Body Contouring

How long does a body contouring treatment take?

Most body contouring sessions take between 30 minutes and two hours, depending on the technology used and the size of the area being treated. CoolSculpting® appointments are usually on the shorter side, while Thermage® and Potenza™ RF Microneedling may take longer because they’re more detailed, minimally invasive treatments. Your treatment specialist will walk you through the exact timing during your consultation so you know exactly what to expect.


How many body contouring sessions will I need?

It depends on your goals and the treatment. CoolSculpting® typically requires a series of sessions for the most noticeable fat reduction, while Thermage® often delivers tightening benefits from a single treatment. Potenza™ RF Microneedling is usually done as a series to improve texture and firmness over time.

Is there downtime after a body contouring treatment?

Most people can return to their day right away. CoolSculpting® has no downtime, while Thermage® and Potenza™ may cause mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity that usually fades within a few hours to a couple of days.

When will I start seeing results?

Results develop gradually. Fat reduction from CoolSculpting® typically appears within 1–3 months, skin tightening from Thermage® improves over several months as collagen rebuilds, and Potenza™ RF Microneedling results build over a series of treatments as texture and firmness improve.
