Combining UltraShape with other treatments

UltraShape treatments remove stubborn pockets of fat. Additional problems that occur in these areas are loose or crepey skin, stretch marks, spider veins, brown spots, and rough skin.

If the abdominal or thigh skin is loose or crepey, Thermage can be done to tighten the skin. Thermage is a radio frequency device that delivers heat into the skin to tighten collagen and lift the skin.

If stretch marks are present on the abdomen, hips, or thighs, Fraxel laser treatments help fade the stretch marks. Fraxel laser produces microscopic sites of thermal impact that stimulate the production of new collagen in the dermis and smooth skin.

If spider veins are present on the abdomen, intense pulsed light can be used to fade the veins. The red colour of the blood absorbs the light energy and the heat closes the veins.

Sclerotherapy or laser treatments can fade spider veins on the thighs. With sclerotherapy, a hypertonic solution is injected into the veins to seal them. The laser energy is absorbed by the red veins and closes the veins.

Brown sun spots or age spots on the thighs can be treated by intense pulsed light or Fraxel treatments. The brown pigment absorbs the energy, darkens and flakes off in a few days.

Dry, rough skin can be treated by our sea salt scrubs or exfoliating body wraps.
