With the destruction of fat cells, some weight loss will take place during body sculpting procedures, however, these treatments are not intended to be a primary weight loss treatment. These procedures can help patients to lose those last few pounds but will take several weeks for the body to process the destroyed fat cells as waste and are not able to effectively destroy a significant amount of excess fat. Body contouring procedures are recommended for use either after a significant amount of weight has been lost and the weight has stabilized to a maintainable place where the patient is unlikely to gain the weight back, or for those who have developed fat deposits that no amount of exercise or dieting can seem to eradicate. Body contouring treatments are only able to destroy a certain percentage of the fat cells in the area that is being treated, which is why multiple sessions are typically required, eventually helping patients to shed a few more pounds that were being carried in that excess fat and skin. However, these treatments are used on target areas and should not be used all over the body, making them ineffective for significant weight loss treatments.
