BODY CONTOURING

Do you have stubborn areas of fat or cellulite that won’t respond to diet and exercise? The Georgia Dermatology Center is pleased to offer two treatments to re-contour your body. Cool Lipo Laser Assisted Liposuction is an outpatient procedure that permanently removes fat and tightens skin on the neck, abdomen, and legs using local anesthesia. VelaShape is a non-surgical treatment that smoothes away cellulite using a unique combination of infrared and radio frequency energies.

Velashape™

Now you can reduce cellulite, tighten skin, and improve your own body’s contour without injections or anesthesia.

The new and improved VelaShape procedure uses infrared light, radiofrequency energy, and massage to melt away cellulite and extra inches in the midsection, buttocks, arms, and legs. As a result, metabolism of stored energy and lymphatic drainage are reactivated, reducing the amount of stored fat.

Velashape works great as a stand alone treatment, or to enhance the results of liposuction. A series of 5 treatments is recommended for best results.

Studies show that VelaShape treatment reduces an average of over 2 centimeters in thigh circumference and sixty percent improvement in skin texture, laxity, and tone after five treatments. Most patients experienced no pain or discomfort during or after the procedure.

Cool Laser Liposuction

Georgia Dermatology offers a customized treatment that combines traditional tumescent liposuction with CoolLipo™, a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that liquefies excess fat for easy removal. CoolLipo’s unique technology even goes beyond standard liposuction to reform collagen and tighten skin from the inside out.

During the procedure, an anesthetic solution is injected into the treatment area, causing the tissue to swell and become firm. This firming process allows for more control and better contouring. Next, a small tube containing a laser fiber is inserted into the fatty area. As the laser energy makes contact under the skin, it breaks apart and liquefies the fat. The excess fat is then easily removed by a vacuum. After the procedure, a compression bandage is worn to help the skin contract and heal.

Cool Laser Liposuction is ideal for small fatty areas, especially for the facial, neck, and chin area. Results should be seen within a week after treatment, and skin will continue to improve for 2-6 months post procedure.
