Body Contouring

Body contouring is a full body aesthetic overhaul that combines multiple different treatments to achieve your goals. No matter what you want we can help. If you have loose or wrinkled skin and want it tightened, we have treatment options for you. Stubborn fat can be melted away with laser lipo.

These treatments can be combined to help you get your summer body, or just be happier with who you see in the mirror. For body contouring we will create a schedule and determine what treatments will work best for you during our consultation.

The best part about body contouring is that all of our treatments are nonsurgical and noninvasive, meaning you can avoid the risks associated with treatments that are. Risks such as internal damage, infection, and scarring are nonfactors in our treatments because we never cut the skin. It also means that there is no downtime. You can leave our medspa after your treatment and return to your daily routine because your body does not need to recover.

Cellulite Reduction

Cellulite is the skin bumps or “cottage cheese” like texture on the skin. It often appears on larger areas of skin such as the thighs or abdomen. It is caused by the skin loosening and the fat layer beneath rising up.

Cellulite affects a lot of people, especially women, and is entirely harmless. However, many people do not like the way that cellulite looks on their body, so as a result many people want it gone. Fortunately, LightRx provides cellulite reduction.

Cellulite reduction is fairly straightforward. We want to tighten the skin where the cellulite is. The goal is to get the body to fix itself. The best way to do that is to heat it up. Using electromagnetic waves and radio frequencies we heat the skin up just enough to start the body’s natural healing process, but not damage it.

This healing process creates new skin fibers called collagen. These fibers are responsible for tightening the skin. Once the skin fibers are grown, they begin working to tighten the skin. The newly tightened skin reduces the appearance of cellulite.

Skin Tightening

Skin tightening works similarly to cellulite reduction. Our goal is to heat the skin to a temperature that will not damage the skin, but also high enough that it will start the body’s natural healing process. The process will create new collagen and then that collagen will tighten the skin. That said there are two key differences between our skin tightening treatment and our cellulite reduction treatment.

The first major difference is the technology we use for the skin tightening treatment. While we still use radio frequencies and electromagnetic waves, we also use low level lasers for our skin tightening. This allows for a more precise application. The precision is needed for sensitive areas such as the face. The second difference is the type of skin we treat. With skin tightening treatments we can target both loose and wrinkled skin.

Laser Lipo

Laser lipo in Chicago Watertower is the best way to deal with stubborn body fat. If you have tried fat reduction by more traditional methods such as diet and exercise and have not found the results you wanted, then laser lipo is right for you. It is safe, and effective.

Laser lipo works by beaming low level lasers beneath the skin targeting fat cells. These lasers heat the cells, melting them. Once melted the cells are destroyed, releasing the fat as glycerides and free fatty acids. These are sent to the muscles where they will be burnt off during exercise.

Typically, the body uses fat to create energy during exercise already. However, it takes the fat from random parts of the body. Laser lipo supplies that energy already so the fat is lost from the target area.

Laser lipo is also much safer than traditional liposuction. Since traditional liposuction is a surgical treatment there are the typical risks of surgery. These include scarring, internal damage, and infection. Laser lipo does not even have downtime.

Laser Hair Removal

If you are looking for a more permanent solution to hair removal than waxing, shaving, or hair removal creams then look no further than laser hair removal in Chicago Watertower. Laser hair removal is a simple and easy process and works anywhere there is unwanted hair. The lasers are aimed at the skin follicles and heat the skin enough to destroy them.

The lasers are accurate enough to not damage the skin itself, just the follicles. The follicles are what grow the hair so destroying them not only eliminates the hair, but also the hair’s ability to grow back.
