Summer’s Best Body Shaping Solutions

Summer has arrived back in South Florida, and as temperatures rise, so do hemlines. And practically all of us, at this point, are reminded of the aesthetic and wellness goals we have for our body. A decent diet and appropriate exercise are always a crucial component for achieving and maintaining a body shape that looks as good as it feels, but with time constraints and limitations on what can be achieved, a little help from our advanced medspa solutions (and our new EMSCULPT Neo) can be the best and most reasonable approach to reach your body sculpting goals.

Skin Tone & Texture

As we move along in life, our skin becomes more fragile, a bit dimpled, and develops a crepe-like appearance. Collagen supplements are not going to improve this ever-evolving phenomenon, so please conserve resources on buying them! However, toning-up underlying muscles can help, but even bulked arms or legs will still develop crepey skin without a more science-based solution.

Cure: Venus Legacy. Its multipolar radio frequency technology comfortably heats the skin to destroy old cells while encouraging the growth of fresh, new, healthy cells. These cells result in new collagen that is more tightly wound, firmer, healthier, and of course, prettier. Commonly treated areas are the arms, thighs, abdomen, and décolleté. Treatments are done 1-2 weeks apart, and usually encompass a series of 8 treatments. Results often begin to maintain after the 4th treatment.

Unwanted Fat Pockets

Nearly everyone has an area of fat that just does not go away with diet or exercise. Often, it is the lower belly, flank area, bra fat, inner thighs, or knees. These areas can be downright frustrating to tackle – and that goes for everyone! But at Anushka, we have a solution.

Cure: SculpSure Laser. The SculpSure laser will eliminate unwanted fat in the targeted area. The laser heats up the fat cells to a temperature incompatible with cellular life. Over time, your lymph system will slowly remove the debris of the cells; eliminating them through the kidneys. In order for the laser to operate, the pads of the laser are in touch with the skin at all times, keeping the skin cool but allowing the heat to penetrate 1.5cm. To increase comfort, the laser heats and cools in cycles: 20 seconds of heat, followed by 10 seconds of cool. The entire treatment is only 25 minutes and each treatment blasts up to 25% of the fat in the targeted area.

Cure: Emsculpt NEO. Emsculpt NEO combines radiofrequency (RF) energy with high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy. During the treatment the energy is focused on the specific area (in this case the abdominal muscles) and the machine delivers energy that produce thousands of muscle contractions while also providing RF heat. This heat buildup, while not painful, is high enough to produce apoptosis (destruction) of fat cells. Not only are you developing a 6 pack, but you are gaining core strength that helps you maintain an excellent posture!

Sagging or Insufficient Butt

Let’s be honest: having a full, perky derriere is a prized commodity and offers a dose of confidence that’s hard to match. It’s no wonder that, especially more recently, people have focused on targeted techniques and exercises to quite substantially re-shape their butt. And this is a body part that can go through quite a transformation over one’s lifespan – expanding and deflating for one reason or another. Whether it is from aging, weight loss, or one’s genetics, a sagging booty can strip you of the confidence you once had.

Cure: Sculptra Brazilian Butt Lift. Sculptra is a collagen stimulant that can work wonders in areas that have deflated. The procedure is comfortable, quick, and can address whatever the issue is. Some patients have a side-indent that bothers them. Others need more of a “pick-me-up” from the top. Still, others prefer a more rounded, feminine look. Safer than implants (rarely done anymore due to horrific complications), and more predictable than fat transfer, Sculptra is the best way to perfect the beach booty.

Cure: Emsculpt NEO. Emsculpt NEO combines radiofrequency (RF) energy with high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy. During the treatment the energy is focused in the specific area (in this case the buttocks) and the machine delivers energy that produce thousands of muscle contractions while also providing RF heat. So you might think that doing thousands of contractions in a 30 minute period would result in a terribly sore derriere tomorrow. Since the machine knows this, it takes you through periods of simulations that flush the lactic acid build up (responsible for the pain the next day) out during the treatment. The following day you just feel “worked out” but with no pain.
