The Complete Body Shaping Therapy Program

 

Traditionally, body shaping has been perfomed by liposuction, also known as liposculpture, tumescent liposucution, ultrasound assisted liposuction, vibratory assisted liposuction. All of these procedures can be performed safely to remove disproportionate fat from the subcutaneous regions of the body such as the abdomen, hips, waist, flanks, arms, buttocks, chest, and knees. Liposuction is performed under a variety of anesthesia levels ranging from local anesthesia using the Tumescent Technique to combinations using Intravenous sedation to complete anesthesia, known as General Anesthesia.

Now a Non-Invasive technique of Body Shaping is evolving with more advanced technologies using ultrasound, laser energy, radiofrequency energy, and mechanical massage. A number of new devices such as VELASMOOTH, BODY by THERMAGE, ACCENT Radiofrequency, ULTRASHAPE, TRIACTIVE, ENDERMOLOGIE, ALUMA, and others are being studied and refined. At Premier Plastic Surgery, Dr. Newman and his team of doctors, nurses and aestheticians are putting these technologies to work to improve cellulite, body shape, skin firming both for patients undergoing liposuction as well as patients who want a completely non surgical treatment.

Currently, Dr Newman And His Team are focusing on the proven technology of volumetric tissue tightening developed at THERMAGE and combining this with laser energy and other modalities to enhance results. If you feel your body is in need of some RE-SHAPING with or without liposculpture, you may want to schedule a personal consultation to see what your options are. Dr. Newman also works with the top personal trainers in the San Francisco Bay Area and combine their professional services to help patients achieve their goals.

RE-DEFINE YOUR SHAPE
A New Body Shaping Therapy

 
Advanced Technolgy
A new radiofrequency system is being brought to the San Francisco Bay Area by Dr. Newman to tighten skin, reduce cellulite and smooth skin on the waist, legs, buttocks and arms. Up to 2 inches can be reduced off of ones’ waist area with the complete Body Shaping Therapy program.

A Non-Invasive
Therapy
This treatment can create a dramatic change without the need for liposuction. A unique heating current is passed up to one inch below the surface of the skin without anesthesia to promote local circulation, fibrous tissue breakdown, and the breakdown of fat cells. A series of five treatments are performed at monthly intervals with no downtime and minimal discomfort. Our staff can answer your questions regarding this new treatment. For a limited time we are offering a $250 price reduction in the Body Shaping Therapy package for those patients who allow their new shapes to be shown off in some of our educational materials.

Q.  What It's For?

A.  Wouldn't you like to turn back the clock and regain the fresh, youthful skin of a carefree teenager? Sure, we all would. But until science develops a real-life fountain of youth or time-travel technology, Accent Your Body offers the next best thing.
 

 

 

Q.  How does it work?

A.  Dual-layer RF Thermotherapy stimulates the production of new collagen and improves skin surface texture. Treatments with the Accent system are quick and do not require anesthesia or a prolonged recovery time. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately. Best of all, Dual-layer RF Thermotherapy provides steady improvement with excellent, long-term skin tightening results.
 

 

 

Q.  On what parts of the body can Accent be used? 

A.  Dual-layer RF Thermotherapy Accent Your Body treatments can be performed to treat loose, wrinkled skin anywhere on the body. The procedure is frequently used to treat the thin, loose and crepe-like skin often found on the aging face, neck and under the upper arms. It is also excellent for firming skin on the post-surgical or postnatal abdomen, chest, thighs or breasts.
 

 

 

Q.  What is an Accent Your Body treatment like?

A.  During the procedure, your doctor will use the Accent system to precisely heat the tissue just within your skin's inner layer (dermis). Depending on the size of the treated area, a treatment may take up to 45 minutes.

Following each treatment, you can immediately resume all routine activities. You may notice a slight redness, which should disappear in less than 24 hours. Generally, no more than three to five treatments at two weeks intervals will be required.
 

 

  

Q.  Is Accent Your Body safe?

A.  Absolutely. Incorporating advanced safety precautions, Accent directs proven RF energy to precisely the areas of your skin that you wish to improve. Thousands of patients have been treated safely and successfully worldwide using the Accent system.
 

 

  

Q.  When should I see results?
A.  Dual-layer RF Thermotherapy causes the deep structures of your skin to tighten right away; results are immediately visible. With time, new collagen develops, further tightening your skin and yielding even more beautiful, natural looking and firmer skin. While just one or two treatments can produce good results, your doctor may recommend follow-up procedures to best maintain and improve your body's youthful appearance.
 

 

  

Q.  Does it hurt?

A.  While pain tolerance is subjective, most people tolerate Dual-layer RF Thermotherapy well, and have little or no discomfort. Patients often describe the sensation as a "warm massage." The risk of significant side effects is extremely low.
 

 

  

Q.  How does RF work?

A.  During treatment, your doctor will precisely heat an area of the inner layer of your skin (dermis) using radio frequency technology. As the dermis is heated, a natural reaction occurs that promotes the creation of new collagen. The result: a return to the smooth, shapely and elastic skin of your youth.
 

 

  

Q.  How specifically does the Accent Your Body system work?

A.  Accent Your Body is a new alternative in skin treatment based upon Dual-layer RF (radio frequency) Thermotherapy. The Accent system is the only system on the market using two individual types of radio frequency technology: Unipolar and Bipolar. This unique dual radio frequency technology provides controlled volumetric tissue heating to two distinct depths of tissue.

Basically, the Bipolar module focuses on the surface layer of the skin, while the Unipolar module penetrates further for deep dermal thermotherapy. The Bipolar treatment is well suited for areas where the skin is thinner and more delicate, such as the face, helping to smooth fine lines and wrinkles. The Unipolar treatment generates alternating electromagnetic fields that cause friction and heating in the deeper tissues, which leads to improvements in overall shaping and firmness. Taken together, these dual-layer treatments can create dramatic change without the need for invasive surgery.
