UltraShape®

If you're looking to contour your body and eliminate stubborn fat without surgery, UltraShape can help you achieve a more sculpted appearance with minimal downtime.

Sculpt Your Body With Precision

At APDerm, our compassionate team of clinicians is dedicated to providing you with the highest quality of care. We utilize state-of-the-art technology like UltraShape, which uses focused ultrasound energy to selectively target and destroy fat cells. This non-invasive treatment helps contour your body and reduce unwanted fat, resulting in a smoother and more defined silhouette.

What Is UltraShape?

UltraShape is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that uses focused ultrasound waves to target and eliminate fat cells without harming surrounding tissues. This advanced technology breaks down fat cells, which are then naturally processed and eliminated by the body. Unlike other fat reduction treatments, UltraShape offers a comfortable experience with no downtime, allowing you to immediately return to your daily activities.

How It Works

UltraShape uses pulsed, focused ultrasound waves to selectively break down fat cells without harming surrounding tissues. The ultrasound energy, delivered in short bursts, precisely targets the subcutaneous fat layer. This creates rapid pressure changes within the fat cells, causing them to rupture in a process known as cavitation, which leads to their breakdown.

Once ruptured, the stored triglycerides are released into the surrounding tissue. Over the following weeks, the body’s natural metabolic processes process and eliminate these contents through the liver and lymphatic system. As the body removes the disrupted fat cells, the treated area gradually becomes slimmer and more contoured, with minimal downtime and discomfort.

What to Expect From an UltraShape Treatment

During an UltraShape session, a specialized handpiece delivers focused ultrasound energy to the treatment area. Depending on the size and number of areas being treated, the procedure typically takes about 60 minutes.

Most patients find UltraShape treatments comfortable, as the procedure is painless and requires no anesthesia. Patients often describe the sensation as a gentle warming or tingling feeling.

Following the treatment, there is no need for post-procedure care, and you can resume your normal activities right away. Results from UltraShape can be seen as early as two weeks after the first treatment, with optimal results typically visible after three sessions.

UltraShape Aftercare

UltraShape requires no special aftercare. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular exercise can help enhance and prolong the treatment's results. Since UltraShape is noninvasive, you can immediately return to your daily routine without any restrictions.

How Do I Know if UltraShape Is Right for Me?

UltraShape is ideal for individuals seeking to reduce localized fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. This treatment is suitable for the following:

Abdomen
Flanks (love handles)
Thighs

Candidates for UltraShape should be in good overall health and near their ideal body weight. During your consultation, our clinicians will evaluate your body contouring goals and determine if UltraShape is the best option for you.
