skin, creating tiny dots that generate a tightening effect. The electrical discharge produces a sensation similar to a mild heat or tingling, ensuring minimal discomfort. The treatment is non-invasive, and there is little to no downtime required, allowing you to resume your daily activities without interruption. Over the following weeks, you will notice gradual improvements in your skin’s texture, firmness, and overall appearance.

SkinTyte®

Tighten and Transform Tissues

This non-invasive treatment uses advanced infrared technology to tighten and firm your skin in order to smooth out bumps from acne or scars and correct discoloration from conditions such as melasma. During the SkinTyte® treatment, we will precisely administer pulses of infrared light to the targeted areas of your skin. This unique energy penetrates deep into the dermal layers, stimulating collagen and promoting new tissue growth. This versatile treatment can be used on the face, neck, abdomen, arms, and thighs.

The treatment is particularly effective for tightening skin laxity and diminishing age spots, sun spots, and spider veins. Many of our patients find that this treatment is effective both for current acne problems as well as the scars acne can leave behind. Most individuals find they need four to six appointments every few weeks. Within weeks after each treatment session, you’ll notice steady improvements in skin tightness.

ZWave

Sensational Shockwave Spa Treatment

It was discovered that radial shockwaves were very effective at encouraging upticks in collagen production, restructuring/strengthening connective tissues, and improving circulation in patients. The ZWave treatment is the product of that success. The shockwaves are powerful enough to penetrate the skin’s deeper layers and break down fat cells without hurting the skin or tissues. These shockwaves also act as a manual metabolism kick-starter, causing fat reduction and improved skin texture in patients who received this treatment.

Patients can enjoy this treatment on its own, but they can also choose to pair it with another treatment to enhance both treatments’ effectiveness and produce more dramatic results. For example, some patients have discovered that their bodies respond more to their previous CoolSculpting® treatment after they’ve undergone ZWave.
