Excess Fat
Excess fat is a common problem. In many cases, small pockets of fat can be resistant to weight loss. No matter how much one diets or exercises, the stubborn areas of fat can remain e.g. under the chin, upper arms, around bra straps, lower abdomen, love-handles, thighs, knees and other areas. Whilst there are a number of non-surgical methods to reduce fat e.g. cryolipolysis (fat-freezing) and injection of fat-dissolving substances, the key to successful treatment is to ensure skin-tightening at the same time as fat-reduction. This can be achieved using subdermal radiofrequency; a treatment that melts fat and tightens the skin at the same time.
Treatment Options
Fat freezing or ‘cryolipolysis’ is an effective, non-invasive and pain-free treatment to remove excess fat. Common areas of treatment include neck, arms, bra area, back, flanks, abdomen and thighs. At the Dr Tatiana Clinic, we offer a ‘fire and ice’ combination programme that utilizes the fat-melting benefits of cryolipolysis with the skin-tightening benefits of radiofrequency to ensure you achieve a smooth and toned result.
Profound RF is a break-through technology used to treat skin sagging, wrinkles and excess fat on the face and neck. Known as the ‘non-surgical face lift’, Profound RF is an injectable radiofrequency treatment that tightens, smoothens, hydrates and melts fat. In clinical trials, Profound RF was found to deliver 1/3 of the result of a surgical facelift in a single treatment and that 100% of patients had a clinically evident response to treatment.
Morpheus 8 is a device that combines microneedling with radiofrequency heat energy to tighten the fat and overlying skin. As the small needles enter the skin and fat layers, the tips of the needles heat up with radiofrequency energy. This sends controlled heat energy into the targeted layer, causing contraction as well as collagen and elastin production, leading to tissue tightening. Morpheus 8 is safe for any skin type and can be used alongside other treatments such as dermal fillers.
Trusculpt is a non-surgical platform consisting of Trusculpt ID and Trusculpt Flex, that reduces fat and builds muscle. Trusculpt ID uses monopolar radiofrequency energy to target, heat and eliminate fat cells. Trusculpt flex uses multi-directional stimulation (MDS) technology to strengthen, firm and tone muscles.
BodyTite™ offers a safe and effective solution to lift and tighten loose skin whilst also reducing areas of unwanted fat. Common treatment areas include upper arms, sagging breasts, abdomen, flanks, buttocks and thighs. The FDA-approved devices utilise radiofrequency energy delivered via a thin cannula to heat the tissue to a specific temperature. This heat energy causes contraction of fat and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin to lift and tighten the skin. Using accurate temperature and energy sensing, we are able to monitor the treatment and ensure that we consistently deliver excellent results.
