Turn Up the Heat This Winter with HeatWave Treatments for Body Sculpting

Feb 1, 2024 | Skin Tightening

If the colder winter months in Dallas have you longing for summer sun and swimwear, turn up the heat with HeatWave treatments for body sculpting at Mara’s Med Spa. Not only will you love this non-invasive solution for body sculpting, but beginning your treatments in the winter will ensure you have the confidence to flaunt your beautiful body when summer does come.

As we age, our skin loses elasticity and firmness, leading to fine lines and wrinkles, sagging and dimpling. Utilizing a combination of high-energy radial shockwaves and multi-polar radio frequency, HeatWave Skin Tightening offers a non-invasive solution to skin laxity and wrinkles. And when you combine HeatWave with CoolSculpting sessions, the results are even more jaw-dropping than CoolSculpting on its own.

Understanding the Science behind HeatWave Skin Tightening

Heatwave treatments for body sculpting at Mara’s promise to change all the adverse effects of aging on our skin. How? Through the power of high-energy radial shockwaves and multi-polar radio frequency.

But what exactly are these technologies, and how do they work together to rejuvenate and eliminate loose skin?

High-Energy Radial Shockwaves

The first modality in HeatWave treatments for body sculpting is high-energy radial shockwaves. Radial shockwaves are acoustic waves that carry high energy to tender or painful spots and fibrous or myoskeletal tissues. The initial medical application was in breaking down kidney stones without surgery.

However, researchers soon discovered that these high-energy acoustic waves could also stimulate collagen production, increase cellular metabolism, and improve blood circulation when applied to the skin.

HeatWave treatments for body sculpting utilize radial shockwaves to stimulate the skin’s natural repair mechanisms. When these high-energy acoustic waves are applied to the skin, they create micro-trauma in the tissue. This micro-trauma triggers the body’s healing response, increasing collagen production and improving skin elasticity.

Multi-Polar Radio Frequency

The second modality for Heatwave treatments for body sculpting uses Multi-Polar Radio Frequency (RF) technology. This form of energy has seen application in various medical applications for over a century. When applied to the skin, RF energy generates heat, causing the tissue to contract and stimulating the production of new collagen.

By heating the skin to a precise temperature, multi-polar RF can induce the skin’s cells to produce more collagen, resulting in tighter, firmer skin. Moreover, the heat generated by the RF energy can also help break down stubborn fat cells, making this technology a valuable tool for body contouring.

The Synergistic Effect of Radial Shockwaves and Multi-Polar RF

Combined, high-energy radial shockwaves and multi-polar RF create a powerful treatment for anyone looking for body sculpting and contouring in Dallas.

The radial shockwaves stimulate collagen production and kickstart the skin’s healing response. At the same time, the RF energy simultaneously heats the tissue, resulting in the contraction of the tissue and further collagen production. This one-two punch significantly improves skin tightness, contour, and texture.

How Does HeatWave Increase the Effectiveness of CoolSculpting Sessions?

Now that you understand the science behind HeatWave treatments for body sculpting, you may be wondering why Mara likes to follow up CoolSculpting Elite sessions with HeatWave therapy. The answer is all about the results.

Our expertise in body contouring and sculpting has proven that clients who combine these two treatments see faster results – at a rate of 4-6 weeks versus the 10-12 weeks of CoolSculpting alone.

Here is why: Acoustic waves push any fat cells not affected by the CoolSculpting procedure into a terminally injured phase. Then, the pulse waves send an additional shock to the cell, adding to the cold or heat injury. The cell cannot withstand this onslaught and eventually dies.

The Benefits of HeatWave Treatments for Body Sculpting

Mara’s HeatWave treatments for body sculpting offer many benefits, making it an attractive option for those looking to enhance their skin’s appearance and combat signs of aging.

Non-Surgical and Non-Invasive

One of the primary advantages of this innovative treatment is that it is non-surgical and non-invasive. This means no incisions, no anesthesia, and no lengthy recovery times. HeatWave is a convenient option for everyone with a hectic schedule since you can return to your normal routine immediately following treatment.

Noticeable Results

HeatWave treatments for body sculpting lead to noticeable results. Patients can expect improvements in skin tightness and contour, reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, and a more youthful appearance. The treatment can also help to reduce cellulite and improve the appearance of sagging skin.

Suitable for All Skin Types

The technology used in HeatWave Skin Tightening ensures that the treatment is safe and effective for all skin tones and types.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

Your appointment for HeatWave typically lasts between 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

At the beginning of the procedure, your experienced medical esthetician will apply a cooling gel to the treatment area to ensure comfort and enhance the effectiveness of the treatment. The HeatWave device then moves in a circular motion over the area. Radial shockwaves and RF energy transfer into the skin as the device moves. This process causes the skin to heat up, which may cause a warm sensation but is rarely painful.

Following the treatment, you may notice that your skin is slightly for a few hours. This is due to the heat and should subside within a few hours. There is no downtime after a HeatWave treatment for body sculpting, meaning you can immediately return to your normal activities.

How Many Treatments Are Needed for Full Results?

The number of HeatWave treatments you will need to achieve full results will depend on the condition of your skin and your desired outcomes.

However, most patients require between 6-8 treatments, spaced one week apart, to see optimal results. During your complimentary consultation at Mara’s Med Spa, we will discuss exactly how many treatments you will need to meet your needs and goals.

Who is a Candidate for HeatWave Treatments for Body Sculpting?

The better question here might be, ‘Who is NOT a candidate for HeatWave?’ Part of the appeal of this treatment is that it is suitable for everyone who wants to see improvement in fine lines and wrinkles, sagging skin or who is interested in achieving a more contoured look. HeatWave Skin Tightening is safe for all skin tones and types and can effectively treat the face, neck, and body.

That said, like any med spa treatment, your free consultation is the key to determining if HeatWave is the right body contouring option for you. Your consultation with Mara’s team will include a professional assessment of your skin’s condition and a discussion of your skincare goals. Only then can we determine whether HeatWave treatments for body sculpting are right for you – or if one of our other transformative body contouring treatments are better suited to your goals.
