Weight loss requires eating less and exercising more, and body sculpting requires a specific weight-training routine combined with targeted cardiovascular activities. It’s difficult to contour your body and lose weight simultaneously at home, but we’ve made it possible at Thrive Med Spa & Wellness in Honolulu, HI. We offer treatment plans that combine medical weight loss with body contouring to help our patients reach their goal weight and their ideal body composition.
What Is Medical Weight Loss With Body Contouring?
We offer medical weight loss with body contouring, a program that combines effective weight loss methods with the popular truSculpt® iD so that patients can lose weight and achieve improved body contours without undergoing surgery or any invasive treatment methods.
When we combine our medical approach to weight loss with body contouring, there’s a synergism between the two, and the results defy the norm. Instead of the typical one plus one equals two type results, we combine these treatments for results that are more like one plus one equals three.
What Are the Treatment Benefits?
Losing weight can make your clothes fit better, make you look better, and help you feel more confident in your appearance. However, there are also positive health implications tied to weight loss, like significantly reducing your risk of obesity-related diseases and improving your overall health. Other treatment benefits of our unique approach to weight management include the following:
- truSculpt® iD can tighten your skin, contour your body, and destroy stubborn fat cells
- We take a multifaceted approach to body sculpting and weight loss
- Treatments are medically monitored, safe, and nonsurgical
- Different medications will accelerate weight loss so you can reach your goals quickly and safely
- We customize each treatment plan for each patient’s unique needs
How Does It Work?
Our medical weight loss program with body contouring encourages rapid weight loss and improves body composition for optimal post-treatment results. Our weight loss methods force the body into a state of fat loss so that when patients undergo truSculpt® iD treatments, more fat cells die during treatments.
The weight loss medications, changes in diet, increased exercise, and adequate hydration all work together to accelerate results so patients can achieve their goal weight as quickly as possible. The medications also increase energy levels while curbing the appetite, which is key for weight loss but not easy without the assistance of the right medication.
Contouring Your Body as You Lose Weight
We can also use truSculpt® iD to do what traditional dieting cannot: spot-treat fat. Anyone who has tried to lose weight and target excess fat through traditional methods like diet and exercise knows that doing more crunches doesn’t help you lose abdominal fat. However, with truSculpt® iD, we can target excess fat in specific body areas to spot-treat that fat and help patients achieve their goals in a way that diet and exercise alone could not.
This body contouring device not only targets stubborn fat but it can also tighten the skin. As the device delivers heat energy beyond the skin’s surface, it causes a contraction of existing collagen so that patients have less loose skin in that area than they would had they not undergone this treatment. Tighter skin is key to a contoured and defined body and is one of the many additional benefits of truSculpt® iD.
Medical Weight Loss
Our medical weight loss program helps patients reach their goal weight using different methods and supplements. We offer weight loss medications that can safely accelerate results by increasing metabolism, boosting energy levels, changing how the body processes foods, and regulating hunger hormones to promote satiety and curb cravings.
Our weight loss medications can help patients lose weight without feeling like they’re starving. We choose specific medications based on each patient’s medical history and preferences. These medications are medically monitored, so you can rest assured that they will help you lose weight quickly and safely. Our medication options include the following:
- Phentermine
- Semaglutide (Generic Ozempic and Wegovy®)
- Topiramate
- Bupropion
- Metformin
A Program Tailored to Your Goals
Our weight loss program also includes monthly follow-up appointments with our medical provider and access to a weight loss app. This app is helpful because it can help you track your progress, guide you through your weight loss curriculum, and ensure that you keep track of calories, macros, water intake, and weight.
truSculpt® iD
truSculpt® iD is an energy-based body contouring device that uses monopolar radiofrequency energy to target stubborn fat and tighten the skin. The device is nonsurgical, noninvasive, and treatments are pain-free. truSculpt® iD is equipped with treatment pads that we’ll place on the treatment area, and then activate the device to deliver comfortable radiofrequency heat energy to tighten the skin and destroy stubborn fat cells.
You’ll see an improvement in the appearance of your skin post-treatment due to the instant contraction of existing collagen, but the best results will be visible within the weeks following your initial treatment as the body increases natural collagen production and eliminates the fat cells from your treatment area. We can use this device to target stubborn fat and tighten the skin on the abdomen and flanks.
