NON-INVASIVE BODY & CELLULITE TREATMENT
Non-Invasive Body Contouring
What is the best route to take in terms of non-invasive body contouring? It’s important to first know that whatever modality you choose, non-invasive body contouring is not Liposuction or a substitute for exercise and a healthy diet.
The goal for these devices is to aid in the removal of stubborn areas of fat. With that said, it’s important to discuss with your provider your expectations and what each device can offer you. Below is a comparison between two services we offer at Radiance MediSpa, Cool Sculpting and Body FX:
