Body Contouring Methods

Description

Dr. Vishnu Rumalla discusses the benefits of blending surgical and non-surgical strategies to help body contouring patients achieve their aesthetic goals in the most effective manner. We make use of technologies like Morpheus8, CoolSculpt®, and CoolTone® to tighten skin, freeze deep fat, and stimulate muscle growth, respectively. These body contouring methods offer beautiful results with quick treatment times and minimal post-treatment recovery.

1 00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:12.671 As a surgeon, I often try to compare 2 00:00:12.672 --> 00:00:15.156 surgical approaches versus non-surgical 3 00:00:15.157 --> 00:00:17.514 or minimally invasive contouring strategies. 4 00:00:17.720 --> 00:00:21.029 In fact, I now believe they work hand in glove together. 5 00:00:21.240 --> 00:00:23.757 The power of the scalpel is long proven 6 00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:29.686 to remove tissue, thin tissue, reset tissue and repair tissue. 7 00:00:29.970 --> 00:00:32.000 Like I say, when I perform a tummy tuck, 8 00:00:32.210 --> 00:00:35.780 I'm making your bed, but I still got to make it with your comforter, 9 00:00:35.810 --> 00:00:37.992 with all its phrase and quilted pattern. 10 00:00:38.192 --> 00:00:41.257 This is where other strategies can have a powerful role. 11 00:00:43.529 --> 00:00:46.140 When it comes to minimally invasive body contouring, 12 00:00:46.170 --> 00:00:49.743 we have developed an approach called FIRE, ICE and TONE. 13 00:00:50.170 --> 00:00:52.271 FIRE is Morpheus8. 14 00:00:52.410 --> 00:00:56.557 CoolSculpt is ICE and CoolTone is the TONE. 15 00:00:58.245 --> 00:01:00.271 FIRE, the Morpheus8 is designed 16 00:01:00.272 --> 00:01:03.357 to contract the skin by increasing and tightening collagen, 17 00:01:03.643 --> 00:01:05.490 melt superficial fat to give 18 00:01:05.491 --> 00:01:09.386 a tighter, firmer, and sometimes smoother appearance to the skin. 19 00:01:09.930 --> 00:01:13.000 CoolSculpt is designed to freeze the deep fat. 20 00:01:13.134 --> 00:01:15.490 By administering a cycle of CoolSculpt, 21 00:01:15.520 --> 00:01:18.357 deep fat slowly dies over a few weeks to months, 22 00:01:18.571 --> 00:01:21.857 allowing the overlying skin to shrink some as well. 23 00:01:22.240 --> 00:01:26.529 Finally, CoolTone is direct muscle stimulation to grow muscle, 24 00:01:26.730 --> 00:01:30.457 strengthen muscle leading to shape enhancement and contour. 25 00:01:30.690 --> 00:01:34.180 All three of these procedures are performed without general anesthesia 26 00:01:34.210 --> 00:01:37.700 and patient can usually drive home and be on their own. 27 00:01:37.880 --> 00:01:40.329 People can also resume most activities, 28 00:01:40.330 --> 00:01:43.443 including showering, work and the gym the next day. 29 00:01:43.843 --> 00:01:46.786 We are able to use nitrous oxide, which is laughing gas 30 00:01:46.787 --> 00:01:48.957 and topical anesthetics for pain relief. 31 00:01:49.570 --> 00:01:52.014 We have competitively priced these services 32 00:01:52.114 --> 00:01:56.329 and have a pay-as-you-go model instead of trying to sell large packages. 33 00:01:56.570 --> 00:02:01.386 Come in for a complimentary consultation, and even have a free trial of CoolTone.
