What Is Body Contouring?

Body contouring encompasses a range of surgical and non-surgical procedures designed to reshape and refine the body's silhouette by eliminating excess fat, tightening skin, and enhancing muscle definition. These treatments help individuals achieve a more sculpted and toned appearance, especially when stubborn fat deposits or loose skin persist despite diet and exercise efforts.

Our Body Contouring Treatments

Atone

Atone is a non-invasive muscle stimulation treatment that uses advanced technology to induce powerful muscle contractions that are not achievable through regular exercise. It strengthens and tones targeted muscle groups, enhancing muscle definition and contributing to a more sculpted physique.

Avéli

Avéli is a minimally invasive procedure specifically designed to reduce the appearance of cellulite. By targeting and releasing the fibrous septae bands beneath the skin that cause dimpling, Avéli smooths the skin's surface, resulting in a more even and youthful appearance.

What to Expect: The Body Contouring Process

1. Consultation

Your body contouring journey at NPSI starts with a comprehensive consultation. We will discuss your aesthetic goals, assess your areas of concern, and determine the most suitable treatments, such as Atone or Avéli. We’ll review your medical history and ensure you’re a good candidate for the procedures.

2. Treatment Options

Atone

  • Preparation: Atone requires no special preparation. Wear comfortable clothing to your appointment.

  • Procedure:

    • Application: The Atone device applicators are placed on the targeted muscle areas (e.g., abdomen, buttocks).
    • Muscle Stimulation: The device emits electromagnetic energy to induce intense muscle contractions.
    • Sensation: You’ll feel strong muscle contractions but generally no pain.
    • Duration: Each session lasts about 30 minutes.

  • Treatment Course: A typical regimen includes four sessions scheduled over two weeks.

Avéli

  • Preparation: You may be advised to avoid certain medications or supplements that can increase bruising.

  • Procedure:

    • Anesthesia: Local anesthesia will be administered to ensure comfort.
    • Device Insertion: A small incision is made, and the Avéli device is inserted under the skin.
    • Fibrous Band Release: The practitioner identifies and releases the fibrous septae causing cellulite.
    • Duration: The procedure typically takes about 60 to 90 minutes.

3. Aftercare and Recovery

Atone

  • Immediate Activities: You can return to normal activities right away.
  • Side Effects: Mild muscle soreness, similar to after a workout, may occur.

Avéli

  • Post-Procedure Care:

    • Compression Garments: You may need to wear compression garments to reduce swelling.

  • Maintenance: Results can be maintained with periodic sessions and regular exercise.

Avéli

  • Immediate Improvement: A smoother skin appearance is often seen shortly after treatment.
