At our clinic, we specialise in tackling those hard-to-shift areas of stubborn fat with innovative, non-invasive treatments. Recently, we had the pleasure of assisting Autillias, who was concerned about her auxiliary puffs—the small but noticeable pockets of fat under her arms. Despite a good diet and regular exercise, Autillias found these areas particularly challenging to tone. She wanted to feel more confident wearing sleeveless tops and bikinis, especially during holiday seasons.
Understanding Auxiliary Puffs and Our Approach
Auxiliary puffs are stubborn fat deposits located under the arms. They can be especially resistant to diet and exercise, making people self-conscious about their appearance. Autillias opted for a combination of Aqualyx Fat Dissolving and HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) treatments to address this issue.
*Our Customized Treatment Plan*:
• *Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Session*: This treatment targets and dissolves stubborn fat cells. Although it can take up to 6 sessions for optimal results on larger body areas, Autillia started with one session due to the relatively small size of her auxiliary puffs.
• *HIFU Session*: Known for its body sculpting capabilities, HIFU uses ultrasound technology to heat and destroy fat cells while also tightening the skin. It’s ideal for various areas, including legs, arms, stomach, love handles, and double chin. Autillia has also had her first HIFU session to complement the results of the Aqualyx treatment.
The Treatment Experience
*Aqualyx Fat Dissolving*:
• *Procedure*: Autillias first Aqualyx session involved targeting the fat under her arms. While she experienced some sensitivity during the treatment, it was generally well-tolerated, with minimal pain afterwards.
• *Downtime and Results*: The recovery was quick, with only slight bruising. Within two weeks, Autillia noticed significant improvements—the fat had dissolved noticeably, and the area was much flatter.
*HIFU Treatment*:
• *Procedure*: The HIFU treatment was painless and quick. Using a specific cartridge designed for fat dissolving, the ultrasound waves penetrated the skin to heat and destroy fat cells, with no needles or downtime required.
• *Expected Outcomes*: Although she had just begun her HIFU sessions, she was already seeing positive changes. For larger areas, we typically recommend three to six HIFU sessions spaced four to six weeks apart for the best results.
Long-Term Benefits and Maintenance
Autillias initial results from both treatments were promising. While she started with one session of each treatment, her remarkable progress demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach in even small, stubborn fat areas.
*Ongoing Results*:
• *Non-Invasive*: Both treatments offer a non-invasive alternative to traditional fat reduction methods. The absence of needles and minimal downtime make them highly convenient.
• *Progressive Improvement*: HIFU treatments continue to work over time, improving the treated area as new collagen and elastin are produced, resulting in tighter, firmer skin.
*Future Maintenance*:
• *Follow-Up Sessions*: Depending on her ongoing results, Ortelia might consider additional sessions to maintain and enhance her progress.
• *Comprehensive Care*: Combining these treatments with a balanced diet, regular exercise, and possibly other skin-tightening procedures ensures sustained results.
