What Is SculpSure Body Sculpting?

SculpSure Body Sculpting is a non-invasive laser fat reduction treatment designed to reduce stubborn fat in targeted areas. It uses controlled laser energy to heat fat cells beneath the skin while keeping the treatment experience comfortable with cooling technology.

For patients wondering how to remove stubborn fat without surgery, SculpSure may be a helpful option when certain areas do not respond well to healthy eating and regular exercise. It is commonly used for body contouring in areas such as the abdomen, flanks, back, inner thighs, outer thighs, and under the chin. The current Marta’s MediSpa page notes that SculpSure is FDA-cleared and can be used for areas including the abdomen, flanks, back, thighs, and neck.

SculpSure Fat Reduction is not a weight-loss treatment. It is intended for targeted fat loss in specific areas. At Dr. Marta Recasens’ MediSpa, Dr. Recasens evaluates your body shape, fat distribution, skin quality, and goals before recommending treatment.

How SculpSure Fat Reduction Works

Personal Consultation
Your treatment begins with a consultation with Dr. Recasens. She evaluates the areas you want to contour and determines whether SculpSure Glendale CA treatment is appropriate for your goals.
Treatment Area Selection
SculpSure may be used for areas such as the abdomen, flanks, back, thighs, and under-chin area. If your concern is Double Chin Reduction, Dr. Recasens may also discuss SculpSure Neck.
Laser Fat Removal Technology
SculpSure uses a 1060 nm laser wavelength to deliver heat beneath the skin and target unwanted fat cells. The current page notes that the system uses applicators that allow customized treatment placement on areas such as the abdomen and flanks.
Cooling for Comfort
The applicators alternate between warm and cool sensations. This helps maintain comfort while the laser energy treats the selected area.
Natural Elimination Process
After treatment, the body gradually processes the treated fat cells over time. Results develop gradually rather than instantly.

What to Expect: Before, During & After

Before

Before SculpSure, Dr. Recasens will review your medical history, current health, body goals, and prior treatments. She will help determine whether your concern is best addressed with Non-Surgical Fat Reduction, body skin tightening, or another body contouring option.

You do not need to be at your goal weight, but SculpSure is best for localized areas of stubborn fat rather than overall weight loss.

During

During treatment, SculpSure applicators are placed on the selected areas. You may feel cycles of warmth and cooling. Most patients describe the treatment as tolerable, with sensations of heat, tingling, or deep warmth.

The current page notes that SculpSure laser fat reduction treatments last less than 30 minutes and can treat multiple areas at the same time.

After

After treatment, mild tenderness, redness, swelling, tingling, or temporary numbness may occur. Most patients can return to normal daily activities quickly. The current service page notes that patients are generally able to return to normal activities immediately after treatment, with no required downtime for many people.

Individual results may vary.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for SculpSure if you are close to your preferred weight but have stubborn fat that does not improve enough with diet and exercise. Many patients seek SculpSure for Abdomen Fat Reduction, love handles, Back Fat Removal, thigh contouring, or small areas of under-chin fullness.

SculpSure may be a good fit if you want body sculpting without surgery, anesthesia, or extended recovery. It is best for patients with realistic expectations who understand that results appear gradually.

This treatment may not be suitable for everyone. Patients who are pregnant, have certain medical conditions, have very loose skin, or need significant weight loss may need a different plan. If body skin tightening is your main concern, Dr. Recasens may discuss other treatments such as FlexSure or radiofrequency-based options.

Why Choose Dr. Marta Recasens?

Body contouring is not just about choosing a device. The best plan depends on where fat is located, how the skin looks, and what kind of result will look natural on your body.

Dr. Marta Recasens is a board-certified physician, M.D., Q.M.E., and fellowship-trained vitreoretinal surgeon with over 37 years of medical experience. Her physician-led approach helps patients understand what SculpSure can and cannot do before treatment begins.

At Dr. Marta Recasens’ MediSpa, your treatment plan is personalized. Dr. Recasens evaluates your body shape, discusses realistic expectations, and recommends treatment only when it fits your goals. The practice is located at 1111 North Brand Blvd, Suite 320, Glendale, CA 91202, serving patients from Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, and the greater Los Angeles area.

Results: What You Can Expect

SculpSure results develop gradually as the body processes treated fat cells. Some patients may begin noticing changes within several weeks, while the current page notes that best results are typically seen around 12 weeks after treatment.

Clinical studies cited on the current page report up to a 24 percent reduction in fat in treated areas. Results vary based on the treatment area, number of sessions, metabolism, and body composition.

SculpSure can help improve contour, but it is not a substitute for weight loss, healthy habits, or surgical skin removal. Individual results may vary.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does SculpSure Body Sculpting work?

SculpSure uses laser energy to heat and target fat cells beneath the skin. Over time, the body naturally clears the treated fat cells. Dr. Recasens customizes the treatment area and applicator placement based on your body shape and goals.

Is SculpSure the same as weight loss?

No. SculpSure is for targeted fat loss, not overall weight loss. It works best for localized areas of stubborn fat, such as the abdomen, flanks, back, thighs, or under the chin.

Can SculpSure help with abdomen fat reduction?

Yes, SculpSure may be used for Abdomen Fat Reduction when the concern is a localized pocket of fat. Dr. Recasens will evaluate whether your abdomen is a good treatment area and whether your skin quality supports the expected result.

Is laser fat removal painful?

Most patients describe SculpSure as warm, tingling, or mildly intense at certain points, but generally tolerable. The device uses cooling technology to help with comfort during treatment.

How long does a SculpSure treatment take?

The current SculpSure page notes that each treatment lasts less than 30 minutes. Appointment time may vary depending on consultation, preparation, number of areas, and post-treatment instructions.

Does SculpSure tighten skin?
