Expect Wellness Offers New Cutting-Edge Treatment Options
Jul 30, 2018 04:44PM ● By Odell Williams
Rachel Hall, M.D., is excited to announce that she will soon have new esthetic offerings at Expect Wellness with the addition of two laser medical devices: SculpSure and TempSure. SculpSure is a breakthrough in noninvasive body contouring, designed to treat stubborn areas of fat that seem impossible to get rid of, even with diet and exercise, and TempSure encourages collagen production in the skin to tighten and reduce signs of aging.
The first laser, SculpSure, is able to target and destroy fat cells without surgery or downtime, and without affecting the skin’s surface. SculpSure’s nonsurgical 25-minute procedure uses light-based technology to permanently destroy up to 24 percent of treated fat cells in problem areas, such as the abdomen and love handles. Over time, these damaged fat cells are naturally absorbed and removed from the body, with results seen as quickly as six weeks, and optimal results typically seen at 12 weeks. Treated fat cells are destroyed during the treatment and will not regenerate.
SculpSure is ideal for people with trouble spots, particularly those that seem resistant to diet and exercise. Even with diet and exercise, many people have difficulty losing weight in these trouble areas. During the treatment, most patients feel a tingling sensation intermittently, which is generally well-tolerated. There is no downtime with SculpSure, so you can have the treatment during your lunch hour and return to work immediately.*
“We’re excited to offer this new noninvasive, targeted fat-reduction treatment for troublesome areas, like love handles, belly, even neck. SculpSure removes tough, unwanted fat effectively and efficiently, and is a great enhancement for our clients who have achieved great results through hard work to cultivate a wellness lifestyle but have stubborn areas they can’t seem to lose. Our patients will love their results and appreciate how quickly the procedure can be performed,” says Dr. Hall, the owner of Expect Wellness.
Expect Wellness’ second new offering is TempSure Envi, a new radiofrequency treatment that minimizes wrinkles and fine lines, tightens skin through soft tissue coagulation, and improves the appearance of cellulite. As we age, our body can’t generate collagen as fast as it used to. As a result, wrinkles and fine lines form, leaving you with smile lines, crow’s feet, and other bothersome creases. TempSure Envi is safe for all skin types and levels of sun exposure, so it fits perfectly into any beauty-maintenance routine, any time of year! There’s no surgery, no needles and no downtime, so you can immediately get back to what you were doing and look great doing it!
TempSure Envi delivers radiofrequency to gently heat your skin. Increasing your skin’s temperature for a defined therapeutic time will trigger your body’s natural reaction to produce new collagen. The new collagen fibers are tight and dense, leaving you with beautiful, younger-looking skin. TempSure Envi has been known to give an instant glow, resulting in a smoother appearance and younger-looking skin. Patients have reported that it feels similar to a relaxing hot stone massage. Slight redness may appear after the procedure, which is caused by the skin’s elevated temperatures during the treatment, and will subside soon afterward. You will be able to return to your normal day-to-day activities immediately after your treatment.
Additionally, TempSure Vitalia offers the same therapeutic heat to intimate areas that may have been affected by pregnancy and childbirth, and other hormonal fluctuations, including hormonal contraception use and menopause. The treatment improves blood flow and therefore helps reverse dryness and other signs of atrophy, as well as reduce incontinence. “This will be a great additional therapy for our bioidentical hormone replacement clients,” says Dr. Hall. If you have stubborn areas of fat, skin that could be tightened, vaginal dryness or incontinence, one or more of these treatments could be the right choice for you.

This plan will involve lifestyle modifications, complementary and alternative medical therapies, as well as conventional Western medical therapies, for a comprehensive plan to treat the patient as a whole. Evaluations include exploration of the health of the body, mind, emotions, environment, social structure and spiritual path, looking to achieve balance in all areas,” says Dr. Hall.
