Body Contouring

What is body contouring?

Body contouring utilizes different types of technology to reduce the appearance of superficial fat and cellulite underneath your skin to give you a smoother, slimmer shape. Dr. Averilla uses Reaction™ by Viora that incorporates CORE™ technology with multi-radiofrequency (RF) channels to develop a customized approach to help you.

Body contouring can be used on the following areas:

• Buttocks
• Hips (love handles)
• Thighs (saddlebags)
• Back
• Bra line
• Arms

Depending on your concerns, Dr. Averilla customizes your treatment to address superficial fat, cellulite, or both in order to give you the shape you want. Body contouring is a complement to a healthy lifestyle – including proper diet and exercise – so you can get results you love.

How does Viora work?

The Viora CORE technology produces three different types of RF waves that gently warm the skin and target specific layers of fat underneath. All three RF wave channels can be used individually or applied together to create customized treatments.

The warming sensation from the RF waves also heats subcutaneous fat to its melting point. Your body then metabolizes the melted fat and eliminates it from your body over the following few weeks.

Viora is a non-invasive option with minimal downtime and results comparable to invasive procedures like liposuction.

What happens during a body contouring session?

During your body contouring session, Dr. Averilla places the RF treatment head against the treatment area. Once it is turned on, you’ll feel a comfortable warming sensation. Dr. Averilla will cycle through the four RF wave frequencies and combine them as needed to reach the appropriate layers of subcutaneous fat.

The procedure can take 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the treatment area. Once your session is complete, you can return to your normal activities without any necessary downtime.

What can I expect after body contouring?

Once your body begins to metabolize your subcutaneous body fat – which can take a few weeks – you will start to see results and may notice your clothes fitting better. Dr. Averilla may recommend a series of treatments spread out over four to six weeks in order to get the best results.
