With the plethora of fat reduction procedures on the market, understanding the capabilities of this ever-expanding selection of treatments can be a bit challenging. CoolSculpting® was introduced as a non-invasive fat reduction procedure to U.S. markets in 2010. This technology uses the power of extreme temperatures (applied externally) to damage isolated collections of fat cells on areas of the body like the abdomen and hips, which the body disposes of through the lymphatic system over the 2-4 months following the treatment.
While this procedure is enticing due to the promise of no downtime or surgery, it is meant for specific types of patients just like Dr. LeRoy’s original Band Aid Liposuction technique. The ideal CoolSculpting patient has very small areas of excess fat on the hips, abdomen and/or flanks and is in good overall health. The other thing to realize about non-surgical fat reduction is that results are gradual. The body takes several months to filter the damaged cells out of the patient’s system for inch loss.
Band Aid Liposuction is also designed to address isolated areas of diet and exercise resistant fat; however, because the procedure removes the fat through suctioning cannulas, the results are typically more dramatic than those associated with non-surgical treatments. Band Aid Liposuction also offers patients treatment flexibility. Performed in-office with gentle numbing, Band Aid Liposuction can be used to remove excess fat from a variety of locations including the abdomen, hips, knees, under the chin, and arms. Both CoolScupting and Band Aid Liposuction are safe, effective procedures for appropriately qualified patients.
An important thing to remember when researching fat reduction treatments is to consult with a qualified provider. An experienced surgeon with an extensive results portfolio ,which you can review during your consultation, is best equipped to perform surgical fat reduction like Band Aid Liposuction or recommend the most appropriate alternative treatment options like tummy tuck or mommy makeover surgery. If you’re pursuing a non-surgical treatment, it’s best to consult a certified practitioner who also has an extensive before and after picture collections of their own work for you to review.

I had a facelift about ten years ago and would like to “refresh” my results without the downtime of another facelift. Is there another procedure that will revitalize the results from my surgery a few years ago?
This is a great question! While a facelift does turn back the hands of time, it does not stop the aging process. Even after the procedure, collagen production in the skin slows, and many years down the road a touch-up procedure may be necessary to maintain your results. However, a traditional facelift generally isn’t necessary in this situation. My “Band Aid” Facelift may be the perfect solution to solve your rejuvenation woes.
I created the Band Aid Facelift to help patients whose signs of aging don’t necessitate a full facelift, but it is also perfect for those looking to rejuvenate their previous plastic surgery results. The Band Aid Facelift uses smaller incisions and gentle numbing instead of general anesthesia. This means that the procedure can be performed in-office and has a much shorter recovery (typically only 3 to 5 days) than traditional facelift.
For older adults, the Band Aid Facelift carries fewer risks because of its less invasive nature. Many of my patients have been very pleased with the subtle and natural-looking results they’ve received from the procedure. The Band Aid Facelift isn’t for everyone, though. Individuals with more advanced signs of aging may benefit more from a traditional facelift.
Likewise, individuals who do not want to undergo another surgical procedure may find that Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing provides the right amount of rejuvenation. Like other Band Aid procedures, Laser Skin Resurfacing is performed in-office with gentle numbing. Using advanced DOT Laser Therapyâ„¢, Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing stimulates collagen production and helps eliminate fine lines and wrinkles, acne, and even sun spots. Whether as an initial treatment or as regular maintenance to your previous facelift results, Band Aid Laser Skin resurfacing helps renew skin for a younger-looking complexion.
I created the Band Aid Facelift to help solve patients’ mild to moderate aging concerns .From your question, it seems like you may be a great candidate for Band Aid plastic surgery or Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing. To determine your candidacy for either procedure, contact our office to schedule a consultation.
