How a Dermatology Clinic Says Goodbye to Love Handles

I want to keep my distance from love handles

Today, we came to talk about love handles

Forena Clinic has arrived.

Let’s get right into it!

Before you know it, love handles have become like an old friend.

Since you’ve been together for so long,

it’s not easy to say goodbye.

But the time has come for a cold, hard breakup.

Love handles?

This refers to an excessive accumulation of subcutaneous fat on both sides of the waist, that is, the flanks.

It usually describes the area that sticks out slightly when wearing pants

or where the waistline does not look smooth.

Unfortunately,

even with exercise or dietary control,

this is one of the areas where fat does not easily come off.

Why don’t love handles go away?

The reason love handles are hard to lose is that

subcutaneous fat is thick and firm, so circulation is slow and breakdown efficiency is low.

In the case of women,

estrogen tends to store fat in the lower abdomen or flanks.

If you sit for long periods or keep a hunched posture,

fat can build up more easily.

Unfortunately, it is difficult to target and reduce only flank subcutaneous fat

with abdominal exercises alone.

If lymphatic circulation is poor, fat breakdown progresses slowly.

Effective ways to say goodbye to love handles

Fat-dissolving injections _ Ssoy Injection, PPC Injection

Promote the breakdown and elimination of fat cells.

They are non-surgical, recovery is fast, and localized treatment is easy.

Radiofrequency lifting _ Thermage FLX, INNOfill

Radiofrequency heat stimulates the fat and dermal layers >

You can see effects at the same time: collagen regeneration, tightening, improved elasticity, and fat reduction.

HIFU lifting _ Ulthera, Shurink

Ultrasound energy reaches the subcutaneous fat layer and induces coagulation and contraction,

allowing you to achieve fat-layer contraction and lifting effects with less pain.

Cryolipolysis _ CoolSculpting, Zeltiq

By cooling fat cells and inducing natural cell death [apoptosis],

the number of fat cells decreases permanently. There is little swelling after the procedure.

Body HPL | Carboxy Therapy​

HPL _ dissolves the contents of fat cells

Carboxy _ improves circulation through CO2 injection

It combines fat breakdown and improved lymphatic circulation.

Laser lipolysis _ SculpSure, AcuFit

A laser of a specific wavelength heats the subcutaneous fat layer.

It causes less pain and helps reduce fat cell size while maintaining elasticity.
