Venus Freeze: Non-Surgical Body Sculpting

A newer cosmetic treatment is called Venus Freeze, and it’s one of the top options for non-surgical body sculpting. If you’d like to have toned, firm skin and need to get rid of cellulite, then this procedure should be considered. With Venus Freeze, you can stop dreaming about the body you’ve always wanted and get it.

How Venus Freeze Sculpts Your Body

This procedure is effective for smoothing away cellulite, and it can remove inches from problem areas. An additional benefit of undergoing this treatment is firmer skin. With the help of multipolar RF energy, the Venus Freeze system can penetrate deep into your skin and create energetic reactions within it.

When the multipolar RF is combined with pulsed magnetic fields, heat is dispersed into deep layers of your skin, and as a result, your skin will become toned and firm. Despite the name, Venus Freeze doesn’t freeze your skin, and the technology doesn’t cause any discomfort. Although heat is generated deep within your skin, it isn’t enough to require cooling cream, and when compared with other treatments, Venus Freeze is significantly faster.

What It Can Do for You

If you’re considering this procedure, you should know that it can eliminate unwanted fat from your body, which is measured in inches. The Venus Freeze system is especially good at recontouring the body, and it’s designed to target unwanted pouches and bulges.

This procedure will tighten and reshape your body and give you a firmer, leaner appearance. Unlike some alternative treatment options, this treatment uses three times the RF energy, and it requires significantly less time for treatment.

Are You a Candidate?

Before considering Venus Freeze, you should know if it’s a good fit for your cosmetic goals. Ideally, you should want a sculpted body, and the best candidates want to avoid traditional surgery. It’s important to know that Venus Freeze isn’t liposuction, and it focuses more on correcting problems with skin laxity and cellulite.

How the Treatment Targets Fat

This procedure is effective against fat because it harnesses the power of multipolar radiofrequency energy and pulsed magnetic fields. When applied correctly, this technology promotes the synthesis of elastin and collagen, which helps to facilitate FGF-2. As a result of the multipolar RF energy, you’ll end up with smoother, toned skin.

For non-surgical body contouring, you should consider treatments with Venus Freeze at Pearl MD Rejuvenation in Toronto. Contact our office today to schedule a consultation and get started!

Venus Freeze for Body Contouring

Venus Freeze

Despite the name, Venus Freeze™ doesn’t involve any freezing. If you’re looking for a way to sculpt your body and look better, this is one of the best non-surgical treatments available. Treatments with the Venus Freeze™ are viewed as alternatives to liposuction by using radiofrequency (RF) energy to melt away the stubborn fat within your body and noticeably reduce cellulite.

How Venus Freeze™ Contours Your Body

Most patients will need multiple treatments, and each individual treatment session can typically be completed in under an hour. Unlike liposuction, Venus Freeze™ is designed to minimize bruising and downtime because it uses multipolar RF energy to target your stubborn fat.

To maximize your results, this treatment also uses magnetic pulsed fields, which means you get the benefits of both technologies from each individual treatment session. The main advantages of this procedure are wrinkle reduction, tighter skin and fat reduction.

During the treatment, RF energy is used to create a thermal reaction within your skin, and the heat from the RF energy stimulates your body’s natural healing response. This regenerative response promotes the formation of new collagen and leaves your skin feeling firmer and tighter. The RF energy is also effective for stimulating increased elastin production, and as the collagen within your skin contracts from the heat, your skin will gain better elasticity and firmness.

What Makes Venus Freeze™ So Effective?

This procedure is very effective because it uses heat to contour your body. As the temperature of your skin is elevated, your body releases stress hormones, which pass through your bloodstream. After a complex biological process occurs, your fat cells release their contents, and you end up with a smoother, contoured body.

How Is Venus Freeze™ Different?

Treatments with Venus Freeze™ use multipolar RF energy tighten your skin and reduce fat. There are several other cosmetic treatments that use this type of energy, but they work differently than this procedure and don’t offer the same benefits.

During treatments with Venus Freeze™, RF energy is delivered efficiently and consistently, which results in higher temperatures within the treatment area. Since it is able to generate more targeted heat, it provides better results.

When compared with alternative treatments, this procedure also uses less energy to generate a higher temperature within the treatment area. Another advantage of the Venus Freeze is that it uses magnetic pulse technology, which significantly improves the recovery process.

What About the Results?

If you’re considering this treatment, you should know what to expect. After undergoing a series of Venus Freeze™ treatments, most patients enjoy tighter skin and smoothed wrinkles. The heat generated by the treatments can help restore a youthful appearance and reduce cellulite. When you’re finished, you can expect a contoured body, and you should notice great results after only a few treatment sessions. During your consultation, our specialist will let you know how many treatment sessions you can expect for best results.

Once you’re finished with the treatments, your skin should continue to improve for a few more months as collagen production reaches its peak. Venus Freeze™ is one of the best options for safe, effective body contouring. Pearl MD Rejuvenation serves Toronto with this innovative treatment among our many personalized services.

Healthy Ways To Get Your Pre-Pregnancy Bod Back

healthy pregnancy tips by Dr. Jennifer Pearlman
Your little bundle of joy arrived and surprisingly weighed in at a small fraction of your total pregnancy weight gain. The numbers aren’t adding up and you may – like many moms – begin to wonder if you will ever get your body back after baby.

Celebrity moms like Victoria Beckham and Angelina Jolie that have rapidly snapped back from pregnancy to their previous svelte shapes have led many new moms to set unrealistic expectations. Well, don’t despair! It is neither realistic nor healthy to transform yourself so quickly.

 Your post-baby body is still undergoing a lot of changes. Excessive weight loss worries and an overly restrictive diet can cause heath problems for both you and your baby, interfere with maternal-infant bonding and disrupt the supply of breast milk. So, forget the crash diet and consider instead these 10 doctor-and mom-approved tips to getting your body back after baby.

1. Don’t rush!
Savour the moment! Your little bundle of joy is changing by the minute – but you don’t have to. Don’t be too rushed in transforming back to your pre-pregnancy weight or shape. Just remember it took you nine long months to gain the weight – it can often take as long or longer to shed the pregnancy pounds. Stay the course with patience and determination.

2. Breast is best!
If breast feeding is an option, it is a great way to burn extra energy while bonding and feeding your newborn. Breast feeding consumes more energy than pregnancy and is a great way to help get your body back into shape. The daily caloric burn when exclusively breast feeding is 500 calories, while pregnancy burns 300 calories daily.

Breast milk not only provides infants with optimal nutrition it can help regulate mom’s metabolism and hormones, provides a kick start to baby’s immune system and has been shown to reduce the risk of ear infections, allergies and asthma. If breast feeding is not an option, you can get your partner involved with bottle feeding and take the opportunity to get in an extra work out or nap.

3. Make sleep a priority!
Sleeplessness is inevitable in the early post-pregnancy phase and can make it more difficult to lose the extra inches. Lack of sleep has been associated with poor eating habits and weight gain. Even if your nighttime sleep is disrupted, you can try to get some shuteye through out the day when your baby does. Make naps a priority. The stack of dirty dishes and pile of laundry can always wait until later.

4. Take a time out!
Time outs aren’t just for little ones. Parents may find they too need a break – even a brief reprieve from the stress of parenthood. Time outs can help us better cope with stress and keep cortisol levels controlled. Cortisol, the stress hormone, can block our best intentions around weight loss. Keeping stress at bay is good for baby and your body.

5. Get moving early on!
Invest in a good stroller with sturdy rubber wheels and equipped with a large carry basket. Pack a bag with water, diapers, and an on-the-go healthy snack like trail mix and get going! A long brisk walk outdoors with baby in tow is the best activity for you and your little one.

The moderate intensity is just right, the work required to push the stroller is a good transition back to weight training, and the sensory stimulation of the outdoors is good for both mom’s mental health and early brain development of the baby.

Vary your walking route and make it purposeful by walking to do your chores with trips to the grocery store or bank. Until your baby is ready for sleep training, usually around four to five months, stroller naps are considered by most experts to be an acceptable option.

6. Rebuild your core
The stretching of the abdominal wall to accommodate a growing baby will temporarily weaken your core. In about 15 per cent of women, the abdominal muscle sheath may split during pregnancy (called a diastasis) leaving a gap through which abdominal contents can bulge or herniate.

With a diastasis present, women must be extra vigilant when starting on an exercise program and are best off avoiding exercises that excessively strain the central core muscles. Oblique curls and planks are preferred and attention must be paid to the pelvic floor.

7. Restore your floor
Further destabilizing a mommy’s middle is the combined impact of pregnancy, labour and delivery on the tone of the inner core – the pelvic floor. Having a larger baby, prolonged labour and a vaginal delivery can all increase the likelihood of having laxity and weakness in the pelvic floor muscles and experiencing difficulty with bladder control. Incontinence can persist and significantly impact a new mom’s quality of life if left untreated.

But with proper diagnosis and treatment, it is possible to repair the pelvic floor. Kegel exercises are key to successful recovery. Kegels work best when co-ordinated contractions of the pelvic floor muscles are supported by activation of adjacent muscle groups like the abdominal, gluteal and leg muscles.

There are training devices and specialists that can help you further hone the perfect Kegel. Consider seeing your doctor or a women’s health expert to ensure you have properly diagnosed the problem and what type of pelvic floor rehab is right for you.

8. Eat purposefully
With a frequent feeding schedule and disrupted sleep profile, a three-meal-a day-diet plan may not work best. More frequent and smaller meals may better match your energy needs and hunger. If breast feeding, ensure that you are eating and drinking sufficiently with each feed.

Plan your diet to be rich in plant-derived phytonutrients and healthy sources of protein and fat and low in potentially harmful chemicals like pesticides, added flavouring and colouring chemicals in processed foods. The addition of supplements like vitamin D3 and calcium can help meet the higher needs of breast feeding women.

9. Join a mommy group or class!
New babies and their never ending needs can lead to social isolation. Make an effort to join a new mommy group or sign up for baby programs to meet other new moms. Stroller classes and other post-pregnancy fitness programs can keep you socially connected, fit and help foster baby’s development.

10. Take care of mommy, too!
Don’t skip out on your own health needs and self-care. Take time to visit your doctor to discuss any new problems like; persistent sadness, crying, hair loss, breast or nipple pain, excessive fatigue, bladder difficulties, acne or brown spots, and sexual health problems including pain with intercourse and low libido. These are just some of the many common health concerns that can emerge in a new mom and which can be properly investigated and treated by a doctor.

Getting your body back also means taking care of yourself. Take time to eat right and exercise. Take your time outs and cat nap. Listen to your favourite music and pamper yourself with a spa day.

There are many safe and effective treatments to help you on the journey including skin-tightening treatments offered by medical experts that can help tighten lax skin, contour the mommy tummy and shed the extra few pregnancy pounds. Skin tightening devices that combine radiofrequency with magnetic therapy can also minimize the appearance and symptoms of a diastasis.
