Stubborn fat, while not technically a medical term, is exactly as its name implies – fat that’s difficult to lose. Stubborn fat tends to be that last bit of fat that seems impossible to shed – be it around your belly (muffin top), armpits or arms.
Note: Stubborn fat should not be confused with excess fat from being overweight or obese. The latter will firstly require a dedicated diet and exercise plan, and body contouring treatments in Singapore will be useful at a later stage should the patient wish to achieve enhanced results.
Fotona TightSculpt
Fotona TightSculpt uses a dual-wavelength, non-invasive laser to heat adipose tissue, stimulating collagen production and reducing fat. It is effective non-surgical fat removal for body sculpting, cellulite reduction, and skin tightening.
Liposonix
Liposonix employs high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to target and destroy fat cells beneath the skin’s surface. They are commonly used for reducing fat in the abdomen and flanks.
Vanquish ME
Vanquish ME uses radiofrequency energy to heat and destroy fat cells without direct contact with the skin. It is ideal for larger body areas like the abdomen and thighs.
ReBorn
ReBorn Body Contouring is a non-invasive fat reduction and body contouring treatment. It emits specific wavelengths of LED light that penetrate the skin and heat up fat cells. This heat causes the fat cells to break down, which are then naturally metabolised by the body.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat deposits through suction, typically performed through small incisions. It is effective for larger volumes of fat and can be applied to various body areas, including the abdomen, thighs, and arms.
Fat Transfer
Fat transfer involves harvesting fat from one body area through liposuction and transferring it to another site for augmentation. This invasive procedure is commonly used for enhancing body contours.
Removing stubborn body fat through non-surgical methods can be empowering, but understanding the financial investment is crucial.
In Singapore, the cost of non-surgical fat removal can vary based on the procedure chosen, the target area, and the experience of your practitioner. At SL Aesthetic Clinic, our price starts at $208 per session.
