To begin the laser body sculpting in Virginia Beach, VA, we will need patients to fill out a “New Patient Information Form.” This form covers their medical history, current condition, allergies, insurance and any other pertinent information we need to know about. By gathering this information, we will be able to customize the treatment and ensure the patient is a candidate for this procedure.

We will then go over the possibilities with this procedure and determine how it can change the patient’s body to their desire. It is important to note that this procedure is not a substitute for losing a large amount of weight. The idea behind laser body sculpting is to:

• Help remove excess fat without an incision
• Target the fat cells under the skin through a medical laser
• Help patients achieve the desired shape in certain areas of the body
• Provide patients with a less invasive and faster procedure than traditional liposuction
• Helps tighten skin

During the procedure, we will have the patient lie down in a medical chair or on a table. We will then apply a cooling gel to the skin before moving a device, known as an applicator, over the skin of a specific area. The larger the area we are treating, the longer the procedure can take.

This device will target the fat cells under the skin without causing damage to the skin. While there is a small chance of burns on the surface, we can take the necessary precaution to avoid that possibility.
