How it works: This body contouring method turns the heat up a notch compared to SculpSure. Rather than employ lasers, Liposonix uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) -- or sound waves -- to melt fat. "It gets quite a bit hotter than SculpSure, so that's why a majority of patients find this method to be much more painful. But it kills fat cells immediately," says Bass.
Who should try it: People looking to lose two to three inches, want results more quickly and aren't afraid of some discomfort.
Pros: It kills fat cells immediately and the procedure only takes an hour (I say "only" with caution). This method requires just one treatment, as it can tend to several areas (ex. stomach and love handles) at once, and there is zero down time.
Cons: It's ten degrees hotter than SculpSure and can be uncomfortable, or even painful for some patients.
