Is This An Alternative To Surgery?

This treatment is a non-invasive procedure that requires no anesthetic or recovery time. There is no pain associated with the treatment that can target multiple body areas at the same time. Although this procedure provides great results, depending on your goals, this treatment may not be a replacement for surgery.

Is There Pain After The Treatment Session?

No. The treatment is completed without anesthetic and uses either heat or EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation), or a combination of the two to target specific areas. There may be mild soreness in the area of application felt a few days post-treatment (like a workout). There is absolutely no recovery period or downtime associated with our  InMode Treatments.

Patients can return to normal activities immediately after this non-surgical treatment. Redness and warmth in the treated areas are common, which will subside after a few hours.

How Long Before I See Results?

Gradual improvements in the treatment area can be seen following the first few treatments. It may take up to 6-8 weeks to see results and individual results will vary.
