With the summer months upon us, we all want to feel as confident as possible. Feeling our best can oftentimes go hand in hand with putting that extra care into our appearance.
Feeling summer-ready is a much more attainable goal with medical aesthetics as a tool in your pocket! Now you don’t need to struggle mentally with problem areas on your body, as there’s a quick and easy way to kiss those body hang-ups goodbye. Say hello to body contouring.
In this blog, we will cover the body contouring options we provide, their benefits, and some frequently asked questions we often hear from our clients.
What is body contouring?
Body contouring is a nonsurgical procedure that reduces fat in the body in targeted areas. These treatments are used to reduce or remove stubborn pockets of fat to contour and shape different areas of the body. This is a great option for anyone who wants to target a specific area but isn’t wanting any downtime like they would experience from more invasive options.
Common treatment areas include abdomen, love handles, arms, thighs, and knees.
What kinds of body contouring are there?
Here at The Look Lab, we offer two options for body contouring options: FlexSure and SculpSure.
FlexSure is a treatment that is designed to curve and conform to your body, specifically targeting even the hardest-to-treat areas. It specifically targets even the hardest-to-treat areas. It uses radio-frequency and heat to target the dermis, which promotes collagen and elastin production. This then tightens the skin by giving it increased structure. It features the world’s first flexible form-fitting applicator to effortlessly contour to areas once considered difficult to treat.
SculpSure is another option we offer to contour your body and treat stubborn pockets of fat. This is the perfect treatment for people who struggle to get rid of stubborn body fat, even with diet and exercise. With this FDA-cleared body contouring system, fat cells are specifically targeted and damaged. Once
damaged, the fat cells are drained through your body’s lymphatic system in the months following the procedure.

Frequently asked questions about body contouring.
Our clients have common questions when considering body contouring, so let’s dive in so you’re as informed as possible!
“Which treatment is right for me?”
The main difference between the two options is that FlexSure is used for skin laxity, while SculpSure is used for volume reduction. FlexSure [AB1] can be used on any skin type, any time of year, with no BMI restrictions. It has multiple applicator sizes that allow for non-invasive and
customized treatments. Since it requires no downtime, you can return to your daily activities immediately. Alternatively, SculpSure treatments are ideal for people with trouble spots, particularly those that seem resistant to diet and exercise.
“How many sessions will I need?”
A series of treatments is always recommended, but every patient is different. The optimal number of treatments can vary; however, during your consultation, our specialist will be able to create a treatment plan just for you. Generally, you can expect to need three to six treatments for optimal results.
“Do the treatments hurt?”
During FlexSure treatments, you will experience a gentle, pain-free warming sensation around
the targeted areas. Many of our patients say it feels like a hot stone massage. Some of our clients note that SculpSure is a bit unpleasant, like muscle cramping.
These treatments are quick and have no downtime, which makes them a great lunchtime option! After the treatment, there is usually only a slight redness
of the treated area. This redness will generally disappear soon after. You’ll be able to return to your daily activities immediately following treatment.
“When will I see results?”
Results can be seen in as little as 3 treatments, but optimal results are seen after a series of 6 treatments.
"How much does body contouring cost?”
Treatments start at $99 for smaller areas and increase from there. For a full list of our service pricing, refer to our website.
