  • What is UltraShape?

    UltraShape is a non-invasive fat treatment that uses focused ultrasound to break down the fat cells that cause cellulite dimpling. The ultrasound waves used in this treatment heat and target fat cells in the deeper layers of your skin, all without damaging epidermal cells on the surface of the skin.

    What can I expect during an UltraShape treatment?

    UltraShape does not require any anesthesia. The procedure is fairly simple: a physician rolls the UltraShape hand piece across the surface of your skin, and ultrasound waves produced by the device break down problematic fat cells. UltraShape treatment takes less than one hour to complete. Patients may experience some minor redness and swelling immediately following the UltraShape treatment which will soon fade.

    Where can I find UltraShape?

    UltraShape is not yet available in the US, but the treatment is widely used in Europe, Canada, and Asia to reshape and smooth fatty areas. More research and development are needed before this product receives approval for US use, but UltraShape may be a good effective option for many within several years.
