Body image has a powerful impact on self-esteem and confidence levels. Unhappiness with the appearance of a specific area of your body can be detrimental to your emotional well-being. Although adopting a healthy lifestyle can help to enhance the appearance of the body, it’s often not enough.
Certain cosmetic problems such as stubborn fat deposits, sagging skin, and cellulite, often do not respond very well to traditional diet and exercise programs. These problems often require intense, targeted solutions, such as those offered at Midwest Anti-Aging and Med Spa.
In the past, surgical treatments were often the solution to shaping the body. However, thanks to advances in technology, patients can now address and resolve many aesthetic issues with non-surgical body treatments that are cost-effective and that work!

HI-EMT (High Energy Focused Electromagnetic Wave) technology is finally available to the lay person after being used for years by celebrities. It is a non-invasive treatment that can help strengthen and increase the volume of muscle mass, reduce fat, and thus, “sculpt” the body. The medical research shows that after one course of treatment, it can effectively increase muscle mass by 16% and reduce fat by 19%, at the same time. A 30 minute session is the equivalent of 5.5 hours of exercise!
Men and women who are at or close to their ideal weight are the best candidates. They are health conscious and exercise regularly. They are looking for that extra definition that the exercise is not giving them. There is no age limitation. Patients who have had prior surgeries such as a C section, abdominoplasty or liposuction, will have scar tissue that may make the contractions more uncomfortable than usual. These candidates can be treated as long as they are fully healed and have complete feeling in the treatment area.
The following conditions exclude a candidate from Body Sculpt:
Although the treatment may be performed on patients with higher BMI’s and muscles may still be strengthened, fat will cover the muscle definition.
Have you tried dieting and exercising to lose weight, but still find yourself with localized bulges of fat that just won’t go away? Then it may be time to consider liposuction.
The concept of Liposuction is fairly simple. It is a surgical procedure that improves the body’s contour by removing excess fat from unwanted areas of the body. With new techniques and new technologies, the board certified doctors at Midwest Anti-Aging and Med Spa can precisely shape the body while removing excess fat from those hard to get rid-off areas.
The liposuction procedure is usually an outpatient procedure performed under local anesthesia. It is safe and effective. During the liposuction procedure, the board certified physicians at Midwest Anti-Aging and Med Spa insert small, thin, blunt-tipped tubes through tiny, inconspicuous cuts in the skin. Fatty deposits in targeted areas are suctioned out of the body through these tubes. The procedure sculpts bulging areas to reveal more attractive contours.
Fat cells removed by liposuction do not grow back as long as the patient does not gain excessive amounts of weight. Liposuction can be very rewarding and many times it helps people live a healthier lifestyle. It is best recommended to eat healthy and exercise regularly following liposuction to ensure your results last a lifetime.

Body Sculpting uses a modified combination treatment solution. This is an advanced technique of permanently removing excess fat deposits in areas that are resistant to diet and exercise. It is called tumescent (which means to “swell”) because the physician fills and swells the fatty areas to be removed with large volumes of special solution before the procedure. This solution completely numbs the area due to the effect of local anesthetic, therefore general anesthesia or heavy intravenous sedation is not required. At the same time, a substance called epinephrine constricts the blood vessels, reducing bleeding to negligible amounts. Fatty deposits are then removed using small straw-like tubes called cannulas connected to a large bulb syringe.
It is called body sculpting because the trained physician is able to artistically sculpt the body into a new shape using delicate instruments. Besides the obvious increased safety of the procedure being performed totally under local anesthesia there are other significant benefits. You can cooperate with the physician by changing position so the areas can be more easily seen and multiple areas can be treated during the same session. Plus the finer instruments that are used in the tumescent body sculpting technique allow the physician to target specific areas with accuracy and control never before possible.
