4 Reasons Why Body Contouring NYC Spas Will be Popular in 2018

It’s been this way for years; New Yorkers compose one of the biggest markets for noninvasive beauty procedures. One of the fastest growing services is body contouring--a non-surgical approach to improve the shape and tone of fat and skin-supportive underlying tissue following a major weight loss. It also helps remove excess loose skin and sagging fat areas. There are a number of body contouring NYC spas in Manhattan that offer this service, and by the time 2018 rolls around these boutique spas are predicted to populate as quickly as gastropubs did 10 years ago. Here are four reasons why body contouring spas will be all the talk of the Big Apple in this upcoming year, and for years to come.



1.Body Contouring is Virtually Painless

Non-surgical body contouring is making a lot of buzz in New York and other parts of the world for being virtually painless. In the past, people who lost significant weight would go get a painful and invasive body lift from a plastic surgeon. But now with technologies like UltraShape Power and VelaShape III, people can achieve their desired body without undergoing the knife. Body contouring tightens the skin and destroys cellulite through infrared technologies and radio frequencies that sculpt the neck and face, tighten the abdominal region, and trim off arm and bra fat areas. Some body contouring patients report a warming sensation, and reports of pain are virtually non-existent.

2. Significantly Lower Risk

According to the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Journal, two patients die for every 100,000 outpatient surgical cosmetic procedures. This means your chance of plastic surgery death is higher than the probability you will experience a plane crash. In fact, two deaths to make international news included a former Miss Argentina winner and the mother of rapper Kanye West who died from complications after cosmetic surgery. Most of these deaths occur after the surgery is performed. In terms of non-surgical body contouring, there are zero deaths reported.

3. Virtually No Recovery Time is needed

Another reason why non-surgical body contouring is so popular in New York is that it doesn’t interfere too much with one’s busy daily life. While plastic surgery can lay one out for months, the non-surgical approach is so painless and quick that most working professionals get the treatments during their lunch breaks and get back to the office in time to make a coffee.

4. It Compliments Surgical Procedures

Although the fact remains that its main appeal is its non-surgical status, it nonetheless holds popularity as a solution to treating loose skin left over from gastric bypass surgery. Gastric bypass surgery causes rapid weight loss, and while most people are left with an ideal weight they are not happy with their body due to excess sagging. Because there is a significant number of patients who don’t want to have back-to-back surgeries, they will opt for non-surgical body contouring to correct the aftermath of their gastric bypass procedure.
