What sets our body contouring program apart at Diversions Med Spa is our comprehensive assessment and technology-matching approach. During your consultation, we evaluate not just where you want to reduce fat, but also the quality of your overlying skin, the depth and distribution of the fat deposit, and how the treated area relates to your overall body proportions.
The Benefits
- Permanently eliminate stubborn fat deposits — Treated fat cells are destroyed and naturally eliminated by your body, providing permanent reduction in the targeted area as long as you maintain a stable weight
- Tighten and tone loose skin — Several of our body contouring technologies include radiofrequency or thermal components that stimulate collagen production, improving skin firmness in addition to reducing fat
- No surgery, no downtime — Return to work and normal activities immediately after treatment with no incisions, no anesthesia, and no recovery period
- Natural-looking, proportional results — Gradual fat elimination over 8–12 weeks means your body contour refines naturally, without the sudden changes that can look artificial or draw unwanted attention
- Treat multiple problem areas — Address the abdomen, flanks, thighs, upper arms, back, beneath the chin, and other common trouble spots with customized protocols for each zone
The Process
Body Assessment
Your journey begins with a comprehensive body assessment where we evaluate your areas of concern, measure and document the treatment zones, and assess both the fat deposits and the overlying skin quality. We discuss your lifestyle, fitness routine, and aesthetic goals to understand what results will make the most meaningful difference for you.
Treatment Planning
Treatment areas are precisely marked and measured to establish objective baselines for tracking your transformation. We create a customized protocol specifying the technology, applicator sizes, energy levels, and treatment zones for each session.
The Treatment Session
The selected technology is applied to precisely target your problem areas. CoolSculpting treatments involve placing applicators that draw in tissue and deliver controlled cooling for 35–60 minutes per area—most patients read, work on their laptop, or relax during the session.
Results & Transformation
Results develop gradually over 8–12 weeks as your body naturally processes and eliminates the treated fat cells through its lymphatic system. We schedule follow-up appointments to take measurements and comparison photographs, documenting your improvement objectively.
FAQ
What areas can body contouring treat?
Non-surgical body contouring can target many of the most common problem areas including the abdomen, flanks (love handles), thighs, upper arms, back, and chin. At Diversions Med Spa in Albuquerque, we evaluate your specific concerns during a consultation and recommend a treatment plan tailored to the areas where you want to see improvement.
How is non-surgical body contouring different from liposuction?
Non-surgical body contouring uses advanced technology such as radiofrequency, ultrasound, or cryolipolysis to reduce fat cells without incisions, anesthesia, or significant downtime. Unlike liposuction, which is a surgical procedure requiring recovery time, non-surgical treatments allow you to return to your daily activities almost immediately.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions depends on the treatment area, the technology used, and your personal body composition goals. Many clients achieve noticeable improvement in two to four sessions, though some areas may benefit from additional treatments.
When will I see results?
Most clients begin to notice visible changes within two to four weeks after their first treatment, with optimal results appearing after six to twelve weeks as the body continues to process and eliminate the targeted fat cells. Results are progressive, meaning you will see continued improvement over time.
Is body contouring painful?
Most non-surgical body contouring treatments are well tolerated and involve minimal discomfort. You may feel sensations of warming, cooling, or mild pressure during the procedure depending on the technology used.
How long do results last?
Once fat cells are destroyed through body contouring, they do not regenerate. However, maintaining your results requires a healthy lifestyle including balanced nutrition and regular physical activity.
