How it works: If you like hot over cold, SculpSure might be your best bet. This body contouring method stuns fat much in the way CoolSculpting does, but with heat. In order to zap fat, "window applicators" are strapped to trouble spots. A laser light reflects off the windows and down into the skin about an inch. "When they get heated up beyond the normal body temperature, it selectively damages the fat by shocking the cells, and a portion die over a few months," says Bass.
Who should try it: People with a small muffin top, and those looking to take off two to three inches. Clinical trials show an average 24 percent reduction in localized fat after a single treatment.*
Pros: The applicator has more geometric flexibility, making it suitable for a broad range of body types. It's completely painless and takes only one 25-minute session to treat problem areas-- making it the quickest body-sculpting treatment available.
Cons: While it's nowhere near scalding temperatures, this procedure does get hot, which can be uncomfortable for some patients. For a week after the Sculpsure procedure, patients must massage the area for five to ten minutes a day.
