Non-invasive Fat Reduction
We’ve all heard it – if you consume more calories than you burn off, you’re going to gain fat. But not all fat is created equal. You diet. You exercise. Perhaps you aren’t seeing the results you’d like. In some cases, this is simply the cost of getting older, of changing hormones, of changes in the way we collect fat. Non-invasive fat reduction may be the answer.
Fat deposits in men and women
Men and women accumulate fat more prevalently in some areas than others. Why?
Men tend to accumulate fat around the waistline. Women tend to accumulate fat on the hips and thighs. It’s no secret that women have higher body fat percentages than males – almost twice that of males. By our mid-twenties, a healthy woman may have twice the number of fat cells than a healthy male.
These differences aren’t just a matter of what you eat or lack of exercise. For some it’s a matter of genetics, while for others, fat accumulation may be caused by erratic or deficient hormone levels.
Hormones are primarily responsible for how fat accumulates around the hips and thighs in women and around the abdomen and torso in men. There is a physiological reason that cellulite tends to occur in women and not men.
The consequences of excess fat cross genders, however. Both men and women who distribute body fat around the abdomen (the “apple” shape) have a higher incidence of heart disease and diabetes.

Fat reduction treatment options
A balanced, healthy diet combined with adequate amounts of exercise is the best way to promote long-term healthy lifestyle. Cardiovascular and strength-training exercises not only reduce fat, but also boost metabolism and increase cardiovascular function. In short, exercise helps you become and stay healthier while controlling body weight. Exercise also improves mood and psychological wellness and increases self-esteem.
Unfortunately, most people simply cannot reach their target weight through diet and exercise alone. Some issues, such as cellulite, are not responsive to general weight loss activities such as diet and exercises.
While many men and women ultimately opt for liposuction or invasive bariatric surgery procedures, most are looking for non-invasive approaches. Non-invasive fat reduction procedures approaches such CoolSculpting and SculpSure are quite effective, require little to no downtime, and are virtually pain-free. Moreover, since these procedures are non-invasive, there are no sutures and no scars.
If dieting and exercise have failed to get rid of excess fat and cellulite or you simply need a little help getting achieving that sculpted, toned look, noninvasive treatment options are available.
